Ayaka NonakaJune 10, 2011Grab a latté and an interesting flavored Dynamo Donut of your choice, sit by the window, and people watch.
Best mass brewed cup of coffee in SF . Contraband for single pour on nob hill
Ron BoydDecember 23, 2013Depends on how your are know here. Even if you order first you could get your coffee last.
The $2 drip coffee is the best cup of coffee in San Francisco.
Check for pop ups in the alley entrance. Today it was b.patisserie with awesome pastries
Carlos SessaDecember 30, 2012If you are reading this in the line, you should know that you can get stuff for takeout from the back.
enjoy the boars heads on the wall to the left as you wait in line
savoryexposure.comAugust 17, 2011Get an espresso drink crafted by dedicated baristas - some of the best coffee in the city
have everything, because you won't find better anything. bonus: unlike nearby rivals, the staff here smile readily and wash their faces regularly.
The trick to avoid the line is to use the alley entrance
No pourovers on the weekday anymore, and $3.75 for a cup of the batch brew? What? 🤬
Thê-Minh TrinhSeptember 2, 2014Another hipster place, isn't it? But they serve a good coffee, roasted on site.
Go try fresh filter coffees instead of getting in the line for classics.
The "slow coffee" bar is often faster than the regular line. Try refining your coffee palette and ask for tips on how to taste the single plantations
Bosie MoncrieffSeptember 3, 2017The coffee is too expensive--the $5 latte barely edges out ritual--but the quality is there. Hot chocolate blah, go to dandelion to scratch that itch.
MikaJanuary 9, 2018Beware that the owner of Four Barrel is an alleged sexual assaulter and harasser. See
Very good pastry and donut selection, and easily top 3 coffee makers in SF.
One of several excellent places to get coffee drinks in the Mish.
All the neighbors know, hit up the alley for no line and a little sun.
On weekends they open an area in the back on Caledonia Alley. Only 1 barista, but no lines so ends up being far faster
