What customers say?

“ Coffee with nuanced flavors and locally sourced savory goods. Close to a train station on the first floor of an old brick building is The Branch line coffee shop. Wonderful selection of muffins and tasty bagels. Their coffees are exceptional and worth a trip from the Bay area. Don't forget to ask Justin about the secret coffee menu and the black sesame latte. ”

“ I enjoyed the avocado gluten-free toast immensely. So delicious! They had a delightful gluten-free scone as well. It was tasty. Thank you for your impeccable service. Many blessings ”

“ Delicious almost all vegan café (sells honey) located by the railroad in the town center. Seating is outdoors and the food is absolutely delicious. The menu is relatively small, but the items are all delicious – just beware that the prices for the food items are not listed on the menu and they are not cheap. Be sure to ask how much each item costs before ordering if you are price conscious. I would suggest that the café proactively add prices of the menu items on the menu so that consumers can avoid this step. The food is well presented, and all of the ingredients are very carefully considered and sourced. The folks at the café do not rush you out so it’s a wonderful spot for a leisurely meal. The gluten-free avocado toast is absolutely delicious. The gluten-free pastries are available, but please note that they are very sweet. So if you are watching your sugar intake, one pastry split amongst many should be enough or, opt to not get it. The matcha is also very nice – not bitter and nice and smooth. They are also offer a strawberry matcha with housemade strawberry syrup. Definitely worth a stop for a meal and/or beverage if you are in town. ”

“ Best coffee I have had in all of Northern California. Australian coffee snob approved. The avo on toast and daily special focaccias were also the some of the best I have had anywhere in the USA. Staff are super friendly and welcoming. ”

“ What a cool place! We had toast with vegan cream cheese, avocado, and greens and it was absolutely delicious with a beautiful presentation. They had vegan/gf baked goods, vegan cheeses among other little snacks for sale and beautiful local flowers. I would highly recommend hitting up this spot if you are in the area! Yum! ”

“ Such a great spot! The atmosphere is soft and inviting, the owner Kim took our order and gave my husband and I great coffee suggestions. I myself am not a coffee person but the drink he ordered (brown sugar cinnamon latte) was so yummy and well made! I’ll definitely be coming back here for coffee. I also had the avocado toast which was fresh and tasty. Some of the reviews note that it’s a little pricey here, which I won’t argue against, but everything was also homemade and not pulled from a frozen bag or plastic bottle (including all syrups which are made in house), so I don’t mind the price! It kind of sucks because most of the foot traffic goes across the parking lot to Aroma Roasters, but The Branch Line will be where I head from now on for coffee! my only regret was not getting a muffin. ”

“ absolutely beautiful coffee shop, all of the pastries and drinks look like a work of art. you can definitely tell that they care a lot about what they make & put time and care into the quality of food! i got a matcha and the overall quality was amazing and presentation ”
