    Big neighborhood coffee shop with plenty of space to work. An Ethiopian pour-over and morning glory muffin will start your weekend off right.

    Had a great coffee here when we visited SF; one of the best few. Nice place but the atmosphere was rather cold and the limited places to sit were taken up by people silently pawing at their macbooks.

    Good coffee shop to get work done. Lots of seating. Free Wi-Fi; although, it only works for 2 hours at a time then has to be renewed (doesn't work well in the back). Coffee is good. Service is good.

    One of the best coffeeshops in SF. The coffee is well extracted and has a great combination of sourness and bitterness from extraction, and the right amount of sweetness from the milk.

    Cold brew in mason jars, great pastries and biscotti, lots of seating, trendy and laid back atmosphere, and a back patio if you'd like to enjoy your coffee al fresco :)

    The Ethiopian pour over is nutty and rich. Well worth ordering if they have it. The very berry buttermilk cake and the flourless brownie are both very good.

    Gorgeous open setup with great single-origin roasts. Upper end for price but a small menu done properly. They serve their nitro cold brew like a beer and I like that. Also has a cool little patio

    Siphon coffee = $5. They served me their Kenya roast: amazing sweetness - a citrus after taste when I let it cool down a bit (as instructed by barista). Drink black is a must to enjoy to fullest!

    Friendly staff, good service, and a great spot to get a cup of coffee. With Whole Foods Market next door, it’s even easier to get that grocery run done.

    Love protein power bars and cappuccinos here! Sometimes hard to find a seat, but it's nice to sit inside or out in the little backyard.

    Great service. Really liked the cold brew in a Mason jar (go figure). Had the Malawi on a Syphon brew, pretty tasty. If I attended or worked at USF, I'd probably live here.

    Nice selection of coffee brewing methods. Almost the entire place is filled with people on laptops and they require you to purchase something every 2 hours to keep your wifi connection.

    The mason jars for water are really cute! Great music and light chatter make this a great coffee shop to spend the afternoon.

    Hands down, best coffee in the Haight. Every cup is brewed individually, just for you. Lots of cool decor. Great place to bring the laptop and get some work done.

    In a city filled with fantastic coffee, this one leads the way. Unlike those other coffee shops, Flywheel is completely void of douchey employees. Fantastic place.

    Coffee is good to the point where it's kind of lost on me. This place doesn't try to hide the fact that people come to work and offers OK wifi (with a time limit) and a functional number of outlets

    They make you give them all your information and your first born to get on the god damn wifi. They just have teabag tea - put scalding hot water in a bag - is pretty shit bro.

    Iced coffee tasted (and smelled) like burnt popcorn. Patio is gorgeous, but small, and the wifi doesn't reach out there. Near the entrance the wifi is great, though, at ~16mbps.

    Get the peanut butter protein bar and sit by the window for front row seats to the bum fights outside!
