Brickyard Coffee & Tea The Marina District’s Neighborhood Coffee Shop
In a world of fast food restaurants, trendy, expensive dining experiences and everything in between, wouldn’t it be nice to find a small, unpretentious, friendly place to have breakfast and lunch seven days a week? Welcome to The Brickyard! This little gem in the Marina District has a charm and warmth that keeps locals coming back over and over.

Maybe it’s the large outdoor patio frequented by locals and tourists, many with their dogs and babies in strollers and the trolley and trains passing by giving it an urban feel. It could be the great breakfast foods including a vegetarian or cheese and bacon breakfast burrito, bagels, eggs, oatmeal with fruit, fresh baked muffins, fruit cups and delicious coffee and specialty coffee drinks. Lunch is also simple, but offers delicious sandwiches, quiches, soups, chili and daily specials.
