Whether you're craving the ubiquitous pumpkin spice latte or a hot apple cider, here are the top spots with just the right fall beverage to keep you warm.

It'll be hard to leave La Promenade once you walk in. Its charming Paris-esque interior, creative latte flavors, freshly-toasted sandwiches, French music in the background... A dream.

East Bay

Via Modern Coffee

Modern Coffee

(411 13th St // Oakland)

Known for choosing the best beans from a variety of roasters, Modern Coffee has the best of the best you won't forget. They're back in action this season with house favorites like the Blackstrap Latte, Lavender Mocha, and the famed Burnt Cinnamon Latte.

Fall Drink: Burnt Cinnamon Latte

MY Coffee Roastery

(2080 Martin Luther King Jr. Way // Berkeley)

Serving up drinks made from hand-picked coffee beans, you can't go wrong with the year-round menu at this relatively new Berkeley destination — the orange blossom latte is a must — but the seasonal offerings are just the right thing to add some spice to your fall beverage.

Fall Drink: Pumpkin Latte

Bonus Treat: Apple Turnover

Via Artis

Artís

(1717 Fourth St B // Berkeley)

Now if you're the black drip coffee type, you'll love this spot (top-notch joe). And if you're the PSL with some whip and cinnamon on top, you'll also love this spot.

Equator Coffees

(175 Bay Pl // Oakland)

South Bay

Via Sue's Gallery Cafe

Sue's Gallery Cafe

(14665 Big Basin Way // Saratoga)

Fall Drinks: Pumpkin Spice Latte, Aztec Mocha

Bobabia

(271 Baldwin Ave // San Mateo)

Lounge feels meet club vibes at this popular bubble tea spot. We dearly miss their live DJ nights, but best believe the boba is still going strong! The main reason to go, though, is their butter beer. You'll thank us later.

Fall Drink: Butter Beer

Via Nirvana Soul

Nirvana Soul

(315 S 1st St // San Jose)

When Nirvana Soul says they’re serving up #selfcareinacup, they mean it. You can grab a cup to-go if you’d like, but we’d recommend hanging out for a while and taking in the top-notch decor and vibes of the downtown San Jose location.

Fall Drinks: Sweet Potato Pie Latte, Caramel Apple Latte

Bonus Treat: Pumpkin Cheesecake

Voyager Craft Coffee

(San Jose // Santa Clara)

Now this is the spot for the ultimate fall drinks. We love their year-round "destination" drinks (especially the fall-esque Santiago with cocoa, cinnamon, and cayenne), but the fall menu is unreal.

Fall Drinks: Halloween Town (vanilla pumpkin), La Umamacita (dulce de leche miso), The Six (vanilla pecan maple)

North Bay

Taylor Lane

Trip out on what Dr. Insomniac has to offer in the form of high-quality coffee beans, a variety of scuffins (scone + muffin), and a list of signature lattes + blended drinks to keep anyone up all night.

Fall Drink: Cinnamon Devine Latte

Bonus Treat: Pumpkin & Cream Cheese Scuffin

Via Fox & Kit

Fox & Kit

(1031 C St // San Rafael)

Coffee shop-slash-indoor playground? Yeah, we’re interested. This bright, cozy cafe is the perfect place to hang while the kids (or the adults – we won’t tell) goof around at the playground.

Fall Drink: Pumpkin Spice Latte

Napa Valley Coffee

(St Helena // Napa)

In need of a caffeine kick after a day of wine tasting? Opt for a cup of joe at one of Napa's most popular coffeehouses. Plus, the pumpkin spice goes perfectly with the fall colors out in the country.
