Robin's Cafe San Francisco Reviews
My partner and I loved working from this café. Free Wi-Fi, clean bathrooms, and lots of indoor and outdoor seating make it a great place to settle in. The staff are incredibly friendly, the lattes are excellent, and the croissants are fantastic. So happy we discovered this spot.
Incredible local and family owned cafe. I love coming here, they always make me feel welcome. The staff and owners are great, and food is really high quality with great ingredients and unique sandwich ideas! Love the sliders =) Coffee is delicious. Vibe is awesome. Great place to work and hang out for a bit.
The coffee, pastries, sandwiches, avocado toast, and house squeezed juices are all excellent. Definitely try the chocolate chip cookie! They also make a great chai, and they're one of only a few cafes around that has a pleasant space to get a little work done. Love this spot.
I’ve been here a handful of times starting in 2020. I stopped going because the gentleman that was running the place at that time. Said he was the owner turns out he was not. He was always rude pushy and not very engaging. I recently started going back and to my delight that gentleman was gone. I was greeted warmly by a young lady named Lili. she was welcoming, very warm, engaging and funny. She was able to accommodate what I wanted to eat. I’ve been back three times and will happily be a regular customer since it’s around the corner from the salon I have,and now a very pleasant spot to be in. the food quality is very good and delicious one day,I even met the mom who also works there and lovely. The Spanish-speaking support staff were also very kind and wonderful. I highly recommend this place if you’re in the area.
A charming little café in San Francisco served as the perfect spot for a rainy day lunch. I enjoyed a pulled pork sandwich and a matcha latte, which were just what I needed. The café had a spacious and cozy vibe, with friendly and welcoming staff. Sometimes, all you need is a simple meal and a good chat with a friend—and this place delivered exactly that for me.
Very charming coffee shop in the Mission. From keto friendly eats to excellent coffee choices, Robin's Cafe is an excellent choice! The owners and staff are super friendly as well!
Robins cafe is always a pleasure to walk into. Very friendly and I have always been greeted with kindness. Their coffee is soooooo good!! Their fresh made juices are delicious!!! I feel my body already feeling better. This place is great and I hope they get more support from the neighborhood❤️❤️they are across from a beautiful park and a garden that’s easy to walk around. Covid cautious. Outdoor seating and a delicious amount of food ❤️❤️❤️
Had a great meal here on 7.22.2022 Saturday. The chicken salad sandwich and California sliders were really well made.
Enrique was so helpful. The sandwich, pressed juice was amazing. This is one of those hidden gems not many folks know about in the city. Bathrooms are super nice and busy park across the street.
Such a beautiful peaceful vibe! Family owned and operated. The food is delicious and the customer service is out of this world. 10 out of 10 would recommend.
Best soup ever! Homemade. Tasty. Wanted to lick the bowl.
Delicious :) I really enjoyed my California sliders for breakfast; balanced flavors, fresh ingredients, yummm!

Good cafe that has plenty of seating and better than average cafe foods. It is a bit on the pricey side, but I feel it's worth it because it's not super crowded and you can get some good work done here. It's nice that it's located in the dance company building so you are in a way immersed in the art, including some pieces hanging on the walls, and contributing to it indirectly by frequenting this place.
the cafe is right across from a park - a good option for kids. The food is great and definitely would recommend the avocado toast and chicken salad sandwich. they have a pretty good snack selections like the banana bread and cookie. atmosphere is relaxing and staff is friendly
Best sandwich I’ve had in forever. Got the Deli sandwich with chicken and mozzarella 👌🏼 and the jasmine green iced tea had an amazing flavor. Will return 💚🤩

First impression was a bit sad as we were not greeted and it seemed we were interrupting their unpacking. Yet, when the food and drinks arrive, they were delicious. The avocado toast was simple with a tad too much salt. The tumeric ginger chai was quite good. I would order it again. The ambiance is a bit worn around the edges.
This is a really lovely place to sit and relax, or get some work done on a laptop. There's also beautiful outdoor seating when the weather's nice (which it often is in the Mission). The food and coffee are ok, not great. Everything is freshly made, many things are baked in-house, and the presentation (e.g. the avocado toast) can be quite lovely. But the flavor is a bit flat, sometimes. I think the espresso drinks are fine. Really enjoyed their ginger chai, though!

Nice small spot, great for a quick snack and coffee. Their croissants are huge!
Casual coffee spot that serves food as well as a variety of coffee drinks. Plenty of seating and WiFi available at this welcoming spot. Friendly staff and a nice place to relax with a cup of coffee.

I ordered an iced matcha latte with oat milk and some honey, and it tasted really watered down. I could barely taste any matcha or any oat milk. Maybe their hot drinks are better, but I'm confused about how this place has such highly rated reviews.

I ordered a coffee with oat milk and was given one made with regular milk. When I brought it back, the girl at the counter said, “Oh, it’s just my brother’s coffee,” like it was no big deal. Her brother also works there. Not only can I not drink dairy, but being handed someone else’s used cup is disgusting. The dismissive attitude made the whole experience even worse.
