Cozy spot that's perfect for a casual brunch with your girlfriends for your monthly yap session. The staff were all friendly, and the environment gives mom-and-pop shop vibes. Diverse guest demographic from my observation, so the spot is very family and pet friendly. I ordered the Cheese, Eggs, and Grits with Bacon, and the staff were incredibly accommodating to swap out the bacon with sausage upon my request (thank you for humoring me!). My grits were flavorful and warm, eggs cooked to a perfect runny yolk, and the chili crisp oil is a good choice in the dish. Their black sesame hojicha latte was a seasonal item, glad I got a chance to try it! It had a balanced trifecta of the three flavors. All in all? Would recommend for anyone looking for a nice, casual brunch, whether it be solo or with your "council" of friends. read more

The Press - Cheese Grits And Egg with Sausage Black Sesame Hojicha Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Livermore, California

This place is a go-to brunch spot for my friends and I! Adorable interior and good-quality food. The wait can be a little long because they're always pretty busy, but in my opinion it's worth it because of the quality and ambiance. The panini bread is super soft (I hate when it's too crunchy to eat and hurts the roof of your mouth... this place is the opposite of that) and they're very liberal with avocado. I'd definitely try their selection of flavored lemonades... the strawberry one is a personal favorite!! read more

I remember going to the Pleasanton location back in high school and never got the chance to go back. So I decided to try out the Livermore location since I was in town for something else. I ended up getting the Honey Bee Sting Panini, and half Berries+Honey Lemon Ricotta and half Strawberries Lemon Ricotta Toastini. Staff was super nice and let me know that I could do half and half when I asked which they preferred. I love sourdough and salami, so I may be biased, but the Honey Bee Sting Panini was amazinggg. What a great combination that was so mouthwatering I had to finish it. I'll also say, it's like 2 sandwiches in 1, since it's double stacked. They're thin but filling so a steal! The sandwiches also had a good amount of salami in them, along with tomato and onion. The honey is smothered on the outside of each sourdough slice, so definitely be prepared for a sticky mess. The only critique I have, and it's minor, is that I would have liked just a bit less honey. The sweetness contrasts well with the salty but sometimes too much. The ricotta toasts were delightful and stacked with fresh fruit. They were also scarfed down, though I think these could have used a touch more sweetness. Overall, I'm so glad I came back after so long. Everything I got was delicious and I'll definitely be back for the salami sandwich. The place was packed when I went but I didn't have to wait for seating. Tables were clean and water is self-serve. You order at the counter and your food is brought out to your table (via number stands). They also have an assortment of hot sauce if you need them. Staff was really nice as well, clearing dishes as we finished them. read more

This place is all hype. I guess you go for the ambience? I don't think they make anything from scratch, except the tomato soup, which was actually super yummy. The items we purchased could be made easily made at home with the easy-to-source ingredients and a panini press. You can probably buy the press and ingredients and it'll cost just you as much as a single visit to this establishment. Avo sandwich w/ pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds. Honey bee sandwich. PBJ + banana. read more

Food - The cinnamon toast was so warm that it warmed my heart. Haha. It was super yummy and I can definitely taste that bang of cinnamon flavor. Also, the hot chocolate was pleasing to the eye and my stomach. It didn't give me any tummy troubles for the rest of the day. It also had a nice touch with design. The food came around 6 minutes after I ordered which is pretty quick for a full house. The waiter came to check on in on me twice while being seated for an hour. Service - The cashier was super nice and helpful that he gave me and my friend a sample of the strawberry lemonade since we were hesitant but interested to get it. (in the end, my friend got the strawberry lemonade) As I sampled the strawberry lemonade, it was like a regular strawberry lemonade with a hint of cinnamon pizzazz to the tongue. But nothing super strong. But I felt the need to have something warm and toasty in the morning. Therefore, that's why I got the hot chocolate :) Place - - The place was clean, I noticed workers immediately cleaning up tables after customers leaving - Make room for others during a busy day - I also noticed a guy worker helping out a customer on finding a place to sit since it was so crowded you can't even see the seats! - There are also little flowers in the center of the table for decoration as well - On the right when you walk in, there is a showcase for the pastries (like doughnuts and cookies) Overall, I enjoyed being here as it was my first time. I think The Press is a great place to hang out whether you want something small or a full meal. I hope everything enjoys something as nice as this place :) I'll definitely be coming here more often! read more

The Press - Cinnamon Toast ($6) - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Livermore, California

See all

The Press is a nice simple cafe that turns out artisan sandwiches. Mostly street parking only. The cafe has both inside and outside seating options. Though, large parties of 8 or more might find it challenging to sit together. Self-serve complimentary iced water and cups provided. Two spacious restrooms for the entire cafe. The lighting was very good as it allowed for natural lighting to come in. Also, the cafe itself had bright lighting where you could enjoy the ambiance of the place. Order and pay at the counter. You will get your number and they will bring your food/drink order to the table. Turkey Reuben: Acme organic wholewheat sourdough, Hobbs nitrite free roast turkey, sauerkraut, cheddar, house made Russian dressing. It is a healthier version of this classic sandwich. "Four thinly sliced toasted bread gave every bite a nice crunch you would enjoy." Not heavily sauced, so the bread didn't get soggy. "The sauerkraut was subtle" yet blended in nicely. I love the classic with Pastrami or Corned Beef, but this was a good take on the Reuben. Honey Bee Sting Panini: Acme whole wheat sourdough, Hobbs fennel salami, chili flakes, provolone, onion, roma tomato, aioli, hot honey drizzle. This was my sandwich. I love the thick layers of salami and the spiciness of chili flakes. The hot honey drizzle is the newest thing on sandwiches, pizza, etc. This also had the four slices of toasted bread that gave this sandwich the crunch. Turkey Avocado Provolone Sammie: Acme organic ciabatta, Hobbs nitrite free roast turkey, baby arugula, tomato, aioli, house made pesto. My wife enjoyed her sandwich. The smokiness of the turkey, creaminess of the avocado, with the pesto. Mushroom Muffaletta: Acme ciabatta, olive tapenade, maitake mushroom, provolone, onion, arugula, aioli. "At first, it looked like a lot of bread for this sandwich, but as you took a bite of it, it was a flavor explosion of the crunchiness of the bread, freshness of all the vegetables but it was all tied together with the olive tapenade which provided a salty, briny taste that was the star of this sandwich." Tomato Jam - this was very good! I am glad I tried it. Slightly sweetened with apple juice, Apple sauce, apple cider vinegar, or something like that gave it a sweet yet tart taste. Mocha - nice decoration and wonderfully made mocha. Lavender Lemonade - this was a beautiful looking drink. Tart because it was Lemonade, but I liked it as I don't mind tart things. All their artisanal sandwiches were good-sized and full of meat. They were not skimpy, which I appreciated. The prices were very reasonable for the size of the sandwich, and it also included a side salad. read more

The food here was good even through they gave me the wrong item it was still delicious. I would definitely go again. I was supposed to receive the pear panini but instead i got the pear tosstine and oml. It was the best mix up ever! The bread is lined goat cheese then they put arugula, pears and top it off with honey. I'm not usually a fan of pears but omg it was so creamy and delicious. The combination of everything just melts in your mouth. It's almost reminds me of a charcuterie board but on toast lol. The coffee was delicious and nutty I can't rember which one I got but it was delicious, I finished it before I made it to my car. I definitely will be coming again :) read more

The Press - Latte Pear & Chèvre Toastini - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Livermore, California

Great place to get brunch/lunch with indoor and patio seating- order at the counter. They have a drink menu with specialty lattes, pretty lemonades etc. The food menu is extensive with brunch items, paninis, open faced toasts, salads, soups etc. We had a couple of paninis which come with a side salad. The paninis were tasty and came in HUGE portions! For whatever reason it is served as TWO paninis stacked on top of each other. I tried to get my son to order 'real' lunch food, but he insisted on Matcha Chia and I caved in. Glad we got it though since it was AMAZING. The Chia seeds are like soaked in matcha, so each seed is covered in matcha and maple syrup and it was super juicy and addictive. Cool place to hang out and catch up with a friend. They have one location in Pleasanton as well. read more

Yum!!! This place is really good!!! First of all the staff was amazing. I came in with my baby and sat down by the long table at the end. I had a staff member asking me if I'd rather sit on another table and if I wanted a high chair for my baby. That was so thoughtful. The sandwiches and drinks were really good. I had a peppermint mocha and was perfectly made. I forgot to take a photo of the sandwich but it was exquisite. Oh, I also had a lavender lemonade. It was tasty and not too "lavandery" The place is nice and spacious for a cafe. Definitely recommend coming here if you are I. The area. I'll be back for more read more

Their avocado toast is amazing. Great vibes fresh menu a little on the pricey end but health is wealth.

My friend and I went hiking and planned to catch a movie afterward. We stopped for a quick bite and decided to try Press. I appreciated that their menu was displayed outside, so we could check it out before going in. You order at the counter, and they offer both indoor and outdoor seating. The atmosphere had a great vibe, the staff was super friendly, and our food came out quickly. It's a perfect spot if you're on the go.

I really like this place, the only reason I'm giving it 3 stars is that they have the most annoying worker here whose laughter is sooooo loud and sharp it's disturbing. If I'm by myself I wear noise canceling headphones but they don't block it at all. If I'm with friends, it's so distracting when we're having a conversion. And she laughs every 4 mins!! I kid you not, so it's hella disturbing. I also find it disrespectful that the management doesn't give feedback to this person. I think being abnormally loud in a public place is disrespectful of other people's space. read more

The food and service are very consistent. I'm no longer live in the area but whenever I came back, this is the place I'd go for brunch.

I had to drop off my car to get serviced this morning in the area and I'm glad I was able to get the dealership to drop me off here for a late breakfast instead of waiting around in the lobby for my car to get ready. I arrived borderline hangry and it was so hard for me not to order up the entire menu because everything just sounded so good. I loved that they had a seasonal, menu so I decided to try their eggs with ham over a bed of asparagus that also included some very crispy bits of bacon and two small but perfectly toasted pieces of sourdough. The meal was perfect I had my eggs cooked sunny side up and the flavor profile was very savory and delicious, I'm usually not a fan of Dijon mustard but they has added just the right amount of Dijon-aise (dijon/mayonnaise) and I actually quite enjoyed it, I had to re-evaluate why I ever disliked it in the first place. It was so good I practically licked my plate clean. The staff here is friendly & attentive, they have a second location in pleasanton too which also has great service IMO; love the consistency! The inside is a bit small but modern & they have outdoor seating which is nice. line can get long but they move it along pretty quickly. If you've never been to either please check them out and don't forget to try the graham cracker latte (trust) even comes with cute little latte art which I'm a sucker for :) will be back! read more

My husband and I decided to try something new for brunch on Saturday morning/afternoon. It was very busy, which is always a good sign. I had been here once before, a long time ago, but just for a coffee so I was excited to try food. The girl helping us to our table was incredibly sweet and we could tell she really cares about her job and the patrons that come in. Super refreshing. He ordered the turkey pesto panini which came with a salad and I ordered the turkey avocado sandwich which i chose soup for as my side. I had the tomato soup. He was a little disappointed that his panini had so much extra bread in the middle and didn't seem to be too pressed, but he said it tasted good nonetheless. He felt the vinegreitte on the salad was a little too vinegar-y and didn't quite go well with the sandwich. I thought my sandwich and the soup were both really enjoyable. A good size, all ingredients were super fresh, and the pesto was delicious. The tomato soup had great flavor and a good consistency as well. I ordered a latte which was very good, and my husband ordered the cappuccino which he also very much enjoyed. I have tried the turmeric latte in the past which was extremely good. It's super cute in here, the menu is large, and the staff is all super friendly and helpful. I'm excited to go back and try some of their more breakfast-y items next time. read more

SOLID five starts. Just look at the photo. Pro Tip - when you order the Chia Pet Pudding, by default they add maple syrup. Sometimes a lot of it. If you are looking to cut some simple sugars, there is still tons of flavor in this dish without the bonus maple. Of course it is good but just a note in case cutting extra sugar is a priority in your life. Another tip - the lady that made this one is the boss of the bosses and I think her name is Rebecca. I would use this photo as the standard of what you want to get as this bowl was epic! read more

Wow it's really busy spot parking is a bit hard on the street but there is a garage parking just need to walk a little which is not bad.

The press can really impress! Tasty and delicious. Healthy and white outside of one bakery with some sweetened flavor that I believe was just an extra spice. Pleasant customer service that politely offered us to sit outside because we had our beautiful puppy with. Great choice of fresh fruit selection, and excellent tomato basil soup that was perfect in taste. Carrot cake was outstanding for dessert. This place has such a good reputation that we drove all the way from Walnut Creek for a tasty brunch. read more

The coffee mochi muffin was an eye catcher from the pastry display but it lacked flavor and sweetness. The matcha latte on the other hand was really good and flavorful!

If I'm being honest, the quality of both the food and drink has decreased a little. I remember *really* enjoying the matcha last time I came, but it tasted more milky than anything else this time. My sibling had to order a new drink because the chai they originally ordered tasted weird. However, I do really enjoy the overall atmosphere, especially when you sit outside on a nice day. The food was not bad, don't get me wrong, but it wasn't anything mindblowing. read more

So it's like 3.5 stars. Good is pretty but could actually taste better We got - avocado and egg toastini. I had high hopes for this as it looked so pretty but it had a cold boiled egg with solid vs soft yolk. I was expecting it to be warm. So just 3 stars. I wouldn't get it again - sweet corn toastini special. Hubby seems to like it - tomato toastini. My daughter liked it but for $10 it seems overpriced - peanut butter fruit honey toastini. My other daughter was not a fan. Basically $10 for a peanut butter honey with one piece of bread. Pricey - chai latte was good. - strawberry mocha donut. Skip it. Nothing special - cinnamon French toast. This was good Overall it did the trick to fill our tummies. I wouldn't rush back read more

The Press is good. I visited Pleasanton location many times, finally came to Livermore. Same menu which I liked: food and drinks are good. Service was great too: Cashier behind the counter who takes orders was very polite and helpful. Person who brought our food and drinks was wonderful too-- super friendly -- we stayed a little too later , they already were closing and the same gentleman came out and asked us if we want some water before they close the doors--I thought it was very thoughtful read more

*LOCATION* This lil cafe is in downtown Livermore. The surrounding area is super cute with a lot of small shops and restaurants all within walking distance. It's mostly street parking so might be a bit tricky during peak hours. *WAIT TIME* My girl friend and I decided to come here last Saturday in between our wine tasting sessions. We visited around 1:45pm and there were only 1-2 parties ahead of us in line to order. After we placed our orders, we decided to seat ourselves outside since it was a nice day. *FOOD* -Smoked turkey pesto panini: toasted sandwich with a decent amount of filling, nice hint of house pesto in each bite -Seasonal strawberry peach caprese toastini: the honey-drizzled fresh fruits paired well with the house-made ricotta, this dish was my favorite! -Press house chopped salad: the crisp tart apples was a nice contrast to the sweet beets and oranges, the only downside to this salad was that a lot of the spring mix leaves were yellow :( -Latte: nice and refreshing on a hot day! -Hibiscus lemonade: forgot to ask what my friend thought of this drink (oops!) *SERVICE* Not a lot of service since we order at the counter and seat ourselves. The drinks and food did come out fast though! *AMBIENCE* The interior is simple but really cute. This is definitely the perfect spot for weekend brunch with the girls! read more

Really cute place to have a quick brunch with friends! The service is quick and the food is tasty, definitely give this place a visit if you're in Livermore! We were coming back from a morning of fruit picking, and this was a place that was conveniently close. They have a pretty large menu, and I ended up getting a honey bee sting panini. It was really tasty, and they really loaded it up on the honey! It was really sticky but complemented the salami well. I definitely would come back to try their other items. Their lavender lemonade was also really cute and delicious, and was very refreshing in the heat. read more

Absolutely fantastic! My girlfriend and I stopped here for lunch after getting some massages and facials at the Purple Orchid Spa and what a perfect spot to end our relaxing spa treatment! Love the bright, modern, open and inviting ambience. The staff were all incredibly friendly and helpful. Everything looked delicious, making it difficult to decide on what to order. Little did I know, I was able to order two different halves of panini sandwiches,. I decided on 1/2 of the turkey blt and then 1 1/2 of the bacon dill pickle. It came with a side salad. Everything was hands-down EXCELLENT!! If only they could have restaurants like this in our town of Brentwood!! This is a restaurant that is well worth the drive out to again.

Service: no issues, the most notable crew member on service was the man who handed our dishes. Food: my friends liked their dishes. However, I was not impressed with my items. The Fry Up: Comes with either bacon, ham, or avocado. I asked if I could do two options: Bacon and Avocado (extra $2). And eggs over medium. Bland A* The eggs were the best part, although only half of the eggs were over medium, but more well if anything.. The eggs were peppered and that was the only salvage. Although the tomatoes were seasoned on top: the rest of it was not giving. Mushrooms were bland.. the whole dish was just an F+ - Iced Chai Latte: base wasn't good. And too much cinnamon. My friends didn't like my drink. - One of my friends got the Avocado + Seeds dish: it was messy A*, none of the seeds stayed on. Artisanal? Sure. Practical, sensible bites? No. Delivers? No. - Willing to try other things in the future but my items were a bust. - If you're looking for a cute spot to eat: go for it, just don't get what I ordered. read more
