The coffee here is very good. My favorite roast is French. The employees are kind. It is also a nice spot for doing homework.
My family and I Have been enjoying Great Bear Coffee for over 20 Years now. It's such an asset to our community. The coffee is superb/sweets are yum but the staff really enjoyable to talk to. Thank you GB! We love having your coon our morning walks
Very busy inside and out, yet super friendly and caring baristas (: Great coffee and a lovely variety of treats/food. Will be coming back very soon!
Great Bear Coffee is AMAZING! They provided coffee for a morning event I hosted at work for 100 people, and it was a huge hit. The coffee was absolutely delicious, rich, flavorful, and perfectly brewed. You could tell they care about quality. If you're looking for great coffee and even better service, I can't recommend Great Bear Coffee enough.
Great energy, reminds me of an old mom and pop while in the wall coffee shop! Definitely coming back! :)
Super cute & cozy coffee shop in Downtown Los Gatos. Great service, amazing menu (I got the non caffeinated rose & saffron tea), and great seating. Also, their hours are fantastic - always a plus when a coffee shop stays open in the evenings! Street parking may be difficult but you can park at near by lots scattered across Downtown Los Gatos & walk over.
I always try to order off of the seasonal/special menu for something unique that's not usually in other cafes and my boyfriend tries to find the best iced cold brew with no sweetener. Thanks to Angie's recommendation, I ordered the Persian Rose Latte with oatmilk. Sadly the only thing I remembered that's in this drink is cardamom so if you like cardamom and like your coffee less sweet, this is the drink for you! My boyfriend also enjoyed his cold brew. This place is also dog friendly which is always a plus in my book!
The rumors are true, the CCC is everything and more! Service was quick on a fairly busy Sunday morning. The CCC is so darn good- like a chocolate milkshake but somehow light and not too sweet or heavy. I split it with my sister and it was the perfect little treat while browsing downtown and the farmers market. It rings up just shy of $8, so a bit pricey but I'd definitely get it again when in the area and want to treat myself.
Great Bear Coffee has always reminded me of a coffee shop out of a Hallmark movie because of its cozy ambiance. This time, I visited on a Friday (late) morning and found them pretty busy. Luckily, I barely had to wait to order. They had a bunch of seasonal flavors, so I asked the friendly girl at the counter for her favorites. I chose the Maple Spice Cold Brew she had recommend, with Polar Bear Foam. I also ordered the Greek Artichoke Quiche, and ask for it warmed up. Service was pretty quick, and my coffee and food came out at the same time. I managed to snag one of the few available indoor tables. The Maple Spice Cold Brew wasn't bad, but it sadly wasn't very flavorful. I would probably get a different drink next time. The quiche was tasty though, and very filling. Overall, my favorite aspect of this coffee shop was definitely the warm, comfortable ambiance. Would return to try other items though!
This is a lovely coffee shop with an inviting atmosphere. The interior showcases the work of local artists on the walls, which rotates regularly, presenting something new to brighten up the place each month. Service was great, and there was hardly a wait to order on a Monday afternoon during a holiday weekend. Pastries and cookies can be picked up from the display case, and hot food along with drinks took 5-10 minutes after we ordered. The iced mocha and cardamom rose iced green tea were refreshing, with great flavor. The oatmeal chocolate cookie and banana chocolate chip loaf tasted homemade, with lots of chocolatey goodness mixed in to satisfy my sweet tooth. The potato, egg, green chile, and cheese burrito was a bit on the small side, but stuffed with tasty ingredients and quite filling. We enjoyed our treats in the outdoor patio, and parking was free and easy a block away, near the Los Gatos Town Plaza Park.
