As for food/drink offerings, the cinnamon morning bun was satisfyingly crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and although I didn't notice much of the banana flavor in the funky monkey mocha, it was still a soothing mocha. Cozy cafe vibes!

The owners of Majestic Cafe took over just around a year ago, and they also own Rainbow FroYo and Double Rainbow Cafe. Based on how wonderful their dessert shops are I knew I was in for a treat! The cafe is a nice, large place that has both a casual and classic feel to it. It has pictures on the walls of old downtown Benecia. You order at the counter and the staff is cheerful and helpful. They have a wonderful selection of coffee drinks, both seasonal and non-seasonal. I got to try a few of them. The major standout to me was their Jalapeño mocha. I know it sounds crazy, but whatever they do here works beautifully. Its flavor profile has both spicy and sweet chocolate to it that I've never had in a mocha before. Also, the spice level is not bad. It's just a little kick of spice! I also tried their gingerbread latte and their butterbeer latte. The butterbeer is very sweet with a strong butterscotch flavor. I loved it! Their gingerbread latte was the perfect amount spices and sweetness as well. For food, I tried the breakfast burrito with the chili verde and their avocado toast. Both were exactly what I wanted and were delicious. I will definitely be returning to Majestic Cafe the next time I'm in Benecia.

The space is pretty large. There's seating outside as well as a loft upstairs. It seems like people will come here to do a little work and studying as well. I came here a few times when I was working in the area. The first time I got the ham and butter sandwich on baguette since you can pretty much tell if you're gonna like the bakery based on that classic. On another visit, I got the focaccia salami sandwich. Both sandwiches were excellent. I also got a few pastries to go like a lemon meringue tart and a chocolate/ hazelnut torte. I also bought a few other breads to take home to my family. I honestly was pleased with everything I've gotten from there. I'm blessed with some pretty great bakeries where I live, but this is a place that you would wish is close to you as well.

My book club often meets here to discuss our recently read books while we chat away and enjoy all the yummy snacks they have to offer. I offer will grab a loaf of fresh baked bread and homemade jam to share with our group and it never disappoints there are so many seasonal jams to try I always have a hard time narrowing it down but all of them have been so tasty. The back patio is perfect to hold out meetings as it is big enough to fit us all and the vibe is just perfect! Lots of comfy seats with pillows and hand knitted blankets in case you get chilly! Try it out you won't be disappointed.

Drift in my eyes is our towns little European cafe…read more If you need a tasty light bite, this is the place to go. We recently went here for pizza but we've been here plenty of times. I know one of the owners would post pictures of herself in Europe before they established themselves on 1st street. When we were in Barcelona a couple of years ago there was a bakery that reminds me so much of this cafe. So that's why I think about Europe anytime I go here. I've never had a bad pizza here. My favorite pasty here is the Conchiglia. It's this buttery and flakey pastry that has this special Italian cream in it. It's the best thing there. You won't be disappointed. Also...I could be wrong but I also think they still have a wine and pizza deal on Farmer's Market Days(Thursday).

The vibe is super chill, with locals stashed at their corner, but there's plenty more room for sitting. They get Noah's bagels for their bagels, and have some burritos made by a local vendor. The owner Sam is super chill, ask him about why it's called Rrags! OH and the reason why I come here so often other than because it's a local coffee shop and everyone should be supporting local businesses is that they are the ONLY spot in Benicia that makes a Vietnamese coffee fantastically. You won't regret it!

Mimi had a great dish of latkes with cream cheese, avocado, smoke salmon and house made pickled onions - she loved it and ate every bite. "It changed my feeling about how to eat Lox... absolutely delicious and the exact right amount too," said Mimi. I had the Breakfast plate with great bacon, potatoes, two eggs over easy and great toast and homemade strawberry jam. It was such a good plate of food,. I had a side of sausages patties, but really didn't need them. Overall, the experience was great, and the food was delicious. We will definitely be back.

The Grilled Steak Salad was exceptional with exquisitely fresh greens and nice portions of grilled steak. Such a wonderful family Sunday experience for food, drink, service and ambiance. Well done.

Also some of the best chai I've had around here. For the health conscious people - they have a berky water system, organic oat milk, hemp milk, and more. Much appreciated!
