“Apparently this shop opened in September, but if you didn't know that, it would be easy to think that it was a pandemic-inspired business. I've been wondering lately how I could take my little girls out for a treat sometime without taking them inside a shop. Then I learned about the Village Corner. It's a tiny little corner of a shop and currently functions as a to-go window. The door is roped off and the owner takes your order from the other side of the rope and hands it to you. And with Ross Common right there, it's easy to find somewhere to hang out to eat your snack. I think they have a variety of snack items, but there big seller is probably the Lappert's ice cream. We got ice cream cones and the owner was flawless in her contact-free presentation. She scooped the cones without touching ice cream or cones and then placed them in a cone holder so that there was no chance of contact between her and the customer.“

“This place is truly a diamond that doesn't get enough attention! We have been coming to World Green Acai since they have opened 4 years ago. Authentic Acai is hard to find and World Green does not disappoint!This is not a fast food restaurant. The care and effort to make high quality authentic Brazilian food is the ethos of the owners. Have patience and you will be rewarded with a delicious unique and authentic Brazilian food experience.It's true that folks travel from all over the Bay Area just to experience the food and environment of World Green Acai.“

“Hidden gem! Everything is delicious and the space is lovely. Open, airy, welcoming (they even offer a tray of tiny hearts!), easy parking, and right next to the trail head for the lovely Hamilton portion of the SF Bay Trail. A fabulous spot for grab and go, dine in, or take out. I've been back two days in a row and very happy with my orders. Today's vegan Caesar salad + lemon mascarpone cheesecake were divine! Another nice thing is that if you fall in love with the food, you can also hire them for catering!“

“I love the Pump Espresso Bar. Love it. In fact, if I was lucky enough to work from home, I would work from the Pump. The inside is super cute, and it is oddly calming as soon as you walk in. This is saying a lot as I am one of the most high strung, overly driven humans and calm is not in my vocabulary. Lots of great coffee options, and they are all so good! The barista that helped us last time was fantastic and I want to give her all the kudos. She let me taste test their pumpkin syrup and she mentioned that they make it in house. I ended up going with the cardamom latte which seems to be the only drink I get at the Pump Espresso Bar. I keep telling myself to branch out and try a different beverage.Lots of food options that look delicious. The Pump Espresso Bar is always busy and it is such a welcoming local business that I am more than happy to give my business to.“

Firehouse is a Local's gem. 1) Delicious coffee options for all your cravings. 2) Great lounge seating whether you're visiting with an old friend or looking for a spot to post up and work remotely. 3) Rotating collection of artwork on the walls supporting local artists. It is evident DJ goes above and beyond to curate a unique experience for his customers! Firehouse coffee is a must visit for all looking to feel the pulse of the wonderful town of Sausalito.“

“From the time we sat down to the time we left... all the servers were very nice and attentive. The food was so flavorful. The calamari was small piece but it overfilled the plate. The fish and chip have some of the best seasons I ever had.Will definitely come back if I am in the area again.“

“I feel like I've tried all the coffee in Marin, Fox and Kit keeps me coming back. They pour the most consistent shot, and with smiles on their faces. They even have amazing French pastries and other goodies. But beware, there are .....MANY children there on rainy days! It might take a bit longer to get a coffee on those days but well worth it.“

“This place is the best and I hope they never close! I grew up in the area but now live out of the country and my family has relocated to the east bay but I still make the 60 min drive all the way to Jelly Donut whenever I come to visit them. The owners are super friendly and generous, often throwing in an extra freebie too. We've tried 4 other donut shops in the east bay and none are even close to as good as these. Long live Jelly Donut!“

“Red Whale has brought hipster coffee to San Rafael. If you are a coffee aficionado and you haven’t been here yet, you need to be. I love a good latte and Red Whale does not disappoint. Their lattes can easily hang with the likes of Blue Bottle and Equator. And if you are a drip coffee or cold brew person, these guys look legit. They have a wall of glass equipment dedicated to making cold brew (it’s worth going just to see that wall!).There has been as much thought put into the space as they have put into their coffee - with a room dedicated to coffee paraphernalia and a lounge room equipped with a seating area, record player and vintage pinball machines. One thing to note is if you’re in a rush, you may or may not get your coffee quickly. Sometimes the regulars like to chat up the baristas which can slow things down a bit but the coffee is definitely worth the wait.“

“Went for a morning drive to Sausalito from San Francisco. I hadn’t been to this town in ages & wanted to revisit this charming town. I googled places for breakfast & Fred’s looked promising so we headed there. There’s a small shared parking lot next to the cafe & plenty of street parking.It’s a small cafe with some outdoor seating & it was pretty busy on Saturday morning. We were seated at a large shared table with two other people. They didn’t mind & neither did we. Extensive menu- I’d read the most popular items are the lemon ricotta pancakes, egg plate with sweet bacon, deep fried French toast & the Swedish, but looking at fellow customers plates who’d ordered some of the dishes, I decided I could not eat such large portions! I went for the single berry waffle & my husband ordered the veggie omelette. The waffle was delicious; only wish the syrup they served was realMaple syrup. I don’t eat the fake stuff so I skipped it. The omelette was very nice & came with toast & hash browns. We had ordered cappuccino & laughed when we saw the size of the “cup” - almost like a mini bathtub! I’m fussy about my coffee & this one just ok.Overall, a nice little place to enjoy breakfast before walking down to the marina & town center.“

“If you’re looking to get some yummy fresh boba tea then choose Teaspoon! I was impressed for my first time here.Drinks: The boba teas were fresh and light. They both tasted just right, not too sweet, and with great flavors. We tried the taro milk tea and the dirty ube and we would highly recommend both!Atmosphere: It was a charming little place with indoor and outdoor seating available. The place wasn’t too crowded as well and staff were friendly and welcoming.Price: Normal price for these quality drinks! You get what you pay for.Parking: Parking is found in the parking lot area outside of the many shops/restaurants. You don’t have to pay for it either.“

“12 years ago I visited San Francisco, cycled across the bridge with friends and sat here and had sandwiches. When people ask where I had the best sandwich in my life, I say it was this place. And despite being from Manchester UK, I'll be going back.“
“Rock Club catered my husband's retirement party. Easy to communicate with, flexible & arrived early to set up for event. Their burgers, fries & onion rings were awesome & EVERYONE raved about them. My husband is still talking about how delicious they were today. I am sure I will be getting many texts asking for their info. Thank you again so much!!“

“Best ice cream in Sausalito IMHO. I’ve been here about five times and I always look forward to it. Any of the coffee flavored ice creams are great, but my personal favorite is the Oregon Cherry one. Expect Sausalito prices, but worth it. Great when you’re waiting for the ferry!“
“The owner Cindy is the best barista I’ve met she loves to see customers happy with every cup of coffee she makes for them. She loves to have everything done with perfection and, let me say that’s what makes Bean Crema & Tea my favorite spot for coffee. They also, have very reasonable prices compared to other places and the best thing is that their pastries are home made, on top of that! they are very delicious. The atmosphere is great and makes me feel comfortable.“

“Looking for a coffee to go in the area we ended up in shoreline coffee shop. As we were walking towards the Cafe we preceived the aromas of the food coming to us and inviting us to stay and eat. The food was good and freshly cooked. It's a traditional breakfast place. It was sunny enough to sit outside. Coffee was good.“

“Great cafe, went here to and from the north coast and it was fantastic! I will definitely stop here again next time I'm in Marin.A heads up though if you park on the street nearby with meters, I had the city parking enforcement ticket me 10 minutes before my meter actually ran out and I had no proof because I used quarters, so either use a credit card or take a photo of your meter...“

“This review is essentially a 3.5/5, but i rounded up. It is based on ordering one cortado to go. The espresso is the only thing keeping it from being a 3.Milk steam quality, 3/5. The temperature was a bit on the warm side but not overly hot. The milk was just slightly too thin. Even for a cortado I like a bit more air in the milk, not to the consistency of a cappuccino, but the cortado shouldn't taste slippery.Espresso quality, 5/5. I'm not sure what is in their espresso blend, but it stands up to milk really well. It's malty and nutty, but not overly roasted.Ambiance, 3/5. Just average. Trying to be both a deli/sandwich shop and a coffee shop. It's not a place I necessarily would want to come camp out and work in for too long, but it could be a decent spot for lunch. However, there's a lot of people always mulling about, waiting for to go drinks, etc., so it feels busy.Service, 3/5. Neither overly hospitable or hostile. Just average.“

“If you are looking for somewhere to buy delicious coffee beans, stop by the new coffee at 1208 4th St. I hate to say it, but their decaf beans that I use for cold brew is better than anything. Peet''s offers. Strong and smooth! The family that works here is very sweet, and the teenager was polite and positive. I will come back soon when I can hang out and drink their pumpkin spice brew or try one of the delicious baked goods. Also know if they have outdoor seating if you have a puppy“

“I had never tried a Thai iced coffee before, so I figured that I'd give this place a shot! I was liked in and got my drink quickly. It was delicious and priced competitively for it being a special coffee drink. I'll definitely be by to try it again soon.“

“I can't speak highly enough about this place. I used to go here fairly often in the mornings, but I moved several years ago and had been jonesing for their coffee. I recently ordered 2 bags of beans: my previous favorite, the Astral Blend, and one I hadn't yet tried, Hakrz Delight. My GOODNESS the Hakrz blend is amazing. Boldness of a dark roast with the complexity of something much lighter, this may be my new #1 all time.Regarding the service here, when I placed my order, I got a phone confirmation (sorry, I can't remember who called) and she was such a sweetheart. She let me know when my order had just finished roasting, and had it packed and shipped immediately.I'm sharing my coffee with my whole office and everyone agrees, this blend is wonderful.“

“Fast service. I was in the area for an early morning appointment and stopped in here for coffee and a bagel. I ordered the BLT bagel with no tomaties. It was satisfying and delicious. Their menu had plenty to offer. The service was great. They had heavy traffic which is a good sign in my opinion.“
“I am a huge fan of Republic of Tea. First, their tagless tea bags keep very well in the plastic free containers they come in (take that boxed Celestial) - they don't lose their potency quickly and at about 25 cents a tea bag (50 bags at $12 a can or so) it is extremely economical to make your own iced tea at home. I'm able to buy their cans in store, or (as I've been doing lately) direct from their website. Shipping turnaround time is a bit on the long side, however it comes packed like a tank and I love that I can re-use the tea containers for other types of teas from smaller companies (like Classy Hippie). All in all, I'm a big fan of the volume of selections on their page and they're very easy to order from. In fact, I think I'm going to buy a few more cans right now!“

“One of the best coffees I’ve had in years. This is the stuff of why coffee is so delicious - not that horror inducing brown water in most places across America.Had the cold brew shaken with cream, and no sweetener. Coffee flavor shone, and perfectly complemented by the richness of the cream (which I understand is house made and certainly tastes like it). Gluten free financier was also delicious and perfect size for a snack.“

“This quaint -hippie- modern coffee shop is too cute! Last time I was here there was a musician playing, and I love their organic coffee options! I was the first costumer in line and the Barista was very patient with me, since I can never figure out what I want to drink and I ended up getting a specialty espresso drink. Hee. Plus all their sweets and even gluten free items. Hee. I always stop by here when I'm in the area.“

“This cafe has staying power...has been open for many years. I recently started having weekend breakfast there, but the woman working behind the counter on Saturdays is not very welcoming: stone-face, no smile, no intentional eye contact and no greeting. Big turnoff. Think I'll venture to a more friendlier venue on Saturdays“

“When I went there, they had no lines and the churros were only $2.84 for 3 churros. They were very kind to me and quick to serve. I was craving for churros and started searching. Lo and behold, there is a churro restaurant just exclusively churros set aside sandwiches and smoothies but now I know there is a churro place when I am craving for churrosParking: Good luck finding a place to park as their parking lot is a shared lot.“

“THIS IS SPECIFICALLY FOR THE DRIVE-UP IN DOWNTOWN NOVATO. I go here every morning before work. It's great. The baristas are super nice and very friendly. Coffee is very, very good. I honestly think I like the seasonal flavors at Marin Coffeen Roasters more than Starbucks'. The toasted marshmallow lattee is to die for. Its not candy coffee like Starbucks. Marin Roasters strikes a perfect balance between flavor and coffee, so youre still tasting coffee as well as flavoring. Pastries are also surprisingly good. Coffee is the same price as Starbucks.As far as "atmosphere", I go to the South Novato Blvd location which is a drive-up so there isnt really much atmosphere to be had to begin with which is why my atmosphere rating is 3 stars, but its still pretty cute. Do NOT take the 3 stars for atmosphere as a negative, its literally just because this specific location is a drive up building. The coffee place before them was also a drive up. The building they happen to occupy is specifically designed for drive up coffee. Also, they take walk-up orders and have dog treats. I don't know why they wouldn't do walk-up, but its still worth mentioning cause you can grab a coffee and a treat for your dog if you're on a walk.The Ignacio and San Anselmo location however ARE sit down cafes, but I've never been there. Judging by pictures, they look very nice and are the place you want to go to if you want to sit down and aren't just picking up coffee and a pastry to goTLDR the coffee is fantastic, I like it more than Starbucks, and the people are great. Go there. Support local and enjoy some of the best coffee in town.“
“It's all about the service here. The point of drive-thru coffee is convenience, right? (And coffee). And somehow Java Hut managed to make this convenience even more convenient. I drove up for the first time the other day. I had maybe one or two cars ahead of me. And an employee (or maybe even the owner) came up to my window to take my order, then brought it out and took my cash before I even made it to the order window! And on top of that, he gave me a dog treat for my dog, who was sitting in the passenger's seat. And not your run-of-the-mill milk bone, but a real, meaty jerky treat. I try to find places with walk up windows, since I pretty much always have my little dog with me (plus I still avoid bringing my not-yet-eligible-for-vaccination 3 year old to indoors spaces), so I was particularly pleased to see that Java Hut also has a walk-up window with pleasant looking covered patio seating. Coffee is Starbucks equivalent, I think, so not, say, Equator or Ritual, but a nicer, more pleasant, convenient, and local experience than Starbucks. And we enjoyed the scone!“
“Demerit to the location for being out of both Italian and French roast, but a real positive shout out to new employee Scott. He bent over backwards to resolve the situation, looking upstairs, then calling the nearest Peet's in Tiburon. Thanks for trying, Scott!“

“I was in San Francisco last month for GDC, and I stopped in at this Starbucks almost every morning on the way to the Moscone Center. The place was always packed with a long line of customers waiting, but the staff was pleasant and professional. They never seemed to get flustered by all the orders, and I always got a hot coffee and tasty breakfast sandwich quickly.The front counter was usually run by a young man with bright dyed hair. I'm sorry I didn't get his name, but he was very professional and helpful. Thanks to the great staff here, they helped make the convention a great experience!“

The unstable person was rude and hostile back to the workers but the staff was not phased and handled the situation appropriately. Just want to say thank you and you are doing a great job.“

The hollandaise was smooth and tasty, the avocado was abundant, plenty of spinach and I loved the toasted sourdough (in place of a regular muffin.)

We're definitely going back for more.“
