I wanted something sweet and came around this cafe downtown. The guava sorbet was really flavorful and the guava flavor did not disappoint. The vanilla bean gelato was really good as well. They were priced at $5.50 each for one scoop. They also had baked goods and yummy coffee that you can smell from a half mile away! I would recommend stopping by for a sweet treat and a quick pick me up while walking around Tiburon. read more

Caffe Acri - Juice - Cafes Near Me - Tiburon, California

We stopped by here during a visit at Tiburon. The place was very relaxing, with great, attentive staff. The gelato was yummy!

I rarely write non-positive reviews but I'm hoping this assists the owner(s) or managers with addressing the issue. Friday late afternoon we finished an enjoyable dinner and decided to finish with gelato. The gelato was great. Issue: With such nice weather understandably there was a line waiting to enjoy cold gelato. The issue was with staff and the dismissive attitude and tone. Sure everyone has a bad day but when you hear comments "...it's our rush hour you're going to have to wait.." "...I can't serve you you're in the wrong line.." "...what do you want..." Not "...how can I help you..." "...sorry for the wait..." Customer service doesn't cost anything but No customer service will make you lose customers and $ tips. We will not be back and We Do Not Recommend. read more

Caffe Acri - Sorry. Not a fan. - Cafes Near Me - Tiburon, California

I highly recommend Caffe Acri. It is my favorite casual Italian restaurant. The menu is short but all of the options are excellent. Pinsa, pizza with a light crust, is unusual and delicious! My favorite is Patate. The service is friendly and the staff is very knowledgeable about the food offerings. I ordered Krone red wine from Calabria. Perfect with the pizza and my husband's skirt steak. They often have live music . read more

One star for cleanliness and nice staff. Everything else gets 0 star! Ice cream/Gelato was really low quality ..kids didn't eat and complained, and when I tried it. It did actually taste really bad. I will not repeat or recommend this place. We didn't have much option when we visited, but I would try something else if possible. read more

Corner coffee shop with a Parisian feel outdoor patio. Inside is spacious although a pigeon or 2 will find its way in and hop on tables looking to nibble on crumbs. I find that unsanitary. Why 2 stars - came here for a treat and purchased cookies. They were hard as rocks and crumbled into little pieces. Crappy. My latte with oat milk was ok. read more

Expect to see a lot of breathable spandex in designer colors with matching helmets. No, not the staff. I just noticed a lot of highly monied Marin cyclists come in here and disregard those of us waiting to be served to ensure they have their nonfat lattes for their rides. Oh Tiburon. This is a particularly spacious spot in a prime location right next to the Angel Island ferry terminal. Jamie W. and I should know since we had a few minutes before we were boarding the boat. I decided to get the $4.35 Latte without a speck of spandex stretched over me. It was piping hot as expected, and while they had an impressive pastry and dessert display case, we held firm to our nutritional standards lest we buckle the equilibrium on the ferry. No surprise that this cafe is quite the tourist magnet. LATTE - 3 stars...piping hot, too hot AMBIANCE - 3.5 stars...Italianate with spandex SERVICE - 3.5 stars...they did their jobs despite the 'tudes TOTAL - 3 stars....next stop Angel Island RELATED - Exploring north of the bay?

This is a classic cafe located in the heart of downtown. Food in the cold case looked delish but me and my wife came for their banana-coffee smoothie was fantastic. We shared this smoothie while enjoying the sun and people watching outside in their patio. The smoothie was made perfectly. If you're looking for a quick pastry bite or even some coffee, come here! read more

Great location. Excellent lattes and pastries. Much less expensive and better selection than the Malibu Farm to go cafe a couple doors down.

We are locals and do not really like going here. Coffee is not great in my opinion. Moreover, the service people are very rude. Ambiance is like a 'dead-zone'. Sorry, our experiences there. read more

Seemed like a decent place to have a quick lunch. A nice pretty spot, a corner side cafe. We got a big bowl of the potato leek soup - it tasted great. Warm and hearty, and just what we needed for a windy afternoon. The caprese sandwich was excellent as well! Who would have thought. I certainly didn't expect it to taste that good. A perfect balance of pesto tomatoes & cheese, on a perfectly grilled bread. Minus one star because our friend's orders were messed up (aka, it didn't even come until we asked for it, and when it did, it came in to-go boxes instead of plates). A little expensive, but still one of the more affordable places to eat in this touristy (but pretty!) town. read more

Well-located Café in downtown Tiburon - fast service, good beverages and gelato. We stopped by twice yesterday, when we visited Tiburon on our way to Angel Island State Park - first before our ferry ride, for gelato and mochas, then after our return, for cookies, sandwiches, chais and more gelato! The kids enjoyed the gelatos, and they make excellent mochas and chais. I was a bit mixed on their sandwiches - the toasted caprese was excellent, a couple of the other sandwiches less so. Seating is plentiful and they are covid-friendly in their protocols. Bathrooms were clean and well maintained. We ate outdoors and were pleased with the service - prompt and friendly. We will be back next time we are in town. read more

I give this time a 4/5 only because I wish there was more options. Like adding soups would be nice and more selections on sandwiches. Overall there green mango smoothie is pretty delicious I was it was more of a colder side like adding more ice maybe that's just my personal preference. Ok! Let's talk about the food my boyfriend and I ordered. If you are a tuna sandwich lover like me. This place has a bomb ass tuna sandwich panini pressed. I eat a lot of tuna and this place is up there to some of my favorites out there. The fish wasn't fishy and not even salty as well. So if anyone that sensitive to sodium overly this might be a good sandwich for you if you like tuna. My boyfriend had the turkey panini it was good very standard. Wish there was more filling because it was mainly all bread. Place was cleaned staff was friendly. We been here like 3 times and all 3 times everyone has been pleasant. read more

Every visit to Tiburon requires an espresso from Acri. Non-negotiable. Great coffee.

This is a well placed coffee shop at the ferry landing location. You order at the counter. Let's manage our exceptions folks and judge it as such. The Coffee is great with complete Espresso bar offering. Their baked goods are great. Very fresh with a great variety. i had the croissant sandwich which was ample and great. They had lunch sandwiches on display similar to places as such in italy This place can be crowded when the ferry unloads. Yes, there are some lines at these times. However, they have a reasonable approach to dealing with this. I think some of the folks who complain about slow service are trying to catch a ferry. However, this is not a McDonalds in Ohio. it's a good casual place. read more

It's hard to believe that this place is as inexpensive as it is. It's been a staple of my overnight stays in Tiburon for years, and this time I actually paid attention to how much a latte and a scone costs, significantly less than it cost me at home. Space is lovely, filled with light in the morning, on the water, dog friendly outdoor patio, there's really nothing more.that this place could deliver, it's the best coffee shop in Tiburon that I've found. read more

Subpar food. My husband and I ordered the chicken Milanese panini sandwich. At $16, the plate only came with the sandwich, with no salad or fries or chips that would usually accompany the meal, and it also made the plate look ridiculously empty. The meat tasted like it came out of a freezer, whereas the bun over-toasted. The only reason why I'm awarding them a star is because they have such a perfect location to run a cafe but left a great deal to be desired. I had high expectations for this pretty-looking cafe! read more

I walked in this business to get breakfast. I was waiting for the cashier to take my order he ignored me while talking to a customer who seem to be already situated I waited for a minute then he decided to ask me how can I help you. While waiting for my order a lady who happened to be white place a to go order like myself for some reason he handed her hers to go and had someone from the back hand me mine I thought it was a bit odd. I felt that because I was black he didn't want to bother with me will never visit that place again. read more

Such a cute spot. Great place to get some work done or meet a friend for coffee. Haven't eaten the food but I always see kids in their getting ice cream. Service is always great. read more

This place was not busy at all! They have coffee, pastries, food, and gelato. It's a cafe where people order first then sit down to eat. I enjoyed their vanilla bean gelato and slice of princess cake. It was pretty pricey though! read more

Cafe Acri is a popular coffee shop right in the middle of downtown Tiburon. It serves as the main rest stop for bikers in their bright spandex and tourists alike. They offer an ice water dispenser and two gender-neutral restrooms. Despite the large seating area inside and on the patio, the place fills up quickly. Prices tend to be on the high side given the area. A $6 single scoop of gelato is pricey, but very refreshing on a hot day after hiking around Angel Island. I recommend coconut! Drinks are OK - bold and smooth Americano, though my wife's Hazelnut Oat Milk Latte was more bitter than sweet. The mini plain biscotti was less successful - hard and flavorless. Should have opted for their $5 almond croissant! Cafe Acri misses two other features that I value in a top-end coffee shop: free wifi and charging outlets. Still, its a good place to rehydrate or recaffeinate yourself in Tiburon. read more

Stopped here for some gelato after a hike at angel island. It was pretty busy on a Friday afternoon but they served our large group quickly. Sadly they ran out of the pistachio flavor by the time we got there. I tried the espresso and the kalua almond. Both were creamy and flavorful! I liked that the espresso wasn't too sweet. I got a single scoop and they were able to do a half and half for flavors! read more

Came here for some gelato and coffee as we waited for the ferry to Angel Island. Outdoor seating was pleasant but pretty packed. The Mocha Chip gelato was on the sweet side, but hit the spot on a warm day. The coffee drinks were decent, had a strong espresso flavor which we liked, not as smooth of flavor like Blue Bottle, but we didn't expect that. read more

Our large group was kindly kicked out after our alloted time was reached at a nearby restaurant. So we saw this place and decided on an afternoon coffee. This place is super chill, and with the surrounding area, it really did feel like we were in some European cafe. Kinda wish we had more view of the water though. Ordered up some drip coffee and a biscotti. Coffee was okay, but wished I got a proper coffee mug though instead of a paper cup. Biscotti was soft. Not sure if it was supposed to be, since all other ones I've had before were hard and made for dipping. Maybe Italian ones are soft?? I later ordered a gelato since everyone seemed to be ordering it. Got the spumoni and let me tell you - you gots to try it. It's really good. Thoroughly enjoyed it on this warm summer afternoon. Lots of bikers in the area so I reckon it's a nice place to ride. Peace! read more

07.10.2021 After we left the city, we drove through this quaint little town on a Saturday morning. Stores were still closed but this little coffee shop was bustling with breakfast eaters and cyclists stopping for food or a drink. The line went pretty quick. You could sit inside or outside. Masks were optional for customers. Employees weren't wearing masks. Social distancing kind of being followed, it depended on how close the person behind you was standing. ‍ I had an Americano (piping hot!) and a chocolate-dipped almond biscotti. The chocolate melted easily into my Americano and gave it some good chocolatey flavor. Both were perfect for this cool morning. Though I wouldn't mind coming back to try other pastries and stroll through Shoreline Park and the rest of the town. read more

I grew up in SF and came back to visit only to find out that Cali lost its hospitality and it's evident that these new residents are self entitled. My coffee and breakfast burrito was, just as I described Cali., flavorless and expensive. The server, if you can call them that, was eye rolling like she didn't want me there. I had ordered a to go sandwich and it came out just wrapped in paper so I asked for a bag and she came out with a giant paper bag. I declined to take the ridiculous bag and once again she rolled her eyes. It's one thing to hate your job, but I tipped way too much for an awful start to my morning. read more

Caffe Acri - chef boyardee has more flavor than this sad thing. - Cafes Near Me - Tiburon, California

I had low expectations, with the excellent waterside location right off the ferry exit, and we were just looking for ice cream. But it turned out to be so delicious! The set up and menu reminded me of a café in Cannes. The gelato and sorbet flavors were intriguing, and all four of us were satisfied with the flavor and smooth texture of what we ordered: lemon cookie, apricot chardonnay, pineapple, and chocolate. Just perfect flavors, tasting like they should, without overpowering sweetness or fat. I look forward to visiting again and trying their other food, though honestly just for the sorbet and gelato would be worth it. read more

Beautiful pastries, savory treats and cookies. Their cappuccinos rival the best in San Francisco or Roma! Caffe Acri is a gem in Tiburon we have visited on numerous occasions while exploring the area or having lunch at Sam's (currently closed for renovations) or picking up spices from The Spicery a few blocks away. We arrived it seems right after the 3 pm ferry from San Francisco and the line was 10-12 deep. The staff seems a bit overwhelmed by the sudden surge but handled well with a smile and helpfulness. It is worth the short wait! If you are biking, walking, driving, yachting to Tiburon its a MUST stop to sit outside and soak up the glorious sunshine while nibbling on a fresh pastry, cookie and baked good sipping on a cappuccino! Prefecto! read more

I heard a rumor that the kitchen wasn't as clean and the chef sometimes spits in the food. It's too bad because their lattes are good and I really liked their tuna melt... worth the cost and I would order again. The bathrooms do smell like dirty bay so I wouldn't use the bathrooms again. read more
