    Visited a few times. Each time trying a few different items. Sandwiches are very good and we also enjoyed the drinks. The space inside is pleasant with a mural portraying a colorful countryside relaxing vibe. I think this is the similar mural to the one located on Clement. Great place for eating lunch while reading a book, meeting friends, or have causal lunch/coffee. I especially like their egg salad sandwich and the BLT sandwich. My Husband likes the pastrami and the roast beef. What's great is that they have Sriracha on the side for you to add more spice if you like. Clean, nice and efficient service. Inside sitting only. Located on Geary and 17th Ave.

    Everything breakfast bagel and black coffee

    Not a long wait and they are always so nice. Classic everything breakfast bagel was really good. Nice little spot to get some work done there's plenty of space in there.

    I had my coffee break here with a piece of carrot cake. Nice cafe they have some music playing in the background. Staff are great this is a good place for a coffee plus they have a full menu of meals. Note that cards can only be used for payment for $10 or more.

    Thanks for workers for good tea and let me charge the phone. It was really nice after 6 hours walk in SF

    Decent little spot for a quick bagel and coffee. Nothing fancy, but they had a lot of options and a lot of seating. Only downside is the bathroom was out of commission.

    Yum baked goods

    Im sorry about the break-ins. This cafe has been in this neighbor for a while. I've never gone in till now. I never knew it had everything. Smoothies, sandwiches, coffee (of course), salads, traditional baked goods like lemon and raspberry squares. Unbelievable how much they offer. I was torn between a sandwich or salad. I let their staff pick. Royal salad won. A big scoop of tuna with dotted capers, crunchy fresh romaine, crunchy bell peppers, a sliced hard boiled egg, the freshest sliced avocado, sliced grape tomatoes and homemade balsamic dressing. Perfect salad. So delicious. This is the California salad in one big to-go container with utensils and napkins. Take this on a picnic and to the ocean. Some customers just chill in there. I need to learn the zen of chill in a cafe.

    Egg salad sandwich with rye bread and black coffee with almond milk.

    They have great wifi- came here to take zoom classes. Their sandwiches are really yummy. I've tried a lot of their sandwiches and it never disappoints. My favorite one is the egg salad sandwich. Always super fresh ingredients and I love how they add a lot of fresh veggies. I feel like they also make the egg salad out of scratch- I see them peel eggs so the food is super fresh!! Highly recommend. (I got the egg salad sandwich with rye bread and black coffee with almond milk.

    A cute coffee sandwich shop in the Richmond. Plenty of seating to do some work. Plenty of coffee/espresso options and teas. Nice spot to get a quick bite as they have a decent selection of sandwiches. Prices are reasonable and the service was fast. Staff were kind and welcoming. Would definitely come back

    Bagel Lox (no tomatoes & capers)

    Cute little coffee shop with great bagels! I dropped by in the morning and grabbed a latte and lox bagel before sitting down to do some homework. The lox bagel was awesome. It comes with cucumbers, tomatoes, onions, and capers. Bagel was perfectly toasted and the veggies were fresh. Perfect way to start my day :) I got a white mocha and it was decent. I asked for it less sweet and it was perfect. There is Wi-Fi so definitely drop by to do some work and grab some yummy food and drink.

    This is my favorite coffee place to go for a quick bite. The sandwiches aren't the best as compared to Lou's sandwich but for $7-$9 range, they're decent. I enjoy this spot because it doesn't get too busy and they are really friendly and efficient. Whenever I have a lot like my water and lunch in my hand, they notice and make it easy for me like put my food in a bag and tie it up. They also know me by now and are familiar with my usual order. When I went on vacation and came back, the guy said "hey haven't seen you in a while" so it feels nice to be remembered there.

    The food is good but not a friendly place. No greetings. I think it would makes a difference of people want to hang around.

I come to NEMS for lab work a lot and every time after I fasted, I come here for the rescue: Blueberry muffins, blueberry parfait and their latte with oatmilk is also amazing. The only draw back is they have a ton of loyal customers who are elderly and super loud, speaking in their native village language for extended periods. So if your head is exploding and needs a moment of tranquility, this isn't exactly for you. But if you want a vibrant energy with lots of odd mixture, the best coffees and lovely, heated pastries with at least 10 different varieties, then this place is unbeatable! Haha

Love seeing the roaster and beans being roasted. Ordered a latte and it was piping hot, unfortunately way too hot to drink, so be careful. Once cooled down, the coffee was good, medium almost dark roast. Matcha was okay, had good flavor. The baked good is from a starter bakery which is from Berkeley/Oakland area. The baked good were delicious, so wish it can be heated up. Overall, a solid option for well priced coffee that roasts in house beans, but do need to watch milk temperature so that it is not too hot to drink.

    Very good cakes. My friend bought 4 pieces and shared them at dinner and they were all really good…read more I hope this review helps you better make decisions on selecting what flavors / types of cakes you wanna get. Early grey crepe cake- if you like earl grey tea and crepe cake this would be a strong contestant. The tea flavor was immense and I liked how the layered cream was airy and a bit foamy that makes the earl grey cream the main character of the cake. Passion fruit - really good!! The passion fruit flavor was deep and strong with real seeds in the cream. It has a very slight hint of tangy and a very well done flavor profile! Sesame basque - if you like a creamy basque cheesecake and sesame then this would be wonderful. For me, basque cheesecake usually isn't my go-to as I like something more light and airy, but the black sesame was very rich and tastes almost a bit savory. Flavor profile is a bit neutral and neither too sweet or savory. Pandan sponge cakes- pandan flavor stands out and I love how they use coconut flesh in between the layers. It's pretty creative! There's texture (soft pandan sponge cake + crunchy fresh coconut ) in this cake which is interesting, but when you cut the cake it might fall apart. I would say this cake plays more with texture and creativity and less on the perfecting the taste. Don't get me wrong it's still good! Not sure about service but my friend said she interrogated the staff so that she could select the best cakes for us :) Will Def be back !

    This is a great place for sliced cakes, especially if you like Asian inspired flavors. They have a…read morereally nice variety of mille crepe cakes and other desserts, with flavors like pandan, matcha, ube, taro and more. I love that you can get individual slices instead of committing to a whole cake, which makes it so easy to try several flavors in one visit. The cakes are really pretty and have so many thin layers that each bite feels light and creamy. This is perfect if you enjoy lighter cakes. I think the Asian flavors are what make Sweet Glory stand out from a lot of other cake spots in the city. There are plenty of familiar flavors, but also combinations that you don't see anywhere else. The space is also surprisingly spacious, with plenty of indoor seating and a cute patio in the back. It's a nice place to sit down with a few slices and take your time. Great dessert spot if you want to try a few different cakes in one visit. The fact that you can order by the slice makes it especially easy to explore the menu without having to choose just one.
