About this Blue Bottle cafe
Blue Bottle Coffee lists this cafe as its Stanford cafe, at 660 Stanford Shopping Center, Suite 650B. The center suggests its El Camino Real entrance by Blue Bottle Coffee and Dumpling Time as the easiest way in, so the cafe sits close to one of the main driving approaches. That makes it practical for a quick coffee without a long walk across the center. It also works as a meeting point, since the center has several entrances and large lots.
The cafe opens at 6 a.m., well before the stores around it, which suits an early coffee before a visit to the Stanford campus or Stanford Hospital. Our visiting Stanford guide covers the campus.
