They make really good burgers here. I usually get the mushroom Swiss and it's great! Good fries. Salads are really good too. Love their orange dressing.

10 outta 10 recommend Bistro Espresso in Arnold. Thank you Larry. Food was great & service was extremely friendly. Had the baby beet salad with grilled chicken and the fried zucchini.

Friendly little cafe in Arnold with tasty, giant breakfast burritos. We ordered the veggie and bacon burritos and were both too stuffed to finish them in their entirety. The leftovers were still delicious later in the day after skiing. Bonus they have yummy muffins and cinnamon rolls!

So far everything I have ordered on the menu has been awesome. Even their breakfast burritos are soo good you want to eat yourself into a food coma. Their coffee is great. I always order their Salted Caramel coffee

I was so pleasantly surprised to find such a wonderful coffee /breakfast place in the small town of Arnold, Ca. Delicious, robust coffee, excellent French toast and eggs. Friendly service. Thursday, Friday, Saturday nights they serve bistro dinners. Outside seating is available.

BEST Breakfast Burritos! We got it with bacon (extra crispy) and enjoyed it so much that we came back the next 4 days for more. We also liked the breakfast sandwich and chicken fried steak. Emily made the most delicious Snickers espresso drink (half sweet), it was perfect! She had great customer service and we enjoyed getting to know her over the span of a couple days. Sabrina was also great. These people hustle and do it with composure and a smile on their faces! For lunch, the burgers are delicious. We tried the bacon BBQ burger and mushroom Swiss. Parmesan garlic fries were a hit! Will definitely return when in Arnold again

Great atmosphere, coffee and food. Options for indoor and outdoor seating are available so if you want to bring a pet plenty of covered outdoor seating. My first time being an Arnold and my first time visiting Bistro Espresso. I'm excited to make this our regular stop on our way back home after visiting.
