I rarely see Greek style coffee or gummy bear tea so of course had to try this place! We also ordered a regular latte, a specialty latte and a womelette for pick up through DoorDash. Sometimes they have BOGO deals for certain womelette, burritos and coffee! The waffle omelette consisted of bits of tater tots, apple sausage and cheese along with a sliced piece of sourdough bread. Didn't get to eat it right away since it was to go so can't speak on how crispy it initially was. Tasted as expected and seasoned lightly though I got my iced Greek coffee with vanilla syrup hoping the syrup would not overpower the coffee taste. Luckily it didn't and I was still able to taste the bold coffee which was not bitter! I was able to try a bit of Penelope's samoas latte and it was not overwhelmingly sweet and had coconut flakes. The gummy bear tea actually had whole gummy bears in it but was not chewy anymore. The drink itself just tasted like a fruit punch with a hint of green tea read more

We were staying at the Hyatt Regency and happened to stop by Penelope's for breakfast since we were curious about this whole womelette situation they were talking about. Not a bad breakfast overall. In the family, we had a tella cream waffle, a veggie womelette, a meatlover's womelette, and a greek coffee. The people were nice, the place was cute and clean. Womelettes - I think womelettes are a cute concept but not something I would order on the regular. The veggie womelette was a exactly what you would expect it to be, a bit denser than your traditional omelette but same flavors. Penelopes tended to be light on seasoning so season to taste, but not a bad option. Tella cream waffle - Nutella and two kinds of sweet cream on a waffle. My little one was an absolute mess afterwards, inside and out. If you like sugar, this works ^_^ Greek Coffee - My personal winner. I've never had Greek coffee before and it was a lot stronger than I was expecting, which is great. Perfect for a family vacation with lots of family. Overall a cute spot to try and reasonably priced for the area. I'd come here for the coffee for sure. read more

The menu is fairly simple, waffle, panini, toast options, coffee and tea. So if you're craving any of those things - you'll surely satisfy that craving here! You order at the cash register and receive a number to place on your table. The service has always been very friendly and quick. It's a nice place to visit for a quick lunch and I feel comfortable enough in here to sit and work from my laptop. read more

Got their vegetarian egg sandwich and oat milk latte to go. The sandwich was flavorful and not overly buttery which I liked. The oat milk was perfect and was the perfect caffeine fix for a weekday morning. The service was efficient and we got our order quickly. It's a cute little coffee shop and if we had some time I would've liked to have dined there instead of getting a to-go order. read more

Cute and spacious cafe with a wide selection of coffee / tea and food. I especially love their Greek coffee on a day I'm desperate for a lot of caffeine; it's extremely strong / concentrated, similar to Turkish coffee. I'm not quite adapted to the flavor yet -- or the large number of coffee grounds at the bottom -- but it absolutely gets the job done after a long night. I haven't been all that impressed by their food selection, but I do love how friendly and efficient the staff is! It's a great spot for a quick caffeine stop before work. read more

Penelope’s Coffee and Tea - Tiny breakfast burrito - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Francisco, California

What do you do when you like the food, the people are friendly and yet they have a sign on the wall with a lower mandate listed than on the receipt? 5 stars for customer service 3.5-4 for the food and coffee 1 for the inaccurate signage I will give that a two star average. Pros: The Womelette was an interesting take on a waffle and omelette combo. The linguica was flavorful and there was a nice, crispy layer. It's not low carb due to the tater tots but it's definitely lighter than a traditional waffle and I appreciate that. The iced Greek coffee was good as well. I'm glad I asked for a copy of the receipt (shout out to the helper that mentioned the mandate). I saw a note on the wall about it so I was glad to see it was posted. However, 6% is posted and 7% is what was charged. One percent, not a big deal right? It's the same way I would feel if a lower price for an item was listed on a menu than what I was charged- unacceptable. Two options- lower the higher than average mandate the was actually charged or update your sign to reflect what you are actually charging. read more

so I usually order from Uber from here but one day I actually went in wasn't too far from my job when I was still working there but delicious egg waffles whatever you call it. I usually don't like waffles or pancakes, but the egg made it so much better. On top of that there's customizations as well. Not one thing I will say that I don't like is their toast. It's very mid. I had their breakfast burrito it was delicious. What would my recommended they shouldn't be from this place definitely try the egg waffle omelette whatever that thing is cause that's one of the best things I've had like breakfast item really memorable for me Every time I came in here it was super welcoming except one time, but I think the girl was having a really bad day and I was asking for extra ketchup and sour cream and stuff, but I was trying to make sure I was condiment up but other than that must try read more

Every time I come here even if i place an order well in advance, it always takes forever meaning 30 min and I am Late for meetings etc. They are severely understaffed and if it weren't for Starbucks leaving I would never come here. Once SPRO opens in the old Starbucks spot I will go there. This place needs to get more efficient workers or more workers in generals. Today I placed a to go order at 834 it's now 902 and I'm still waiting. With other people. Late for a meeting. And the app said it was ready 20 min ago. Awful. read more

penelope's is a pretty large cafe with plenty of seating. they offer a bunch of specialty drinks and food. we ordered their signature meat lovers womelette (waffle omelette) ($14.95)--the texture was interesting as it's a soft waffle with breakfast ingredients inside. it tasted good but I like a bit of crunch in my waffle. we also got the chicken apple sausage breakfast burrito ($9.95) which was not very special, and the penelope's samoas latte ($6.95)--even half-sweet was too sweet, and it tasted more mocha than coconuty. but overall I liked trying these unique dishes! read more

The food is decent, the wait isn't long, and the storefront has decent ambiance and is clean. However, the owners and/or managers don't seem to be the most scrupulous, at least in my experience (but I've been coming here at least twice a month ever since they opened due to office proximity). 1. The SF Health Mandate has restaurants charging customers a fee of their own discretion for the healthcare of their employees (ostensibly). Some restaurants are upfront about this charge and the amount. Penelope's not only is not upfront about this, but they also assess a higher than average fee. I haven't backed into the math, but I remember getting sticker shock many a time when my final bill came out so much higher than the subtotal of my items, plus tax, with no notice whatsoever. I'm not even sure why it's legal for restaurants to assess you a charge without telling you how much it's going to be before you order, but I can't fault Penelope's for violating the law because the law says restaurants can do pretty much whatever the heck they want with this fee. There's a difference between what is legal and what the right thing to do by your customers is, though. 2. Most recently, Penelope's engaged in a sleight of hand with shrinkflation. I'd been ordering the turkey panini for years, and it always came with a salad. Last week, I ordered the same to go--the menu and price were the same, after all--but was surprised to be missing a salad. I thought it was a mistake, so I called to ask for my salad, only to be told that the owners had decided to cut the salad from the item but had not bothered to indicate as such anywhere on the menu or the website for folks who'd been ordering this item for a long time. You can still have salad, but you must pay extra. The associate claimed inflation, which I'm confused because according to the Fed and Consumer Price Index in April and May, inflation has been lower than expected and at its lowest rate since February 2021. Nor can the restaurant blame the tariffs because I'm pretty sure my turkey, bacon and bread did not get imported from China or another tariffed country. I was willing to overlook the health mandate fee in isolation, but the kind of changes the restaurant seems to be making under the auspices of inflation that isn't happening is the last straw. There are too many other honest businesses that would have at least given notice of the change, for example, even if they did remove the salad without cutting the price. I can't be bothered to patronize a business whose owners can't be bothered to be honest with their customers. read more

Needed a caffeine pick-me-up and stopped in at Penelope's. They had a greek coffee on their menu which peaked my interest. The guy taking my order and who also made my drink was super nice and gave me his suggestions of what I should do given it was my first time trying Greek coffee. While you can choose to get it either hot or iced, he recommended it hot for my first time and let me know that it was strong. A "large" portion is an 8 oz cup with a "small" portion only half of that. I decided to get the small and he was not kidding - the drink was strong and gave me energy that lasted the rest of the day. I chose to drink it black to experience the flavors fully and I thought it was a good, strong, rich cup of coffee with some crisp notes that came through. When he gave me my cup, the guy even said I could taste it first and if I decided I didn't like it, he would make me something else. This was not needed, but great customer service! read more

Ordered breakfast Togo. Don't do it. The burrito was so dry and gross it had no flavor. Also that spicy Ranch does not go with the food at all who decided that? I asked the people working there for a few things and they literally couldn't because they didn't speak English. How do you work in customer facing roles like that? Who ever owns this place do you realize how mediocre everything is? read more

New local favorite Penelope's Coffee and Tea is a block from my office, but I had not stopped by until today when a colleague suggested we share a burrito. He had been there and knew what he wanted to order. I do not remember the name of the burrito, but it had eggs and sausage in it and came with a spicey and delicious sauce on the side. While they were preparing our order, I scanned the coffee menu and was pleasantly surprised by the variety of options. Their Brazilian Amber caught my eye, and made a mental note to return for a cup at my earliest convenience. I will let you all know what I think of Brazilian Amber, but let me tell you that the burrito was delicious!   Penelope's Coffee and Tea is a block from my office, but I had never stopped by.

A new café option in the FiDi that isn't Starbucks or Peets. Huge coffee drink menu and some made-to-order food items. Appreciate the ample seating and chill vibe. Meat Lover's Womelette: No, a womelette is not a baby wombat! It's an egg omelet cooked in a waffle iron with bacon, ham, cheese and tater tots. A creative way for a tiny little café to offer all day breakfast. I think I like this more than a regular omelet since there's a lot of more crispy surface area. Pairing with some sourdough toast was nice. Though felt like it could use a little more food since I was still a tad hungry afterwards. Tella Cream Waffle: Sometimes you just want breakfast-for-lunch and sometimes that breakfast just happens to be covered in Nutella, ice cream and whipped cream! Despite all that, it wasn't overly sweet. The thin drizzles of Nutella were just right to accent the fluffy fresh out of the waffle iron waffle. The ice cream was solidly frozen, so didn't melt all over the place. Pretty filling, so I don't know how people could eat a proper meal *and* then have this for dessert; glad it was my only dish! Penelope's Samoas: I love sweet coffee drinks and this was definitely sweet! Had a nice caramel and chocolate and coconut flavor, like the eponymous cookie. The toasted coconut shreds on top of the whipped cream was nice a touch, though it became weird texture when drinking it after they sank. Appreciate the creativity. read more

This is a cute place tucked away in the Rincon Center that I passed by many times and finally decided to stop by with a friend.

What I remember the most is how friendly and jovial the folks were in the shop were and that the tea was very nice and smooth. This is a great place to grab a quick drink and dessert to eat out on the patio chairs in the center. I would definitely come here again on another sunny day in San Francisco! read more

I've been searching for a coffee shop in my neighborhood (that isn't Philz or Blue Bottle) to spend time at on the weekends and I'm so glad I found Penelope's! The coffee shop is pretty spacious with plenty of seating. There are also a few outlets scattered throughout, so I wasn't worried about not being able to charge my laptop. There's also free wifi (ask the staff for the password). I believe they also have a bathroom, which also has a code to get in. The staff is also incredibly warm and friendly. They have a pretty extensive food and drink menu. They have a lot of coffee and iced tea options with unique flavors. I already know I'll be back to try their different iced teas during the summer. I personally got an iced Party at the Beach iced tea. It was really flavorful and refreshing, but a bit on the sweeter side. Overall, I enjoyed my drink and would definitely come back to try others. read more

TL:DR; I would die for that Lillian latte and what excellent service they have! We went for their opening day where we were all able to try one drink and one food item of choice. That latte was AMAZING--will be back next week when I'm in the office to grab that. My coworkers got the wombelette (sp??) and I got the turkey panini. They both slapped and the flavor combo was amazing. Can definitely see that egg waffle being the hot commodity here. We met the owner and he was very kind! Owned by him and his brothers. Also met the SMM, James who was very kind as well. Looking forward to being a regular here since it's close by. Cute interior! In FiDi, so street parking. read more

I ordered a work breakfast from Penelope's through EZcater delivery. This was one of the few businesses that offered more of a working breakfast with individual servings (vs a big cooked platter of eggs or something that would have been more messy). The process of ordering was very easy, the delivery was right on time (8am on a Wednesday in September). I got 8 orders each of yogurt/granola/fruit, pastries, and quiche. Cost was $14 for the food, $213 total with tax/tip/fees. Yogurt - 3.5 stars, fine. Pastries - 2.5 stars, these were quite dry. Quiche - 4 stars, nicely made with a buttery crust, but it arrived cold. 10 minutes at 300F in the toaster oven and it was perfect. read more
