Dana Street Roasting Company - Mountain View, California

The service isn't super fast and the coffee isn't quite as good as 1oz a couple blocks away but my friends and I much prefer Dana Street for the atmosphere here. There's lots of comfy seating, the owner is typically serving, the baristas are deliciously weird and there's a massive coffee roaster in the corner which makes it feel legit.

The coffee bean taste and aroma are evident with every sip, offering a fresh sensation. I like their balance of cappuccino —it’s foamy yet doesn’t overpower the espresso. Local, casual, relaxed vibes inside makes you feel like your go-to neighborhood coffee shop. Plenty of seats, with some outdoor seating available when weather permits. Baristas are friendly too.

Those guys deserve 5 stars! Latte has a great mild taste, not burnt or bitter at all. They use medium roast for their expresso. The gent at the register, barista, and the owner are all lovely people. After Australia I cannot drink coffee in most USA shops since coffee in most places is horrible. Thankfully I found this place.

Good coffee. It's fairly subtle in flavour, but still complex. Pretty cheap compared to other coffee shops out there as well. No indoor seating here though, so that was a bit of a letdown. There's some tables and chairs outside, but it's right next to the street, so the vibe isn't there. Otherwise, great service and short lines. This spot is decent for a quick grab-n-go

Dana Street Roasting is by far the best coffee roaster in the South Bay. If you buy beans with a "roasted on" date, this is the definitive place to buy freshly roasted beans. They custom pack so you don't have to buy prepackaged sizes. You can custom mix if you like (I do a half caffeine mix so I can enjoy doppio with a single shot caffeine hit). They have an excellent selection of beans, the roasts are not burned (even dark roasts), prices are very competitive, and the roaster is right there for you to see. Best I have experienced in the entire Bay Area. Highly recommended.

This place somehow continues to be a hidden gem, still yet to be discovered by many. I lived in the bay area for 9 years and sadly, only discovered this in the last 3 or so by word of mouth. I'm doing you a favor by doing the same 😉 I relocated to the Tahoe area 2 years ago and still make it a point to drop in for a chai or latte or cafe borgia. I even purchase the espresso beans from time to time to make it at home in Tahoe. Chai is authentic, steeped in the usual spices for hours with just a hint of honey. Because of this, it's spice forward and DELICIOUS. Their espresso drinks are phenomenal and I'm picky.

this is one of the few original coffee houses that existed before the invasion of. McStarbucks.

super causal, great coffee, stuff to eat. I prefer places like this over chain places any time.
