Sue’s Gallery Cafe

Super cute café in Saratoga! I’ve been seeing everyone’s instagram posts from this place and it’s truly that adorable. There’s mini cactus’s everywhere and a variety of books to use for props in your photos. Or you could actually read them — there’s quite a wide selection of topics and they’re pretty interesting.
I stopped by here with several friends to grab some coffee and chill. My friends got the affogato which was absolutely delicious! The green tea matcha latte is also a must try.
Since some of the seating is connected to the outdoors there’s actually a lot of flies and it’s slightly annoying sitting there.

One of my new favorite spots in the Bay!
I’ve always wondered why the South Bay has been so slow to picking up on the trendy coffee shop movement. FINALLLLY.
This place is definitely a gem. It’s a tad bit «off the beaten path» meaning it is not directly in Downtown Saratoga but it is close enough that if you park somewhere in the downtown area, you can walk to this café.
It is absolutely ADORABLE. Such a perfect, bi-​level space. Half open air, half indoors… with a beautiful corner of pottery/​succulents and plants/​art. The rest of the space is clean + minimalist. It feels naturey + organic, but not overdone.
The iced coffee with soy milk was excellent. The wifi was strong and there were outlets as well. The little baked goods and pastries also looked great, but I wasn’t hungry enough to try anything. Next time, for sure!
Overall — really loved this place, and excited to come back everytime I’m in the Bay!

Awesome coffee and treats, even better atmosphere and staff. This place is located on the edge of Saratoga near the mountain road making it a super chill place to study. The place doubles as a succulent and pottery vendor which is a nice touch. Almost all the tableware is homemade and really enhances the experience. The staff are really attentive and make sure your drink is made perfectly. When I come in the mornings I’m usually greeted cheerfully by Sergio and Ryan. They definitely know their coffee, so if you’re a coffee head, this place is definitely for you! My favorite thing to get here is the pour over. I usually ask the barista which beans are good and base my decision off that. All in all this place is a great place to get into that flow state and get some work done or simply just enjoy you’re morning coffee in the deep of nature.

If all cafes were like this, tinder would go out of business. From the open patio to the rustic pottery lining the shelves inside, Sue’s is the perfect meditation, first date, library, and wanderlust destination. Ordered a pot of green tea that was quilted in the subtle earthiness from the ceramic spout. No sugar, please.
Looking forward to coming back whenever I’m in the area. Next time you swipe right in Saratoga, take bae here and the rest will be history.

Found this cute coffee shop after going to the Japanese garden. They have a very nice interior and this place was pretty pact. They have plenty of sitting inside, outside, and upstairs. I ordered their green tea latte and my friend ordered the ice green tea. They ran out of their glass cup for the ice drink, so they have me a free drink coupon for next time.

This place is very cute, a hipster’s dream I must say. It reminds me of those San Francisco loft-​style cafes, like Plentea or St. Frank’s.
So it is around downtown Saratoga, so parking is definitely a pain. The café has a lot of seating, there are a lot of tables in an outdoor porch area, but their indoor seating is pretty limited and a bit cramped. There is an tiny upstairs area looking downstairs with a few seats too which is pretty cool. There is a restroom if I recall correctly, and a few outlets, so that contributes to a nice studying environment. The workers are alright, not too friendly or rude. The place is decked out in pottery and succulents which you can also buy I think. Very cute and the overall vibe brightens your mood.
Their menu is pretty extensive for coffee, but I opted for an iced matcha. For $ 4.50 + tax, it is a bit pricey, but granted they are a fancier café. My matcha came out more milky and sweet than I preferred, but it definitely wasn’t bad. You can also order some pastries and snacks, which I did not try.
Overall, this place is cute, but the area is a little bit inconvenient, and the prices are a bit on the higher side so I probably would only come here occasionally with friends or something.

This place is like a dream come true!
Well that’s my interpretation. Turning two things you love into a cute shop. Ceramics and coffee! Yes! Sue, you are my type of person :)
Staff is super friendly. I called in advance to secure an orange brioche and I’m so glad I did. That thing is TASTY! The orange is nice, but the cream and size of it is really good. Yum yum yum… So light to eat too.
My Aztec mocha was perfectly made. And it was tasty. I didn’t know what to order, but the cashier barista let me smell the chocolate powder mix and I was like, «okay! That one».
Then I sat and enjoyed my items and read on my phone. They have more tables upstairs.
The whole space is very pretty. Everything is great. I look forward to going back!
Ps-Sue’s signature on the bottom of the latte cups is sooooooo cool.

Had the genmaicha tea, and toast with earl grey jam & yuzu jam. Toast was light and fluffy. Yuzu jam was pretty good and reminded me of orange marmalade. Earl grey jam was alright. Total order came out to be $ 8. They also have frequent visitor cards, something like buy 7, get one free.
Nice outdoor seating area and indoor area with natural lighting. Place was filled with people studying or meeting friends. They also sell a variety of small cactus plants.

The coffee tastes good but the place is a bit noisy. The sunshine and greens outside the really huge window make people relax.
Nice little place to get away!

I CAN SPEND FOREVER IN THIS PLACE. Oh my gosh. I visited after seeing multiple Instagram pictures of this place and after it made an appearance on the Top 10 South Bay Coffee Shops list.
This place is just ADORABLE.
My boyfriend and my’s order:
Aztec mocha
Sightglass «New Guinea» coffee
Toast w/​Earl Grey Milk Jam and Orange Marmalade (?)
Toast w/​Garlic Butter (?) and Regular Salted Butter (?)
Kouignamann (Carmelized dense croissant)
Drinks were exceptional. +1 for the cute foam art on the mocha! Toast was… Toast. But the spreads were something else! What blew me away the most was the Earl Grey Milk Jam– in my words… It was a milk tea jam! WONDERFUL. They also sell it for $ 10 a jar– yes, I bought one.
The kouignamann was just as delicious as you can imagine it to be. However, I do wish that it was warmed.
The store front itself is a bit small, but is totally cute. I can totally picture myself as a 70 year old waking up in Saratoga and walking to this place to have a morning coffee.
Will definitely be back!!!

I’VE BEEN LOOKING FOR A PLACE LIKE THIS IN THE SOUTH BAY FOREVER. It’s a bit far from me, but worth the drive.
This place is great to come and ready or study. Quality drinks as well.
Impeccable décor. I am obsessed with the space– it’s so tasteful. I prefer the upstairs.

My friend wanted to show off how cute Saratoga is by bringing me to this little gem of a coffee shop/​ceramic gallery. I ordered an iced coffee and my friend got a chai latte — both were great! Didn’t have room for any of their baked goods but will definitely make a point to try one on my next visit because they looked sooo yummy!
I love the interior of this café — tons of natural light and there is a cool space upstairs with seats if there isn’t room downstairs. All of the ceramic pieces are beautiful and handcrafted by Sue!
There are a selection of books & magazines to peruse through. +1 star for having Calvin & Hobbes! :)
Tip for social media fiends: I think Saratoga has some of the best Snapchat filter options. Go cray.

Grad school has led me to start coffee hopping more instead of bar hopping. I’m always on the look out for chill coffee shops to study at and Sue’s definitely makes the list!
Ya know you gotta check Sue’s Gallery out when your instagram is blowing up with it’s green tea latte. The interior is very artsy and the tables all have their own succulents (perfect for instagram pictures). I also like how they have artworks displayed on one side of the room. It really makes you feel like you’re in an upscale and super fancy coffee shop. I just wish that Sue’s had more tables because it does get crowded pretty easily.
I got the green tea latte and I was definitely not disappointed. It had the perfect blend of milk and tea. Plus, it came in a super cute ceramic cup!

This place is awesome! I’ve been looking for a coffee shop to study and just enjoy a good cup of coffee at in South Bay for awhile and heard about this shop from a friend. I wasn’t sure what to expect given that it is in the deep end of downtown Saratoga but it sure was a super pleasant find.
I visited the coffee shop over a month ago and haven’t had the chance to go back yet, but I’ll be sure to visit this place in the coming weeks when I need to get some studying done. When I was there, I was one of two customers (7PM on Sunday, go figure) so the service was stellar (though I’m assuming with the waiters’ enthusiasm, they always have good service. I got a green tea latte and under the shop’s recommendation, a peach pastry. I forgot to try their monako ice cream sandwich but definitely will on a warmer day. Please come and check this place out — and support the local mom and pop shops of South Bay!
5 stars, for ambience, the quality of food and coffee and tea, and their customer service.
It’s a bit harder to find parking given that its downtown Saratoga, but just walk a bit or be patient and one will show up.

This is a gem of a café with the bonus of cute plants in pebble pots and other pottery for sale. The crafts are all made by the owner, Sue, and are mostly eco-​friendly for a down-​to-​earth feel and vibe.
I love any of their drinks, but the pomegranate detox is refreshing to counter the sugar in their delectable bread pudding, kouign-​amann, and monako ice cream sandwich with a flavor of your choice.
Wi-​fi is free. So, feel free to lounge around upstairs, downstairs, or outside with outlets on the walls to charge your devices. Service is friendly, helpful, and excited to work and serve you with joy on all their faces. I’ll definitely come back since this is now officially my favorite café in Saratoga that’s worth a trek visiting!

I LOVE THIS PLACE!!!
Big windows, lots of natural light, cute succulents on every table, and amazing coffee, pastries, and treats served in beautiful ceramics; what more can you ask for?
So far I’ve had the cappuccino (my go-​to drink, which I use as my comparison point between coffee shops), the caramel latte (perfectly creamy and the caramel was not overpowering at all), a pour-​over (I think it was the… Ethiopia? can’t be sure but it was delicious), and the orange brioche (light but still flavorful with the orange and just a touch of cream filling). All of it was so good. No complaints about anything here!
Staff is all super friendly. Not only do they know their way around an espresso machine, but they just seem like genuinely nice people. I was working on my laptop at one of the tables downstairs, and the sun was beating down pretty hard so it got really warm, and one of the guys came and pulled down the shades without me even having to ask.
The space itself is considerably small, and it’s getting so popular that It’s kind of hard to find a place to sit sometimes! Hopefully these guys are looking into expanding or opening up a second location sometime soon… ;)

I’m usually skeptical if I see a place with an overall rating of 5 stars but trust me this place is worth it. Like, there’s literally nothing to complain about here.
The café décor is extremely unique in that it functions both as a pottery shop and a coffee joint. Drinks and food are served in their own pottery which is SO COOL. The feel of the place is very minimal, but elegant with all of the pottery pieces. True hipster haven.
I actually didn’t try any of the drinks, just their matcha ice cream which was good and aesthetically pleasing. But I only heard good things about the coffee from friends.
I foresee Sue’s being here for the long run among Saratoga locals, even if situated in a kind of remote location (in that it’s in the dying downtown Saratoga, and pretty far past most businesses at that). It’s an incredibly unique and amazing experience that anyone visiting or living in the area should have!

Been wanting to come here for a while, so a gloomy day seemed like the perfect time to go!
AMBIENCE/​SPACE:
This place is pretty unassuming from the outside. It looks like an old small office building, but the inside is very modern and the décor is cute. I felt like I was in a coffeeshop in the city!
There are a few tables outside, but the inside is fairly small, ~6 tables in the first floor. The second floor «balcony» faces huge Windows for natural light, 3 tables, and a small bar table.
It’s a great place for studying or reading. There are several outlets and good wifi. It can get a little noisy from the espresso machine on first floor, so I’d try to nab a spot on the second floor if you want to stay all day!
DRINKS:
+/​-​Large caramel latte ($ 5.50) — the ceramic cup it can in was huge! It was very milky though… Could have used slightly strong espresso.
+ Medium cappuccino ($ 3.90) — a lot smaller than the large size, but had a great flavor and was frothy as a capp should be. The medium cup didn’t have a handle though… So it was hard to hold when the drink was hot.
Great place to study or catch up with friends — will be back!

This place was a little out of the way for me but the large window panes lured me in. I would love to come back on a sunnier day.
It’s one of those quaint little cafes tucked away (and do I mean tucked away) in a sleepy little street. Homely, yet modern (hipster, note the succulents everywhere). The friendly employees seem to know the employees at the neighboring shop; it makes me want to be a regular.
The barista was new, judged by his latte art abilities. However, I was pleasantly surprised by my matcha latte. It wasn’t overwhelming rich and sweet like other places. The barista was kind enough to make my matcha latte into an iced drink when he noticed that I was letting it sit cold.
Other notes:
–They have blankets!
–Super clean. I felt like they were cleaning every 3 minutes. I felt bad for shedding my human skin cells and hair follicles on their clean floor.
Parking: I went on a Thursday afternoon, so parking wasn’t too bad. It was all street parking. When I left around 7, two cars were fighting over my parking spot. Be forewarned.

This place is such a great addition to Saratoga! It’s nestled in the cute downtown area kind of further back on Big Basin Way, and in a cute woodsy quiet area. The café is beautiful with lots of sunlight and great décor.
The coffee is great. I have had soy lattes, caramel lattes, and regular drip coffee from here. The owner is so incredibly nice and welcoming. The caramel lattes are not sweet, which is such a plus because caramel can be super overpowering. The lattes have a good espresso to milk ratio. Everything is just great here. There are a lot of tables inside and out so you can come get work done here.
Sue’s is probably one of my favorite coffee shops in South Bay. A great home-​y and cozy vibe.

Not only does Sue’s have beautiful coffee drinks/​art but actual art all around her beautiful café. New café to me but could be one of my favorites now.
The first awesome thing about Sue’s is the drink selection. Mochas, matcha lattes, all made with silky almond, soy or regular milk and crafted with fun designs (great latte art).
The second awesome thing about Sue’s is her «Gallery Café» — not only a gorgeous building with views of surrounding Saratoga hills but inside the café is a hipster’s dream. The café space is small but beautifully decorated. Soft, muted colors, fresh and airy feel with lots of natural light, different types of woods and tiling, and seating in the upstairs loft, downstairs inside the café and outside in the sun.
The third great thing about Sue’s is the pottery. Unique pottery, I just found out is made by Sue herself, lines a wall for browsing and purchasing, along with use for coffee drinks. If you get a coffee or drink «for her» you are served in a quality mug designed by Sue.
Sue’s Gallery Café just has such a warm and welcoming feel, it’s hard not to love this place.
All of this aside, the drinks are pretty damn tasty, too!

Planning a trip up Highway 9 in your Miata or on your sportbike? Get your caffeine fix at Sue’s! It’ll class you up.
Sue’s is a beautiful spot at the end of downtown Saratoga with a twist on the modern coffee shop theme: it’s also a pottery gallery with many cool pieces for sale. Even the coffee cups they serve you drinks in are made of the same style of pottery as the pieces for sale. The interior of the shop has tall glass windows that make the relatively small two story loft-​style shop feel very open and airy. The outdoor seating is also very inviting.
As for the coffee: it’s good! I ordered an almond milk mocha (my standard when trying new coffee shops) and it was good with well-​done latte art. My girlfriend got a soy matcha latte which also pleased. Her’s had even better latte art _​The perks of being an attractive woman…
Despite the whole latte art issue we will definitely be back to Sue’s. Perhaps with laptops to camp out for a bit and soak in the calming atmosphere.

This is such a nice little cozy place, you wish your favorite libraries growing up were like this!
I had a mocha drink that was very tasty, Aztec I think it was called. Super friendly. People and just a really cool little hang out. I will go back and try a snack next time and bring a friend! You should too!

Adorable café that definitely caters more to its locals.
Boyf and I visited on an early Sunday morning. The place itself is really every minimalist’s dream, especially one that loves pottery and lots of natural light.
Browsing their menu, I would say that they have a nice variety, aside from the typical coffee drinks. We ended up ordering a caramel latte and a matcha latte w/​white chocolate! Only one size of drinks, and you have to pay for alternative milk options. They come in ceramic mugs & pretty latte art! :) Our two drinks ended up a little over $ 10, including the 15% off discount with Unilocal check-​in, so I would say it’s definitely not a cheap addiction.
The girl @ the cash register helping us was really enthusiastic and friendly. The store’s vibe is really calm and peaceful, and you really feel like a lot of their customers are regulars. There are two floors, but not that many seats :(There are outside options (w/​heat lamps!) though, which can be nice on a sunny day. They even offer blankets!
Parking is street only, which could be problematic on a busy time/​day?
No outside food/​drink, so don’t be silly like me and think that you can to-​go your breakfast to eat here w/​some coffee!

Love this place! This café is so clean and the aesthetic is amazing and natural with a lot of natural light and earthy feels with the succulents and wooden plates. The owner and the employees are super sweet and friendly and even brought out blankets and the heater for us when I was sitting outside.
The pastries were unique and simple but light and yummy. I had the matcha latte and am usually pretty particular about my matcha lattes but this was great! My sister had the affogato and it was strong but one of the best we’ve ever had.
Will come again to try the lavender ice cream and coffee! Highly recommend.

Dropped by Sue’s Gallery & Café for the first time today and absolutely LOVE it here! I know that I always label different coffee shops as my «favorite», but I just happen to find locations that really blow me away and this one is my favorite café byfar.
Walking into Sue’s Gallery & Café, it is a very bright lit and modern café with a beautiful arrangement of tea cups, potted plants, and more. The female cashier greeted us politely and was definitely very helpful when it came to recommending what latte was right for my friend. I ordered a Caramel Latte and my friend ordered an Aztec Coffee (not sure if this was the name, but the cashier definitely mentioned aztec). We both REALLY enjoyed our lattes and I haven’t liked a latte like this in a long time — usually, my lattes tend to be too bitter, but this one had JUST the right amount of sweetness. This place is latte heaven!
The café consists of two stories and an outdoor patio location, so you can sip on your delicious lattes outside with friends or study/​work indoors with a delicious and photo-​worthy pastry. Coming on a Tuesday afternoon, the first floor was empty, but the second floor was packed with laptop users. I would definitely suggest this place as a quiet environment where you can get work done, but I haven’t tried the Wi-​Fi out for myself so I would suggest reading other reviews!
And yes, I stood on the first floor bench to get these photos (as recommended by another Unilocal Elite who’s been here before me, heh), but it was worth it. I’m definitely recommending this place to both family and friends :)

Such a nice café!
Service was great! The ladies working made sure that my experience here was wonderful and gave me blankets since I was sitting outside (I had my dog with me). She also turned on the outside heater for me once it started to get kind of cold.
The ambiance here is also superb. Both inside and outside areas are clean, modern, and minimalistic. It was a little loud outside because of the cars, but the outside seating area is a little blocked off so it wasn’t too bad. Next time I come, I’m going to try and sit inside! :)

Great service. Came here in the morning.
Tried their house brew — it’s a dark blend. Pretty good. They don’t serve light roast coffee however could cater to your delight. Coffee they brew is from SightGlass coffee in SF — good to see these new coffee shops support our local brewery.
Orange brioche — good. Creamy cheese underneath the orange.
Almond croissant — nice fluffy
Good overall.

Nice little new café in downtown Saratoga. Love the modern décor and ambiance.
Orange brioche was pretty good along with freshly brewed Sight glass coffee. I look forward to coming back to try their espressos and other pastries.
Helpful and knowledgeable baristas. Perfect location just right down the hill from the gap. Good place to hang out for coffee after a hike, run, bike at the gap.

Sue’s is one of my favorite places to visit when in downtown Saratoga. With friendly staff, beautifully designed spaces and great coffee, this place has it all. I am happy to say that this place serves slightglass coffee as well as other special teas and pastries. The price range here is all under $ 10, but I am unsure if these prices are competitive enough with other South Bay Area coffee shops.
The space here at sue’s is quite beautiful and be sure to check the upstairs area as well. I can’t wait to visit the store when it is warm enough to open the glass wall doors! I don’t think there is any other coffee shop around that is quite like Sue’s. The gallery of hand made pottery is beautiful and it is sorta cool that the serving cups are hand made as well. It’s like you get to try out the gallery pieces before purchasing one for your own home.
This place has a few seating areas inside and upstairs in addition to several outdoor tables as well. They do have several outlets for those people who want to study at the café. Heater lamps are also available outside as well. The staff here makes all the difference for me because everyone is kind and caring. The baristas try to make your experience here one of a kind.
I’ve ordered there teas here and the barista told me that I could get refills on the tea (aka filling the pot with hot water). Refills are genuinely a rare thing at café, so I was happy to have known about this option at Sue’s. The pour overs here are also well made and they have several options of pour overs available.
If you haven’t already, make sure to stop by Sue’s! It won’t disappoint!

It’s a great place for leisure day afternoon.
I was sitting inside and had a great drink in the homemade mug. A chill afternoon.

this cute café is such a minimalist’s dream! their high ceilings with the large pane windows plus the delicious assortment of cookies pastries makes such a cozy second home. (this is what Norah Jones’ songs were made for.) I can’t believe I didn’t come sooner! I’m so glad there’s another café other than Blue Rock in Saratoga to relax n drink coffee now.
the parking looks like just street parking. if u go early in the day, I’m sure it’s not hard to find. it’s downtown Saratoga after all.
the interior is small, but quaint. the first floor has a few tables n great lighting. (yes, u Instagramers. that perfect pic can b taken here.) the owner makes her own pottery line for sale on shelves along with cookies made from Satura Cakes in Los Altos. there’s a second floor if the first floor is all full. it includes extra outlets I noticed.
did I mention they use Sightglass coffee? this is definitely a selling point for me. while the nice employee helped me pack up a vase, we chatted about how we both love Sightglass in San Francisco.
Caramel Latte: hot n DELICIOUS. not as sweet as one would think. comes in their beautiful handmade cups. definitely would order again.
Orange Brioche: soft n just the right size for a snack. the sweet glaze on top goes great with the brioche.

You know when a kid walks into a candy store googly eyed at all the sugar lining the walls? That’s me when I walked into Sue’s the first time. The small shop adorned a corner with beautiful ceramics for sale that she made herself. In addition to that were big windows and friendly welcomes and I already knew this was a place I wanted to get really comfortable in.
A man greeted us and he told us about how «See the ceramics, that’s the gallery, there’s Sue behind you sitting there, and I make the coffee, that’s the café part! And there you have Sue’s gallery and café!» They have some small cookies and other things supplied from satura cakes which was pretty awesome. He also told us about how Rich (rick…I’m so sorry I can’t remember your name, there are just too many things about this place I’m trying to remember!) makes a great bread pudding and crème brûlée so of course that’s what we ordered. The crème brûlée can be made with a regular cream sauce or the whiskey sauce, which is what they recommended. For drinks, we had the oolong tea pot for two and a caramel latte.
We got our crème brûlée and it was perfectly torched to give it just the right amount of burntness on top without being hard! It was also perfectly sweet underneath. The bread pudding was soft and the fruits and other things in it gave little bursts of sweetness along with the boozy sauce. We enjoyed the tea very much as well especially because of the ceramic pot it was in, it was very unique and different from other kinds of tea pots!
Other days I have come, the crème brûlée wasn’t torched enough and was very lightly crisped on top, but it’s okay, we still loved it. Their orange brioche is pretty tasty as well. It’s super soft and has a creamy filling right underneath the orange slice. We also got to try the matcha latte with white chocolate which has to be our favorite drink. The matcha flavor is very authentic alone, but when I wanted a sweetness to it, they have that white chocolate add on option. At the end of our coffee date, we had the pleasure of Sue showing us next door where she makes some of her ceramics! It was definitely something special and I appreciated having the chance to see her workspace!
Another day we came, we got to meet the owners daughter, Sophie, who was just as sweet and informative as her parents. They also have affogatos and we wanted to try something different than the traditional vanilla ice cream, so Sophie recommended the cinnamon ice cream because it compliments the espresso well. We did just that and it was a little too cinnamony for me but other than that, I actually really liked it. It serves well as an affogato and would get it again. I really liked that they put the hot espresso on the side so it doesn’t melt all the ice cream by the time they give it to you.
All in all, warm service, great atmosphere, clear passion for what they do, Saratoga has a special little gem hidden in the back of their downtown.

What’s not to love about a beautiful café that displays breathtaking pottery and engulfs you in its serene ambiance?
A unique, hidden gem in the back of downtown Saratoga, Sue’s Gallery & Café is the most stylish place to be. With a minimalist, clean atmosphere that also feels cozy, the café is extremely well-​designed.
The customer service here is always above and beyond with its friendliness, and there is truly nothing bad that can be stated about this café. There is an outdoor patio in addition to upstairs seating.
I highly recommend checking this café out for quality coffee in an extraordinarily tranquil environment!

Sue’s is in perfect position. It’s about time Saratoga got a local gem besides Blue Rock.
Located at the far back end of downtown Toga, it’s away from the hustle and bustle (which isn’t saying much for DT Toga) on the earlier end of the street. There’s plenty of street parking around Sue’s, or you can park anywhere along Big Basin and walk there within 5 minutes tops.
I believe this place is Korean-​owned. There’s Classical music playing in the ambient atmosphere, and the vibes are lofty, airy, and clean. I loved their cocoa and the amount of detail the baristas put into the design (photos below). There’s an upstairs if you’re not feeling the main floor, or you can sit outside in the small patio if you’re feeling a lack in Vitamin D. There are restrooms, but they need to work on securing some free wifi! Their bus station needs more work, and I suggest heating up the pastries for easier consumption.
In all, Sue’s got a lot going for it from the cute succulents on each table to the artistic and aesthetics like the local art and pottery pieces on the shelves. I’d totally come back to study here or read once they fix their wifi (I couldn’t find a network to connect to when I went on a Sunday morning). Pricing is pretty standard for Saratoga/​LG, about $ 4 for a hot drink and $ 4-​$ 5 for pastries. But you’re coming to Sue’s for their aesthetic and ambiance. I also suggest adding in more tea creations like chai for those of us who don’t drink coffee. But mad props for a great time and stellar service!

I stopped by Sue’s this morning because I was so excited for a new café in downtown Saratoga. The manager/​owner said they are not officially open yet, but expect to be open by next week (~10/​21/​15ish).
They plan to serve espresso drinks, drip coffee (Sightglass), whole leaf tea, and desserts/​pastries. They also sell handmade ceramics and serve all of their drinks in pottery made by the owner, Sue. The café is a little tucked away, on Big Basin Way just past Sent Sovi and the Cinnabar tasting room. They have both indoor and outdoor seating which makes it great for meeting up with friends or studying.
Eager to see what they serve in the future!
