Born of Venetian tradition, sustained daily by our discerning baristas and customers

Picture
Café Venetia is deeply rooted in the culture of Venice, Italy, where caffè-bars have served as social and intellectual gathering spots for over three centuries. We continue this tradition from bean to cup by sourcing our coffee directly from a Northern Italian roaster, and transforming it into high quality espresso drinks to enjoy in a refined setting. 

​
Our community of customers visit us as much for our food and drink offerings as for the culture of the cafés. A morning cappuccino taken standing at the bar in classic Italian style, or a glass of prosecco in the evening at one of our outdoor tables — you’ll find an authentic European cafe experience here in the heart of Silicon Valley. 

     
                              
We draw inspiration from (and are members of) the Slow Food movement, an organization founded in Italy that celebrates sustainably-produced quality food. This philosophy is evident in our sourcing of specialty Italian food — from Puglian olive oil to Tuscan biscotti — and local, organic dairy products. We also abide by European Specialty Coffee Association guidelines, which ensures consistent high standards for each drink our baristas prepare.

Our next chapter will be a natural extension of our passion for Italian wine and the tradition of the Italian aperitivo: we will be opening an enoteca (wine bar) later in 2022. The new space will feature a wine tasting room and will serve a more extensive selection of Italian wine with classic food pairings. Stay in touch for updates!
