They have a huge specials board plus a seasonal menu, which made ordering tempting. I got the blackberry pie latte and it was amazing. Coffee forward with great flavor. The blackberry pie note was subtle, not overpowering, and worked really well. Would definitely come back to try more.

I've been here a few times, and I honestly don't know why I haven't reviewed this place yet…read more The moment you walk into Manresa Bread, you're greeted right away. The space has a modern yet warm feel with beautiful natural wood finishes, fresh loaves of sourdough lining the shelves, pastries displayed in the case, and a mix of large communal wood tables, regular seating, and high-top tables. It's the kind of café that makes you want to slow down and stay awhile. The staff was friendly and helped us choose both a pastry and our toast. They were also happy to customize our order--we asked for the levain sourdough toast with butter instead of the usual olive oil. That toast was absolutely divine. The sourdough had the perfect balance: chewy without being too sour, with a crust that was crisp but not so hard that it fought back. Easily the best sourdough toast I've had in the Bay Area. If you come here, this is the one thing you have to order. The only disappointment was the butter. They serve French butter, but for an extra $2, the portion was tiny and honestly nothing special. I've had better butter from Whole Foods. It didn't take away from how incredible the bread was, but it wasn't worth the upcharge. Their Kouign-amann is also one of the best I've ever had. Instead of the typical flat, flaky style, theirs is taller with countless buttery layers that create an amazing texture. The cappuccino was another highlight. It had subtle notes of orange peel, whiskey, and cardamom, making it unique. The latte art was beautiful too. Overall, Manresa Bread is one of those cafés that makes you want to sit down with a laptop or a book and spend a few hours there. The only downside is there are no power outlets, so come with a full battery if you're planning to work. Must orders: Levain sourdough toast with butter and the Kouign-amann. Both are worth the trip.

It was delicious on its own, but the strawberry jam on the side was a great addition and paired nicely. The almond croissant was wonderfully flaky and buttery, filled with a rich, flavorful almond paste. Very good! I also ordered the seasonal lavender latte, and it was outstanding. The lavender flavor actually came through instead of getting lost in the coffee, creating a fragrant, well-balanced drink that was both comforting and delightful.

We went to the Valrhona chocolaterie a number of times for their chocolate and hot chocolate during our recent trip to Paris - my favorite hot chocolate in the world!

We're French and feel so blessed to have this authentic, amazing bakery in the Bay Area…read more This bakery offers the best pastries in the Bay Area. We love everything they make: almond croissants, pain aux raisins, abricotines, delicious éclairs, pastries... literally EVERYTHING. The chef is a true artist and incredibly talented. His wife, Aline, is also wonderfully kind and welcoming to customers. We recently ordered a cake for our senior graduates, and all of our French guests were so impressed by both the unique design and the taste of the cake. I would highly recommend this bakery to anyone looking to enjoy the very best French pastries. THANK YOU

This place used to be my favorite blue bottle location. The ambiance is lovely, and you don't have…read moreto worry about parking. However, twice I had diarrhea right after consuming a drink at this particular location. To be precise, it has to do with their whole milk. I'm not lactose intolerant. I have no problem with any other coffee houses. The first incident happened when I replaced their standard oat milk to whole milk for a Matcha latte. Yesterday, I decided to give the place another chance and I ordered a regular 16 oz latte with whole milk. My stomach started rumbling and I had diarrhea within 2 hours. I would like to urge the store to pay attention and improve their food safety.

We ate the brownie before we got our drinks :). Drinks were good. We ordered another with oat milk and cold foam. The stuff tastes great. There were a few tables to sit at, a counter area, and it was air conditioned. It was near closing time at 4:30. They called out my drink but someone snagged it so I thought it must be pretty popular. They were closing up so I asked if my drink was coming up. The barista said I called that out like 5 minutes ago. I said you did but someone grabbed it so they made me another one.

We were looking for a quick and easy bite in the area, and decided to try this bagel spot we had…read morenever heard of before. It turned out to be a pleasant surprise! When we walked in the staff were very friendly and helpful with our questions, since it was our first time and there were a lot of options on the menu. A lot of the bagels we wanted were already sold out by noon when we went. We settled on a sunrise egg which bagel. The bagel sandwich came out nice and toasty, and we took it to a nearby park to indulge! The bagel itself was fluffy on the inside while still maintaining satisfying chew, and the exterior had a nice bite from the toasting. The eggs were fluffy and the bacon was crispy, while the veggies tasted fresh! Couldn't ask for much more from a breakfast bagel sandwich! Overall, what a delicious spot for bagels!

Blvd Coffee is a great spot if you're looking for a cozy café to work, study, or catch up with…read morefriends. It has a much more homey and welcoming feel compared to a lot of the newer, trendier coffee shops, which I really appreciated. It's the kind of place where you can comfortably settle in for a few hours without feeling rushed. The food and drinks were both really good, especially the paninis--they're definitely worth ordering if you're stopping by for a meal or snack. The only reason I'm giving it four stars instead of five is because I felt the prices were a little on the higher side. That said, the overall atmosphere and quality of the food and drinks still made it an enjoyable experience. Overall, I'd recommend Blvd Coffee if you're looking for a comfortable neighborhood café with a cozy vibe, good coffee, and solid food. It's an easy place to spend an afternoon getting work done or catching up with friends.
