Jackie ArseneauApril 9, 2013Ham and cheese scramble was very tasty. Latte was delicious. Right next to Caltrain so a great place for breakfast before heading off for a day in the city (SF). Friendly service too.
Serious EatsSeptember 9, 2013Menlo Park's great café that's perfect for every occasion and THE place to dine al fresco. Above all else, get a sandwich on the homemade focaccia and a coffee drink with the mythical whipped cream.
Lee YiMay 1, 2015Try the Fish Sandwich - Yummy crispy cod and sauce has great flavor. Veggies fresh and crunchy and tasty. This was a daily so might not be available when you visit. (via @Foodspotting)
Nice atmosphere with outdoor seatings. Get the Lorraine Quiche! It's probably one of the best quiche I have ever tried.
Their most famous sandwich is the Gouda and it’s delicious! On focaccia and is pretty decadent - splittable for two people who eat smaller portions.
The Cafe Borrone (mocha + whipped cream + almonds) and Frosted Mocha (like a coffee chocolate shake) are classics. Waffles for bfast and brunch also delicious.
Priscilla HarrimanJuly 12, 2011This is an enjoyable cafe to relax at with friends or alone, with a large terrace and "European/California feel". Delicious, fresh food, great desserts and lots of choice. Well situated, next to Keple Read more
Great cafe to spend time reading while having a cup of soup or coffee
Explore their espresso bar menu! Cafe Borgia (w/ orange) and Cappuccino SF (w/ chocolate) are some of my favorite.
DavidJuly 28, 2019I love coming here on a lazy afternoon and having a glass of wine and a small plate. Always a great selection.
Layth SudApril 12, 2011Great breakfast lunch. Coffee is very decent. Atmosphere is great. No wifi, but there r open wifi around, sometimes good. Only one outlet inside on corner next to glass windows. Great meeting place
NathanApril 19, 2015Fantastic granola for breakfast, get it with fresh fruit and snag a seat outside to enjoy it.
Sherry LiSeptember 28, 2015Long line on weekends but moves quickly. The scrambles are good and the waffles look amazing!
The server here during weekdays is super nice too. I don't see how people can be that friendly at 7am, but she is. My new favorite place when I'm in town.
My favorite items are the fruit tart, frosted mocha, chicken salad sandwich, chicken pot pie, and minestrone soup.
Tobias SchmidtAugust 9, 2018The place has a nice vibe to it. Their drip coffee is a bit of an overroasted, bitter need though #coffeeSnob
Sarmishtha SinhaApril 7, 2013Their waffles are really good. They also serve freshly squeezed orange juice which was a pleasant surprise.- Great place, but what type of cafe in a college town closes at 5:00 pm on Sundays and Mondays?
Everything is good, especially the sausages. Love the outdoor seating and the vibe
Robert RoweJune 20, 2011...for breakfast, the #6 Scrambled Eggs with spinach & feta cheese is my favorite choice, as I add bacon to it! So good... Read more- Varouzhan EbrahimianDecember 15, 2013Great outside sitting, perfect place for a casual business meeting during the day.
Get the ham and Swiss or the chicken salad sandwich. Make sure to also try their berry tart!!!- Ryan SchmidtDecember 24, 2013The frosted mocha is delicious but you'll end up needing a couple. Too good for such a small glass.
Delicious breakfasts in the morning. Some of the best coffee in the area. Visit kepler's books next door.
Ludi ChowDecember 2, 2012Tri-tip and pulled pork are both good, frosted mocha also highly recommended.
For lunch, the Gouda sandwich is great. I like mine on whole wheat bread.
If you like Borrone you might want to check out Station One in Woodside. Same management. Great upper end dining experience without feeling snooty.
David HoltzJuly 1, 2016Cool sort of European vibe. Good place to kill time while waiting for the train.
Great pork belly tonight. Comes with creamy polenta and a deglazed red wine sauce with wilted greens!
Get a chocolate covered almond biscotti with your favourite coffee.
Kristen WJanuary 29, 2013Make sure you check your teeth after drinking their famous frosted mocha. Seriously, go have a look. You're welcome.
Idan BenaimNovember 23, 2011Great place for breakfast, lunch or coffee. Free wifi as well. Check out oLyfe to see pictures, tweets, tips and realtime updates.

The lasagna bolognese here is INCREDIBLE! It's unfair to other lasagnas out there. Yes, even your mother's.
