Dana Street Roasting Company

Best roasting and best selection of coffee varietals around

Best coffee in the area

Always a pleasure to be here and relax. Thank you. :)

If I am in the area, I have to get their coffee. I have tried the Brasil roast which was great and now trying the House blend. You get a free cup of coffee with a pound of beans purchased.

Good place to get beans and coffee

The lattes were great, enjoyed the flavor and texture of the drink. My partner doesn’t enjoy “burnt” tasting roasts; however she really enjoyed the single shot latte and liked the roast.

I like to support neighborhood coffee shops. This one had a relaxed, collegial and down-to-earth vibe. The pleasant smell of coffee wafted in the air. The baked good pickings looked slim but we were there for an after-lunch espresso/macchiato. With the spring-like weather it was nice to hangout curbside. There were 2 other pairs of friends catching up at the other cafe tables on the sidewalk. We were lucky to try this place out as the operating hours are 8-2pm. (and we sometimes lunch late, phew) The server kindly let me change my order from a cappucino and macchiato and going from a single to double.

Cozy local coffee shop - but more crucially a great coffee roaster and very reasonable prices for whole beans. Coming here is a personal ritual

have never seen this place empty. the most reasonably-priced coffee on Castro St, and the coffee’s awesome!

Good coffee

this is one of the few original coffee houses that existed before the invasion of. McStarbucks.

super causal, great coffee, stuff to eat. I prefer places like this over chain places any time.

This place somehow continues to be a hidden gem, still yet to be discovered by many. I lived in the bay area for 9 years and sadly, only discovered this in the last 3 or so by word of mouth. I'm doing you a favor by doing the same ;) I relocated to the Tahoe area 2 years ago and still make it a point to drop in for a chai or latte or cafe borgia. I even purchase the espresso beans from time to time to make it at home in Tahoe. Chai is authentic, steeped in the usual spices for hours with just a hint of honey. Because of this, it's spice forward and DELICIOUS. Their espresso drinks are phenomenal and I'm picky.

The service isn't super fast and the coffee isn't quite as good as 1oz a couple blocks away but my friends and I much prefer Dana Street for the atmosphere here. There's lots of comfy seating, the owner is typically serving, the baristas are deliciously weird and there's a massive coffee roaster in the corner which makes it feel legit.

Liked the Valencia and borgia coffee. The orange flavor was a bit on the stronger side, it had a kick, but really enjoyable.

They sell freshly roasted bean, works best for home made cappuccino.
