    Latte with cinnamon
    Noopur D.

    The coffee was nothing crazy but the interior was very cute! Love the cozy vibes and we hung around there for a bit and played the table topics games. It's a nice spot and service was good, there was just one barista and she was nice! I wish there were more various types of lattes instead of just adding a flavor to it. I got the latte with cinnamon, and it was just alright.

    We stopped by this place for breakfast one morning during the Dreamforce event. The place was crowded (likely due to the event) and therefore service was a little slow. I ordered a Latte and a Bacon & Egg breakfast sandwich. The breakfast sandwich was very small .....for how much it cost it seemed a little out of proportion. The sandwich was fine, but nothing special. If I am being honest, this is not the pace to come for food....but the latte was nice and tasty treat. The actual place was small and woudl be a great place for one to hang out and drink coffee at a less busy time.

    Bacon, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwich and a vanilla latte
    Kelly L.

    Stopped by here Sunday morning and got a vanilla latte and bacon, egg and cheese breakfast sandwich. Latte was good but I was kind of disappointed by the sandwich. It was premade and came out of a plastic wrapped bag and heated up in the toaster. Was not freshly made and also pretty small for $8. The employee working was nice but I could tell she was overwhelmed. It was only her working so she had to work the register, make drinks and food all by herself. Please hire more staff so your employees are not so stressed!! There was a long line and orders were taking awhile to come out. This inside of the cafe is cute, decent amount of seating and books/games available to play. This cafe is located inside a hotel so it's convenient for people who are staying here. I don't think I'd return but glad I tried it out!

    The atmosphere is very cute and calming. Small and limited seating but overall comfy vibes. Ordered a bagel and croissant both were very good just a tad expensive but to be expected with a small coffee shop. The coffee was good, nothing too special but good. The lady at the front seemed rushed but still took time to get our order correct.

    Good place to chill and work, have a coffee or snack. But please don't order the "muffuletta" sandwich. Something tasted funny. I'm not eating this. I managed the bread, but I'm fearful about the bites I already took.

    This coffee shop is located directly below the hotel. There's plenty of books and board games available for customers, which I thought was a nice touch and feature for customers. Their cold brew was pretty standard and perfect for a hot or 70+ degrees SF day. I also enjoyed their breakfast sandwich. I had the sausage, egg and cheese. The perfect pick you up as you check out of the hotel. My only gripe was timing. Not too sure if they are equipped to make everything on their menu under 15 minutes. It took quite a while to make the breakfast sandwich. Other than someone sitting down (who had already gotten their coffee) I was the only person in the shop. There were also two people working there, so you would think with the 2:1 employee:customer ratio, the service would be a lot quicker.

    So it's not technically a small business coffee shop by the way - owned by and attached to a Hilton hotel. That being said, the coffee and espresso is good and there's a great selection of beverages. Average baked goods and mini quiches.

    Located in the former Funny Library Coffee shop, Bean Bar Café is the new coffee shop at the Canopy by Hilton. Their cold brew is fantastic. The barista didn't know where it's from, so I'll report back later - but it seems to come premade from a third party vendor. They have both regular cold brew and nitro available. Main downside is fairly high prices, even for SF - my cold brew was $6. I live nearby, so I'm excited to have a new coffee shop. See menu photo, attached.

    Double espresso

    My espresso was good. The baileys latte my wife ordered, she wasn't a fan of it, she didn't finish it. My son got an $8.00 cranberry juice which was outrageous for a 16 ounce or so cranberry juice. We ordered food, which we thought was going to be made. It was premade food in wrappers that was just tossed in the microwave. Service was good. She was quick for being by herself. The store itself was cool, books and stuff as its decor. I don't think we'd eat here again.

    I went here in the morning to get a drink and I LOVE this place! The barista was super nice when I asked her for recommendations. There's also a lot of seating, with a longer table and smaller tables with pillows for getting coffee with a friend. There are also OUTLETS everywhere which is so convenient for studying or doing work in general. I love the natural lighting and options for seating. A cafe gem!

    Cute café attached to the hotel we are staying at. We went here our first morning for breakfast. The food is tasty and made to order. I really liked my Decaf Latte with Almond Milk and a shot of Dark Chocolate. I went back the next morning and the girl remembered my order, which was nice. There's lots of books and games for customers to use while there.

    The only thing break bar has going is the ambiance. The coffee ended up being a one sip, then tossed.

    All around pleasant experience in terms of both the service and coffee. I had the flight and…read morethought it was overall good. They explained that the flight includes an espresso shot, espresso shot with milk, hot coffee, and iced coffee. I hadn't had a straight espresso shot before, so this wasn't for me personally just because it was so overpowering. I enjoyed the other three though. Like the majority of SF, parking is difficult to locate. I was dropped off nearby the location. There is indoor and outdoor seating; I was able to grab an empty spot late in the morning on a weekend, but I don't think seating is always readily available. It's not a huge space.

At 11 am on a Sunday they were out of their best- black sesame Kouign Amann and the Raspberry Almond Croissant, which I took care of by paying a visit to Juniper bakery (sister business) later in the day. The Mocha with the house made nut milk fell flat. It needed something. I am not a fan of syrupy coffees and appreciate the more purist approach but this one just didn't do anything for me. The chai latte which I would never order was actually the best chai latte I have ever had, it was smooth like silk. Maybe I just had the wrong coffee order. Besides that, got the hot chocolate and the coffee tasting. I was surprised there was no explanation provided with the coffee- I figured it's all Honduran but an overview of some sort would have helped. I enjoyed all the coffees in there except the latte. Will visit again, earlier in the day so they are not out of their best sellers and try a different order.

I've…read moreheard this place has one of the best katsu sando around and as a lover of Katsu, I couldn't skip it. There's some good places in SF like Cafe Okawari. But Katsu is really becoming the new hype of the day for Japanese food, following the Sushi, Ramen, Japanese Curry, Katsu trend. So I came in with a critical view. I feel like Yoshoku in general may be next but I yet again digress. The box sandwich came in a cute little box. The inside was packed so I couldn't get a chance to fully appreciate the cafe, but the service was nice though the pay line may have moved slower than hoped. I'll say this. This is "the" best katsu sando in the bay. The katsu is crispy, but little on the softer side. But this hardness matches perfectly with the absolutely tender, soft, juicy pork wrapped inside. I'm looking at the menu again and it all makes sense. The pork has been in shio koji, making the meat ever so tender while adding the subtle but complicated marinated flavor. The cabbage is plenty, but not over packed to take away from the main Katsu flavor. What really perfects it for me, was not only the sweet and savory katsu sauce, but the mayo with dash of I think a karashi mustard. That slight tingle, the perfect kick gives a powerful awakening of flavor that really sets the it apart. This is art, an artisan. Culinary art is the refuge no raging rampant AI slop "art" can ever hope to touch. Until the day we get some cyborg implant to our brain into gustatory, olfactory functions. Even then, I don't think any tasteless tech bro are hopeless to create anything unique or beautiful.

The inside has nice lighting and both booth and chair seating to pick from and music that's not overly loud to allow work and catching up with friends. Wait time: Not a long wait time early in the morning between time of ordering and receiving your drink. If you are taking it to go there is an outdoor pick up window attached to the outside of the store for convenience and to prevent cluttering inside. Service: Friendly staff and helpful with suggestions on the menu for both drinks and food. Drinks: Ginger Matcha Latte: The strong matcha and spicy ginger flavor paired well with the sweetness of the Oat Milk creating a balanced flavor. Drink size was fair based on other matcha shops. Overall, a nice little tea shop to pick out a good quality matcha beverage, light Japanese style breakfast / brunch, or a sweet treat. Clean and quiet ambience inside with friendly staff.

You know, mainly fun things like beverages, snacks, or fruits, when I am delivering documents or my bank deposits. Said friend recently reciprocated by handing me a bag (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=24&select=Rmk-7xJHWs7RKbGP2U1zdQ) with a few items to take home. Having a drink in hand already, I refrigerated one of the gifted items before putting the other two there too. Watching my sugar intake these days, I waited until the next morning to start on the strawberry matcha latte, medium ice, half sweet (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&select=0O5eaeZuKxCM2GU2ur3cEA); this is a take on a flavor combination that is a signature one for a local boba tea company. I enjoyed this as the tea flavor was more distinct and the sweetness was dialed down. I would get this again. The other gifted items were the Hokkaido cheese tart and fresh sweet potato cheese tart (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&select=aVbAWdTtlPx0iEdMyWkNFg). I reheated them in my toaster oven a few days later as snacks. The cheese one was okay and didn't really stand out but the sweet potato one shines if you're a big fan of sweet potato. By appearance, I thought it was taro or ube but was pleasantly surprised. Whenever I dine in J Town, I often walk by this store that across from the former Isobune sushi spot in the mall. Now I know what they have and I will try other menu items next time. Thank you for my generous and thoughtful friend for giving my this 1st experience.
