Blue Bottle Coffee - San Francisco

Knowledgeable staff and great coffee to match! Great location and stellar vibe inside.

Our favorite spot for coffee. Excellent coffee, food, and service. However, the bathroom is always filthy and it stinks so much. Often times, there are no more toilet paper. Would be super if they can clean it more often and also do something about the odor.

My Uncle introduced me to these chain a couple months ago and since I came back to SF again and they were right up the street from where we ate I went to try them again from a location I hadn’t tried yet. My Sweet Latte was still as delicious as I remember but for the price it’s hard to justify. It was also in a smaller cup than the other location but that could have been on me not specifying size. Still I would probably come back because the quality is pretty hard to beat. 4.7/5.

Price at the counter was upped for choosing to dine in.. that left me feeling a bit ripped given that more than half of the patrons in the shop had takeaway cups, and there was zero table service anyway. $8+ then for a macha late is excessive. I’m also yet to understand the service of Americanos at boiling temperature.

It's hard to beat Blue Bottle's coffee, but food options aren't great, and the wifi is pretty slow. There is only one outlet as well, so there are plenty of better options if you need to work. It's a great option for getting coffee to go for a walk around the area, though!
