Love the atmosphere, but not a good place to work on weekends, you are not allowed to use your laptop on weekends between 7 AM and 2 PM. Broad food menu with simple cafe fare

I've been going here for 9 years - the staff know me by name. Recently, the owner has added a new rule where no laptops are allowed on the weekends. I came in at 11am on a Saturday to do some work on my laptop. I bought a snack & a drink, and I was literally the only one in the back room. Yet, the staff came to kick me out. It's not their fault, but this is just senseless. I ended up going to Martha's instead.

Went here today and I must say... This place is great. The staff is super friendly and the place has a real chill vibe to it. I loved it.

The freaking best. One of my favorite spots in Bernal hands down, especially for breakfast. Great to work at, great to bring friends, to sit alone and read, whatever. Any time. The staff are amazing, the ingredients fresh and real, and fairly varied. Their chai is also especially great. I wish it was dog friendly but even without it's a favorite. I wish I lived just a little closer!

Great coffee shop with sandwiches, wraps, soup and more. Smoothies delicious and they have Mitchell's ice cream. Comfy seating in back room and nice patio. A regular place for us.

The food is delicious and so is the coffee. We met a few friends. Some of the food is Moroccan inspired but the meat is not halal. There are plenty of vegetarian and fish options though. Great!!

This place is represented by a prejudice owner and her staff. If your a conservative they will refuse you service.
They are more about there woke leftist politics, rather than good service for all their community. They try to represent cutting edge all are welcome however if they will judge you and if they don’t like your appearance they will refuse your service and do not represent what they believe in, have totally missed the mark.
I will not spend another dime in this place as I do not support their prejudices and their division of the community.

Great study spot! Plenty of accessible outlets, comfortable seating, and good lighting. Free wifi! And the food & drink options are also great. I had the grilled salmon lavash wrap and a chunk of cinnamon crumble cake- delicious! It was hard to choose among all the options so I will definitely be coming back to try others. Also generally good vibes and friendly staff :)

Warning that if you come with a dog because you saw the photos of the patio, don’t! They don’t allow pets. You can sit out front on their benches tho

Nice place to work with indoor and outdoor seating areas, and some outlet strips. But the employees were surprisingly rude, and my drink was surprisingly expensive.

Vegetarian options: I had a fabulous bagel with pesto, glazed onions, fresh tomatoes, crunchy cucumber and avocados. Nice place, friendly crew and delicious and fresh food options.

Great vibe, great food! Highly recommend.

Despite having a beautiful back patio, offering dog biscuits and having dog water bowls, this place is NOT dog friendly. This is a fact that the manager conveniently shared after I’ve already ordered and tipped, and after I’ve spent 5-10 minutes in line with my very visible dog. Very much a bait and switch. I specifically went to this place because of the back patio. If you have a dog, save your money and walk 1 more block to Moonlight Cafe, which at least has patio seating out front and has food that is just as delicious (and the staff are very friendly!)

We went there a few times last october during our stay in SF and it has been a staple during our trip for breakfasts and afternoon coffees (the bagels are amazing)! We met the owner, an incredibly nice person. I have very fond memories of this amazing place
