38 Best Cafes near Stinson Beach

“Best fish and chips I’ve had in a long time. Really cute place to stop. Would definitely recommend it!“

“Good for a quick bite. I like the local feel of the place but it can get very crowded, especially on the weekends so I'm glad for the outdoor tables. I like to stop by when I'm going to hang out near Ocean Beach. The food is tasty!“

“The best cappuccino in Marin hands down! Been going there for years -- the service has been consistently excellent and the pastries and cakes are quintessential Italian delicacies! Gary and Jeannie Rulli are the dedicated hands-on proprietors -- wonderful people and a blessing to our Larkspur community🥰!“

“Great food and service. Great presentation“

“Très bon accueil, produits de qualité, à recommander.“

“Solid sandwiches. I can’t speak to service or atmosphere because I ordered delivery but did enjoy what I ordered. I had the green dream with chicken added, and my wife an original and chia pudding. For my kids I ordered an Angelo, godfather, and bandiero.“

“Excellent, huge variety, fast. Ever since my partner and I discovered this place, this is our only boba stop! Ive taken my whole extended family here too; there's something for everyone..

One size of drink, but very customizable.“

“Sanaa Cafe offers an excellent selection of coffee, desserts, and delicious Fatayer. The atmosphere is truly unique, featuring authentic Yemeni architecture and Coffee. It is a perfect environment for productivity; it’s inviting, bring your laptop and work while enjoying a Sanaa Adani Chai or a Pistachio Mocha. I also highly recommend trying our delicious pistachio cheesecake.“

“Great coffee great service most of the time. People working there need to learn to communicate and let customers know when they are backed up so when they make an order, they understand how long it will take instead of letting them know after the fact.“

“I love the genuine service and the system they implement to try and give customers fast service without sacrificing quality. I love to order a Caramel Macchiato (not on the menu but they can make similar) with extra toasted blueberry bagels and cream cheese :)“

“All the in-house made items are amazing! Love this place! There is no day that isn’t made better by stopping here! 💗☕️“

“One of the most inspired chicken sandwiches I’ve had in my life…

This place is hanging in there despite being the only tenant in a now defunct medical building. What that means for you is:
✅ ample parking
✅ beautiful outdoor seating
✅ quality food / service“

“My go-to when I'm in town! Fantastic food and service. Highly recommend!“

“Wonderful spot! Their treats are delicious, coffee and other drinks are good. The Cortado or Pistachio Latte are my go to's. Also, a nice place close to home where I can go to get work done. Unlike other cafe's they stay open til 10pm!“

“This is a charming cafe with a sweet outdoor patio! What a hidden gem! The baked goods are amazing and homemade by Armida! They do homemade sandwiches to order, have savory and sweet baked goods! Try the bacon/egg/maple syrup bun or the veggie pocket! There is ample indoor space to sit and sip. There are also books and puzzles for bringing your child, and with the outdoor space, an ideal child friendly cafe for a bite to eat.
What a great neighborhood gem!!“

“This place has been a community bedrock for 20+ years. Always here for us. During covid lock downs, they set up their own food pantry (with the fridge getting electricity from the shop).

Churros are always a hit. Good coffee.
Come and enjoy.“

“I discovered Sour Kid Cafe via some reels that thought I might like it. They were correct. I got the egg, avocado, and cheese with spicy mayo. The egg was a good sort of compact scramble sandwich egg. Very good flavor, combined with the cheese and avocado and that spicy mayo.....ooooooh! So tasty! The chewy, but not too chewy, sourdough really rounds it out. Will definitely try more of the menu. Lots of good pastries and coffee as well. The interior was extremely clean, and the service was welcoming and friendly. Around the corner from Michael's Sourdough Sandwiches, and it's part of that sandwich family!“

“Got the Da Kine Greens which was full of flavor and healthiness and kale. While it was also a million dollars, being in this pseudo-hippie town full of reclusive wealthy people, it still was worth the snack. Would stop by again if back to charming Bolinas.5 stars!!!“

“If I could give 6 stars, I would.Fabulous little hole in the wall restaurant, outdoes any chain and several other small restaurants.If you order any dish that comes with tortillas, I highly recommend the corn tortillas. They are handmade and slightly thick, which is typical for Mexican or Guatemalan fare. They are extremely tasty and pair well with the chorizo and eggs combo, which is what I ordered.I got the rice and beans option which consisted of refried black beans and a Guatemalan rice that is similar to Mexican rice but has peas and tiny chopped carrot pieces along with the onion and tomato based sauce. I'm not really a big rice fan, but I would recommend this rice to those who are. It is not a heavy tomato sauce but rather colors it mildly red and adds just a little flavor.The refried black beans were a perfect consistency and had no chunks of beans. Definitely must try.The plate also had a generous side of crema, which a Latin style sour cream that is a little thinner than American sour cream and went well with my chorizo "tacos" that I made with the tortillas.A wonderfully mild Mexican cheese chunk was served on the side and lastly a restaurant made salsa that was mild in hotness and delicious in flavor was also served with the dish.The gentleman that served me was the proprietor and he was very gracious in his service to me. EXCELLENT customer service!The prices are in keeping with most restaurants, not overpriced, and the portions were a good size. Great value for money!I highly recommend dining at this restaurant when you're in San Rafael.“

“Great service, delicious spinach, cheese mini quiche on a flattened croissant. Ask them to toast it. Looks like excellent coffee. Real silverware, plates etc. Ambiance - Lots of light. I've only been once but I'll be back for sure. Breakfast, Brunch, Lunch, Snacks“

“My husband and I came here for breakfast before our hike in Muir Woods. Husband got the huevos rancheros with house potatoes which was really good! I got the Mexican scramble with hash browns and I think this was literally the best omelette I’ve ever had. I was so full for hours afterwards (and yes, even after the hike I barely had any room for anything else). Would highly recommend!

Also, the man and lady behind the counter were also very nice!“

“Fantastic bookstore, with amazing inventory, staff and cafe. One of my all time favorites.“

“The roast beef sandwich is in a class of its own, and the staff is very friendly. D.G. Cafe does it right and it's nice to have a high-quality lunch spot here in San Anselmo that isn't Comforts.“

“I picked up a sandwich to go. When I got home, I noticed the lunch was a chicken salad. I called the Cafe to let them know, Amy, the kitchen supervisor, was most gracious: she told me the next time I come in, the meals on them. To that I say cheers!“

“Servers are fun to talk with and to learn about the best treats!“

“Love this coffee shop. Nice sandwiches, easy ordering online. Quick in and out.“

“Lovely service; easy to find table; tasty food and juices and nice clean amenities. Would recommend and would go back if we were in the area. Also next to the floating houses in Sausalito - nice area and ambience.“

“Once again, I had a wonderful experience shopping at Sweetwater. Many thanks to Sales Engineer Mitch Dazey who did a great job. I'm glad that he was able to get a Korean made instrument. Competitive pricing, good discounts, excellent customer service, items thoroughly and carefully packed. I will definitively recommend anyone to shop at Sweetwater.“

“It was an amazingly flavourful brunch that my husband I shared for his birthday. We have both visited places in Los Angeles as well as Vancouver, Canada and this place is 2nd to none! A must check out! We will be back David and the crew! Cheers Aaryan and Nadya“

“Split rock just dropped Thai inspired smash pork tacos and they are incredible. I’m not a fan so I get it without that, but I had Sriracha and the flavor is just mind blowing best thing in Marin right now. Also if you come before five, Sterling’s serving beer and his knowledge of beer is amazing. He offers you testers to see if you’d like it and knows what everything tastes like. Definitely me and my wife’s favorite place right now.“

“I came in today randomly for the first time today from the pet store nearby. I was really hungry but didn't know what to do because I had my dog with me. I called and told the lady over the phone told her if I could place the order and if they could bring it out for me because I had my dog. She said, no don't worry, you come in and pay and leave it's okay. They have tile floor so it made sense and really I appreciated that I didn't have to go hungry. My tuna melt was tasty, but what really made my day was their freshly baked breads in different flavors sold by the slice, I got pumpkin, zucchini, and banana for my partner. Best store bought bread ever! Soooo delicious! I will be returning.I had a good experience with customer service.Anyway, I am a happy customer.“

“the most wonderful coffee I've ever had & was lucky to help at the roastary for a while until i had some shoulder issues doing production. besides that i still support Equator 500% they have the best coffee I've ever drank & continue to recommend their excellent coffee all the time & have subscriptions ☕“

“Always a wonderful to expierence to see artists you’ve admired all your life.“

“Best pancakes in Marin. Got to be one of the inspirations for American Graffiti, it is so classic.“

“Great breakfast (generous serving but not in a bad way), delicious food, very good service (fast, polite, caring), everything tasted fresh. Places like this should be preserved and patronized so they don’t get overrun by chain restaurants.“

“I was hungry. They fed me. Mom and pop shop right next to the water. Wonderful place to enjoy breakfast or lunch. I got the Avacado toast and to be honest it wasn’t fantastic but it was not bad. It was a better option than fast food when looking for a place to eat on our road trip. I would like to try some other things on the menu before saying the food is good or bad. But overall the place is really cute and I enjoyed the experience“

“Loukas is the best - an integral part of the community . Without Kosmos - we would be left with Boring Corporate Coffee .“

“Always a great experience start to finish. Management does a good job ensuring customers are happy and the staff is delivering good experiences.
Always love when Maddy is in the cafe she is very sweet and makes a great latte.
10/10 recommend based on staff, menu and location!“
