Discover specialty coffee in different parts of San Jose
San Jose gets written off as the city you fly into for meetings, and that is exactly why its coffee is worth knowing. Silicon Valley's biggest city has quietly built a roasting culture of its own, shaped as much by Vietnamese, Filipino, and Indonesian coffee traditions as by the Bay Area third wave, and most of it sits a short drive from the hotels along the 101 and 280.
