Chef Nicolas Castillo
Built From the Kitchen Up
Chef Nicolas Castillo Correa began cooking in Colombia at just 13 years old. From food trailers and restaurant kitchens to becoming a head chef, he built his career one experience at a time.
Today, he leads the kitchen at Foreigner Café with the same passion, humility, and desire to keep learning—creating food with care and always looking toward what’s next.
Our Creations!
I went to this place with my friend for brunch and had a great experience. They had a large selection of sandwiches, wraps, salads, crepes and multiple vegan options. My friend had the all day breakfast tray (loved it) I had the quinoa, oat and fruit bowl. Everything was tasty and fresh. Good coffee and tea. They have free pup cups and they are dog friendly - outdoor seating available.
Very yummy breakfast/brunch place. They have pretty good coffee too. We order the Cortada and the red velvet latte. Both were great. Their food also tasted great. The eggs Benedict were especially yummy. We like that they have real food display for ordering but dislike that there’s no price on the food until they ring it up.
Amazing breakfast spot with unique offerings. We had a French Omelet and a Berry Croffle (croissant waffle). The inlet was cooked perfectly and the Croffle was excellent, sweet but not too sweet. The house drip coffee was excellent as well. Great place to go!
Coffee Worth Coming Back For
We pour Barako from the Philippines, Peerless Coffee from Oakland, and single-origin pour-overs from Red Bay — all ground in-house.
