Went to Cheminé after a walk around Fillmore and was super impressed! The atmosphere is subdued, relaxed and comfortable. Pretty artsy and calm. The staff was very pleasant- I asked for no avocado on the beef Benedict I ordered- the staff recommended arugula, which was a nice suggestion. The Benedict was fantastic- the beef was tender and in good-portion. The hollandaise sauce was savory and sweet while the eggs were cooked perfectly. The iced americano was bold and smooth and I could tell the beans were fresh. Great experience and definitely worth the visit! read more

This small, charming, clean, and modern cafe is just a few short blocks from noisy busy Lombard and Chestnut streets. Love the art works and serenity. Friendly service. $18 Falafel Rainbow Sandwich: This is indeed a very colorful sandwich, starting with a fresh, soft, ciabatta roll, packed with warm falafel, hummus, red cabbage, cucumber, tomato, avocado, basil, Tzatziki sauce. All these wonderful fresh and classic Mediterranean flavors blend well together, making a tasty sandwich. I wish the falafel was more crispy, and more plentiful, and it felt more like $15~ sandwich considering the meatless ingredients, but I'm just not used to San Francisco prices. read more

Cute cozy cafe with tons of food, drink, and dessert options. I was surprised to see that they are open until midnight some days! Came with a friend on a Sunday and it was quite busy unexpectedly but we snagged a seat before it got too crowded. We split the baklava cheesecake, which was very creamy and rich (def share a slice). It has a nutty crust and pistachio on top, which adds a unique flavor. The other desserts looked yummy too, and their food also looks good! The seats are comfy near the front and service is minimal -- water is self serve. I saw there's a fireplace too which is cool. There was great natural lighting inside so a good spot to sit for a while and catch up with someone or read/get work done. read more

Cheminé - baklava cheesecake - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Francisco, California

This is such a good addition to the neighborhood! The pastries as well as a sandwiches have traditional with some unique twist! They are known for baklava cheesecake and for a good reason! It was 10/10 l, very unique very flavorful! I will be coming back specifically for that! Also got a pastel de nata and that was yummy. They were able to warm it up. Will be coming back to try more of their sandwiches. A friend got the turkey avocado and really enjoyed it! Lots of seating inside service was quick. The drinks also looked very interesting. read more

super cute cafe! cozy, relaxing ambiance playing french music in the background. plenty of seating, very spacious and modern, clean vibe. the staff are very nice and accommodating. they did confuse our drink and food orders but were quick and happy to respond. coffee is nothing special but does the job and smells great. all pastries are made in house, except the macarons, which are imported from France. we ordered the Mediterranean dip trio, shrimp and avocado salad, and ube cheesecake. the dip was a bit disappointing. the hummus didn't taste very fresh. the babaganoush was too salty but you can taste the eggplant. the whipped feta was the best of the three. our salad was fresh and enjoyable. the ube cheesecake was on the sweeter side but very creamy and took a hold over me. would recommend trying this cafe for the experience! cute date spot and/or working environment. read more

I think this place is maybe a 3.5/5 for food/drinks but a 5/5 for atmosphere, friendliness, and overall vibes. I stopped by here one afternoon to do some reading and it was perfect for that! There was wifi as well as a ton of seating, ranging from comfy nooks with pillows to tables with outlets. It seems to be a family run business and the woman running it mentioned that all the desserts were homemade. I tried the baklava cheesecake which was so pretty! It was pretty tasty but I didn't care for the texture of the phyllo or the rose petals. I'm being a bit picky though, and the fact that it's homemade is really impressive. I also got an iced americano which was pretty standard. A perfect cozy spot to hang out! read more

this is probably my favorite coffee shop in the Marina to work in because it has lots of light, great seating, wonderful service, and super fun drinks / small bites! I got the iced passion matcha ($8.50), which surprised me on how good the passion fruit flavor was, but it was lacking on the matcha. It almost just tasted like a passion fruit milk to me. I also got the chicken and vegetable pastry, which was heated up, and hit the spot. Would definitely recommend coming here! read more

Cheminé - Passion Matcha ($8.50) + Chicken and Vegetable Filled Phyllo Pastry ($9.15) - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Francisco, California

Visited this cafe on a Saturday morning/early afternoon. If you are looking for a place to study or read, I would recommend because it has plenty of seating. Only some tables had outlets. However, the wifi was not very strong and my friend was not able to get much work done. Overall though, the interior was really cute and I would recommend coming with friends to share a drink and chat. In terms of the drinks themselves, I would rate a 3/5 but not sure if we just ordered the wrong things. The coconut matcha tasted diluted and the matcha flavor was not very strong. Same with the Smores coffee, the coffee itself tasted very diluted and I barely tasted the flavor of the drink. The drinks were also pricey (around $9 each). read more

Oh gosh, I wanted to gatekeep this place after stumbling upon it after a workout class that got cancelled, but it'd truly be a crime... Food: 5/5 their California salad is to die for! - Tender, well spiced chicken, perfect balance of corn and chicken to balance out greens without dressing that is too overpowering. Had to come back two days later...Hope to try peach and burrata salad next time - caprese Benedict: yummy but smaller portion size. Served on avo toast. I normally hate Benedict because it's too heavy but was convinced to try a bite and to my surprise, I did not find the sauce and yolk combo to be overpowering at all! - drinks: we ordered hot matcha latte (okay quality, on slower days there's cute latte art) and cardamom latte -pastries: I've tried the baklava cheese cake (has edible flowers on top and warning -- it's RICH so I'd recommend sharing ), apple turnover? (INSANE!!!! My favorite for sure. Must get it slightly heated! Natural flavor of the apple shows through without too much sugar and combines with the light cream and flaky yet chewy pastry underneath for a perfect bite every time), Portuguese egg tart (I'd recommend getting with jam on top. It's not too sweet which is great, definitely tastes more "Portuguese" than Chinese. crust is okay but unfortunately my standard is Bakehouse in Hong Kong now in terms of flakiness...), yuzu macaron, and pistachio macaron Ambiance: 5/5. Clearly a family owned business. Soooo sweet! On weekdays service can be a bit slower as everything is made to order but you can truly feel the love that goes into every dish, the thought behind every corner of seating in the interior. When inside the cafe I genuinely feel like I'm abroad/detached from world around me. Good for a solo date, date with partner, or small group of friends $$: medium in terms of affordability. Typical sf cafe in the marina prices. read more

I've only tried the matcha, so this review doesn't take into account their food or coffee! I had heard great things about the matcha, but was sadly disappointed. I ordered a seasonal gingerbread matcha latte ($8.50) and while the gingerbread flavor was good, I couldn't taste the matcha at all. I'd go to Tadaima or Komeya if you're looking for matcha in the area. The interior is nice and cozy with many tables! Seems like a family run business which is nice. read more

Came around 12 on a Friday and they had plenty of open seats! If there's anything to try, it's the baklava cheesecake. I cannot stop thinking about it. It's quite filling but so worth it!!

My companion found Cheminé and wanted to take me since I like matcha. The cafe is so cute and makes for a nice spot to work. We arrived on a weekday. The cafe has good natural light, a decent amount of seating, WiFi, and a casual vibe. I saw lots of people working here. There's a good amount of indoor seating as well as some tables outside. Dogs are allowed inside! Ordering is simple: read the menu, examine the pastry display, place your order, and pay. Service was efficient! The companion got their Pumpkin Matcha, and I got a Passion Matcha with Oat Milk. They were out of soy. I chose this because I've never seen passionfruit offered with matcha. It was sweet yet tart--barely any matcha flavor, leaning more towards the milky side. The price is quite expensive, and it came to over $10 for the drink. I wasn't impressed. I did like my companion more. If you're looking for high-quality matcha, I'd probably skip this place. Cheminé is a cute cafe with food and drinks in the Marina. I'd come back to work but would order something else. Parking is street only. read more

the drinks we got looked way better than they tasted. we got both the tiramisu matcha latte ($9.50) and the tiramisu latte ($9) and firstly, both were too milky. I like my matcha and espresso strong in my lattes and could not taste a hint of matcha and only a hint of espresso respectively. secondly, the mascarpone was rock solid and difficult to mix into the drinks. it eventually melted but separated into little milk solids. bonus points for calm vibes for working or reading, we sat at a table right by the patio but we also saw a rat scurrying outside on the patio read more

What a wonderful fine. The place is very comfortable and sunny area in the back. Pastries are lovely as well as tasty. Nice options for breakfast and I got a avocado egg Benedict which was perfect which came on a lovely slice of bread. Perfect cooked eggs. Coffee was strong and my cappuccino was made right, not too much milk. Other options like a Turkish cardamom coffee was delightful. Many other options available for lunch as well. Definitely my new go to place. read more

Came here with some of my colleagues for a quick catch up and coffee pick me up. A friend recommended the cafe for its desserts, and it didn't dissapoint. The cafe was clean and had a very relaxing vibe, especially in the back. The staff were friendly and attentive as soon as we walked in. Never felt rushed, which I really appreciated. The coffee wasn't bad either and it is better than your average cafe. My favorite treat so far is the Baklava cheesecake, and I definitely would get this everytime I come visit. They also serve savory options like sandwiches, toasts, and salads. read more

I've been saying that they need more larger cafe and coffee shops in this area and voila! Very friendly staff and definitely has more of a home-y feeling than anything commercial.

A new, and very much welcomed, gem of a cafe in the Marina! A fantastic spot to get some work done or catch up with a friend. Cheminé has a fun variety of a menu, including coffee and teas, smoothies, sandwiches, and Mediterranean treats, such as baklava cheesecake. They seem to have a lot of thoughtfully sourced ingredients. I had a delicious iced matcha latte. Next time I'd ask for a little less milk, but it was enjoyable. The owner was so kind, personable, and had contagious excitement about his work. You can tell it is a down to earth family owned place. There is ample seating and outlets, which is hard to find these days. They also have a patio for outdoor seating. I will definitely be back to get some work done here, or perhaps catch their upcoming wine nights! read more

Chemine is one of those spots that instantly feels personal. It's family-owned, and you can taste the care in everything they serve. My wife and I came in for dessert and went with the baklava cheesecake and a tiramisu latte. The cheesecake is hand-made by the mom, and it's so delicious and unique. Rich and creamy with that nutty, honeyed baklava layer adding crunch and depth. Brought half of it home and it might've tasted even better the next day! The tiramisu latte was just as unique of a sweet treat, with a huge dollop of mascarpone on top. Beyond the food, the owners are genuinely kind and welcoming. They take time to chat, share a little about what they're making, and make you feel welcome in a way you don't get everywhere in SF. I'll be coming back for another tiramisu latte soon! read more

And there are toasts, salads and sandwiches for something more substantial. On top of that the employees are very friendly. Enjoy. read more

Matcha latte (hot): 2/5 It was ok but probably wouldn't get it again. It was super bitter and had an unexpected floral aftertaste. Tiramisu matcha latte (iced): 2/5 Again, would not get again. The cream from the "tiramisu" has too strong of a presence aka heavy cream/buttery taste, which isn't too pleasant. There were literal bits of butter showing up in the drink.. Ambiance: suuper cozy, lots and lots of seating, free wifi. There's spots for intimate chats and studying alone or with friends! Service: Relatively fast. Overall: Would definitely return to try another non-matcha drink. read more

First time here and I ordered the passion matcha latte. It was pretty sweet, and the matcha and passion fruit didn't pair well. The matcha quality also wasn't great. The drink was more than $10, which felt pricey for what it was. We didn't try the food, but it was also expensive. The inside is very cute with lots of seating, making it a nice place to sit and work. If I go back, I'd try their coffee. read more

Backstory: We came across this on a reel and wanted to try this place out. Therefore we ordered on uber eats due to being near by but toddler wasn't awake. Review: we ordered 5 drinks Tiramisu matcha latte- ordered iced but came hot. Okay that's fine I'll try it hot but as we drank it, it was literally just watery with no flavor profile and had this oil like feel in my mouth as an aftertaste. Not creamy as stated and did not taste tiramisu at all. It came with a hard rock lady finger. Matcha espresso fusion- BURNT. I just am baffled at what we tasted. It was so awful that I seriously passed this drink around to make sure it wasn't just my taste buds today. Everyone absolutely disliked this the most out of all the drinks. Limonade- it was water with squirts of lemon juice. I don't know it had less lemons than lemon water. Peach iced tea- a cup of water and think about peaches getting punched so you can get the fibers or little tiny pieces of peaches grounded up tossed into your drink for a flavor profile. Shake it in a cup and there's your drink. Mango magic- same example of the peach but replace with mango. I was so excited to try Chemine for the first time and was disappointed with how it tasted. All 5 drinks were not it and I really hope it was an off day as I'm seeing reviews from others saying the presentation was nicer than the taste. BUT for it to be around $10 a drink, I did have high expectations and it definitely was upsetting with how it turned out because my family and I really wanted to enjoy it but all drinks were inedible.. read more

This place is my favorite cafe nearby! It is so cozy and has a lot of seating with outlets everywhere. Great cafe to chat, work from or cozy up and read a book. They have a ton of yummy drinks and food. With a lot of the desserts being homemade. This is a family owned cafe, and you can tell they pour their heart into their service. Always welcoming and happy. There is seating indoor and outdoor. I wish they had some more light bites or items on their menu that could be priced cheaper like maybe plain bagels? Their food is great but most toasts/lunch items are starting at $13+ so it can add up quickly if you're here for a bite, drink and a treat. But overall, great place and will continue to come back time and time again! read more

Took a short walk up the street from my hotel to this adorable café that is relatively new to the neighborhood. I learned that their name Cheminé means fireplace and they have one here! My first impression was positive as their gorgeous bright atmosphere and cozy indoor and outdoor seating options makes you want to sit down and relax. Came for the coffee, stayed for the vibes. I ordered their signature Tiramisu Iced coffee that comes with a delicious Ladyfinger for dipping. Ordered a traditional Turkish expresso, black of course, for my brother and two savory pastries . One had bacon and Parmesan and the other chicken and veggies. Both were quite good and the owner warmed them up for me . I was going to take everything to-go but enjoyed my conversation with the barista and owner (from Turkey) so much that I stayed, enjoyed my breakfast and wrote this review. They have a lovely outdoor garden space that will be opening soon! 10/10 recommend. read more

A super cute, spacious spot to get some work done, and grab an afternoon pick me up. They had some great hot tea options. I got their mint & lavender tea and it was served in the cutest glass tea pot. Got like 4 servings out of it! Seems like a family owned business, the wife who took my order was very kind!

I was looking for a place to grab coffee with a friend on a Saturday morning and found this spot! It's right on Fillmore and they have a ton of seating which can be hard to find in a cafe. They have a variety of drinks and pastries. I got the iced cardamom latte and it was just okay. It was kind of grainy and did not have too much flavor. It did come in a cute cup though.
