Cafe Borrone is apparently a favorite of many of the startup titans of the bay area. I read mention of it the other day and I was going to add it to my list… when I realized, I’ve been here before, quite a few times, to meet friends who live in the area.  And it is, indeed, a great place to get coffee (or food).

Cafe Borrone has a great outdoor patio, as well as indoor seating.  There’s a parking garage adjacent, and they’re also a short walk from the Menlo Park train station.  The desserts are fantastic, but they might distract you from getting a really nice latte or mocha to sip while you catch up with friends.  I should thank my friends Kristin and Riz for introducing me to this place.

There are over 470 yelp reviews, with over 350 of them being 4 or 5 stars.
