The food here is great, and the service is both fast and friendly. This place tends to be quite busy, so it's a good idea to allow extra time for parking. We ordered an egg sandwich, a pesto chicken sandwich and a chicken Cobb salad. The ingredients were fresh and delicious. There is plenty of outdoor seating, but it's wise to bring a jacket on a cold day.

Located in a plaza with ample parking. Fresh tasting food with friendly staff. Very chill and cool atmosphere good for a get together with friends or just to spend some time doing work. You seat yourself after ordering at the counter and they bring out your food. They have breakfast foods, sandwiches, and a variety of drinks. The picture is their turkey avocado provolone. Delicious. In case the indoors is full, they also have a back patio. Wish they had a location in the south bay!

I had a hot lavender latte with almond milk & my daughter had an iced lavender lemonade. We both love their peanut butter & jelly cookies. This place is always packed; long lines, no place to sit, and parking is difficult but worth it. The staff is always friendly & attentive. I’m giving them 4 stars on the atmosphere because it can feel congested, but the food and drinks are incredibly delicious!

I’ve been a regular at The Press since 2018, visiting both the old and new locations in Pleasanton. Whether I’m with friends, family, or just stopping by, I’ve never been disappointed. The food is always amazing, with my favorites being the tomato soup, avocado and citrus crostini, and various paninis. Truly the best brunch spot in the Bay Area!

This is a very well designed cafe I’ve been too! They specialize delicious toast and sandwiches. I can kinda tell that they did a good job with their business, which is why there are so many people dining here. The staff are professional to their customers. They also have a patio at the back of the restaurant. They also have other types of menus like Seasonal Specials and Weekend Brunch if you’re into more something special. Since it’s my first time here, I decided to go ordinary. They did well with how they spread the toast and how the toppings don’t easily fall apart when hand holding it. Coming from someone who lives in Fremont, this is a great cafe for locals around Pleasanton! Will definitely come back to try their sandwiches and pastries.

The OG location of my absolute favorite lunch cafe! I personally love to come here and get the panini half and half so I get to try two sandwiches for the price of one. I love the dill pickle bacon sandwich, salami pesto, and the turkey Rueben. I also recently had their frittata and it was truly excellent! Like way better than any other one I’ve ever had! One cool thing you may not immediately notice is that this place has a huge rear patio with a ton of seating and heaters! It’s usually not packed, cause if you know you know! I just wish they were open Sundays so I didn’t have to make the trek out to Livermore to get my fix!

The drinks were delicious but the prices paired with the food isn't really worth it. The egg shrimp and grits was about $20, while it is a good bit of food the grits are 5 minute grits with little seasoning. All in all, I wish there was more flavor for what you got... and better grits...

The food was okay nothing exceptional or unique about it. We ordered Tomato Basil Toastini, Avocado Pesto Cheese Panini, and iced latte. It is a nice place to grab a quick bite. They have plenty of options to choose from. I was not happy with the quantity of the food. Each dish felt barely enough for just one person. The place has pretty good vibe, very crowded on the weekends. If you are in the area, I would recommend checking it out once.

The Press cafe is a cozy little cafe with fresh food options and a warm, welcoming vibe. The staff are friendly, the atmosphere is relaxed, and the avocado egg toast is a standout. Perfect for a quiet morning or a casual catch-up.

Hot cocoa is milk with a hint of chocolate. Breakfast queso tacos were..fine. My mother enjoyed the GF avocado toast and we’d be back purely for the gluten-free options they have available for her.

The staff were very friendly and attentive. The atmosphere is casual and comfortable. Seating options inside and outside. Not many vegan options, but they make a nice cappuccino that you can get with almond milk. The food was okay, but a few tweaks to the dishes we ordered would’ve elevated the items/taste. The avocado toast was too hard/chewy to easily eat without seeds on the top going all over the place. Also a drizzle of balsamic glaze/vinegar would have been a nice addition. The avocados were fresh and the seed mix was a nice touch, just too many of them. The breakfast plate with ham was disappointing. The ham was thinly sliced and dry. The eggs were bland and the taste and texture of the miatake mushroom was off-putting. The staff said they were working on updating the menu next year and were likely going to replace that mushroom. Also the pastries were okay, but nothing spectacular.

Overpriced menu options with terrible drinks. The iced matcha and vanilla lattes were an absolute disappointment, both tasting like 90% milk. The bee sting panini was okay, with a nice layer of honey spread on top. But it is really just a couple slices of salami and tomato between mediocre bread. As for the salmon toastini, the goat cheese added a sour flavor that did not go down well. The staff are friendly, but if you're hungry then don't waste your time here and toast a sandwich at home instead.
