Let me start by saying we absolutely loved our experience here and would like to thank Google for providing a public place for visitors to experience. It's clean- parking was free! Easily accessible- friendly staff- Store was well stocked with merchandise and employees to answer any questions. They also offer free water and their danishes were delicious. Definitely going back . read more

Well well well! So I finally made it over to the café, and it was a bit crowded today, thanks to a visiting group from a Senior Citizen Center who arrived by van. We were seated outside, which was great because we could enjoy the fresh air while having lunch. As for the Google experience, the lunch isn't exactly what Google employees receive for free, but it gives a taste of it. While it's not free, the prices are somewhat reasonable. My meal included a turkey club sandwich (which was quite good), a bowl of butternut squash soup, veggie chips, and a s'mores cookie. With tax, the total was $24.00. Interestingly, they do not accept tips, suggesting that employees are paid well enough not to need them! While I was having lunch, a lady and her baby were nearby, and the baby looked over and said "goo goo." I smiled back and joked, "Google," then I immediately checked my stock--just kidding! If you find yourself in the Mountain View area, the café is close to Shoreline Amphitheatre and Shoreline Park, nestled by the San Francisco Bay. It was a nice change of pace. Just think: if you worked for Google, breakfast, lunch, and dinner would all be included, and you wouldn't need to go to a bar--everything is part of their impressive all-inclusive experience. Next time I feel the itch to explore a new world within our own, I'll definitely head over to the café again! read more

My friend raved about this place so we popped in when we were next door trying to get the phone fixed. The cafe had a nice open nature feel. Friendly and super fast service. Food- All day egg: $10 4/5 sandwich was a bit sweet. Fresh side of fruit was good. Winter roasted veg salad: $10 4/5 tasty healthy salad. Wish I asked for dressing on the side. Food was tasty, good place to pop in for a light snack. I was hungry again within the hour. read more

Charming cafe right next to the Google store and open to the public and adjacent to a City of Mountain View park and beautiful tall redwoods with a nice small clean well lit modern cafe. There is a selection of breakfast foods, light lunch fare such as soup or salad. Also an espresso bar for hand made drinks. All food items are reasonably priced. Nice kid play and learn room in the back if you have a future engineer. Free parking. Highly recommend. read more

It's just a café... [Mountain View CA] If you're just looking for a good cup of coffee or a place to get some work done, this café is available to you and just like any other coffee shop/restaurant, you just park your car in the lot and walk in. If you live in Mountain View, you now have a cute café to hang out and do some work. The café is just to the right of the Google Store. The menu included a nice selection of breakfast, lunch, snack, and drink options. We placed our order for a classic grilled cheese and a glass of lemonade. I picked up my drink at the beverage section and my grilled cheese at the opposite end (I was given a buzzer pager). Lovely café with good food and a great atmosphere. If it were by itself elsewhere I wouldn't be able to tell that it had anything to do with Google. There is nothing "Google-themed" inside. Review #3945 read more

I love this place. They have samples of the seasonal desserts and it's pretty big so I really didn't have to get one. I got a salad Autumn Chicken Apple Salad Greens blend of kale, radicchio and treviso tossed in a creamy honey crisp apple vinaigrette. Topped with pickled cranberries, granny smith apple, gorgonzola cheese and sweet candied walnuts $9 It was so good and big I couldn't even finish it so I brought it home! To drink I had a Caramel Latte and the dessert was a sample of the Matcha cake. You should go try it and after go for a walk around the campus. Service was excellent so helpful and they make you want to visit again. So thanks for a nice day. Ambiance is very nice and relaxing too. Inside or out. Then after you eat go see the bear made of pennies and see the other art exhibits. read more

Nice vibes, ok location. Parking is quite a bit of walk away. The coffee is more affordable than most in this area, but the quality (hoping it was just my drink) was pretty bad. Possibly one of the worst lattes I've had to pay for. Got their butter noodles which was ok, with a plain and choco croissant which were ok as well. Cute place to chill tho! read more

If you've never been ! Come! You won't regret it. We came up for a country concert! Wow I'm in love with the whole Google experience the café reading that I had to offer lots of beautiful streets to go biking on They even have an a short distance a whole movie theater. There are so many things here to do trip around and walk. It's just so nice and the food here is absolutely amazing as well. Service was great. Everybody's very welcoming. I've only had one gentleman that did not know any answers other than that everybody else seem very well versed read more

Google's cafe is probably one of the best I've been to in Silicon Valley! They has a wide variety of food that is made to order and customizable very easily. We got probably one of everything just to try it and everything tasted really good. And they also have tons of drinks and desserts available as well. Great perk for families when they are visiting and very good service. read more

Really nice curated space! I loved seeing the display of freshly made in-house bakery items and options for breakfast/lunch. I had a passionfruit dessert and it was sooo good. Not too sweet, very tart. I got the strawberry dragonfruit drink and it was too sweet for me. Will try something else next time. One thing I wish is that they actually sold the jugs on display! They're so cute and made my local artists, but you can't even pick up and handle them because they're glued down! Such a bummer because it would be nice to touch and feel these ceramics that are normally sold online. I wish they actually sold them in the curated popup store. Solid place to work at if you're in the area and need a cafe. read more

Mediocre and overrated/over priced food. I thought it is supposed to be welcoming place but I didn't find it to be. Some outdoor seatings could use some protection from the elements. Google products displayed are not very attractive and nor want to approach them to try. I'm still not sure why they offer this space to non-googlers/employees & families. Maybe trying to copy Apple visitor center on infinite loop? read more

Such a chill place to eat/drink/study/work. Food is great, a bit pricey for the portions, but still tasty. They apparently support local businesses like Acme Bread (huge fan) and Progeny Coffee. The cafe is much more affordable, however. Most things are under $5 at most. The Americano is my go-to and it's only $2.50. In this economy I find that fairly scarce to come by. There's a little knick knack shop nearby with all sorts of things. It's kind of like a mini Therapy Store if you're familiar with that SF Bay Area business. There's an area to study/work and also a larger conference room that apparently you can book? I saw someone giving a presentation about insects and why they're important. I felt like at college again lol. Bathrooms are one of the best and cleanest. I think Googlers bring friends/family here to get a glimpse of the campus. The Google Store is also right next door as well, be sure to check that out! read more

I wanna gatekeep but I cannot emphasize enough how everyone needs to visit here. Not only is it sooo fun and cool as an attraction since it's Google HQ, the food and coffee here is actually soooo good & soo affordable! I'm always telling people to try it because a lot of folks don't realize anybody can go visit and order from the cafe. My go-to order for food is usually the grilled cheese (like $6) and buttered noodles (like $4). For coffee I usually get the engineer (like $5)- it's sweet but not too sweet since it's honey flavored. The prices are soooo good considering how amazing everything is. Of course, it's also just a super beautiful property with tons of art and things to see. Follow the signs to either of the 2 free parking lots. read more

I was having a WONDERFUL conversation with cashier, Julissa, before a busser lady came and interrupted us mid conversation, asking Julissa if she still needed a break even though all she was doing was giving amazing customer service. Which was HIGHLY rude and unprofessional (as someone else who works in the food industry), but i'm glad the pastries were amazing enough to compensate for this awful interaction. read more

The Google experience center was a great experience. It was nice to do something different and random. They have a café where you can pick a variety of meals off of their menu. They also have a variety of pastries and you can grab a pick me up coffee. There is different rooms. One for kids a section that sells merch and another section that sells their product. The café food was really good. I enjoyed my sandwich and tomato soup that I got on the side. Afterwards, you can walk around and see some of the really cool sculptures that they have and are definitely picture worthy. read more

I visited here to get some work done grabbed something to eat. I got the tomato focaccia which I believe they source their baked goods from elsewhere. The staff member who helped me was friendly.

I love the vibes at this cafe! It's usually peaceful--even when it's full of people. There's plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, and they keep water and table sauce outside. Big plus for dog parents like me: dogs are welcome! And if you have kids, the room next to the cafe often have coloring activities to keep them happily occupied. The menu is surprisingly affordable--especially for a Google campus setting. I was genuinely impressed the first time I saw the prices. The staff is always polite and helpful. Once, when I asked about ordering tiramisu, the staff went out of their way to check if they had it in stock before I waited in the ordering queue (there were a lot of people). It saved me time and showed how attentive they are. As for the food and drinks, I've enjoyed everything I've tried so far. My go-tos are the Mocha, the Engineer, and Noogler--each has its own charm. read more

Loved the food! The people taking orders were very helpful and friendly. The butter noodle was just intense. So so so much butter. It just tasted like a melted stick of butter. Delicious butter but still... the soup was unique and I loved it read more

Google Visitor Center is a great place to take kids and out of town guests. Aside from the Google factor, the cafe is well priced (cheap!) and the food is not bad. The bakery items are not like wow, but decent for the low price you pay. The food is also not wow, but decent for the price. I felt the quality of the ingredients were pretty good, though execution and cooking could use some work. It can get busy on weekends but we have always been able to find seating outside and make it through the line pretty fast. Some of the workers at the cafe aren't too happy or friendly, but the people outside are very friendly. Ample parking. There is seating inside, but we have always just sat outside. Kids are able to run around safely while adults enjoy some food. Nearby is the shoreline park, so it is a nice pairing. read more

Fabulous place to grab a meal! The restaurant itself has a great ambiance on the Google campus; clean, modern and techy-the bathrooms even have heated bidets! The service is always stellar and the food itself is absolutely incredible: you almost can't pick something bad off the menu. It's all locally sourced, fresh, and delicious - and the prices are incredibly reasonable. read more

After seeing the selection at the Apple park store cafe, I'm pretty content with the Google Visitor Experience Cafe. The cafe is right at the corner of the visitor experience entrance, slapped between the Huddle room and the Google store. It has both outdoor and indoor seating, tables are first come, first served. One line for the food and drinks ordering, drinks are picked up at the beverage bar, food at the opposite end of the kitchen. If you do pick a table outside, you should check in once a while for the drinks, the buzzer you get is only for the food. Food selection is pretty decent. You have choices like sandwiches, salads, small pastas, soups. Breads are from Acme Bread, some dishes from Cowgirl Creamery. It's like you have the choices at the Ferry Building but in Mountain View. I forgot who was the local roaster, but very decent coffee. Soup and salads were of decent portions, I had a tomato bisque, a citrus salad, and a coffee and was full for about 3 hours, which was not bad considering it was my first meal after a workout. The environment was quite chill. I wouldn't make a whole trip out of just to dine here, but it's pretty good for the convenience of dining here before or after wandering around the campus. read more

In one day, we checked out the Google campus, the Nvidia campus and the Apple campus. Other than a rude lady blocking entrance to an intersection (not a Google employee at all) for an upcoming concert and having a hard time finding visitor parking, we had a good time. Most welcoming compared to the other two campuses. Parking is right across the street South side?) but there's no signage stating the fact at all. The experience is wonderful and the food is locally sourced. We ordered a few sandos (Sammies) and a tomato soup as well as the butternut squash soup. Highlight was definitely the butternut squash soup. Highly recommended! The place is small but felt like I was part of the UN with the crowd around us. Languages from around the world. There's also a park across the street where you can walk around. I believe you can even use their bikes. I didn't try since the bikes are too big for my kids. Worth checking out. read more

Love the Google Visitor Center. It's a great place to take people visiting the valley. Some might say it's just a Google Products store but I think it's so much more fun because you get to see the iconic Google Campus, art from Burning Man, look for Android statues, and eat at a nice cafe. The food is also decent at the cafe with reasonable pricing. The staff is nice and friendly. Overall, I think it's a fun place to visit and take friends. read more

I was never a Google fan but surprisingly had a very good experience at this new cafe that was open to the public two years ago. The vibe i picked upon entering was calming, casual and peaceful. We ordered butternut squash soup, ham & cheese sandwich, all day egg, roasted veggie burrata salad and desserts (pumpkin spice cake and brownie). Can't believe how great they tasted! Service was prompt and friendly. We got served right away from this polite lady carrying a device. She also recommended pumpkin spice cake to me and said it was her favorite. Thanks hon! The cake indeed was absolutely delicious! The plus side was it wasn't too sweet. I also loved their imperfectly-shaped bowls and plates. They are aesthetic and unique. We also went to the adjacent huddle area. There was a pop up shop there and a rest/study area. Price was very reasonable. My wallet was as happy as my stomach. A much better cafe experience than the ones in high end valley fair. Staff generally were courteous, friendly and respectful. I had a good time and will return. read more

Out of curiosity, I recently visited Google's campus to try this cafe which is open to the public. I ordered the porchetta sandwich and it was delicious. While I typically don't eat dessert for lunch, I couldn't resist ordering the pumpkin creme fraiche layer cake. I found it to be quite tasty too. Service was prompt and friendly. As others have mentioned, the Google visitor parking is kind of far away (12 min away by foot according to Google Maps). Nevertheless, the menu is enticing enough for me to treat those 12 minutes as an opportunity to get more steps in my day. read more

I've always wanted to feel like an elite Google tech bro in Silicon Valley, so touring this visitor cafe on the Google campus that's open to the public is the closest thing there is! We visited on a summer Saturday, when it gets quite busy. The interior and decor of the cafeteria is very visually appealing, clean, and minimalistic. There's a wide variety of items on the menu, including a huge selection of baked in-house pastries like cupcakes and eclairs. We ordered a massive feast fit for even the hungriest Google employee: Strawberry Dragonfruit (4/5): This drinks just tastes like ordinary juice, but it's a big cup and very refreshing. Oat Latte (5/5): This was our biggest suprise -- comparable to coffee in Seattle! It goes down the throat smoothly. Crispy Ruben (5/5): The corned beef is a little too greasy, but it definitely is cooked crispy like bacon and very well seasoned. Served with sauerkraut and Swiss cheese on toasted rye, this was our favorite item! Smoked Salmon Toast (chef's special) (2/5): The toast is smothered with a generous amount of some kind of salmon pate-like cream cheese mousse, which made this dish way too salty. The smoked salmon itself was okay. Chocolate Eclair (2/5): This eclair didn't taste that fresh, maybe it was from yesterday? It also had too much thick white custard cream inside, oozing all over our mouths and a giving us a richness overdose. Overall, the food and ambiance is actually pretty decent for a convenient lunch when you are at the Google Visitor Experience. Definitely worth checking out for the experience if you're touring the area. read more

I had the opportunity to try Cafe at Mountain View again. The interior and decor is so pretty! Lots of seatings indoors and outdoors. I enjoyed their turkey club sandwich. There was lots of smashed avocado which I appreciated. Great portions for the price. The tomato bacon jam that they use, adds a nice sweetness to every bite. All the ingredients tasted fresh and worked so well together. The creamy tomato basil soup still continues to be my fave. Very good and consistent from my last visit. It goes well with a nice grilled cheese sandwich. Don't forget to try their refreshing drinks and order some delicious treats! Service was nice and friendly. I can't wait to go back! read more

What a fun place to go, and I just love the café! The little shop in the huddle, is quite pricey, but a lot of cute things to check out. That's not a bad thing. The events at the huddle were a lot of fun. The café has some delicious options, and I enjoyed my experience there!!! read more

Pleasantly surprised! Wow they've got guides everywhere ready to greet you and introduce any product or space to you -- amazing service at the cafe. There's quite a bit of selection, enough to keep your tummy happy if you're tired from walking the trails all around. There's lots of seating outside with covered shade. The quality of the food was okay. The sandwich was not made fresh... tasted like they just heated up a premade Reuben so the meat was tough to chew and the bread was overreacted. $9 Salad has no protein source. They do say it's served fresh but unfortunately not made fresh. Butter croissant was $4.50 and although it's as big as an 8inch plate, it was tasted like a regular croissant and unfortunately, no butter was provided. We also had asparagus soup. Total price for was everything was $34. There are some pretty cool art sculptures to check out. Chicory Citrus Salad $9 butter lettuce treviso mix, cara cara orange, blood orange, navel orange, shaved fennel, avocado, toasted pistachio, aleppo flakes, aleppo pepper citrus dressing Hot Reuben Sandwich $9 rye bread, corned beef, swiss cheese, sauerkraut, thousand island dressing I would've rated my experience as a solid 3 but we happened to stumble upon their SAVOR THE SUMMER Food @ Google event and I'm not sure if it's just for the employees or what but we got a bunch of food samples and we played some carnival games to win novelty prizes. I never thought it'd feel so good to break some plates and toss a bunch of rings on coke bottles hahaaa! I could've eaten the entire platter of strawberry vanilla cupcakes -- it has REAL FLOWERS and GOLD FLAKES!! If this is something they do for their employees, then I need to get a job here ASAP! There's also bikes that you can use to just ride around and it seems like anyone can just borrow one, no questions asked. Now I actually have some incentive to learn how to ride a bike! read more

A really cute little pit stop for those new to the tech area and wanting to take a nice stroll around the Google campuses and see all the usual tech campus things. Cafe is cute with a pop-up shop inside and all the food is reasonably priced. Service is quick and they give you a pager to pick up your food later. Seating can get hard to find, especially during lunch hours on weekends. The grilled cheese ($5) - Top Notch! Crunchy, cheese, well-toasted bread. Exactly what you'd want in a non-soggy grilled cheese at a great price. Tomato Soup ($5) - Paired perfectly with the grilled cheese and wasn't too salty. Only feedback was that it could have been a bit hotter (was more lukewarm). Butter Noodles ($3?) - Not that special, definitely not that warm at all and felt kinda cold / butter had coagulated so it felt like mostly eating empty carbs. All Day Sando ($10) - My husband got this and it's delicious! Nice combination of bacon, egg, cheese, on a nice english muffin! Parking is kinda tough since they direct you to a dedicated parking spot and supposedly there's a bus that shuttles you to the main campus? read more

Kinda surprised at the high rating. But I only got drinks which three of the four were not good. Strawberry dragonfruit drink tasted like syrup. Vanilla latte iced was sour. And the matcha needed sweetener to make it taste good. Only drink our group like was the Engineer which was cold brew with oat milk and cinnamon. Prices were good, around $4 average I believe. Ambiance was just ok, like it had Legoland vibes. No wifi lol which was weird. Google bikes were cool but were only for employees. There is free visitor parking. And it was a sunny day so was nice to walk around. Google shop was kinda cool. Overall you can check it out but skip the drinks. Maybe the food was good. read more

We came here on a Sunday morning and there was quite a few people but still some open tables. Staff was very friendly in taking our order. We waited about 20 minutes for our food which is longer than we expected but not the worse. The food is very reasonably priced and the drinks are definitely on the cheaper side but still delicious! For drinks, we got the drip coffee and basil strawberry lemonade. For food, we got the tomato soup, avocado sandwich, turkey club sandwich, and a blueberry muffin. Our total came out to $38.19 for all of the food and drinks. The sandwiches and soup were good, tasted fresh and the sandwich also came with half a pickle. We had high hopes for the blueberry muffin but it didn't have much flavor at all- not very sweet, it had the density of pound cake, and the crumble wasn't sweet and crumbly like we expected. Overall, positive experience and would come back to try other items! read more
