50 Best Coffee Shops in San Francisco

“Great costumer service. 👌“

“A nice space for cultural activities. Ken and Kelly run the place and are super friendly! Watched the Argentina / Netherlands match (2022) with them and a friend, and other people I met in there. Also an art gallery!“

“Bahn mi crunch offers vietnamese sandwichesa, along with many other veitnamese favorites. It's priced pretty well. The lemon grass beef sandwich was amazing and my sons had grilled pork bahn mi. Overall It was waspretty good. Overall great experience. The place is a little small and gets crowded, so you might have to stand up or take it to go, but overall it's a must try.“

“The first time I came here I ordered the special pandan coffee and it was a little watery and I could taste the coffee, and the pandan was overpowering but I tried it again this week and I really enjoyed it. I felt like the coffee was really aromatic and I could taste the pandan as well.
I also love how the staff here are really sweet and accommodating and there is enough space to sit and relax“

“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.“

“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.“

“Exelente Café! te gustan los cafés con aroma y sabor ? tienes que visitar está cafetería 🙏“

“I honestly felt like I was in a hallmark movie with how cute and cozy this coffee shop felt. With a huge selection of sandwiches, wraps, soups, smoothies, lemonades, and even ice cream! It’s really more than a coffee shop at this point. Our cashier was very nice and helpful on recommending us dishes to order. We ordered sandwich and soup combos and were not disappointed. The food was fresh, and the soup tasted like I was visiting my grandma for dinner. Very good portion sizes and our food was served relatively quickly. We were able to work on our laptops here, but be aware that is not allowed on weekends from morning to afternoon. The lemonade was so good and the barista was nice enough to let me try a sample before purchasing. They have tons of pastries on display from bagels to croissants and granola bars. The seating is cozy and they do have outlets available, but be aware seating is a bit limited, especially when it’s busy. Great spot to curl up with a good book, and a hot coffee.“

“Wow! Home is definitely one of my favorite coffee shop! is such a cute, cozy cafe that really almost feels like home...!!!“

“The kind of coffee shop you always hope to find. Having lived in the area for 6 years, this is my go-to spot. It’s where you’ll find locals coming back everyday (for good reason). Family-run. They know the names of most who walk through the door. Beans roasted onsite. It’s everything a great coffee shop should be.“

“We were completely charmed by the quality and thoughtfulness of everything about this place! The brunch-type food is excellent, and the music and decor are individualistic and welcoming (check out the restroom too! Love the generous, relaxing spa vibe and the chandelier!). There’s a bowl of unique, handmade metal-and-glass kaleidoscopes to play with at the big table, and around a corner we got to meet a sweet little 18-year-old resident doggie named Twiggy. (Oh, also, there’s outside parklet seating as well.) Can’t wait to go back!! ❤️❤️❤️“

“Manitas is just around the corner from me. Not usually into Mexican food, but the huevos rancheros was actually really good. Tacos were decent too, and the horchata is sooo refreshing.“

“Come for the handsome barista, stay for the amazing deals on rare vinyl records. Oh, and coffee.“

“Amazing burritos. Bomb.com“

“I’ve loved this place since it first opened and enjoyed spending time here. My only disappointment is the Turkish coffee. It’s very different from traditional Turkish coffee: too strong, served in too large a cup, and flavored with cardamom.“

“I love this coffee shop! The staff are so welcoming, community minded, and great at making delicious drinks. They do great at having vegan food and drink options too. Last school year they donated to support the teachers at our neighborhood public school. It’s a great atmosphere and must stop when you’re on Fillmore😊“

“I love the coffee here, highly recommend!“

“Wow! Home is definitely one of my favorite coffee shop! is such a cute, cozy cafe that really almost feels like home...!!!“

“The burrito was really delicious and packed with fresh, flavorful ingredients. The tortilla was soft and warm, and the filling had a great combination of meat, rice, beans, and toppings. Everything was well-seasoned and cooked perfectly, and the portion was generous and filling. The flavors all came together really well, making every bite satisfying. Overall, it was a great burrito, and I would definitely order it again.“

“I loved the Bolivian single origin. Great notes. Fast and courteous service. Popular. Thank you!“

“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.?“

“We ordered the Lunch Taco Bar for 20 and were so happy with everything. Delivery was on time and very efficient. Did not get name of man/chef that delivered but he was very nice and friendly. The food was DELICIOUS!!! There was something for everyone and all raved about the flavor and freshness!!! Superb!!!“

“My second time coming for the Kaya toast. Their breads are unique and delicious but the Kaya toast is too sweet and salty at the same time. Also if you’re germaphobic the cashier here grabs everything with his hands after handling money. He was pretty rude too.“

“great food and cocktails, bread to die for“

“Hands down the best coffee shop. Just moved here from DC and I’ve been literally twice but Cara (sp?) legit remembered! The coffee is delicious, the magazine corner is an awesome retro touch and the staff is amazing. I don’t even live in the city but this is officially my local spot.“

“The faces they did brighten up my day!“

“This place was so sweet. There's a beautiful mural inside and the chairs are incredibly comfortable.
My server helped me pick a drink because I usually don't do hot drinks, but it was a cold morning. She was so sweet about it and the drink we landed on was delicious (the pistachio lime really is fantastic, you can really appreciate the complexity of the flavor combination when it's served hot.) I didn't try any of their food, but it smelt very good.
The vibes are delightful. They seem very community oriented, and the next trip I make up to San Francisco I will definitely be stopping in again.“

“Very kind staff with quick service. True to their word avocado toast was delicious“

“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.“

“My favorite drink at Abanico is Pinolillo, which is a traditional Nicaraguan drink made from cacao. Delicious and frothy and yummy with Almond milk.“

“Their menu will delight anyone who longs the classic diner fare of the greater NY area. And their service is top notch in efficiency, kindness, and wit.

Always a fantastic chance for me to get a taste of my hometown's flavor.“

“Great coffee and service!“

“The Gelato is authentic and so are the people!“

“This coffee place is from far the BEST in the mission district. I live in the Nob hill and walk all the way to Grand Coffee II for their flat white and for the smiles of the baristas !“

“I love this place! One of my favorite spots in the city to meet up with friends or get some work done. The atmosphere is beautiful…bright, airy, and filled with natural sunlight.
The strawberry matcha is hands down one of the best in the city!!! I also love their Eggs Benedict. The whole place somehow makes me feel like I’ve been transported to Turkey or somewhere in Europe. ☕✨
And the staff are always so incredibly friendly and welcoming. Such a lovely little gem!“

“Best COFFEE and PEOPLE in San Francisco! Everyone has different preferences on coffee, and all around Hedge nails every aspect! Everyone who works there can help you decide how you want it —they are knowledgeable, kind, experienced, and crush it out in the best atmosphere for coffee in San Francisco. What makes it different is they have a passion for the product and experience (it's not just a job)... and that comes through 100%. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!“

“Ariana is absolute perfection! The espresso-grade coffee here is incredible, but honestly, Ariana's warmth and energy are what make this place a must-visit every single time.

My only wish list item for management: Please add breakfast burritos to the menu, and join the movement to stop charging extra for oat milk!“
