“Fantastic bookstore, with amazing inventory, staff and cafe. One of my all time favorites.“

“I ordered Spice tuna salad 🥗 so delicious 😋 and very fresh 100% recommended❤️“

“Amazing burritos. Bomb.com“

“Food is well priced and the atmosphere very pleasant.
Staff are very friendly and the shop has a lovely rustic feel.
The location is safe and I did not feel anxious leaving my car with all my belongings on the side street.“

“One65 was an amazing discovery on our trip to San Francisco. Having spent the first half of our life in Montréal, Québec, Canada where it was hard to find a bad restaurant, we were absolutely amazed by this Bistro which looks more like a high end dining experience. The menu online & the photos attracted us to this location but we were amazed by the well timed service, the crisp white tablecloths, the table setting and the pleasant and calm atmosphere. My choices of charcuterie platter was perfectly sized; the chicken & the pork rillettes where a wonderful surprise. My husband had an onion tart with the crust as perfect as they get & which I envied. He loved his halibut, moist and tender and I raved over my grilled half lobster, so tender that I found myself munching on the shell parts as well. My bread pudding was not of overwhelming size & perfectly flavored. Don chose the Affogato (scoop of vanilla gelato « drowned » with a shot of hot espresso). We wanted to go back today but they are closed on Sundays.?“

“A small, family-run spot tucked between Broadway and the Transamerica Pyramid delivers the kind of honest, soul-warming lunch that’s increasingly rare in the city. Run by a lovely older couple who treat every customer like a regular, this no-frills counter serves up comfort food at prices that feel like a time capsule.

Cash/venmo only so you know it's fire“

“If you're looking for an exceptional place to get coffee and a Vietnamese Bahn Mi, you must visit Fresh Brew!

I was greeted promptly and did not have to wait long to order or wait for the food and coffee to be ready. You can tell the owner takes pride in his shop and was happy to have visitors.

The iced coffee was vibrant and perfectly balanced. Not too strong or watered down. It was refreshing drink to have on warm SF afternoon.
Instead of typical pork, I tried the chicken Bahn Mi. The baguette was crunchy on the outside and soft and moist on the inside. It was filled with fresh vegetables and pickled veggies along with the perfect amount of sauce. There was no skimping of chicken, just the right amount to make the sandwich filling.

My only small complaint would be the lack of seating. However, it's a small shop in a dense area of the City so that's to be expected.

Prices are very reasonable for the portions, no silly up charges. I would highly recommend this coffee shop for lunch. Next time I will go earlier and try one of the breakfast offerings.“

“San Francisco’s most hidden gem“

“Nice cafe with a good selection of drinks and food right off the main thoroughfare. Upon walk in you are able to see a menu showcasing all of their drinks and food. They have acai bowls, a huge assortment of pastries, crepes, etc. everything has Brazilian flair which was cool. We ordered acai bowls which are big for their size and jam packed full of fresh fruit. Honestly, one of the best acai bowls I’ve had, presentation wise and taste wise. The coffees were also good, but nothing spectacular. The light pastry we ordered was very good and fluffy. You can see the assortment of pastries as you go through the check out, as it’s a bit like a school lunch line. I highly recommend if you’re looking for a trendy but quiet spot to have a good meal and a cup of coffee.“

“Five bright stars, Lissa darling!“

“اكل حلال اسعار في متناول اليد تعامل قمة في الذوق“

“I love stopping by on my way to work. I’m always there around 8am and the pastries are still warm! It’s a lovely atmosphere, with friendly employees, and delicious pastries and coffee. It’s normally around $12 for a pastry and latte. What more could you want?“

“Highly recommend this cafe for its delicious (and super affordable) bahn mi sandwiches! I got the grilled chicken. The bread was warm and crunchy on the outside and fluffy inside. And the generous portions of chicken and picked veggies filled me up. The staff were super nice as well. Hidden gem!“

“This place was not my favorite place in San Francisco. The breakfast sandwich was OK. I didn’t really care for the taste of the chai latte. The staff was friendly even though they got my order wrong the first time. They made it right with no problem. This is not a place I think I would visit again.“

“High quality matcha and delicious sandwiches!
We came on a trip visiting SF and stopped by for lunch. We got the strawberry cream matcha and the pistachio cream. By far the strongest matcha latte I’ve had but in the best way— you can tell they use high quality matcha.
For sandwiches we got the Tonkatsu with Pineapple and Fish Katsu with Shiso. The sandwiches were hot, flavorful and incredibly filling. We also got the crab and salmon onigiri, and would recommend the crab one.
The atmosphere feels like a cute study spot for students or to catch up with friends. Service was good as well.“

“Great food and service. Great presentation“

“Such a cozy little cafe!
The food was delicious 👌🏻 We ordered the bacon, egg & cheese bagel and the ham & egg croissant, plus two iced blended mochas. Everything was fresh and made to order.

The place is small, which is what makes it feel so cozy and welcoming. The ladies were so kind and friendly, and you can really tell they care about the food they make. Everything tasted fresh and homemade.

Definitely a great little spot for a delicious breakfast and coffee.“

“Exceptionally helpful & friendly staff cooking superb food in a very chill environment. A must visit in the city.“

“Great little find while touring the city! Had to stop by three times in two days. Fantastic sandwich’s and great pastries.“

“A fantastic hidden gem in San Francisco. Excellent food, reasonable prices for the area, and always friendly owners/staff. The cafe can be hard to find off the street, as you either enter through a parking garage entrance or an office building lobby.

It can get tight inside when they’re busy with limited seating and people waiting to order, but they stay busy for a reason. I certainly will keep going back, as Sutter Street Cafe has become my go-to quick breakfast spot in SFO.“

“A very cozy place in the financial district. Even though we went on a weekend, there were still a lot of people working there. Their pour over coffee is reasonably priced and they also provide coffee beans in the shop. I like the paintings they have inside. The coffee also comes with a postcard telling us where the coffee beans come from and the history, which I think is very nice. If you like coffee, I recommend giving this place a try.“

“I’m embarrassed to admit I’ve been here numerous times and it never occurred to me to leave a review. My team and I will visit Angie and her crew whenever we have a break in the morning. I have NOT had a bad experience here… EVER! Always welcomed with a smile. Food is fast, hot and delicious!!
Thank you so much for being in our town !!“

“Highly recommend Best coffee in San Francisco ☕️“

“Enjoyed meeting Ziad, the owner, today!“

“What a great Matcha spot! I really enjoyed the mango matcha and how unique it tasted. The staff was super generous as well as my drink had accidentally spilled outside and they offered to replace it. Thanks to the staff for a nice drink and experience“

“Picked up a too good to go box for lunch and it was great! Walking in I was immediately heartened to see the sweetest man manning the counter offering folks to try things and explaining the food options which all smellt incredible. The other staff who was equally as kind and welcoming grabbed my box. It was packed full of mac and cheese, sausage, beans and some cooked cabbage. All very delicious too! There was a chimmichuri type sauce on the sausage that was INCREDIBLE. I will definitely be back tgtg or not. What a sweet little gem!“

“great value and delicious on- the- go breakfast selections. An independent establishment that enhances the neighborhood.“

“This was my first time visiting Oddcha while heading home from San Francisco, and it definitely caught my attention because of the great reviews.
We ordered the Coconut Bomb and the Thai Twister, and both drinks were excellent. They weren’t overly sweet and had a really refreshing flavor. The boba also tasted fresh, which made the drinks even better.
Ordering was easy using their kiosk system. One thing to note is that parking is located behind the shop. It was a bit confusing at first since the store is on a very busy road, but once you find the back parking area, it’s much more convenient.
Overall, a great stop for refreshing drinks—I’d definitely come back!“

“Such a cute little Cafe with it. Beautiful patio area for outdoor seating! Garden House Cafe run by Jeanette is a little place with menus to span from breakfast till after lunch. Outstanding pricing for San Francisco coffee cafe. Where else in SF can you go can have a double cappuccino for less than $5? Jeanette's other employee that I interacted with for my cappuccino order was great too. Chill place to go an relax with nice music playing on the stereo. Looking forward to a return visit.“

“Lovely people and some bangin’ sandwiches.
On 8/25/2026 i stopped by and got a chicken ceaser wrap, my goodness that was the best salad wrap Ive ever had.
The hot pepper spread they make in house is exquisite and I couldn’t put enough on wrap (it was so good).

Sandwich wise, the Godfather on dutch crunch is great.

Sandwiches are huge (i usually eat one half for lunch and the other for dinner).

Thank y’all so much for cleaning the outdoor tables for me to eat at as well.

Lovely service and also the wrap came out so quick!“

“Perfect unpretentious spot for brunch, lunch, coffee. Super fresh ingredients. Great workspace in historic Presidio buildings.

Updated: love this hidden gem! Note: they stop serving breakfast at 11:00 am sharp, and start lunch service at 11:30 am - so plan accordingly. Cash is preferred. Large portions.“

“Shoutout to Angelina’s Deli Cafe in San Francisco! Stopped by for a bite and everything—from the coffee to the pastries and the sandwiches—was absolutely amazing.
​If you're in the area and looking for a top-tier lunch or morning pick-me-up, this is the spot. Phenomenal food and great quality. We will definitely be back!“

“Great Service! Great for kids!“

“As visitors to the City we had breakfast here yesterday and this morning.Food was delicious and the staff were very welcoming.“

“The best cappuccino in Marin hands down! Been going there for years -- the service has been consistently excellent and the pastries and cakes are quintessential Italian delicacies! Gary and Jeannie Rulli are the dedicated hands-on proprietors -- wonderful people and a blessing to our Larkspur community🥰!“

“The happy donut has been a staple of our tip in San Francisco. The restaurant is family run and has the most delicious menu. From the food to the drinks to the donuts, every single thing that we ordered was phenomenal. I would highly recommend stopping in to support this business!“

“Love this place. It’s always good and fresh. The Nutella/ strawberry 🥐 croissant is yummm, a must have.“

“I I have been going to the Buena Vista Café in San Francisco since 1965. It is still the same wonderful place for the people from all over the world and the best Irish coffee you could ever want and a view of the bay. I love that place and all the people that work there and the food is good also“

“Great location for a fresh breakfast/brunch in the Bay Area. Got a plate of fries, while my friends got toast. The juice was great and the service was excellent. Would dine here again when in town. The sidewalk dining area worked great for some fresh area while having breakfast/brunch. Paid parking garage available nearby.“

“Great coffee and service!“

“Hidden Gem by Kaiser and MtZion Medical Center...fresh and yummy and a variety. Half chicken w saffron rice m Salad($10.99), Wild Salmon($12.99)...can’t wait to check out the burger ($6.99). Clean, friendly staff... Why didn’t I ever get here sooner“

“We were looking for a place for a quick breakfast and, based on reviews, stopped in here. The portions are generous and all the dishes are very fresh. What really makes this a stand out spot is the hospitality. The owners/staff are beyond friendly and welcoming.“

“Fantastic Coffee, Great Food, and Excellent Service!

Ashley’s Café in the Inner Richmond is a true gem! The food is fresh and delicious, with a great selection of breakfast and lunch options. Their coffee is absolutely fantastic—smooth, rich, and expertly made. Whether you’re grabbing a quick cup or sitting down for a meal, the quality is always top-notch.

What really sets Ashley’s Café apart is the excellent customer service. The staff is friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming, making every visit a pleasant experience. It’s the kind of place that makes you want to come back again and again.

Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area!“

“Fantastic concept, fantastic cocktails“

“Sanaa Cafe offers an excellent selection of coffee, desserts, and delicious Fatayer. The atmosphere is truly unique, featuring authentic Yemeni architecture and Coffee. It is a perfect environment for productivity; it’s inviting, bring your laptop and work while enjoying a Sanaa Adani Chai or a Pistachio Mocha. I also highly recommend trying our delicious pistachio cheesecake.“

“Amazing place for breakfast and coffee! I highly recommend it.“

“Cutest bahn mi store in the city. I got chicken meatball bahn mi it really hit the spot. Bread was crunchy and soft on the inside. Really top notch bahn mi hidden behind an unassuming store front. Truly a hidden gem!

Note: why is the lowest review complaining they aren’t open on the weekends, how about you learn to read store times before leaving a low review…“

“My go-to when I'm in town! Fantastic food and service. Highly recommend!“

“I was gifted a box of chocolate’s as a thank you that was shipped to Ohio in June. They arrived perfectly. And OMG they were delicious! I savored those chocolates and smiled each time I indulged in one. Definitely recommend!“

“We came here twice during our SF trip mainly because it was right by our hotel and actually open at 6 AM (an absolute lifesaver when you're dealing with crazy jet lag).
They have a huge menu with tons of sweet and savory options, and you can customize your sandwiches and bagels a million different ways. We tried to keep it (relatively) healthy and skipped the heavier, greasier stuff, but honestly everything on the counter looked amazing. The pastrami and turkey sandwiches were great, and the breakfast bagels (we did one day with bacon, one day without) really hit the spot. Good coffee too ❤️
Prices are pretty standard for the US right now.
Service depends on the day. The guy working our first morning was a bit grumpy (but hey it was 6 AM, so I get it lol). The guy on our second visit was more friendly. Loved that they spoke Spanish and had some Spanish music playing in the background (gave it a fun vibe without losing that classic American deli feel). Solid breakfast spot.“
