Amazing cafe that hosts lots of local events. Plenty of hearty meal options like the shakshuka, which was delicious, though the iced london fog was a little watery. Plenty of seating and outlets, but no wifi. read more

Found a nice little coffee shop after a heavy lunch in the area. It was unusually warm and I was craving an iced coffee, which is a rarity for me. My buddy suggested Manny's. It been several years since I have been in the area and so much has changed. This place seems like a great daily spot for that mid-morning coffee break or a late afternoon caffeine bump when you're dozing at your desk. The staff was helpful and courteous. Coffee prices have steadily climbed since the pandemic, however this place has kept things reasonable. I am still adjusting to the tipping culture and now add that into the price of a cup of Joe. Anyway, this place is on my list whenever I am in The Mission. One pic only today. read more

The staff was unnecessarily rude, slamming his phone on the counter when I asked a question. Would not recommend.

Going to cafes in certain neighborhoods in San Francisco over the years it was a place to congregate with people with similar philosophies and ideas. It seems to also be a place with people would meet to exchange ideas especially in the area of local , state ,national, and global politics. You would even hear people with ideals about changing the system and romanticizing about revolution. These discussions were common especially in the Mission throughout the different cafes . It is the place to recruit and organize. There is one place which has turned a cafe into a forum and platform where people exchange ideas and some come to learn about others POV's. This place is located at the corner of 16th and Valencia and it's Manny's. Being born and raised a block away of where Manny's is now been established since 2017 the Mission has always been a hotbed when it comes to politics and now with integration of technology . You go inside Manny's it is cafe which doubles for some as a work office a retreat away from home and others a place to enjoy the bookstore inside Manny's. There are also alcoholic drinks available and they also serves food. I came here for the coffee and their bookstore. I got the mocha with the vanilla syrup and almond milk and it was tasty and not too sweet. I also got their croissant and it was not so flakey like some in SF. The croissant was like a hybrid of a savory pan dulce ( sweet bread) at a local Panaderia ( bakery) and a croissant which was a good thing. Whether you are a Data Scientist or a Political Scientist or a novice in SF this is a good space to check out. Come to Manny's they have food and "alcohol"they also have coffee and art on the "wall" it's a place to congregate year round Winter , Spring , Summer and "Fall" Manny's is multi dimensional space it's also a Village Square and a "Town Hall" Some stand together some in "compliance"others like to fight the system and are in "defiance "some seek community others are all about "self reliance" but Manny's is the place to relax whether your interest is data or "political science " read more

This is the most amazing spot for local activists, curiosity seekers, concerned citizens to get involved and stay involved. A chance to hear both sides of a story in civil setting. I have stumbled in to so many great conversations with a wide variety of folks, made many new friends, and helped old friends get informed. read more

I don't understand the positive reviews. I came here for dinner and nothing was good. My friends and I were so disappointed. I would not visit again, there's definitely better options in the neighborhood! read more

Every other iteration of this space has been more authentic, wasteful use of a great location.

really like the cauliflower shawarma bowl that's vegan-friendly by default! staff is always friendly, space is nice, and food and drinks come out quickly. i do really wish there was a vegan option in the pastry case and the menus and all items were labeled for allergens and vegan/vegetarian options consistently. read more

Cozy civic third space located in the mission! I really appreciate this spot for civic engagement in our city, thank you Mannys!

Pretty awful food honestly. Way overpriced for what you get. The place looked dirty when we went, which didn't inspire much confidence. Service was slow, and nothing we ordered stood out. Definitely wouldn't go back. read more

Not that great. Parking is terrible in this neighborhood. I'd go somewhere where parking is easy

On my quest for the perfect avocado toast in San Francisco I thought I'd check out Manny's. The menu showed no avocado toast until weekend brunch, but they had avocados & kindly made me avocado toast. It did not disappoint. Two slices of bread that were actually toasted! (A rarity for some reason). Next layer avocado which was spread a little thin, cucumber slices, a generous pile of greens, topped with chili oil. Delicious. Arriving at Manny's on Valencia & 16th I saw two guys In the open corner window conducting a live radio show. BFF.FM. They beckoned me & asked what I'm up to. Since I'm not microphone shy I proceeded to tell them about my quest for the perfect avocado toast in SF. They started laughing. Why? One of their topics this morning was alerting people to the annual Guacamole Contest in Bernal Heights this Saturday. Kismet. I'll definitely be there. Decor's kind of 70s with all the hanging plants & wall of books. (In a good way). Love the Kamala cardboard cutout standing proudly at the window. Manny's is familiar to me as I've attended their political meet & greets, as well as tv watch parties. In fact, they have an election count down sign on the outside wall. Their welcome statement painted on the wall: "We are a space where the community comes together to take part in civic & political life. We are a town hall, a village square, the place where anyone can meet and engage with civic leaders, elected officials, artists, activists, changemakers, and each other. Our hope is that what happens here will be the space for you to get more involved." read more

Love it here Come here all the time And they're open pretty late! Nice pastries and they have event space read more

What great vibes! Also the interior of the bathroom is so fun? They make a very scrumptious shakshuka. Would come back simply for that. I also had their chicken sandwich, and it was hearty and good but definitely gave home-cooked vibes read more

Got a sandwich to go but wish I could have stayed to enjoy this cute and eclectic cafe! With a constant stream of guests flowing in and out of Manny's I knew this was the spot! The staff were amazing at taking orders and making coffees -- wasting no time to service everyone. The bacon egg and cheese sandwich was amazing, toasty, VERY generous with the ingredients, and best of all well priced! read more

Ordered a simple hot chocolate, waited 30 minutes and had to ask them what happened to my order. Finally got my drink and no one even said sorry for the wait. Drink was pretty good and the place has nice atmosphere. Service wasn't good though and on top of it they seemed pretty rude. read more

Finally was able to come here during the day to try out their menu. I absolutely love chilaquiles and so of course I ordered that. I also got the Kamalatte, which is a toasted coconut latte. I didn't taste any coconut, but it was still a good latte. I forgot to say I wanted almond milk, but I actually ended up being fine with whole milk (I'm not totally lactose intolerant, but I do feel pain sometimes with lactose). The chilaquiles were yummy! The guajillo sauce was savory with a touch of sweetness. The chips had a decent crunch to them. I really like that it comes with black beans and that avocado is included. I've only had come here for events so spending time just on the cafe section was new. It was really quiet, with exception for the music at a perfectly reasonable volume. It's a good place to relax or study, maybe get some work done. Emphasis on the word "some." Don't just order a coffee and stay there for hours.. small businesses need the turn around. I digress as you can Google articles on that issue. What I like about the cafe space are the huge windows. They let a lot of natural light in. And I love that they fully open to feel the breeze and hear the sounds of the city. As with everything, the cost of my meal was high. It was $30, including tip. The quality of my latte and food were high, though. The topping screen starts at 20%, and I support Manny's, the wonderful staff, and their cause so I'm fine with that. But I feel like at this point, just charge a service fee for a livable wage. Though, I know some people really dislike that but tbh tipping culture is problematic. Anyway, gotta get off the soap box again.. Definitely check out Manny's. It's a great spot for food, drink, and knowledge. read more

Manny's has great vibes here as far as the coffee shop goes and the variety of foods they offer! The back lounge is dope, they had it closed off when I was there but I'm sure when it's up it'll be a good spot some shows. read more

Out of every coffee shop and business to settle down and socialize, Manny's is the most welcome to all walks of life. A place to bring the entire community together is a place to be in the same boat. It would be nice for me to turn to staff members and patrons alike to come up with interesting topics and issues so that we help each other out. Other than socializing, the food and drink the staff members make never disappoints. While the mixed couscous salad is fresh all the way, the matcha lemonade is on point! The atmosphere around me with plenty of people, zero complaints. Having a good will is what matters the most in Manny's. Definitely be back for a different order in mind. read more

Came in and ordered a tea. I was lucky enough to get there right when someone was leaving; otherwise I don't think I would've found a seat because it was pretty packed in there. I enjoyed sitting among many others who were working or talking with friends. There's a cool energy in there read more

On 2nd thought: their wine pours are really really bare minimum.. $12++ for 1/4th of a small glass. Meh. read more

My friend had a nice chat there on our way to yoga. I liked how when they say there is no sugar in the matcha there isn't any. Whole milk gives it just enough sweetness for me. The decor is lovely, though the blue chairs we were seated in probably need a reupholster. Bathroom took me aback with the pink lights and glitter. It's definitely not boring. read more

What a gem of a spot!! I needed a coworking space in the mission and Mannys was perfect. Huge space with lots of comfortable seating, quiet spaces and louder ones, free menstrual products in the bathroom, and excellent food. I ordered the shakshuka on a rainy day and I loved it. Only problem is that there's no wifi - you have to use your hotspot. They make this very clear from the moment you walk in though, there are plenty of signs. Great spot in the city!! read more

Manny's is a pillar in Mission/SF community. I come here for the Sunday community clean ups at 10. You get a complimentary brunch after and meet lots of cool folks! The business is by people and for people, just what SF should be ** read more

This is hands down one of the COOLEST food places I have ever been to (I think I just really like it when it is intertwined with a bookstore). I feel like the food was kind of pricey, but it is near/on Valencia after all. I wanted a place where I can eat and also do some reading, so this place was perfect for that ! When you first enter the shop, it looks like seating may be limited, but this place is actually quite big so if you keep walking throughout the shop, I feel like you'll manage to find more seating. I really liked the room all the way in the back where it felt like an intimiate open-mic night set-up. I think they do have similar kinds of events that happen there, but unfortunately I don't live in the city so it would be out of my way to go read more

Came here after volunteering for the Sunday trash pick up! The restaurant was very spacious and had lots of seating available. There are large windows so it's a good spot for people watching as well. We had potatoes, french toast, chicken tenders and an egg scramble. Everything was yummy! Would definitely come again if I wanted brunch in the mission. Unfortunately they don't have wifi if that's what you need. read more

Came to listen to the DNC and drink some coffee after yoga (next door at Love story) and before work at the hospital for the late shift. The vibe is always cool here, staff is always amazing and the other customers might spark an interesting conversation. This is old school style of SF. Btw coffee is great too. There is a cafe space and a "living room area" for screenings and talks and stuff like that. The owner is also very cool, kind and respectful of peoples differences. Political active in a positive way and peaceful way, full of love and hope! read more

This place has that cozy, sit down on a couch, table type of feel that I think every coffee shop should have but it's not great if you don't have wi-fi for customers. I ordered a crispy chicken sandwich for lunch along with a cold brew. The coffee was pretty strong and was caffeinated for a lot longer than I anticipated. The sandwich was great and the chicken patty was pretty crispy. The french fries were crispy too without being burnt and seasoned perfectly. read more

Such a special and civic minded space! Beautiful cozy interior with cool lamps, comfy couch and stool seating, and books/plants. I came in for an early coffee as I started my work day - the Mocha was one of the best I've had in a while (creamy, slightly bitter and slightly sweet, could taste coffee AND chocolate). Pro tip though that they don't have WiFi so come with your work downloaded ... or don't bring work at all ... Baristas / servers are kind, and reusable mugs provided if you sit there (and you can bring your own!). read more

I recently discovered Manny's and I'm so happy I did. This is a unique space that hosts all kinds of political discussion type events. Just in the short time I learned about Manny's, I've already had the chance to hear the Mayor speak, along with a gubernatorial candidate, and a family member of the President. The space is very welcoming with all kinds of couches and lamps thoughtfully placed around a small stage for round-table type discussions. I'll definitely continue to come here in the future. read more
