Steep Brew San Francisco Reviews
If you get the right cook, the food is bomb. I get the chicken club 99% of the time. Great workspace

I'm giving this 5 stars on value alone. The beer and wine selection is pretty impressive, and the menu has enough choices for a nice snack or easy dinner. The best part is the house wine options, with a pretty nice track record of good pours and great tasting house wine at reasonable prices. Grab some food upstairs or just bring your laptop to enjoy the free wifi. They've always got a game on and it's pretty relaxed. Check in frequently for their latest draft additions, as they have a great selection of craft beers, as well!
Lots a space, quiet and not very crowded. Great coffee. Open till 10pm which later than most other coffee shops nearby. Plenty of tables to work at on your laptop, many power outlets. Plenty of available free street parking nearby.
Trendy spot above Whole Paycheck. Expensive coffees and beers on tap but offers a nice place to work with free WiFi and parking in the whole foods garage (for up to 2 hours)
My favorite place to get a mocha and do some work. Great coffee and plenty of food options to choose from with the neighboring burger place and Whole Foods.
Surprisingly good food and drink for it being a part of the Whole Foods store above. They have a great selection of beers, and cheap flights!
Cafe (and bar) attached to Whole Foods. Tons of seating, outlets, and wifi.
Great BLTs and tasty beers at a cool location.
Friendly staff and free seltzer water

They don’t serve craft beer here anymore. So now it’s basically a just a spacious and mellow cafe. That isn’t a bad thing, but it doesn’t have the same vibes these days. The coffee is so so, but there’s generally space to spread out and chill. Plus you can grab groceries and whatever upstairs.
Lots of open space to work, will make you a decent coffee. Whole foods is adjunct so they'll serve you anything whole foods has. Only problem is the wifi isn't great: Keeps disconnecting every 45 minutes or so, so not really possible to get work done. If that were fixed it would be 5 stars.
Taking advantage of the terrain, Whole Foods built this downstairs pub that is also street accessible. I've come here for beer launch and chocolate pairing events. My latest learning was that chocolate pairs better with beer than wine but that might have just been the beer talking. Whole Foods deserves some local cred, in that they showcase local brews and chocolates. Steep brew is conveniently located around the corner and down the hill from Anchor Brewing Company. After that tour and tasting at Anchor you can literally roll past the chocolatier, provision yourself, and roll on down to Steep Brew for your own private chocolate pairing. Caution: skateboards not advised.
Great place downstairs from Whole Foods and literally next door to a "meatless burger" joint, to hang out and chill a bit. They serve Whole Foods coffee and alcohol. Pretty good place to stop by after work.
Cafe at Whole Foods serves big tasty burgers, sandwiches, and salads.
Cool place to hang out and grab a quick meal or watch a game. Great beer, free wifi
Great draft beer selection, whole foods pizza is surprisingly good.
Good Nosh at restaurant under Whole Foods market in Potrero Hill

Very knowled on knowledgeable bar tenders. Chalkboard where you can buy friends beers and they can show up later to down them. Excellent beers on tap with a rotating menu - many you won't find elsewhere in the city on tap.
This was a lot better before that vegan burger place moved in. I hope it bombs so we can have our cafe back. With a proper burger. Nice beer selection though.
Their midpriced drinks are OK but their Chai tea drink is pretty good.
