"PO is pretty consistently good. They have lots of meat on the menu but also vegan and vegetarian options (hey, overnight oats and breakfast/egg croissant). They also provide reusable silverware: while I bring my own, it's nice to have the option. Outdoor vs indoor seating available. Sometimes I wish the staff were a little friendlier, but it works."

"This is my favorite spot for a sandwich and some coffee especially after a morning hike. My go-to recommendation is the Breakfast BLT. The bacon on it is mouthwatering delicious!! I’ve taken multiple friends and family here and they’ve all become fans too. If you’re already exploring Los Gatos, Purple Onion Café is absolutely worth the pit-stop."

"This review is for the downtown Los Gatos Purple Onion Cafe on East Main Street. They have a second location on Winchester Blvd. The Purple Onion. is a popular local hangout for breakfast, lunch or an afternoon snack. The extensive menu features a wide variety of sandwiches, soups, salads and outrageously tempting pastries. On my last lunch visit, I had a classic turkey sandwich with lettuce and tomato on a fresh ciabatta roll. The turkey was good, but unfortunately the kitchen put way too much extra-hot Dijon mustard on the bread. After just one bite (yikes!) I had to scrape off the rest with a knife. The service at this place has been erratic lately. There seems to have been quite a bit of turnover (including the former long-time manager) and the amount of training and supervision the staff now receives is minimal at best. And despite what the owner claims on their website, this place definitely doesn't offer "white tablecloth standard" service. You'll need to bring your patience. Don’t bring cash since they only take credit cards and electronic payment. Also, if you’re with other people, be sure to grab an outside table. The restaurant is extremely loud when it’s busy and it’s almost impossible to hold a conversation. I’ll go back after a morning hike just for coffee, but I’ll go elsewhere in town for lunch. My three star rating is generous."

"A very nice place to meet in Los Gatos. Basic coffee shop food but good service friendly and quick. Excellent for what it is."

"Great place to get lunch or a coffee. They have a wide variety of different food and drink items. Turkey cranberry sandwich was delicious!"
