Another good spot to take a daytime breather or do some light work (the natural light is gorg). They use great beans & great milk=latte & black coffee is good.
Really beautiful split-level space with really excellent coffee and great sweet and savoury pastries. Watch the coffee being roasted and bagged while you drink.
No Wi-Fi. Great place to read and get work done unplugged from Internet. A pour over of any kind and the atmosphere will definitely get the creativity going. (via @elatlboy) Read more
Great drinks, great space. But it can be sweltering in the summer — there's no AC, and having a giant on-site roaster means there's a literal furnace in here.
Everything you would like to find in a coffee shop of high quality. The only thing that prevents me from going is the lack of an air conditioning system. It is unbearable on sunny days.
Great coffee... Although I made the mistake of ordering a red eye (not on the "menu") ... $7.25 and 2 separate pickup locations for the espresso & coffee. But hey - that's some good coffee :)
Despite the initial feeling of excessive hipsterism, the space is spacious and airy, coffee best in the city, fun people watching, nice baristas (yes, really).
The most aesthetically pleasing shop in the Bay Area. Music volume is perfect. Coffees are splendid, pastries lovely. Not a cheap date, but you will score.
Sightglass's beans are slightly darker roasted than Four Barrel's and Blue Bottle's. Not a bad or good thing, per say, but a useful thing to know in case you particularly like or dislike darker roasts

Great coffee, pastries and space. People watch from the upstairs ledge or the front window. No wifi for working, though there's lots of people with laptops.
