While looking at the menu, we found out they had 3 types of toasts. So we had to try all 3! Avocado…read moreToast, Smoked Salmon Toast and Honey Brie Truffle Toast. All 3 were delicious and smelled so good! I loved the setup; it was very calm and relaxing. Service was a bit slow since there was only 1 worker but she was so kind and patient. Smoked Salmon Toast: very refreshing. Loved the cream cheese, cucumber and Smoked salmon with chives (I believe). Perfect for a quick meal. Honey Brie Truffle Toast: not overly sweet but definitely refreshing. Loved the slices of Brie and the splashes on honey. Avocado Toast: very creamy and definitely had a thick avocado smear.

Sip & Bite Cafe Rocks!…read more Extremely fresh offerings from from a variety of toasts, coffees, Gelato, drinks, lemonade and much much more! My wife and I were in San Rafael for the afternoon and I was exploring with our canines Winnie & Stimpy in Downtown San Rafael while she had an appointment near by. Honestly, we looked at houses in the neighborhood 20 years ago before settling in our Potrero Hill Victorian in San Francisco. There seems to eat some familiar San Francisco establishments here, but I was looking for a "neighborhood gem". I "parked" the pups at the well shaded entrance and gave them water. I was drawn in by the posters displaying the three toasts. I am a self admitted smoked salmon "snub" but if the actual salmon toast was half as tasty as the photo then I had a winner! Also, the sound of fresh lemonade got my attention as well. I ordered the owner Ruchir who greeted me with hospitable and generous smile. I ordered the salmon toast which was prepared with very fresh salmon, sliced cucumbers and cream cheeses. It was incredible looking and tasting! Wow! Even another customer saw it and said "that looks amazing!" It was indeed not only lived up to the enticing poster, but was perhaps one of the BEST salmon toast I have EVER had across the globe. Even better than a well known San Francisco bakery with visit often. Wow! Wow! WOW! I asked Ruchir if I could take some photos while I waited for my order. He was very generous in asking if I wanted to sample some of the homemade Gelato. Oh course! Well, we honeymooned in Italy so I KNOW excellent Gelato and Sip & Bite Cafe has sourced exceptional choice including mango. Turkish coffee. Delicious! Ruchir shared they have only been opened for a few months and they ONLY offer the freshest Ingedients and explain how they roast their coffee beans. Of course I then ordered a cappacino! Excellent! If you are near San Rafael or driving to order from Napa its worth the stop at Sip & Bite Cafe for a refreshing cappacino, made to order lemonade or toast! Tell Ruchir Mike says "hi" and enjoy! #minionhousesf

Now to the main event - I ordered a chorizo breakfast burrito and an iced latte w sea salt caramel. Yeah buddy! My burrito came piping hot, with some home made salsa. Even though I ate it a half hour after picking it up, it was still nice and hot and AMAZINGLY delicious! It tasted homemade, and the flavors were perfect. Iced coffee was phenomenal. At a price point of ~$21 for both items, how could you go wrong? Such a great price for high quality, home made food. I've also ordered to-go traveler size (~10 servings) containers of coffee from them, and they did not disappoint with the temperature and fixins. I totally recommend this spot for high quality breakfast pick ups and good tasting coffee.

I read a post on my local Nextdoor app where somebody said we should support this business because…read morethey are in danger of closing. There were mixed comments, some saying the place is good, and others saying it's not worth it and the owner is rude. I wanted to help, so I went to go check it out and see what I could buy. The owner was very rude and very short with me. In reading other reviews on YELP (in addition to Nextdoor), I see that sometimes she's very friendly, and to some other people she just randomly decides to be absolutely cold and unwelcoming. Despite my being cheerful and friendly upon entering her shop, I fell into the category of the latter. Hmmm, I wonder why? I should've left, but as I decided, I wanted to try the pastries and see if the place was worth it at all or not. I ordered a chai and a muffin, both were overpriced, and definitely not worth it. The muffin tasted like a lot of the less expensive ingredients, and very little of the good ingredients. The chai was bland. I definitely have compassion regarding the situation, I'm sure the owner is under a lot of stress. But, this could be a person's time to show their true colors and she shows that she's very selective and who she is kind too and who she is not. My compassion ends here. I will not return, nor would I recommend this place.

Great place. The…read moretomato-basil soup is reasonably priced and delicious, served with a nice garlic bread. Cheerful, friendly staff. Great ambience. The missing star is for the prices. Maybe they are economically justified by inflation, but they seem extreme even accounting for inflation. Makes one think of gasoline prices, which "go up like a rocket and come down like a feather." We have not had extreme inflation for a few years now. Well, I guess that's what the market will bear in this affluent little town. In any case, management takes a bit of the sting out of the high prices by offering several modestly priced sides.
