I went to Cafe Suspiro and had their popular pour over (Unfortunately, I forgot the exact bean type) and the coffee was solid. Right amount of aroma, rich taste with a hint of fruitiness. The store is lovely covered in books, records, and some crochet. The baristas are equally lovely and kind. I had a relaxing time sitting out facing the street, next to bunch of box full of vinyl for people to take. It's a perfect and real local coffee shop! read more

Cafe Suspiro - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Francisco, California

The coffee here is so good! Rare to find such balanced well roasted coffee that is conscious but not overly fruity or light (which I call sour). Great, normal priced pour over. Fun little hole in the wall spot, records, books, friendly comfortable unpretentious staff. read more

Really cute cafe! I tried the Mexican mocha and one of the cheese pastries. The mocha was delicious and the pastry was also great. The store has some vinyls, books (with recommendations), and random knick knacks - I found it fun to look through while waiting for my coffee. read more

Such a cozy little space in Soma! There is a small selection of books including locally printed material and zines, as well as records you can browse while waiting for your drink. I had a horchata latte which I was thrilled to see uses real horchata instead of a flavored syrup. I could tell from the cinnamon/rice concoction that settled at the bottom of my cup. Delicious, almost nutty, and not at all too sweet! They have one dining table/bench outside but aside from that this compact store is great for to-go orders. read more

OMG. Loved everything about this too hip cafe. Good coffee. Loved the vibe. Wish it had been open earlier in day. Really nice barista. They bake all their goods in house and can't wait to try some. read more

Almond croissant with my coffee hits pretty good, I usually don't get croissants but the one they have is pretty damn good 7/10 only because he's a Baltimore fan Jkk 100/10 read more

Really friendly staff and very cool place aesthetically. + consistently great coffee!

Came by for coffee the other day after having lunch in the area. The coffee shop seems to be a repurposed garage and record shop. There are a few patio tables/bars in front of the coffee bar. Ordered a latte and it was tasty. Smooth espresso and milk temperature was perfect. There was also plenty of foam too! Had a chocolate croissant as a side and it was decent. ~$9.5 for a coffee and pastry! read more

What a great coffee shop! I had to meet a friend who has an art studio abive this coffee shop. I stopped in and what a great surprise. Coffee is fantastic and there are marvelous pastries to be had. And service is friendly and professional. What a great jewel for this neighborhood. read more

Delicious coffee. Warm, inviting atmosphere. Knowledgeable and friendly staff. Who doesn't like good tunes and tasty coffee?

Absolute gem. It's tucked away and has a pretty small storefront, so very easy to miss, but you should definitely come by and give it a try! I got their horchata latte, and it was fantastic. The coffee itself had great balance to it, and the milk to coffee ratio was good too. The flavoring was amazing; not too sweet at all, but just a very soothing creaminess that was wonderful on a colder day. The interior is also super cool; lots of records, their own beans for puchase, and a bit of seating outside. Would highly highly recommend, and I will certainly be back myself! read more

Lovely small coffee shop. Very easy to miss since it's a little venue. I ordered their mocha horchata and it was delicious. They even offered me a sample biscoff and it went perfectly well with the mocha. I hope to come back again and maybe stay and finish the drink outside their small patio. read more

Went there today and had a Mexican mocha and it was a nice small place that is also a record and book shop. I recommend this gem.

Love them! Love the local records, coffee, pastries and amazingly nice owner! Fantastic!

I finally made it in today after hearing rave review from people in my inner circle with great taste in all things, especially coffee. We love supporting a local business, especially one spinning (and selling) vinyl! I had my go-to almond milk cappuccino and had a taste of my partner's warmly spiced Mexican mocha. I love the vibes as much as I love the coffee read more

Super cute coffee chop that is Records themed in Soma. I got the Eddie's Horchata latte and my friend got the Mexican mocha. The Barista was super friendly and was very helpful with the questions I had. It was fun to browse through their record collection while we waited for our drinks to be made. Their pain au chocolate had the perfect level of melted chocolate! read more

This place is an absolute Gem of a find. Please try this. You will never want anything else (for better or worse). We bought espresso beans, Raul's iced Mexican mocha (which I day dream about often), and some pastries (*chef's kiss*). The espresso beans produced amazing crema during the brewing process and the taste is unparalleled (I need to re-up). Hands down, must try!! read more

Small coffee shop that sells a very decent Americano and cookie. The owner was really caring about his products and was happy to converse with his customers. There was a small area outside to drink and watch the world go by. The chocolate cookie was fresh from the little oven that the shop had. Very Enjoyable visit. read more

One of the best coffees in Soma - Raul is passionate about the coffee he puts out in the world. Great ambiance with a great collection of records and the record player creating an amazing vibe and ambiance. The beans are really good too, we use that for the coffee machine at the office. read more

The first time I tasted one of their horchata lattes I almost threw it in the ground because it was so delicious!! This place rules and the new owner Raul and his staff are super friendly. Total neighborhood must if you want a quality cup of coffee and a positive experience. I hear they will be selling tecords and books soon and if the music coming out of this place is any indication of what is to come, I'm pretty stoked read more

Absolutely rude barista, pretended he didn't know me from a week before when we had a conversation. That weird kind of customer service that San Franciscan's try to embody in their miserable jobs. The place is very faux elite, and for the beautiful & rich - so don't go in there if you are a nobody. Cause nobody knows you when your down and out. Bad vibes all around. Never going back again. read more

Not only is Cafe Suspiro my new favorite place for grabbing coffee before work, but it's also the only record shop in SOMA! The owner, Raul, is so friendly and was the first barista hired 13 yrs ago when the place was Cafe Vega. A musician at heart, he bought the place last year and started selling music-related books and records. The coffee is made w/beans from SF-based Cento Coffee and the pastries are baked in house. read more
