    Coffee And The Vegetable Sandwich
    Steve A.

    Got lunch at this cool cafe. It has a good location in the Civic Center neighborhood. Planet Cafe is only open for breakfast and lunch on the weekdays. Limited hours but certainly not on flavor. The menu is mostly typical cafe fare such as sandwiches. At lunch is a good time to go here. It's only open for breakfast and lunch. The menu is pretty simple. Has the basics of a deli. It's about $11 for a sandwich. Each of us got one of the vegetarian choices. I had the Vegetable Sandwich. This came with avocados, cucumbers, hummus, lettuce, red onions, and tomatoes. Also they can make and deliver kids' lunches. This is nice of them to be sure with already having there being a limited amount of food they can make. Basic looking cafe. It's only a few tables inside. This is a good place for takeout, but you still have enough room to eat inside, and there's the one sandwich option that's okay for vegetarians.

    Planet sweet crepe: banana, strawberries, drizzled with Nutella.

    Small place--it fit our family of 5 at the front table comfortably--order at the counter type of place. Feels off the beaten path. Parking was available and proved to be a good place for a quick breakfast for both sweet and savory crepes. Ambiance--definitely felt the throw back to France vibe, small cafe owned and run immigrants.

    Cute little cafe with a solid breakfast bagel. They seem to be known for their crepes so worth trying next time!

    Planet Cafe looks like another moderate mom and pop shop that serves coffee. I decided to have a smoothie for $5. It had pineapple and blueberry. It was good to try. I noticed they serve Ethiopian food. It's not a fancy place, but interesting for Ethiopian. This is in Hayes Valley.

    Banana Nutella Crepe

    Very friendly and hospitable owner. Delicious crepes and good coffee! Planet Cafe is a small cafe, but the food is outstanding. I will return.

    The Smoked Salmon Salad to go.
    L J.

    The salmon salad to go. The bread was delicious, well buttered and toasted perfectly. The salmon was fresh and also delicious. I'll be doing this for lunch many more times.

    FINALLY tried B Patisserie and it did not disappoint! Came on Sunday after Mass at around 1 pm to…read morefind it still popping with a line out the door. Even so, they were refreshing that pastry case so that I was not without options. So many amazing-looking things, so I got 3 things just for myself: Chocolate Banana Almond Croissant $5.25: The classic, I had to try. And it was so good!! I thought it might be too rich, but I actually found it to be quite balanced. I loved the fresh mashed banana/banana purée inside, and it went really well with the chocolate. I didn't get a ton of almond flavor comparatively, but I appreciated the coating on the top for a heartier crunch in addition to the croissant flakiness. Like everyone else, I would definitely recommend this one! Passionfruit Bostock $4.25: The staff person helping me told me this was a good option, so I was happy about that. I would agree! It has a beautiful crisp on the outside and a moist crumb inside. The passionfruit flavor was really nice and not too strong. I believe they rotate different flavors of this one, so I'd definitely want to try more. Bostocks on the whole are underrated, and I think they have just the loveliest texture. All-in-One Cake: This is so creative. I was going to stop at the above two pastries, but when the staff person said that this cake was quite literally made up of all the other cakes seen in the case, I was already sold. How cool and creative and reduce-reuse-recycle is that!!!?? I love! And it was such a fun eat! I love how they added crust at the bottom and a gorgeous chocolate layer on top to tie everything together. And every bite was a little different: some fruity, some nutty, some crunchier. Super cool. I was able to nab a table and work a little bit, which was nice. It's a good vibe inside with a little hustle and bustle, but still cozy overall. I'll be back!

    Liked this place a lot, also appreciated the extreme variety of things available (especially…read morecompared to some of my other favorite bakeries like Arsicault). Definitely go early to get everything fresh, but you probably won't run into a line if you don't. Highlight of the menu was absolutely the kouign amann - it was so buttery and flaky with this caramelized sticky sweet inside, rivaled in my eyes only by the Arsicault one. We also got the seasonal one (raspberry and guava) which was also really good. The passion fruit bostock was also interesting with this spongy cakey texture with an almond topping. The banana chocolate almond croissant was another favorite of mine, it's also such a unique item and definitely a must order. We sat inside at a table so we could eat some of the pastries right away which I highly recommend - everything lost freshness after a few hours and I probably wouldn't get anything from here again with the intention of eating it later. They have a ton of cakes too, tried the chocolate mousse cake, the berry cake, and the passionfruit orange and guava cake. The chocolate mousse was my favorite and runs on the sweeter side compared to other chocolate mousse's I've had. The other two are also amazing and have a bunch of different layers. I also tried the prosciutto burrata and cherry tomato tartine - an open faced sandwich basically - which tasted good but was kind of difficult to eat, either with hands or fork and knife. Would definitely come here again both because what I tried was so good and there are so many other things there I'd want to try.

Our group came around 1pm and was able to grab the last 3 sets. Our party of 6 was able to share the 3 sets and feel relatively full.

The staff were the sweetest and combined tables together to let our party sit together. They even put a candle in the matcha tart for my birthday!

You order before you get seated when you first walk in. Def gets busy after 12! We got the hojicha latte and strawberry latte. The hojicha was very nice and nutty. It came a little too unsweetened for my liking but they have sweetened out to adjust for your liking! I would def come back to get this! 8/10! The strawberry latte on the other hand was very overpoweringly flavored of the strawberry jam :(. I felt it tasted a bit artificial and didn't really let the matcha taste come through, I would stick to-the hojicha. 4.5/10 For food we got the fish sandwich and the pork katsu sandwich. The fish sandwich was decent, the cheese was cold but the fish was nice and flaky. I wish the fish skin was a bit more crunchy but I did like the slaw and sauce on it. 6.5/10 The pork one was soooo good and juicy. The crust was super crunchy and surrounded by the soft bread was such a nice texture. There was a sweet sauce which balanced the sandwhich nicely. Would get again! 8/10 We also saw the Japanese breakfast bento which looked realllly good and the salmon with matcha broth that others ordered and would def come back to try those! TLDR; would get the pork katsu sandwhich and hojicha. Would come back to try the bento and the salmon in matcha broth!!
