Very small indoor area but it is adjacent to a park and there were plenty of outdoor seating. Service was quick and efficient and the coffee was delicious.

A gem of a coffee spot, small in size but big on flavour. I absolutely adored their 'Day Off in Kyoto' - a sublime Hojicha and vanilla bean latte that's an absolute must-try!

One of the best tasting coffees I’ve had in the US of A. The award season roast was sublime, and the ‘Day off in Kyoto’ was amazing. Thank you.Props to Adam savages as his YouTube channel made me stop by.

This place is always rocking on the weekends. I only get tea here so I can’t comment on the coffee, but the teas are exotic and done right . Thank you team!Kid-friendliness: Kid aren’t usually here, but I’m sure they are welcome

Strictly a to go spot; service can be extremely slow if they’re even remotely busy. Coffee is good, they have non dairy options too. They seriously make the best hot chocolate I've tasted in recent memory; using Dandelion cocoa nibs & diluting them from scratch. Be sure to grab a Dandelion Chocolate bar on your way out; A+++Parking: you can forget about parking here- best to take a cab or rideshare.

Had the best service here, Emily and Justin were the most perfect baristas, the music was so good, and the drinks were delicious :)

Ordered mocha. Asked for oat milk. They kept real milk and I've been farting all night. Was it because I didn't tip for an $8 mocha ??

Ritual is on my weekend coffee rotation because it really never fails. I love this location in Hayes Valley. I enjoy the takeout only concept. It's an easy in and out and Patricia's Green is the perfect spot to people watch. The line can easily be out the shipping container but Sunday mornings are pretty quiet. The place is always clean and the staff is solid. From black iced coffee to their seasonal offerings, they hit the mark every time. The seasonal offerings tend to be on the sweeter side but not bad like dutch bro's vibes, if that makes sense. Their foggy latte is my seasonal favorite. The perfect play on a london fog. The hint of orange really elevates this special drank. Drinks range from $4 - $7ish. Average in the bay forsure, maybe even on the less expensive side.

$28-$34 for 12 ounce bag of beans.. I just can’t do it. Go to Boulangerie across the street and get 12 ounce organic fair trade Equator beans for $14-$15. The price spread on this corner for the same organic fair trade product is insane.

Outdoor seating available only (sadly).Fall signature drinks are here and I love Ritual’s signature Foggy latte.Since I love Earl Grey tea, this latte is a special treat with Earl Gray tea, orange blossom water and espresso.

Grabbed a cold brew from Ritual Coffee at around 2 pm. Service was great and the cold brew was excellent bold and smooth house blend. You cannot beat this location at Hayes and Octavia, which is next to excellent food and retail shops.

This particular Ritual location is a small lil shipping container next to Patricia's Green in Hayes Valley. Do NOT be surprised if there's a line literally out the door, but also do NOT worry--the line moves quickly.Barista/os are some degree of vvvv nonchalant chill to friendly; I find I get the most smiles and conversation when I bring my cat with me (:I love to try their seasonal drinks (horchata latte, tamarind cold brew, foggy latte), but most tend to be too sweet for my liking -- I'm sure I could ask them to go easy on the sweet part, but I'm pretty sure the main flavoring is just sweet on its own. Oh well, a small cappuccino always hits the spot for me, and while it's def an American capp (would prefer even less milk, but not quite as small as a cortado), it's still tasty.Pastry case is always full, though I've never indulged, friends have & are always pleased.Pro tip: wait outside the shipping container for your name to be called, grab your drink, and enjoy it while watching the doggos play in the far/south end strip of Patricia's Green.

I'm a usual at this coffee shop. This morning, a woman walked in front me, bypassing an entire line of people. I said we were waiting in line, the barista looked at me in the eye and proceeded to take that woman's order anyway. Also, sometimes they chat with the customers for a long time. Once, I had to leave the line because the barista chatted with one customer for about 5 minutes. Their coffee is generally good, but sometimes poor. I'm not going back there again.
