The Creamery: Coffee Shop at Center of Major Tech Deals


Bangalore: With the culture of technology and entrepreneurship going hand-in-hand nowadays, pretty much anybody with a good idea (and a better pitch) can make a deal with a venture capitalist. But most of the cream of Silicon Valley, according to Business Insider, prefers to make their deals at a particular unsuspecting coffee shop called The Creamery.

One thing about this fact though: doesn't seem like the fad of doing tech deals in coffee shops will be going anywhere

The coffee shop is just opposite the Caltrain station, so VCs from San Francisco can get off over here. The train also stops at a couple of tech hot-spots like Palo Alto and Mountain View after this station, and so it’s very convenient.

Probably one of the reasons this place has become so popular is because of the privacy that’s served with the food. VCs especially favor this place because they can have a meeting with a founder for a potential deal and other talented entrepreneurs, and have it in peace. There are even a few tables in the coffee shop that are out of the main way for business meetings. The co-owner, Ivor Bradley, values such meetings, saying “I just want to make their food and bring it to them and leave them in privacy.”

So who would you meet if you went to this coffee-shop?
