I went there with my family. My family is pure vegetarian. The staff gave me pieces of chicken mixed in the chilli cheese fries which is a cheat. I request the cafe owner that you should take action a little request for public please If someone goes to eat something there then think carefully before going, the quality of the food is also rubbish

Place looks nice but 7 dollars for a soft drink is insane. Didn’t know I was at the damn airport.

The tables are kept clean and the trash cans are regularly emptied. Got the burger and fries. The fries were.pretty good, but the burger was very under-seasoned and soggy.

It's very dirty. The tables are very sticky. The floor is dirty. I wish the food was better. Soup was ordered. San Francisco Cioppino $20.99
Clams, shrimp, mussels, salmon, tomato saffron broth- it's not delicious tomato soup. Buffalo Chicken Flatbread $16.99 -A small tortilla. Only the dough tastes good. The filling was all removed. The meat is strange and spicy. French Fries $6.49- The only thing that turned out to be less delicious.
It's a new experience for us. Unfortunately, we won't come back here again. Thank you.
Soda smells like chlorine...

Cheeseburger was the most tasteless Cheeseburger I've ever eaten. It tasted literally like nothing. Also way too greasy and too expensive.

If you're visiting the San Francisco zoo and planning to have something to eat: either dine in or takeaway, I suppose you wouldn't have much of a choice in terms of eateries. This cafe is pretty much it and you'll have to make do with whatever is available here.
I visited on a Wednesday afternoon and it was almost empty although as time progressed, I saw more customers. There is plenty of seating available: both inside as well as outside. You can order via the self-service touchscreen. My order of hot dog and fries was ready in literally 2 minutes. I understand why: they just put the hotdog in the bun and give it to you. The sauces (barbeque sauce, tomato ketchup), mayo, yellow mustard etc are kept separately in big plastic dispensers and you're free to add whatever you want as many times as you may require.
The cost could be slightly less: I paid around $17 for the 2 items and felt it was more than what I would pay at a standalone cafe. I suppose they charge a small premium as they're based within the zoo premises. Maybe that is standard practice.
There are refrigerators stocked with cold fizzy drinks and there is also a separate area vending hot drinks like coffee which I did not try. They also serve the Bay Area specialities like Clam Chowder.
Overall, an average experience: nothing extraordinary or specifically worth highlighting. The hot dog and fries were good.
Vegetarian options: Very few vegetarian options such as 4-cheese flatbread. I didn't see any others.
Dietary restrictions: I didn't see any options for people who have certain dietary requirements such as vegan, kosher, halal etc.
Parking: Parking is on the main ground near the zoo entrance gate. Payment has to be made when you buy the tickets for entry.
Food quality was really good for a zoo. Expensive, but also expected. Only downside was being notified of our order being ready through SMS (which we didn't have access to since we're not from the states). Otherwise, way better than we thought for a tourist attraction. Clean and friendly staff.

It’s your average zoo cafeteria. The food was decent. It was hit or miss. My meatballs and bread were salty. Hubby’s cheeseburger was okay, the side french fried was good.They had a lot of selections based on American cuisine. Their indoor interior was huge and spacious, but it was self-served.
I have not been to the zoo in years, but to my surprise, the leaping lemur Cafe at the San Francisco Zoo is amazing. It's not too high priced. Nice selection of food, and let me tell you, my whole family enjoyed the foodI had the Korean fried chicken sandwich. It was delicious, and it came with french fries. When you order just a side of fries, they fill the whole box they are also fantastic. Next time you go to the zoo, plan to eat at the Leaping Lemur Cafe. You will not be disappointed.

if i could give it zero stars i would. i was excited because i love lemurs but anyways i got a burger and the BOTTOM bun (so check yours) had black mold spots. they tried saying it was flour…meanwhile NO other burgers i saw in my immediate area has that. the line cooks were annoyed i returned it and asked the manager if i should be charged to change my food out to tenders, when i should have gotten a free refund for MOLDLY BREAD. i didn’t get a chance to take a photo but i wish i did.

Quality food, very expensive! Soft drinks are $7 for a cup! Service is poor, staff are rude.
