I love to order a light meal and glass of wine, and sit outside and people watch. The food is always nice, if a little pricey. Cap it off with a visit to Keplers next door and you have a relaxing urban afternoon.
This place is a Menlo Park institution. Great for coffee or a light meal. Live music some evenings.
Their hot chocolate is excellent! Very large serving size served in a nice glass with great presentation. Atmosphere is very relaxed and the place is very clean. Feels very upscale.
Great food. The frosted mocha is amazing and the veggie melt is my favorite. Go early or they can run out of stuff.
Great food and customer service, best croissants I ever had
Excellent food, casual setting.. popular on the weekends... Plan for time to get through the line on weekends
Plenty of outdoor seating, great selection of food. I got the banana pancakes and coffee cake and was not disappointed.
Great place to meet up. Inside is a tad loud. Outside is wonderful when the elements line up: sometimes it's too windy or too hot. But lots of space, solid coffee and a reasonably extensive menu. The best place in Menlo Park all things considered. Parking around the corner (north of the Cafe) underg...
Their waffles and freshly squeezed orange juice are delicious!
Best coffe spot in Menlo Park. Lots of menu options with good coffees.
Favorite breakfast place in Menlo Park, love their Mexican Mochas.
There's not much for anyone with gluten sensitivity
I'm surprised at the reviews, I found the food pretty bad/mediocre and extremely busy. There is definitely better in Palo Alto.
Delicious food and friendly service! I have really enjoyed their french toast as well as their omelets for brunch. For lunch I've loved their salads--super fresh ingredients and delicious flavors!
Pretty good tea and coffee. Pretty good parties and edibles. Terribly crowded with long waits and inadequate bathrooms for the massive crowds. Kind of expensive. Not really worth the crowds they attract?
Great food though the prices are a bit high. Still, I've been there several times and have never been disappointed.
Food is very good, and the atmosphere is great. The cashiers are friendly and helpful. I've never been disappointed after coming here.
I went back never I enjoyed their salad and sandwich combo.I asked the cashier if there was a vegan option and he recommended the roasted eggplant sandwich. It wasn't until I was almost the bites into it when I discovered there was bacon in the sandwich.
Good place to have lunch and to get your fix for a sweet tooth when in Menlo Park.
Love it, great food, staff is very friendly. Popular place do seating can be challenging & tight
The quality of the food is always on point! Service and speed for such a busy place is terrific!
Hasn't changed.. This place is wonderful for coffee and lite meals. Close to the bookstore if you want to read while you have a coffee.
Veggie sandwich was amazing! Even leftovers were too!!
Tasty waffle!
But they don't have high chair.
Decent place in Menlo Park to get breakfast. Also their breakfast menu end at noon so plan to get there early.
Nice Cafe located next to Kepplers Books. Good food, fun people watching, and a good outdoor area that's great on a nice day.
Incompetent, inconsiderate, arrogant service and management is all I have to say about them.
Good selection of great food, excellent coffee (for the US), very friendly staff.
The food is decent, but they don't have amenities for children that you'd expect from a location like this. They don't have high chairs or booster seats and they don't have changing tables in the bathrooms. I was told by their staff if I wanted a child to sit at a table I'd have to do so outside by...
I ADORE THIS PLACE :)
I love going here for breakfast/brunch! Check to make sure they're open though because a couple of times I went and they were closed ): Parking might be a little difficult, street parking or there is a parking garage nearby. They have A LOT of tables outside so SIT OUTSIDE! ...
So good. I love the waffle with mixed berries and real maple syrup. Nothing beats getting a table outside on a nice day.
The chicken chimichurri is off the charts delicious!
Cafe Barrone is such a great little spot for outdoor lunch. Highly recommend the club sandwich (served on their soft focaccia, yum). The staff is always helpful and friendly!
Been visiting cafe since it open eons ago. Always great. Breakfast, lunch, drinks and dinner. You can't go wrong.
For me I've never really liked Cafe Barone's I'm from Menlo Park and I feel out of place when I go there anyways the staff was very friendly everybody was working hard very clean bunch of places to sit I personally don't order food there because I think it's a little over price like I said in my pas...
Their french toast is great. I go there twice every week.
Good food, great place to hang out on a nice afternoon
Great location, fantastic patio and place to meet and snack - next to great bookstore
A very good place. Great food and wine. The people are very nice.
Good food, great coffee, excellent service, great locy
I drive from MV just for their Latte and their scramble eggs
Awesome spot for a casual brunch, lunch, or even just a coffee after browsing through Kepler's Books next door.
Perhaps a little pricey, but the food is good and the atmosphere perfect. Salmon bagel and waffles are great for brunch.
Pricey pricey. But yummy. Would rather go to satura cakes tbh
Solid food, but come for the brunch. Their belgian waffles are to die for.
Great atmosphere for a cafe. For a sunny morning or day in Menlo Park, this is a great place to stop by to take in the atmosphere or get a good bite to eat.
Nice Cafe for any meal, they make great soup and egg dishes. Service is pretty fast and usually good, although sometimes they forget things.
Great cafe, you feel like you're in Europe when you're here. However, it is grossly overpriced.
Afternoon sun can be harsh, fountain is loud. Interesting people, Picturesque place to meet.
Love Cafe Borrone! Always make a visit anytime I'm the Bay area. Always have a fresh selection of specials, good espresso, and friendly staff.
Be prepared to wait at least 10 minutes in a line to get very good breakfast at weekend
Our favorite place for Saturday breakfast. Could be crowded.
Extremely crowded place for maybe-better-than-average breakfast...the magic of Bay area. I would give it a 3.5. If it wasn't crowded, it'd be a 4.
Good atmosphere, decent food. Could use better sandwiches
Had an awesome weekend breakfast. Nice location and busy.
Kind of over-rated, not a place to work at, very loud
Awesome location, menu and staff. Mexicans mocha's are delicious. The frosted mocha's are crazy good too!! Only one thing missing is wifi. :( there's no wifi and keplers next door hardly works don't even try.)
Lots of people, not enough places to sit on a gold windy day.vwoukd recommend for a sunny day so you can sit in the courtyard
