Bazaar Cafe hosted our engagement party in their incredible garden. I can’t imagine a better place to host a gathering of 10-30 people. Their garden is beautiful and organic with plenty of books and crannies. It was a great place to host a party. Somehow the garden is always 5-10 degrees warmer than the rest of the city. It blocks the wind and keeps everyone cozy. We asked them to create a spread for us and they dazzled us with so many bite sized, delicious snacks for our guests. From a charcuterie board to bite sized Bundt cakes to buttermilk biscuits. They went above and beyond what could be expected. Oh and have I mentioned the cafe supports local artists and musicians?? It’s a cornerstone of the Richmond community. And we were so happy to celebrate in a place not only aligned with our values but where we know our money will help support the artists in our neighborhood. If I sound overly enthusiastic, it’s only because this is my favorite place in the city. Staffed by people who will get to know you and work with you to help share this incredible space for special events.

Lovely cafe in the Richmond with a sun-basked back patio that is absolutely a "hidden gem", charming, cozy, with lots of plants and several tables all in different layouts. Feels like a great place to grab a coffee or brunch with friends. I had a breakfast biscuit as a quick bite and it was very tasty, though seems a bit petit to me.

I love everything about this cafe! Their drinks are expertly made and their food options are delectable. I would highly recommend the chagachinos, biscuits, and pastries. There's also an adorable backyard garden that perfectly blocks the wind, creating a warm and sunny hideaway. On top of the amazing food and drinks, they also showcase so much of the community! They have a weekly open mic and display/sell rotating work from local artists.

Lovely cafe with passionate people running the show. Loved the creativity toward tea drinks as much as coffee drinks. Enjoyed a big cup of both the fujian fog and mountain mist while reading. The Fujian Fog with regular milk was well balanced and delightful while the strong campfire aroma from the Mountain Mist, which is inspired by South African braai BBQ, was comforting while exciting. Can’t wait to spend another afternoon here in the future.

What a cool spot in Richmond. Walked into Avett Brothers “I and love and you” playing. Ordered an ice tea and “The Biscuit” with honey butter — yum! They have wifi and open mics.

A true gem in the heart of SF. The homemade biscuit was fluffy and full of flavor and the chagaccino was delicious. The space is great for working or hanging out and listening to music. The patio is to die for; very spacious, and the staff was friendly. Can’t recommend this place enough!

Excellent spot for brunch! Their lattes are absolutely amazing! I usually avoid caramel of any type but in the latte it was beautifully balanced and a nice addition. The curry was served hot and yummy. We wanted to try a few things and the employee was nice enough to let us know that we can do a side soup so that we lessen the amount of side salads that would come with each menu item. Sat in the backyard patio and it was lovely, there was shade and a garden out back and it was an enjoyable start to the day.

Always a treat to visit! Truly yummy espresso drinks, surprisingly good quality! Great staff. Love the pottery they serve their drinks in. Yummy biscuits too. Lovely patio out back. The cutest neighborhood vibe.

Loved the calm vibe, live music felt intimate and warm. Their honey lavender biscuit and the biscuit were delicious. Enjoyed the tea lattes!

Dunno what's up with that 1 star review from a few weeks ago, but I'm here to rebut it. This is a most lovely cafe with great vibes, comforting drinks, and delicious food (I much prefer their biscuits over the ones we had growing up in Alabama). The staff is awesome. Everything tastes better when you're here. Cheers!

What a gem of a place. The cappuccino I had was stand-out even among fancy coffee shops. And the place was full of character and life—like it was from a world untouched by the corporate takeover of fancy coffee shops. It's the sort of place you could read or write a book in: light, airy, seasoned yet clean. The owners are super cool and aren't absentee—they're working right there behind the bar. I was there for the Bazaar Lit Salon (a great reading series!) and will definitely be back.

Genuinely one of the best cafes I’ve been to in SF. Calm music, really nice people at the counter. The biscuits are DELICIOUS. The garden outside is really cool. Early October is the perfect time to visit.

Great service! The cashier was super friendly. The Iced Matcha Latte and Honey Lavender Latte (hot) were delicious! 😋

There’s not enough good things to say about Bazaar Cafe. Loved chatting with the barista/ cashier who had invented 2 signature coffee/ teas on the menu. Tried Mt Fuji Mist tea (sprinkled with Hibiscus sugar), the Caramel Rose Latte, and an Oolong bundt cake. Ended up going on a Friday evening, and there was an indie musician performing - very nice vibes. Grab a board game or read a book, or simply get lost in your thoughts in the cafe. Walked out into the backyard and it’s the most cozy little garden tucked away in the city and is perfect for hosting events. I left the cafe, wanting to go back there again.

Such a lovely atmosphere and really good food! Got a sandwich blueberry turnover and an oat latte - they were all amazing. Highly recommend

Love this local cafe with a South African influence. Their biscuits are unreal and you can’t go wrong with any topping — whether it’s smoked honey butter, jam, egg and cheese, meat, even curry! Always friendly and very impressive coffee as well. Don’t miss the outdoor garden in the back, really nice when the weather is good. They also do live events that are really creative, including music but also science, conversations, all kinds of neat things.

The breakfast buttermilk biscuits with egg and cheese is INSANELY good. The coffee is delicious, the staff are kind humans and they have plenty of seating inside and on the back patio!!

Came here to listen to this afternoon's live music . The garden in the back is a perfect place for Sunday afternoon jazz. Inside the cafe is great for a reading session, working or a quiet conversation. It is cozy and there are nooks in the space to do your thing.

It's a very quiet area! The inside of the building is very nice, like a vintage home. The workers there are dedicated, and offer a simple selection of options that although medium, they have a unique look to them! I only had a hot chocolate, but I'll definitely come back to try the rest of them!

TO BIPOC CUSTOMERS — PLEASE BE AWARE: I’ve visited this café a few times, and on more than one occasion, my order was delayed while others who arrived after me were served first. Most recently, I waited over 30 minutes for a simple biscuit with butter and jam—even though the biscuits were already prepped and sitting on the counter. I finally asked about my order and mentioned that this has happened before. I also asked if it might be because I’m a POC (darker-skinned woman of color) because I was the only dark person in the cafe. No one responded, but my order was suddenly completed within one minute. I’m always respectful, I tip generously, and I try to give people the benefit of the doubt. But this will be my last visit. These patterns may be subtle—but they’re very real.
