I work often around the corner at Moscone Center. Finally got a chance to give thos new spot a try. The young lady behind the counter was pleasant, prompt and made me an incredibly delicious Caffè Latte. Price is average for the area and the place is clean and well appointed. I definitely recommend it. If I were the owner, I might try staying open a bit later just to see how it goes. People like having a place to go to work, read, write, socialize and people watch. Bring back SF café culture. That said, I'm glad it's there.

$5.15 for a shot of mediocre espresso.

I stopped by this coffee shop and really enjoyed it. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, perfect for relaxing or getting some work done. The staff was friendly and helpful, and my drink came out quickly. I ordered a latte, and it was smooth, rich, and not too sweet—just the way I like it. They also had a nice selection of pastries that looked fresh. Overall, it’s a great spot to grab a coffee and unwind.

I recently visited Sextant Coffee, and it instantly became one of my favorite spots in town. The moment you walk in, you’re greeted with the comforting aroma of freshly brewed coffee and a warm, welcoming vibe. The décor is modern but cozy — soft lighting, lots of plants, and plenty of comfortable seating that makes it easy to relax or study for a while.

Amazing coffee! I loved the vibe especially during mid terms I was able to crush it out. I totally recommend the wired ghandi.

I visited Sextant on a last minute trip. I was in the area and needed some caffeine. I made a google search and landed there after visiting their two other locations previously, only to be extremely satisfied with the service I received. The overall layout of the coffee shop was really nice, as well as their cappuccino! I would really recommend visiting.

Coffee menu doesn’t have prices. The reason becomes clear after you order. This is a business trip coffee trap coffee shop. Unfortunate because the coffee is good

5 stars for the thing I came for, a proper latté.

If you’re an espresso purist you need to give it a shot. Barista used distribution tool, scale and even heated the mug before pouring latte art. This guy in particular knew how to make a proper drink, a lost art these days. Ambiance is the only knock but they will pour in a mug if you ask.

Price is a bit high but that’s San Fran. I left with my wallet and phone so overall a win.

I rarely if ever leave reviews but I felt like considering the prices being charged I had to.

Maybe their coffee is better but the Matcha latte I ordered was incredibly watery and weak. Add on top the fact that they charged 8$ for it pre tip(higher than Blue bottle and paper sons - within a 2 block radius)

The shop itself seems nice , but can’t recommend a matcha here. Also no prices on the menu.

Awful. Ordered an Oatmilk Latte with lavender (2 espresso shots per their menu) and it tasted like warm lavender milk. No trace of espresso. Won’t be back

Good coffee and cute place with plenty of sunlight. However, not the best place to work as there is not a single charging outlet.

I visited this coffee shop for a quick meeting. The space had a modern, industrial-style design with plenty of seating—ideal for casual work sessions or extended stays.

The ordering process is self-service, done via touchscreens, which was convenient and efficient. I ordered a macchiato, which turned out to be quite good, and my guest had a latte, which he seemed to enjoy as well.

The atmosphere was quiet and conducive to conversation, making it a solid spot for a business chat. However, one downside was the restroom—it was locked and, once accessed, not particularly clean. That was surprising, especially for a coffee shop with such a well-designed front space.

Overall, it’s a great spot for quality coffee and conversation, though the restroom situation could use improvement.
