Sunnyvale, Located at the Heart of Silicon Valley 

Sunnyvale station empties out onto Murphy Avenue, named after Martin Murphy Jr., who bought much of the land that is now Sunnyvale back in 1844. This packed commercial corridor has plenty to explore for anyone looking for a transit-adjacent adventure.   

The Coffee & More Café has been offering up an alternative to more corporate brews for over a quarter century, while the Bean Scene Café has been doing the same since 2005.  

If you are looking for a place to grab a brew Off the Rails Brewing Company is a welcoming stop for that.  

For those looking for their next bookstore to peruse, Leigh’s Favorite Books & Gifts is a wonderful option with plenty of shelves waiting to be poured over.  

If you’ve been wanting to find an Afghan wine bar, you’re in luck! Moods Wine Bar & Bistro combines international wines with aushak and khorma.

Redwood Square is a lovely green space paired with public art, including a dynamic waterfall art installation and a grove of historic trees, making a great public space for visitors.

Have a sweet tooth? Gelateria Bella Roma offers up an authentic Italian treat transporting you to an Italian evening.  

These of course are just some of the many places that can be discovered in Downtown Sunnyvale.
