Lovely casual spot for coffee and food, $12 for a breakfast sandwich and coffee, this is rare in SF! Good selection of black coffee roasts. Hesds up only takes cash, zelle, or venmo.

Hummus veggie sandwich was sooo good. My wife loved the turkey bacon sandwich too. Excellent! I went by another review. Thank you.

Lovely staff, lovely service, tasty mochas. We frequented these guys for a couple years while living in the city - Iced Mocha is the way to go. Humble looking establishment from the outside but serves the neighborhood well. Thanks guys,

This café with indoor and outdoor seats is worth the short stroll from Haight. Great sandwich variety for $9.75. Flavorful coffee. Friendly service.

Best bagel sandwich in the city - specifically the egg, cheddar, & spinach on asiago. Service is friendly and prompt, atmosphere is casual and relaxed. Favorite quick brekkie spot!

Had a turkey bacon club sandwich and it was delicious. Only bummer is it’s cash/venmo/Zelle only.

Wonderful place for drinks and food. Great selection of both, and they have about 8 different drip coffees. Been there many times and really like their service, coffee and food. Highly recommended local cafe!

Great little stop for coffee and breakfast/lunch items. My ginger chai had great flavor. It could have been hotter for my taste. The person serving me was new and didn’t yet know the menu or prices. She was friendly enough and will be good once trained up. The spinach mushroom wrap was good, a little salty and greasy for my taste. Be sure to bring cash, Venmo, or Zelle. They don’t take cards.

Cheapest place to get a cup of coffee and the specialty drinks are good, but make sure you bring cash only. They have a venmo and zelle option, but the store is a dead zone. I ended up paying for my coffee and having to leave without it because the app wouldn't load, and the store wouldn't accept an email receipt as proof of payment.

This place was decent. CASH ONLY The egg sandwiches were really quite good but our peppermint coffee didn't taste like peppermint or coffee and for 2 sandwiches and 2 drinks it was $25 which is a little steep, even in the days of 7$ coffees at Starbucks. The staff were very friendly and it was cozy enough. It served it's purpose.

I stopped by this establishment. I wanted to order 2 Turkey bacon clubs and I was told by the older lady working there (assuming it’s the owner) that they didn’t have any Turkey so she offered to chicken instead in substitution. I said yes. As we were talking and she was ringing up the transaction, she told me the total $23.35 and she asked cash or Venmo. I said Venmo and didn’t think much of it at that moment but thought it’s a bit pricey. I looked at the menu and the price is $8.75 each plus tax which this transaction didn’t make sense. I kindly asked her and she said she charged $2.00 each extra for bacon. I said you never told me that, you offered a substitution to a meat that you didn’t not have. I asked her for a copy of the receipt and she didn’t give me one so I took a picture of it. She didn’t refund me for the inconvenience and for her mistake. As as I was getting home, I was talking to my neighbor and told them if they have gone to this restaurant, they said it’s been a while since they had a similar situation with them overcharging for sandwiches without disclosing it, kinda like she’s money hungry and wants to tip herself. This establishment practices shady tactics and I’m sure since it’s cash only and Venmo, I’m sure they are dodging taxes. I have also reached out to Venmo to ensure their account is set up as a merchant account and not private, we should all pay our fair share of taxes.

I am a brown presenting person and I came here with my friend (who is white) and the person working was insinuating that I didn't pay for my food and drink. however, with my friend, the person didn't ask for any confirmation whatsoever. extremely unwelcoming toward people of color.

Staff is really sweet and I love the ambiance. It’s a cute little cafe! Ordered an almond latte but it was undrinkable. My friend ordered a latte and there was definitely something off with the milk. Overall gross lattes.

I work on the same block and often try to go well out of my way to avoid this place. This morning I only had a couple of minutes so I popped in for a black iced coffee. It was undrinkably bad. Literally could only take a sip, make a face and set it down. Perhaps they don’t clean their brewing pots regularly? Or let the beans mold? It was disgusting. Barista was nice, I still tipped via Venmo, but I won’t keep putting myself through that. Ugh!

Accepting cash but refusing service because there’s no change is not the customer’s fault. The staff’s attitude was rude, and the situation was handled very poorly. What a bad experience.

Had 2 lattes, both burnt milk and tough to return back. Would not recommend for good coffee. If you do just do iced or black
