Our Menus

Our History

We've been around a while

St. Michael's Alley was founded in 1959 by Vernon Gates. It was the first coffee house on the peninsula and was named for the the alley in London which is home to its first coffeehouse, founded in 1652. St. Mike's bohemian atmosphere attracted many from the beatnick era and helped launch the careers of famous musicians and writers including the Grateful Dead, Joan Baez, Grayce Slick, Ken Kesey, Robert Hunter, and Jefferson Airplane. Vernon retired in 1993 and sold the restaurant to the current owners, Jenny Youll and Mike Sabina.

A new location, one block away, was opened in March 2009 at 140 Homer Ave. This larger space has a separate full bar, outdoor seating, and an intimate dining room. Jenny and Mike spent 3 years designing and building the new St. Mike's, with Mike acting as draftsman, architect, engineer, general contractor and carpenter.

LARGE RESERVATIONS

(10-16 GUESTS)

We do our best to accommadate reservations of all sizes, however given the intimate size of our dining room, it is sometimes difficult to accommodate larger parties. One options is to reserve a table in the front room/bar area where we are able to put several tables together. Large groups are subject to a per person minimum.
