Dana Street Roasting Company

An amazing little cafe. A great variety of beans to come from! Customer service was fantastic and really knowledgeable. I will be returning!

I love this place. But I'm biased because I grew up in Mountain View and now that I don't live in MV anymore I have to come back back for a visit when I'm in town. It feeds my soul and reminds me of old school Mountain View in the. I love that it has not changed.

Been going to Dana Street Roasting for longer than I care to remember.
The coffee here is far superior to other coffee shops almost anywhere.
These guys have control over the freshness of the beans since they roast it here them themselves. (The most common issue with coffee roasting in My opinion is not knowing when to stop the roasting process and ending in an over-roasted bean. This makes the coffee acidic and burned flavored.) (Think Starbucks and Pete's although they have been getting better) Here the beans are roasted to perfection resulting in a great cup of Coffee / Espresso.
Also this is not some corporate store. It is locally owned and managed by the owner. That by far is much better than any of the commercial coffee's available.
Love the sign; "Friends don't let friends go to Starbucks" :)

A fairly good local coffee shop. Good coffee and pastries, and the beans they roast are second to none. Prices are about average for the area and they have a very laid back vibe.
Been going here off and on for almost 20 years, and they have unfortunately been slowly going down hill. Used to have live music, the uke jam once a month, and extended hours so I can only give them 3 stars. Hopefully this will change, as it was once easily the best coffee shop in the area.

I think Dana Street roasting company is my favorite coffee shop in all of Mountain View. Sure, I've had better coffee out of town, but when I'm not traveling, this is where I go for my caffeine addiction. Coffee here is tasty and reasonably priced. I would argue that the place has great ambience. It feels local, no frills, and down to earth, unlike those fancy, carefully decorated but overpriced cafes in the bay area.
