Rich and his team are amazing. The moment I sipped the Coco de Mer, it was love. Dark chocolate, coconut, and coffee?! Come on. I hate overly syrupy drinks and am a habitual black coffee drinker but this was definitely worth the foray. Order food here, it ensure you're back the next day for more.

July 2022: Tried the roast beef sandwich and a veggie sandwich. Both were really good. I thought the veggie sandwich was really unique and delicious! The bread 🍞 is really good for sandwiches. Nice and light. People come here for the coffee drinks but I think people should come back for the sandwiches 🥪!

Really tasty food and milkshake, didn’t try the coffee unfortunately. We had some really nice sandwiches, they weren’t too heavy on the gut, perfect for after running :)

I actually get in my car to drive out here. It’s a lovely spot to sit in the sunshine and their coffee is great! I haven’t had their food, but I was surprised to see that they have a menu for dogs at San Francisco prices which I thought was quite funny. Cappuccino was fantastic and the ambient music playing in the background gives a nice urban vibe.

I love SPRO so much! I come here every time I go to SF (one day Spark Social was closed for a private event, and I was heartbroken). Baristas here treat all guests like friends and everything on their food and coffee menus (and also on a secret menu) is nothing less than amazing and wonderful! If you don't know what coffee to get, try Coco de Mer or Orange Blossom

It was my first time going there and I didn't have time to ask about they're story, but it's a curious food truck. They make delicious coffee and food. The food didn't seem to match the coffee part (to me) which is why I'll ask next time. I had yummiest crab cake with spicy sauce and my husband had a perfectly prepared espresso. I look forward to my next visit!

Beautiful presentation as well as tastes good (especially coming from a food truck)! Located in Spark Social, Spro has a delicious brunch/breakfast/small bites menu :) I had the Southern Bell (red velvet waffles), the Umami Bomb (avocado toast), and the Farmer's Market! Would definitely recommend the Umami Bomb!!

I found this place on Yelp looking for a coffee shop walkable from chase center and I’m glad I did!! I got the mardi gras cold brew-bomb! My friend got the Island Hop- ube/coconut flavors(which I tried). flavors are strong! they have a good selection of coffee/teas on their menu. I absolutely recommend this place!

Linda Grigorik

I love their toasts and all their savory bites. The non alcoholic drinks are just the perfect refreshments for hot weather! Try their Sangria and umami bomb toast!

I randomly stopped here with my wife for a little brunch and was surprised at how much I enjoyed my turkey sandwich. All the ingredients were really fresh. Great deli meat, the Manresa ciabatta roll was insane and so was the smoked guava (I think?) sauce. And the Mardi Gras iced coffee was delicious.

Good coffee and I enjoyed all the pastries I tried. Atmosphere is not that great (at least it wasn't at the time we went). The reason I gave a 4 for service is that the server omitted telling me that the pourover I was about to get was almost three times as expensive as the usual ones. (the price was not listed and he just said it was a new offering... I just didn't imagine it would be ~$16 for a small cup! I should have asked...)

I ordered the Umami Bomb $17. I'm so disappointed, it's not ikura but tobiko. It taste amazing though with avacodo, Furikake flakes, chili flakes, and the slightly truffle oiled warm toast. 12/07/25.

Smoke & Mirrors – A lighter, less sweet option for black coffee enthusiasts. – The rose flavor was too subtle—I’d have liked it to stand out more. – The sparkly presentation made it visually stunning! My boyfriend and I stopped by SPRO Coffee Lab while apartment hunting and exploring Spark Social SF. This coffee shop stood out with its unique and creative menu. The drinks we tried were good, but I’m eager to come back and explore more of their offerings, including their pastries. If you’re in the area, I definitely recommend checking out this spot for something a little different! Date Visited: 12/7/2024

Creative coffee and food truck in the Spark Social food court. I had their coco de mer, which is latte with dark chocolate and coconut. It was great, although mostly I tasted chocolate but not so much of coconut. Another time I had a special iced espresso drink and it was pretty interesting though given the small size and ice cubes it's just a few sips. On the other hand, I don't feel like getting the 16oz and paying $7 upward for just a coffee. Since this is located in a food court, there is plenty of outdoor seating around and right in front of the coffee shop are some cute sunny tables by a modified tour bus. I absolutely enjoyed a little reading here with the lovely coffee.

At 8am, there were quite a bit of people there (three were waiting for their order and two were in front of us in line). I called them 30min ahead for the pickup order but still had to wait 15 minutes before they had my order ready. I picked up coco de mer and a strawberry guava pillow. My friends got a few brown butter chocolate sea salt cookies to share.The drink was definitely on the bitter side and quite rich. Not sure if they omitted the condensed milk too since I chose the oat milk option... The pastries were definitely the stars of the show. The pillow had just the right amount of tart and it felt like a warm embrace but with buttery crunchy texture. The cookie was sweet but balanced out with the sea salt. Super buttery as well. If I do swing by again, will be trying other pastries for sure and maybe a different drink.

+1 for environmental friendliness with provision of compostable utensils/containers +1 for quick prep +1 friendly staff However, the presentation was lacking. I was definitely expecting something more exciting out of the smoke & mirrors drink, which ended up being just that - smoke and mirrors. Edible gold dust? Didn’t see it in the drink. The sandwich looked pretty vanilla. The taste was also lacking. The pulled pork sandwich tasted more like a school cafeteria sloppy joe (you may be into that but I wasn’t). The coffee had an interesting floral flavor but I’m not sure it would really be anyone’s “go to” drink. But that’s just me. Would have given 4/5 but the price points at $7 for a drink and $11 for pulled pork sandwich leaves a slight bitter taste in my palate and leaves me feeling that I didn’t get the best foodie ROI. Also, not sure I get a lot of experimental “lab” out of the textures/tastes/presentation.

The oat-milk cappuccino was disappointing. The milk was clearly overheated, which gave the drink a strange, bitter taste and took away its creamy texture.

The establishment has a very limited / nearly no selection of vegan items and, unfortunately charges extra for vegan milk (but not less if you want to make the single dish available — umami bomb —, vegan). It does call out vegan items on the menu, which is appreciated.

9$ for a ham and cheese croissant. They keep raising their prices. I can’t justify it anymore. UPDATE: Since someone responded. The blue bottle item is a ham and cheese sandwich/baguette, not croissant. The croissants run $7. And Starbucks ham and cheese is $4.95 according to the van ness location.

My friend and I heard about their new Manresa Bread collab and decided to give it a try. We got a chocolate croissant and pistachio baklava escargot to share. Sadly, the croissant was deflated and missing that signature flaky, buttery texture. The escargot looked promising but barely had any pistachio flavor. Unfortunately, their coffee didn't redeem the experience either. It was overpriced for the quality and not very espresso-forward.

I’ve never waited 15 minutes for a coffee and unfortunately it was very bitter. We ordered an oat latte and mocha. You have to pay 1 dollar for vegan milk.
