    Cappuccino

    This is a lovely spot to have a coffee and a pastry in the sun ( or inside ) We had a new puppy with us yesterday and today; outside rewarding her with treats for sitting and enjoying the coffee (our treat) was the order of the day for us. They are busy with take out for people coming to and from BART or people parking briefly out front to collect their coffees or breakfasts.

    Breakfast bagel sandwich & chai latte
    Jenny O.

    I've been treating myself to breakfast sandwiches these past few months sometimes. Cup Cafe in SF was one of the first ones I tried. Wish the bagel was a little more toasted, but loved the melted cheese. Chai latte was fine. The guy running the shop was very nice and noticeably super careful. The shop is very close to Glen Park BART so very convenient if you want to grab a quick breakfast on the way to work.

    This coffee spot is top notch! A+ I got the The Embarcadero sandwich - Turkey, provolone, lettuce, tomato with a slammin pesto aioli on a nice fresh Ciabatta. Definitely bangin! She got tomato, cucumber & cream cheese on an everything bagel. We were both delighted. Ice coffees were killer & the couple running the place were super sweet. They received a large order right before ours & they gave us each a flan for the wait, which wasn't even that long. Stoked to have this spot in the neighborhood & cant wait to come back & support. These guys rule!

    Another five stars coffee place. Like always How would that be! Let's try! It's on south SF somewhere looks like laundromat Had to park one block away. The coffee was cheap I think. I tried the Iced coffee it was very sour and tasted like Italian vibe ish. Somewhat blue bottle ish. Cold brew was not bitter or a little plain but strong. I liked that. There were a lot of coffee shops down the streets. Is this one particularly surviving for some reson? I want to try their speciality next time. Perhaps some lattee

    Quick take: Cutest little cafe This is one of the cutest little cafes. The couple who works here are the friendliest people. Greeted by the most hospitable smiles. I ordered a vanilla latte, plain bagel with cream cheese, and a Sunset sandwich to go. There are 3 window seat tables but it is currently occupied. I see a guy playing the guitar outside. Great Saturday morning vibes. The service here is great. I will definitely be back. :) Super close to the BART station.

    The Sunset and latte

    Such a cute little cafe run by a friendly couple. We recently moved into this area and I decided to give this place a try for my lunch. I went around noon and it was pretty quiet around that time. I was greeted very pleasantly by the owner. I ordered a latte and the sunset sandwich. He immediately made a latte for me and handed it over so I can enjoy it while I wait for my sandwich. It was amazing to see the couple work so diligently and with such enthusiasm. The latte was just perfect and I loved the sandwich. I think I found my lunch spot in this town! Amazing place! Also, the sandwich is so huge for such a reasonable price which was such a pleasant surprise in the otherwise expensive bay area!

    There was no kitchen, only a toaster and a microwave. For the bacon egg and cheese, they microwaved the egg in a plastic cup.

A true hidden gem in the city…read more Prices are slightly higher than average, but the sandwiches are hefty and can feed up to 2 people. Deli is on the left upon entering. Order there and grab a bag of chips + a drink from the store to enjoy with your sandwich! No matter what sandwich you choose from their extensive menu, Dutch crunch bread is a must. I like how their Dutch crunch has the perfect amount of crunch (satisfying, while not being too crunchy to the point where the roof of your mouth is scraped up). It's also not overly sweet compared to other Dutch crunch breads I've tried. I usually get either the Cali Club with provolone or the Oxbridge Special (formerly known as 2. Atomic 47 on their old menu; also isn't listed on their current menu board but it's listed on their GrubHub). The Cali Club is almost like an elevated BLTA. Perfect if you want a sandwich that's both hearty and fresh. The Oxbridge Special is mildly spicy and the roast beef in it is savory and juicy. Definitely come by if you're ever in the area!

The sandwich is hearty enough to be shared between two people and the price is decent for what you get! No seating inside since it's a grocery store but we were able to eat it during our walk just fine. The service is very friendly and there wasn't too long of a wait after we ordered.

I had passed by it countless times on my bike ride to work without giving it a second thought -- until a co-worker suggested we stop in for lunch. That single visit changed everything. What I found was not just convenience, but quality. The menu was packed with deli classics, and the vibe was laid-back and welcoming, full of regulars who clearly knew this was the spot. I went with the Hot Pastrami Sandwich, and I still think about that first bite. Made with Boar's Head Top Round Pastrami -- hand-trimmed, rich, and smoky -- it was layered generously and coated with spices that hit all the right notes. The meat had that perfect deli texture, tender yet hearty.. They clearly take pride in what they serve, and it shows in every bite. It wasn't overloaded or sloppy -- just expertly made and full of flavor, the kind of sandwich that makes you slow down and savor it. What makes New College Hill Market even more special is the atmosphere. It's that kind of neighborhood shop where the cashier greets regulars by name, and even if you're new, you feel like you belong. Whether you're grabbing a quick lunch or discovering it for the first time, it's the kind of place that leaves an impression. For me, it's become a top lunch destination in the city -- unassuming, affordable, and blasting in flavors!

This grocery/convenience store has your typical products you would see, like liquor, sodas, snacks, i.e., candy, chips, ice cream, but they even sell things like shampoo, cold/flu meds and lottery tickets! The store may have what you need so you won't have to run to Target, Walgreens or CVS. They don't have music or a tv in the background; it's quiet and peaceful. We noticed this because it was Super Bowl Sunday and they don't have a tv, so we had to go online to check the score. *** OUR PICKS*** RIB EYE STEAK SANDWICH W/SWISS CHEESE ON DUTCH CRUNCH ~ While ordering this, I told myself, this is gonna be GREAT! I couldn't wait to sink my teeth into this sandwich! But when I took a bite, all I could taste was salt?! I'm not sure if the steak was over seasoned or the Swiss cheese made it salty from being cooked, but I've never had that happen when making a sandwich at home. Since there's no place to eat it at the store, we took it home and tried adding more lettuce and avocado to offset the saltiness, but even that didn't help. By the end of the day, I couldn't get my ring off my finger! It was swollen from the amount of salt in the sandwich because that's the only thing I ate. I drank lots of water, but I became bloated. Next time, I'll nix the cheese and order another kind of sandwich and hopefully have a better experience. 3/5 ROAST BEEF & PASTRAMI W/PROVOLONE CHEESE ON DUTCH CRUNCH ~ this was better than the steak sandwich. My guy had this one. It was salty, but it didn't overpower my tastebuds or the sandwich. I only took a bite to try. 4/5 While jalapeño peppers and pepperoncini are sour, spicy and salty, the meat shouldn't be overwhelmingly salty too then the whole sandwich wouldn't be pleasant to eat. There needs to be something bland to balance it. Now in this steak sandwich, I didn't even add jalapeños or pepperoncini. I only had pickles, onions, lettuce, tomatoes. Yet the salt cut through it all and hit me. I believe someone got overzealous with the salt shaker not realizing it was too much. Of course, the customer finds out after taking a bite! Though I think there should be some quality control in making sure it's done right. Maybe taste testing should be a thing. We may come around again and give them another shot. We really enjoyed it the first time and we were hoping for a repeat, but disappointingly, it didn't go as planned.
