Coffeebar

California

A curated, modern cafe inspired by the coffee bars of Europe—but with a funky, industrial twist.

There’s a distinct warmth and vibrancy here, inspired by afternoons spent in quintessential coffee houses lining the streets of Italy. Dark and rough-hewn woods, leather, and copper accents augment the refined yet comfortable atmosphere, where all feel welcomed and relaxed.

The central space is defined by a graphic collage of terrazzo walls and countertops accompanied by swaths of steel, cypress shelving, and funky marquee menus. The original concrete floor has been highly polished for a contemporary layer with time-worn character.

At the heart of the cafe, a live-edge communal table encourages patrons to pause for a moment, while a bicycle chain chandelier suspended above the wine bar nods to Silicon Valley’s bike culture and the plethora of cyclists who frequent the cafe.

Outside, a palette of steel, cypress, and glass transforms the coffee bar into a local destination. Elliptical louvers, blackened metal, and honey-hued wood siding complement the sophisticated, industrial experience inside.
