Came for the coffee, stayed for the wine! Eataly Silicon Valley is finally open.
It feels like it’s been forever since they initially announced we were getting an Eataly in Northern California, I’m glad it’s finally here!
Eataly is located within at Valley Fair shopping center in San Jose. It can be accessed both inside the mall and from the new outdoor space on the Santa Row side.
Eataly consists of three floors, the bottom floor has a bakery, gelateria and a casual eatery, the second floor is a wine shop and the third floor is a gourmet market, a second wine shop and houses two restaurants.
First stop for me was the coffee bar and bakery on the first floor. Eataly has so many delicious looking Italian pastries. I really wanted one of everything!
Instead, I opted not to get a pastry and instead treat myself to the largest size of Lavazza Nitro Cold Brew. It was very strong!
I then took the escalator up to the wine shop and browsed. I love Italian wine and am so thankful I took an Italian Wine course last year. I really learned so much!
On the third floor is the gourmet market and deli, filled with Italian delicacies. This is what dreams are made of! They have so much delicious food including fresh pasta, pizza, meat and an entire wall of cheese.
So far I’ve been to the Eataly in Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Tokyo Station and Harajuku. While the Eataly in Las Vegas was the largest one I’ve been too overall, but I think this one has the biggest deli and market section.
Espresso and Strawberry Maritozzi at the Eataly in Tokyo Station. Maritozzi is a sweet bun filled with cream. This one also included strawberries.
Breakfast to go back at Eataly Las Vegas. We stayed at the MGM Park hotel and it was wonderful to wake up every morning and just go to the first floor of the hotel and get breakfast at Eataly. Honestly we ate most of our meals at Eataly during that trip.
