    CCSR Cafe view
    Jonica K.

    11/5/20- Small sandwich deli located on the medical campus of Stanford. Nice, quiet place to have a lunch break, especially if you're a student rushing to and from classes/labs! -Lox sandwich on Dutch Crunch bread- Included salmon, lettuce, tomato, onion, bell pepper, olives, pickles, and pepperoncini. The sandwich was also supposed to come with mayo but I definitely got cream cheese in mine. Not sure if someone got the two mixed up or if they ran out of mayo. Overall, the flavor of the sandwich wasn't bad but I was disappointed with how it was made. All of my salmon was smashed into the middle section and the 1/3 ends of my sandwich was just bread and lettuce. The sandwich was also very messy to eat with ingredients fall out or moving around with each bite. The Dutch Crunch bread also had no "crunch"...wish they would toast their subs! I heard that for their hot sandwiches, only the meat is toasted but not the bread. Would have loved a crispy, crackly exterior to my sandwich! -Cafe experience and ambience- Ordering was very simple and fast. They also serve coffee, smoothies, chips, etc. My sandwich came out within a couple of minutes. I also love the vibe of CSSR cafe in general. There's lots of glass and the architecture at Stanford has a very modern design. If not for COVID, I would be camped out in this area much more often. There's quite a few tables set up so it's a great place to rest. -Price/value- My lox sandwich was about $9-10, which is the price of most sandwiches here. Not too bad of a price for a slightly above-average sandwich but wouldn't go out of my way to eat here. I had a busy day on campus and this cafe was definitely a convenient location to grab a simple lunch. It's not my favorite place but it is still a good option if you're on the run and need a fast meal!

    Roast beef with Swiss on Dutch

    SO ill be honest as evidenced by my checkins Nexus is my go to here but there are times,and times being the key factor, that the CCSR Cafe hits the spot. As work dictates sometimes I cannot meet the hard 230 pm cutoff at Nexus. Other times you just need a great deli sandwich and this is a great place to get one. First off the lines can be horrendous during peak hours. That being said the service is quick and friendly. I also really appreciate that the person handling the money is NOT the person making at sandwich. Its a heck of sandwich as well. As always my Mendoza Line sammy is a Roast Beef with Swiss cheese. Its a basic order, its impossible to hide crappy ingredients and it lets face it very very tasty. The Roast beef is perfectly pink and tasty. The ingredients like the sprouts, onions, lettuce and tomato are fresh. The mustard and mayo are nothing special but deftly applied in perfect amounts. The dutch crunch is not quite up to Ike's standards but its a close second. It is a sandwich at its best. Simple but well executed They actually quite an extensive collection of chips, as well as the usually suspects in terms of beverages. As a plus they recently updated the outside furniture/tables and it no longer looks like a tetanus shot waiting to happen.

    Everyone knows I am a sucker for a sammich. And when you are on the road sometimes you just want something simple...like...oh...I don't know...2 pieces of unbuttered and toasted sourdough, a grilled chicken breast, a little mustard, and some dill pickles. A simple lunch was craved and received. The ladies taking my order were very nice and very fast at making the sammich. At $9 it is a little pricy, but it is exactly what I wanted. No sodium, fat, grease, or clarified butter overload here. Just a good lil sammich. Next time I am at Stanford, I would put money on me eating here again. For the decent campus fares, speed, smiles, and simple food, sometimes the comforting things are the best. 4 stars.

    Some sandwiches are just sandwiches. And then there's Driftwood--where even a "basic" deli order…read morefeels oddly... elevated. It starts with the Dutch crunch. Not an afterthought, not stale by noon--fresh, crackly, and actually worthy of building a sandwich around. Add in Boar's Head meats, crisp lettuce, properly ripe tomatoes (rare these days), and quality sliced cheeses, and suddenly you're wondering why every deli can't get this right. Everything tastes intentional. Clean, fresh, no shortcuts. And don't skip the soups. Today's beef chili was rich, hearty, and exactly what you want when Palo Alto decides to pretend it has seasons. It's not flashy. No gimmicks. Just a really well-executed deli that quietly does everything right--which, honestly, is harder to find than it should be.

Their breakfast sandwiches are just as customizable and satisfying as their lunch menu. Speaking of sandwiches -- the menu is seriously impressive. You're not stuck with a standard combo. They offer multiple bread choices, a variety of cheeses, and different spreads so you can build exactly what you're craving. It feels elevated compared to a typical deli. The chip selection is a standout -- more than 10 flavors of Kettle Brand chips, plus guac and salsa chips. If you like options, you'll appreciate the variety. And the drink selection? Packed. Soft drinks, a wide range of local beers, and more choices than most convenience stores. On top of that, they serve café drinks and Dreyer's ice cream -- so you can grab coffee, lunch, snacks, and dessert all in one stop. Clean, well-stocked, and clearly run with attention to detail. Definitely a spot I'll keep coming back to.

Mid week brunch meant a quieter atmosphere and open seating. After perusing the menu we ordered at the counter before sitting at a table after picking up utensils and water. We ordered Fambrini's Breakfast, Brie & Mushroom Omelette, Crab Omelette, and shares the Lotus Biscoff Pancakes. Everyone loved their egg platters. The eggs were perfectly light and fluffy. I generally avoid omelettes getting scrambles instead because restaurants tend to overcook the eggs. Our dishes were prepared with quality and flavor in mind. I personally had the crab omelette and left no crumbs behind. The potatoes were well seasoned and wish I had enough room in my tummy to finish them off! The drip coffee was bold and delicious not watered down at all! Finally, we shared the 2 stack biscoff pancakes for a sweet finish. The pancakes were bouncy with biscoff sauce and a mound of whipped cream. This was mouth wateringly delicious. I don't have much of a sweet tooth but this was so yummy. This isn't a traditional sit down service but counter staff were friendly and efficient. There is a small parking lot off to the side and there is indoor and patio seating. Come by for a meal and you won't be disappointed! I wish I lived closer so I could taste the rest of their meal. Kudos and thanks for an awesome meal!

Our Food: We ordered the french toast and Biscoff Pancakes as our sweets. Both were fluffy and perfectly sweet. We also ordered the Monte Cristo and Chicken Pesto Sandwich. The Monte Cristo was okay, but the Chicken Pesto outshined it. The ciabatta bread is housemade and you can tell! Its perfectly soft and pairs super well with the garlic aoili and pesto sauce. The dalgona coffee looks amazing but is only okay, I'd maybe try something else. It is definitely Cafe style, where you order and pay at the counter first. They usually help you find seating (which is all outdoors) and bring out the food. From there everything is self-serve, whether that's for utensils or simply getting water. The food is delivered very quickly, but not super hot. Overall, I think its good food, and worth the visit if you're in the area.
