Best breakfast sandwich in Russian hill! Staff are nice♥️

Do not visit, and definitely do not buy coffee here. It comes out burnt and bitter. All pastries are bought and not homemade. Sandwiches are subpar.Street waiting area gets crowded if there are 3+ customers...

Amazing fresh breakfast sandwiches, coconut milk cappuccinos, and really wonderful friendly people.

Very frustrating that a coffee shop doesn’t open until 830!!! That’s way too late for a coffee shop to open. Please open earlier and I’ll change my review to 5 stars!

Best coffee & friendliest staff with a little treat window for puppies :)

Great breakfast sandwiches & coffee - they can even make a rad flat white.The wait time was very long on a Monday though (~945am). Took me 30 mins (only 2 people were there when I arrived) to receive my food & 1 other customer who ordered a coffee & bagel had to leave after 15 mins of waiting to drop his child off at school.Maybe they were understaffed for the AM shift, but just wanted to share if you're in a rush - perhaps to call ahead.

Small local spot. Loved how they knew so much about their regulars and how they always want to catch up. It is dog friendly with a dog window were one of the staff will hand out dog treats. It’s amazing that they have so many options and add-ons for the breakfast sandwich. Also loved the amount of avocado they put in the sandwich.

The BEST breakfast spot in Russian hill by far. It's so nice to support a small, family owned business and no matter what you order on their menu, it's delicious. They're breakfast sandwiches are my favorite, but I have to say that even a simple bagel and cream cheese here just hits different. Specialty Drinks/coffee are to die for as well and I'd go here every day if my bank account let me lol

Best breakfast sandwich I have had in awhile. Went back 2 days in a row and want to take all my friends there. Call ahead cause sometimes it's a bit of a wait.

This place have one of the most friendliest staff members there. The breakfast sandwhiches I would highly recommend is the Stevie's way sandwhich with croissant. It just melts in your mouth. Has a little spicy in it that gives it a kick. When I first visit, I wasn't sure what to get. But Loan recommended the Stevie's way and I'm just hooked! Me and kids have been going back every weekend.

I ordered lemongrass chicken vermicelli bowl togo, which didn't come with any sauce. It was horrible to eat dry noodles, chicken, lettuce without anything, and waste $16. I called to complain and they only offered me to drive all the way back to pick up the sauce. I won't be coming back here again.

Best cafe and the sweetest staff. The service can be on the slower side but it is always worth it. Everything they serve is wonderful. Added bonus: all the dogs that stop by the windows on their walks for the staff to give them a dog treat.

Been to this local cafe couple times! One of the best Vietnamese style coffee in town. They no longer serve tofu bahn mi but mozzarella sun dried tomato panini and tofu vermicelli salad are a great vegetarian substitutes. My only complaint is they close by 1:30pm.
