This coffee stand is in a super cute downtown area of Mountain View! Parking is a bit scary with…read morehaving to pull out/pull in while ongoing traffic is behind you but I've never struggled to find parking. I got the drink special recommended to me by the workers which was the Sana'a Latte. All drinks have the option to come iced or hot and they are paired with a small middle eastern cafe. Perfect to have a coffee and a meal! The beans were strong but not burnt and I loved the taste! They offered huge variety of latte flavors and syrups and many were unique. While seating inside/outside seems to be a bit limited I have also never seen all seats occupied. Would love to come back and try the food options and more coffee flavors and update my review as well!

I was looking for a building with the Sana'a cafe logo but passed it until I made a u-turn and just…read moredecided to park to look for it. Sana'a cafe is inside Mediterranean Grill restaurant. I saw the big signs that they were serving Sana'a coffee here. Someone was ordering before me and once it was my turn I was greeted warmly. I ordered the Sana'a light sweet whole milk. I took a seat and waited for my order. My order was ready pretty quickly and I took a big sip. Hold strong flavors of cinnamon, ginger, and cardamom. A strong coffee flavor as well. It was still very sweet for my liking. The service was warm and welcoming. The coffee was good. Curious to try what else is on the menu and the pastries. Parking is limited to what's on the street. Spacious seating area.

So I chose among wrapped bouquets. She was very kind to change the wrap from pink to blue without extra charge for me. I love the inside. It's a coffee shop / florist / nursery. It gives a very relaxed feel inside. I love this place.

We tried the matcha cold foam with pandan and the iced matcha latte ($6-8 a drink) with lemon poppy foam. They tape a little fresh flower on your drink too.

YAY! I didn't realize they were here. I've been to their Santa Theresa location which is quite far…read morefor me but when I'm in the neighborhood we definitely stop by. Nice location - lots of parking and we love to have found a Vietnamese coffee place. I typically get the egg coffee but decided to go with their new Peanut Butter Latte and I'm so glad I did. It comes already with oat milk which is perfect. I will say - for the large the ratio on cream to coffee was little off. I'd prefer less of the cream and more coffee but it was still delicious and refreshing - not too sweet and had a lot of the PB flavor. Hubby got the Pandan Matcha. He loved it - though it was a bit too sweet for him so he waited for the ice to melt a bit. Not sure if we could have adjusted the sweetness. Youngest got the Banana Latte and devoured it quickly. Fair to say I think she really enjoyed it! Nice that they are so close to us now. Will definitely be one of our go to for Vietnamese coffee!!

They source their beans from roasters....and the gal who helped me in the front I asked for a couple of recommendations for pour over drip....and the one she chose was way better than I expected! There is some seating in there and enough space outside as well to just relax and chill...I sat at the community table and enjoyed the coffee....I even had to go back the next day but I got a latte the next day.... I would definitely come back here if passing by or staying in Mountain View again...they do close quite early (5PM)....so I had to get a cup from Peets nearby and I told the guy I've been going there...and he even said Oh Yeah there coffee is good! Confirmed from another Barista!!!

I will forever hype up Covour. Yes, the lines can be annoyingly long, especially on weekends, but…read morethey're absolutely worth it. I've worked my way through both the permanent and seasonal menus, and I genuinely can't think of a bad drink I've had. The Einspänner on any drink is unmatched, but honestly, every drink has been so good that picking a favorite feels impossible. The pastries are just as impressive! Always fresh, scrumptious, and worth every calorie. I remember when you could walk right in without much of a wait, but influencers have definitely done their job putting special places like this on the map. My only real complaints? The weekend lines and the fact that a coffee shop opens at 8 a.m. Let me get my caffeine fix earlier! Still, this is an easy 5/5. The drinks and pastries are on another level, and the hype is completely deserved.

Craftsman and Wolves is a killer crafts bakery that makes the perfect Kouign-amann. The shop does many things including a signature bread pudding, small in size but big in flava. Measures maybe two and a half inches diameter, an inch thick. Packs a wonderful wowie punch with the seasonally ripe berries and fruit, plus a few pieces of specialty chocolate. My friend who knows from excellent pastries says the goods at C and W are special because the sugars in each item are balanced, not excessive. The goodies we sampled together were scrumptious. Somehow even my pedestrian palate senses that these dessert thingies are distinctive and of ultra quality. Ambiance-wise, it's a noisy place with a few tables lining the windows. You are elbow to elbow practically against neighbouring tables. I know I heard every syllable of the conversation going on to my right-hand side. I also knew it was Korean, so I couldn't successfully eavesdrop... boooooo. Very unique metallic artsy fashioned chairs make the space seem modern. There's merch in the corner and on a wall. You can get coffee drinks too. Service is excellent: the majestically tall staffer -- who I thought was manager but isn't -- was the kindest friendliest soul, very pleasant to chat with. Craftsman crew were mad busy, but always with smiles and ready to help customers. You won't find any bakery bites that are not delectable at Craftsman and Wolves. Kool yummy easy five stars.

I've always heard of their SF location but never had a chance to visit. I was pleasantly surprised…read moreto find a newer location in Mountain View in a pretty new apartment/retail complex. Small coffee shop sized with maybe seating for a dozen inside and a few small tables outside. I wasn't too familiar with their offerings, but I did know that it was chef driven and dedicated to quality. And in my short peek, I somewhat was able to confirm that. Drip Coffee (4*) Solid, bold and enough smoothness for me to want to savor it. Not as dark and roasty as Peets but good enough for me, especially to go with their delectable pastries. Kouign Amman (5*) I love B Patisserie's version that is flaky but saturated in buttery sugar, that I can only tolerate 1 of those at a time. Very rich and decadent. I have never seen a version quite like Craftmans and Wolves but that is what I found adoring. The exterior almost seems fried like a doughnut/cronut but totally not sure. It kinda had that bubbled exterior but not blatantly obvious. And there was just enough sugar cooked into it that it made it stealthy sweet, I'd say easily half the amount of sugar as B Pâtisserie's. Not that I would eat 2 of these in one sitting, but I easily could. Croissant Pudding (5*) They do these tiny mini bread puddings that can be heated up. We chose it as is, room temp and it was still fantastic. They use croissants as the 'bread' so it isn't as dense as a regular bread pudding. But their custard to bread ratio was masterful and this version (think they change the variations often) has burst of fresh raspberry and chunks of Dulce which is like a caramelized/browned white chocolate made by Valrhona. (I had to look that ingredient up as I never heard until now.) And to take alternate bites between the flaky and unique Kouign Amman and the creamy and slightly dense pudding with sips of quality black coffee, just initiated me an avid fan of Craftsman and Wolves. Seriously smacks!

This location of Alexander's Patisserie is located in downtown Mountain View. Parking is a bit hit…read moreor miss here, you can try your luck with street parking or park in the nearby parking garage. Exterior and interior is modern and sleek, which is nice. I originally came here specifically for their Matcha Croissant, but I noticed the Matcha Flat Croissant on their menu, so I ordered both to try. Their Matcha Croissant was decent, but I felt like it did not taste as fresh and the matcha ganache inside was good, just a bit on the bitter side and there was a bit too much of it that it was overpowering. Their Matcha Flat Croissant tasted dry and stale, and the matcha chocolate it was dipped in tasted more like chocolate than matcha. Overall, it was good to try one time, but I do not think I would be back for these items.

Parking: free, street parking…read more Maison Alyzée has two locations : Mountain View and Burlingame. Founded in 2018 by Lyon native Laurent Pellet. Fun fact: Alyzée" is the name of the owner's daughter. It boasts marble counters, bistro-style tables, and outdoor seating on Castro Street to mimic the South of France. The owner recruited pastry chefs who relocated from France specifically for this endeavor. They also have monthly flavor, for example for May 2026: "Strawberry Bliss" cake. I totally recommend: mixed berry tart, coffee eclairs. The cakes and pastries are on the higher end price, perfect to surprise someone's birthday or special occasion or even to brighten your day with high quality artisan bakeries goods.

Really lovely French style patisserie with a variety of flavors and textures of pastries and cakes!…read more One of my go to's for higher end cakes during special occasions :D Owners and chefs and staff are all very sweet and accommodating and you can tell they genuinely love their craft and sharing it with the community! They have rotating seasonal items and also accept ordering larger cakes through online orders or by calling in! Their 100% pistachio cake is amazing - not too sweet and the pistachio flavor really comes through but doesn't overpower. Very creamy texture that isn't too heavy and has a fun, crunchy outer shell. The matcha raspberry is also nice and balanced - matcha flavor complements well with the raspberry gel / jam inside and is mellowed out by the cream. Inside is very chic and great place to chat and catch up over a cup of coffee and even get some work done - water station and wifi is inside.
