This is the original, OG spot that has been brewing the goods for generations and is a destination for anyone who loves coffee and counter-culture.
I enjoy sipping coffee there with my friends and discussing issues of importance to me, the US, and to Italy.

Caffe Trieste is a historic and pleasant café with a distinct identity that resonates with locals. The café offers delicious pastry, including dulce de leche alfajores, coconut cookies, and pastafrola. Good coffee is also available, with many praising the best cappuccino in North Beach. The old-school Italian coffee shop has quick and pleasant service, and no reason to go anywhere else in SFO for espresso. While the cleanliness of the location could be improved, the café's unique energy and nostalgic charm make it a cult spot. The seating area can be a bit tight, but the ambience and decor are 100%, with fascinating black & white photos on the wall. It's legendary and still atmospheric, good for a quick writing session or getting drawn into conversations with the eclectic clientele. Many visitors enjoy the rich history displayed on the walls, and the place remains a popular spot for locals and tourists alike. The baked goods and pastries add to the authentic experience. FYI, it's cash only.
