We were visiting from MO, my favorite part of my entire vacation was walking up to the shore of Tiburon and ordering a Mocha and a breakfast pastry. We tried the chocolate croissant, butter croissant, ham and cheese, panini, and an omelette. Every single food item, every single coffee, every interaction across all 4 days was magical. Sitting on the benches out front watching the fog roll across the city across the Bay, looking at Angel Island, watching the Ferry, and enjoying my the ambiance of the town around us every morning was absolutely amazing. Cafe Acri made my entire vacation wonderful with their friendly, efficient, and delicious location. read more

A Local Hub, But Not Quite My Cup of Matcha Parking was my first little hurdle. There's no direct parking, so I ended up in the Cinema Lounge lot and paid about $8-9. I know Sausalito is used to paid parking, but in the rest of Marin it always feels slightly... offensive. Especially in the rain. And yes -- it was raining cats and dogs, which made the walk over less than charming, though not unbearable. When you search "coffee shop Tiburon," this is what comes up, so it does feel like the local hub. The place was fairly full when I arrived, which is always a promising sign. Service, however, felt distracted. The person at the register seemed far more engaged with teammates than with customers. I asked about the soup of the day and was met with a kind of aloof indifference that made me immediately regret asking. Not rude -- just uninterested. There's a difference. I ordered a matcha. It arrived in a glass with a cardboard sleeve -- which I will never understand. Why are we serving hot matcha in clear glasses? It's not chic. It's just awkward. Unfortunately, it was also very bad. I didn't drink it. My friend's latte was also disappointing, though at least it came in an actual latte cup. She did love her scone, so that's a point in their favor. I circled back to the soup of the day (zucchini). It was solid, comforting enough for a rainy afternoon, though the bread on the side was a little stale -- which felt unnecessary at a $35 total bill for two people. The pricing overall was reasonable for Marin. The space itself is slightly cold temperature-wise, but aesthetically it has that "a little worn-in" charm. Not polished. Not precious. Just... there. It's new to me, though it doesn't feel particularly new or differentiated. Would I rush back? Probably not. I wouldn't choose it as a meeting spot, especially when there are places like Amalfi Deli or Café Brulé nearby. I do appreciate that it's in that sweet Tiburon pocket -- it should be the kind of place you want to love. I'm just not sure it quite delivers the warmth or memorability that makes you return. I'm still on the hunt for a non-chain Tiburon coffee spot with a little more heart. Rustic near Point Tiburon is reliable (and local-ish), but I'm craving something with more personality. read more

We had a good time here. Coffee was fine, but the ambiance is perfect for a little stop on your tiburon day trip. Price to performance is decent. Would come back if needed something quick and simple on a road trip. We got a turkey sandwich, an omelette and some coffee Turkey sandwich - surprised me I loved the fontina cheese on this. Had a nice bite to it. Omelette - really good and fresh. Packed with veggies. read more

Popular spot with bicyclists as located next to the Tiburon and Angel Island Ferries. I've only visited for coffee and pastries: bomboloni and pistachio cheesecake as they both looked and sounded yummy. :: Cream custard bomboloni was not...interior was dry and had texture of scrambled eggs :: Pistachio cheesecake - I'm a big fan of rich, creamy cheesecake and this didn't do it for me as it was more of a no-bake cheesecake - soft and pudding like. Flavorful but not what I was expecting. Lattes are nice and service ok. Will try their savory offerings in the future. Located in Downtown Tiburon with plenty of street and lot parking. read more

Lovely cafe by the water! We ordered hot matcha lattes while enjoying the view and calming atmosphere of the cafe. It's such a great place to decompress. On a weekday afternoon, there were just a few people hanging out, on video calls, and chattering. The noise level wasn't too loud though. read more

Charming place! We had a big meal in the area and walked around a little. We were cold and still had time before the ferry, so we ducked in here for some coffee. It is a lovely, clean spot and the staff were extremely friendly. We enjoyed it so much, we stayed longer and had some gelato. read more

Their pear sorbet is PHENOMINAL! Very true taste, not too sweet or artificial-tasting. We came at a busy time but the worker still let us to try a couple of flavors before deciding. Plenty of seating both inside and outside. I absolutely love the huge windows that let in the Tiburon sunlight and people-watching opportunities! We chose to eat our sweet treats outside and enjoy the fresh air. If I take another day trip to Tiburon, I'll definitely come back! read more

We were thrilled to find a restaurant that could seat us right away for Saturday prime-time breakfast during a huge wine event. We were able to walk right up to the window, place our order, and grab a seat--so easy! Even better, the prices were about half of what the other nearby breakfast and brunch spots were charging. We ordered the vegetarian omelet, which was perfectly cooked and full of flavor, and the breakfast burrito with sausage--absolutely delicious. The coffee was excellent, too. Highly recommend this spot for a relaxed, tasty, and affordable breakfast! read more

We were really looking forward to trying this place and even drove a good distance to check it out. When we arrived, the staff let us know they were closed, even though the hours online showed they were open. I understand if the hours of service changed, but updating the online hours would help customers avoid making a trip for nothing. read more

I was recommended this place by a close mentor, and I am so happy we went. He said the gelato here was amazing, and I didn't believed it until I tried. And this is, by a landslide, the best gelato I have ever had. It is a small cafe, and it is very cozy. We were able to try a few flavors and decided to get Nocciola and Pistachio Gelato. Our server said nocciola was his favorite too! The gelato was thick and so nutty. The hazelnut and pistachio really shine through, and the gelato was not too sweet. It was honestly a perfect bite and the texture was creamy and chewy. I loved this place and will continue to come again. read more

My family and I came here for breakfast. The location has a small ocean view, which was nice, but overall the shop itself felt pretty average. The coffee wasn't very impressive, and the pastries were just okay. The prices were reasonable for what they offered. The only thing that really stood out was the barista's attitude. We ordered different types of coffee, and since they were served in plain glasses without labels, I asked which one was which. Her response wasn't very friendly--she seemed irritated, which made the interaction a bit uncomfortable. read more

The gelato was quite delicious, but I believe there is room for improvement in the service. When ordering ice cream or beverages to get at the cafe, I expected to receive them in a regular cup or a glass, especially for dessert or Pellegrino. However, I was informed that they serve coffee in paper cups and plastic containers, even when served on-site. I think addressing this could enhance the overall experience, specially when a 20% tip read more

If I opened a cafe this would be it. Fresh squeezed orange juice, grapefruit juice, beet juice, smoothies, Gelato, coffee, pastries....it's everything I've ever wanted in a cafe. Their pumpkin cheesecake is almost as good as the Cheesecake factory. The fresh juices were amazing. We bought one of each and also bought their smoothies. Their homemade scones are also good and they have affogato which is also my favorite. I wish all cafes had their selection and quality. Really was my favorite thing in Tiburon. Just leave me at the Cafe and I'll be happy. read more

Morning walk from our hotel never tasted so good. My cousin and I had coffee and pastries here every morning and gelato at night while on a weekend trip to Tiburon. It's a cozy little cafe that serves food, pastries, coffee and gelato. The cafe mocha was so delicious so was the blueberry muffin. The service was not the friendliest but not too bad either. The ambiance is great with both indoor and outdoor seating. Check it out if you are in the area. read more

We stopped in without having a real plan after a subpar lunch experience and NEEDING something sweet. The chocolate mousse called to meeeee and my kiddo was mesmerized by the tiramisu. He's 5 so couldn't appreciate how well done the tiramisu is compared to others. It's expertly created so it's still bouncy and not overly wet like some places. They take care to preserve each slice and this chocolate mousse is INSANELY GOOD If you like chocolate and a little crunch, you must indulge. The coffee is hot, the staff is kind, and it's mellow and shady inside which is ideal after being sun-soaked for the past 2 hours. read more

What a cute cafe! My friend and I wanted to grab a quick dinner before watching a movie at Cinelounge Tiburon so we walked around and found Caffe Acri. It looks like they have a real great outdoor patio space, but since it was a rainy, gloomy day, we opted to eat inside. We stopped by during that weird time frame where it's too late for lunch but too early for dinner so there weren't a lot of people. We were able to order at the counter immediately before finding a seat. From there, we were served directly at our table. We got a couple of coffees and they were pretty good - nothing spectacular but not bad either. For food, we split everything family style. The beef meatballs were delicious - 1 order comes with 4 meatballs and 3 pieces of bread along with lots of sauce. It was a nice meat to enjoy with our penne arrabiata. The penne arrabiata was a good healthy portion too. We also ordered the caesar salad; pretty much what you'd expect except it came with a lot of cheese. Overall, solid meal. Along with dinner foods, they also have some pastries/baked goods, wines, and gelato. The ambiance of the restaurant was nice too, though a little dark. It might've been because we came during that "in-between" time so it seemed like maybe they were gearing up for a dinner service and changing the lights, table set up, etc. read more

Open "early" by Tiburon standards at 7am, so I appreciate them for that. Didn't have any nibbles, but stopped in for a few teas. Fairly quick and convenient to the center of town. Indoor and outdoor seating. 2024: 68/100 read more

A solid avocado toast and smoothie. Being one of the few coffee shops in town and at a perfect location, you could see why there were so many bicyclists here to stop over for a drink and bathroom break. After a quick perusal of bakery items, we went simple with a iced coffee, avocado toast, and a strawberry banana smoothie. I know I'm spoiled now with my avocado toasts since we make them at home all the time, so admittedly, this one was a bit disappointing for me. While the bread was really good, the avocado was the perfect amount of ripeness, and it had a sprinkle of salt and pepper, it felt like it could have used one more topping - either some microgreens, or a zhuzh of extra seasoning or maybe a dash of olive oil. My partner enjoyed the coffee, and I liked the smoothie as well. Not overly sweet, good texture, and refreshing and filling. This was a great place for a pick-me-up, with a surprise piano-bicyclist tickling away at the keys. After his songs were done, he walked/clicked away on his bike shoes, which was a funny but pleasant surprise. read more

Came here for a quick bite while watching the Sunrise in Tiburon. I expected more offerings for pastries. Just crescent morning sandwiches to be microwaved. Bought a banana bread wrapped in plastic wrap just to get something in my stomach. Edges burnt and it was dry. As for service, the guy behind the counter didn't give a care. Not even a thank you for coming in since we were the 1st customer of the day. I guess he didn't have his morning coffee yet. Will not come back... read more

The location is everything. The vibe is great. The menu is a nice size and we found our choices straight away. The service was meh. Just not that great, sadly. The food came out quickly. We had homemade apple turnover. Sadly it was cold. And the only way to heat was microwave which kinda mushes the flaky exterior. We also had a cappuccino and a chai latte. For the price and location I had expected some design on the cappuccino, but there was none. Which, honestly is a bummer. The chai latte was hot but the spices just weren't there for me. Parking is available around the corner. Paid only. read more

great coffee, great service & good views!! had an iced latte and avocado toast and both were great

I feel ripped off. Paid almost $5 for this small gelato (we got 3) and this was how much was filled. This is before I took a bite! I mean you can see the bottom of the cup. Never been to any ice cream place that is this stingy. After seeing other people's gelato pictures and how much it was filled, it seems to be that the workers are racist. At first he told me they don't do samples, then said "what do you want to try?" and gave us samples. Customer service was very mediocre, as was the gelato. Not coming back here again and I'm surprised they're even able to have their business running still with that attitude. read more

FLIES FLIES FLIES !!!!!! There are a disgusting amount of flies everywhere throughout the restaurant, and at least several on every table, in the food , landing on top of everybody's plates of food and clusters of them flying around in the air. I ordered an omelette and there were three flies buzzing my plate nearly at all times . I couldn't eat it . The management does nothing to mitigate the flies and just shrugs their shoulders when you point it out. The manager said "there's nothing we can do about it." This is a massive sanitation and health problem. They're absolutely is something. This restaurant can do about it, they just refuse to try. read more

WHEN: Sat @11am PARKING: There's a decent amount of free street parking but it's limited to 2 hours. We were looking for a cafe to work at that had outdoor seating. It's nice that there is plenty of it here and it's all in shade. But unfortunately it's a cold day and there's no heater. So layer up! Here's what I had: HOT TEA - $3.50 So cute that I get my own cup, saucer and pot! The variety of tea is Black, Green, and Herbal. They serve all sorts of pastries and meals too. Oh and they have a gelato bar where you can also get arrogate. Overall this spot is decent. It has everything you need really. + Free Wifi + Gender Neutral Bathrooms (2) + Indoor and Outdoor Seating + Coffee, Tea and Smoothies + Breakfast and Lunch + Gelato and Sorbet I noticed a lot of bicyclists use this place as a meeting spot. I just wish they have heaters haha. read more

This is a cute European style café in the heart of Tiburon. It's spacious with indoor and outdoor seating but can get very crowded on the weekends, especially with mountain bikers and tourists.
