Brekkie sanwhich is amazing on a soft, fluffy brioche bun. The bacon was layered with flavor 😋 tasted like regular bacon with Canadian bacon, yellow type of cheese and a real egg 🥚 😋 👌 paired nice woth the Chai. If tou haven't been here, going out of your way is worth it. Free parking included. …
A chill, unassuming spot with a retro vibe and fantastic coffee. Friendly service and there is never much of a wait. It’s a great spot for getting a quick coffee or for sitting on their benches and chatting with fellow customers or a friend. I tend to stop off on my morning walk with my dog. I should mention I’m a latte drinker so I haven’t tried their drip, but I’m pretty picky about my espresso and theirs doesn’t disappoint.
This UPS Store location is very convenient and reliable for shipping packages, printing labels, and handling returns. The staff is friendly, patient, and always ready to help with packaging or choosing the right shipping option. Even when it’s busy, the line moves quickly because the employees work efficiently. The store is clean, organized, and has everything you may need—boxes, tape, envelopes, and printing services. A great place for fast and professional shipping.
Great local vibe. Easy access for bikers. Laid back atmosphere with shaded seating to enjoy a coffee. The decor is thoughtful (love the pop of the pink lids and photography exhibition ). I ordered a double espresso and it was deliciously creamy. My husband got the hot chocolate and it was rich with a sweet kick. We’re definitely coming back.
This place is bursting at the seams with personality, heart, and delicious food & drink. It truly felt like part of the community which is what makes Mill valley so special.
My favorite coffee l in the North Bay by FAR! Whether traditional drinks or the seasonal caramel or sweet lattes / mochas — they nail it. Even the breakfast burritos are bomb!
Such a lovely space to grab a cup of coffee. Keith, Stacey and staff have created this space. Checks all the boxes! Great coffee, great community , with a convenient location. A highlight in my day. LM
The ambiance here is the best! So welcoming and chill. Keith and Stacie are so kind and serve up great energy along with insanely delicious coffee. They even have blankets to use if it’s a chilly morning and your chatting with the community. It is seriously the BEST start to my day. So happy to have a little UPSIDE in my daily routine!
This is my favorite spot in the area! Great coffee, great breakfast sandwich, best pastries and best of all…genuinely friendly people (Stacie! Keith! Alex!) who really make it a place you want to keep coming back to and a place that knows me (vanilla oat milk latte every time!). A great reminder your mornings don’t always need to be rushed. My favorite part of my mornings.
Best coffee, best vibes. Alex sees you coming and starts making your drink. Keith and Stacey are always coming up with cool pop ups and events + ways to give back to the community. The coffee is delicious, best in town. Try the cortado. This place is legit.
