If you’re spending time in Orinda, California, here are some fun, low-key things to do around town that mix nature, local charm, and a bit of culture. One of the best ways to start is by taking a stroll through Orinda Village, where you’ll find boutique shops, relaxed cafés like Geppetto’s, and spots to grab a bite outdoors.
If you’re into the outdoors, you’ve got amazing hiking right nearby. The Sibley Volcanic Regional Preserve, and the ridgelines along the Oakland Hills offer panoramic views and well-kept trails. For a little more offbeat fun, Orinda is also home to the Maynard Buehler House, a private residence designed by Frank Lloyd Wright that occasionally opens for events. You can also catch a movie at the historic Orinda Theatre.
When it comes to wellness and bodywork, there are quite a few to choose from. Just Say Yes Massage is highly rated for therapeutic work. Devana Thai Massage & Spa specializes in traditional Thai techniques.
If you’re looking to support local small businesses, Orinda has a few gems worth checking out. Bloomin’ Designs is a beautiful flower shop with custom arrangements, while Orinda Books is the kind of indie bookstore where you’ll actually want to hang out. ReCHIC offers curated secondhand fashion and home items.
Now, if you’re a coffee or café person, there are a few places that stand out. Cafe Teatro is great for both coffee and live music events. Geppetto’s Caffe is both a café and a community favorite for breakfast or lunch. The Village Inn Café has a more classic diner vibe, perfect for casual breakfasts or weekend brunch, and a newer spot called Nine Tailed Fox that offers more boutique-style drinks with a creative flair.
So whether you’re into hiking, grabbing coffee, reading a book in a local store, or just exploring what a small but vibrant town has to offer, Orinda has a little something for you—without having to go far from home.
