Dan Pitt’s Opinionated Compendium of Downtown Palo Alto Restaurants
After a year of delays, mainly permit-related, Caffè del Doge Venezia finally opened inside the downtown Palo Alto Caltrain station building on Friday, as previously announced. The menu is the same as the University Avenue location except that some of the coffee drinks come in only one size, not two. Part of the lobby keeps its long rows of wooden benches while the part near the serving area has some small tables. It’s always been a very pretty building inside and remains so with the addition of the food and drink service. You will find ready-made sandwiches and desserts as well as a plenitude of beverages.
Hours are 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Monday through Saturday, at least for now.
