Love the low key unpretentious and friendly atmosphere of this place. The local community seems to love hanging out at this cafe which is great to see.

Good coffee & excellent breakfast cookies (Egyptian shortbread is out of this world as is the almond cake from Dianda’s). Fresh bagels from House of Bagels but I didn't see any plant based cream cheese. The chai is A++ as is the service. Love their dining room; a nice throwback, friendly neighborhood cafe.
Simple Pleasures exemplifies the idea of a neighborhood coffee shop: a community gathering spot with relaxed vibes, where you can talk with friends, curl up with a book, work on your laptop or just people-watch. The bathroom is nicely decorated with stickers, the cafe has a good variety of drinks and food, and the operating hours are welcoming. A must-visit if you enjoy that type of scene and are in the area!

Really light, soft fluffy croissants, and good breakfast sandwiches.
Attached is a photo of me swimming from my home in Vallejo to Simple Pleasures Cafe. I love the coffee there, but the staff are what keeps me coming back! Broke the speed record for that swim!

Simple Pleasures offers a very classic Richmond district cafe experience - multitude of pastry/protein bar/snack options with a wide array of coffee & food options as well (mostly sandwiches). The vibes in here are great, it’s longer than you’d think and plenty of space to work. Musician came in and played very relaxed music. Also a slight warning! There’s a simple pleasures coffee roasters that comes before it but that’s not this one. We got confused!

Great coffee ☕️ and food is delicious. I was here every morning and afternoon during my stay in San Francisco and would recommend to anyone looking for great coffee, food and a really chill atmosphere to relax and or meet some really cool locals to learn some history about SF, Thanks Mike and Jon 😊
Atmosphere would be perfect if they’d put up a sign saying “no cell phones” or “keep your zoom meetings to a minimum”; young woman’s giving an HR onboarding in the back room and has been talking for 45 minutes, really killing the atmosphere for folks who are just want to hang out and read or whatever.

Near the ocean, can be chilly at the outside tables. Closes at 10 30 p.m.

Always looking for vegan eats. This place is just fine. I can’t taste the garlic or onions in their hummus. So likely Jain! Awesome. Thanks!

The staff are welcoming and quick. Did not try the food, however, having the choice of caffiene or beer is fantastic!
