This is an overpriced and overrated food spot. Go elsewhere if you’re looking for quality French pastries. We got a flaky pastry with a crème filling, and it was absolute trash: it tasted stale and unoriginal (I think some pillsbury DIY dessert is better than this). Cappuccino was nothing special. Only decent thing was the iced banana mocha. Overpriced (3 items cost $21). Seating was cramped, and they looked like they were still setting up. Do not recommend.
It’s a small cafe that has a lot of sweets and desserts. Some of the best tasting desserts in the area. It’s located right in the Santana Row strip so it’s nice to snack off and walk around the area. They have sandwiches, desserts, and coffee. It’s a bit pricey but kind of expected for the Santana Row area. We got a cream cheese croissant and a coffee for about $16. Overall, a great place but could be a bit crowded in the evening. A nice place for an evening stroll.
This coffee shop is in a great location. Has a wide variety of pastries and a decent selection of coffee drinks.He sat outside and santana has great people watching, but the traffic sounds are pretty loud. The food and drinks are fairly delicious and well made. But the outside chairs are really uncomfortable, not so much possibility for lingering.
I recently stopped by Cocola Bakery at Santana Row and was genuinely impressed. Their strawberry croissant is exceptional — beautifully flaky, golden layers with a real fruit flavor that tastes fresh, not overly sweet. The balance between buttery pastry and light strawberry filling is perfect. The café itself feels elegant and relaxed, with friendly service and a nice spot to sit and enjoy coffee. Prices are on the higher side, but the quality easily justifies it. Even as a first-time visitor, it’s clear why this bakery has such a strong reputation. Cocola is worth the stop — especially if you appreciate a perfectly made croissant.
