The barista looked very grumpy but when I asked him if he baked the pasties in the back, he said, yes with his little easy bake oven and tiny light bulb....

DO NOT PAY FOR DELIVERY…read more We paid extra to have our order delivered to our hotel and used the restaurant's order-ahead option. We scheduled the delivery for 9:20 a.m., but by 8:40 a.m. the app showed it had already been delivered. The problem? There was no food at our hotel room. I tried contacting the delivery driver by text, but never received a response. It was incredibly frustrating, especially after leaving a generous tip. We later found out the driver had left the food at the hotel but never told the front desk which room it was for, even though they had all of the delivery information. As a result, our food just sat there until we eventually had to go down and get it ourselves. In the end, I paid for a delivery service that I never actually received. Instead of enjoying the convenience we paid for, we had to track down our own order. Based on this experience, I would not recommend paying for delivery. If you're ordering from this restaurant, save your money and pick it up yourself. I paid for a service, but I did not receive what I paid for. Then to make it worse the breakfast sandwich was just OK. Nothing to write home to mom about. To say the least we will not be ordering her again and would not recommend this restaurant.

Cozy, upscale cafe located in the vibrant Russian Hill neighborhood…read more I went on a Monday afternoon and there was a great crowd there. Lively customers and staff, good vibes! There was a lot of natural light in the coffee shop, definitely a visually-appealing, 'aesthetic' place. I got an iced red tea and it was delicious. The tea was botanical, smooth and fragrant. Amazing experience! Excited to come back and try the coffee and pastries, which looked super fresh.

It seems like there's also an upstairs but did not get the chance to check it out. I got an iced latte with their almond macadamia milk, and they're also so nice to do complimentary cold brew! So we got an extra drink for free. Trying the iced latte, it was pretty disappointing lol. I thought it would be similar to like a Hawaiian style latte with macadamia milk, but it was a lot lighter than I thought. It was definitely very nutty, but it also just tasted like water down latte. Honestly not much going on with the drink, but it does taste lighter in general. Crazy have to pay $1.50 more to add on this milk. Overall, its alright. I do like the natural lighting coming into the shop, but nothing too special.

Cute spot for Indonesian inspired drinks. Been here a few times to study. They have small circular…read moretables extending from a bench (they arent big enough to fit a laptop, so if you have a whole spread with books and notes, probably not the best spot) and some high countertop spaces. They offer free wifi. I tried the pandan matcha. If you like pandan, would recommend trying it. It's not too sweet, but the pandan flavor overpowers the taste of the matcha. Also tried the kopi ginger. The ginger adds a little kick to the coffee, but its not too bitter since there is palm sugar added to the coffee. I asked to reduce the sugar and they were able to do so. Staff is super friendly and willing to provide recommendations if you have a hard time deciding. Will be coming back to this place to try the other drinks and food options.

Gee, I didn't know there was an Indonesian coffee spot in the city. I think it might be the only…read moreone in the city, though there's apparently one in the Pacific Film Archive over in Berkeley (Kopi). Located at Lombard near Van Ness, this particular spot has been around a few years and looked fully occupied by regulars with their laptops. I happened by on a weekday afternoon, and it was percolating. I was one of those lost-looking customers who entered the premises and had no idea what to order when he got to the register. The smiling server realized I was confused and pointed to the signature menu on the wall. I thought I should start basic and order the $7.25 Iced Kopi Pandan, a tantalizing mix of dark single-origin espresso, housemade pandan syrup, and almond milk over ice (Photo 8). It was delicious, maybe a tad too sweet for me as the pandan lent a pronounced vanilla-like flavor. The same flavor was more effectively applied to the $6 slice of Pandan Bread which I saw waiting for me to order on the counter (Photo 9). It was more a sponge cake and less a dense quick bread with coconut milk and egg whites keeping it fluffy. It was a tasty treat worth the indulgence.

This location only has outdoor dining in their parklet, so when you visit, don't expect a sit down experience. The parklet and sidewalk seating is so perfect for reading the newspaper, chatting with neighbors, dog watching, and waving to the passing cable cars. My favorite menu items are the cocoa cappuccino, vanilla latte (their flavors are seasonal), and the raspberry almond croissant. If you visit, say hi to the staff for me!

I absolutely love this place…read more The coffee, tea and treats are all top notch. I usually try something new every single time. I love the saffron, rose and lotus milk cake.

I really enjoyed my visit to Delah Coffee in San Francisco. The coffee was good, but what stood out…read moreto me most was the ambiance. It has a very serene and relaxing atmosphere with a beautiful Pakistani and Middle Eastern inspired feel that makes it a nice little escape from the busyness of the city. I also enjoyed their desserts. They have a nice variety of cakes and other sweets, so there are plenty of options to choose from. Just expect them to be quite sweet. The service was decent and fairly self service. You grab your own plate, enjoy your food, and then drop everything off near the trash area when you are finished. The location is also a big plus. It is right in the middle of some of San Francisco's busiest streets and neighborhoods, with many popular sites within walking distance. Overall, it is a nice spot to slow down, enjoy some coffee and dessert, and take a little break from the city.

My order: Passion Orange Guava Cake ($8.25): +The cake version of the popular Hawaiian drink, the layers of cake, cookie, and pudding were light & refreshing. +Not too sweet +Aesthetically pleasing -When eaten together, the passion fruit took over so it was hard to detect the guava and orange. Raspberry Almond Croissant ($5.50): +Unlike the typical croissant, it was covered in a crispy cookie blanket, which was different, but in a good way! The croissant inside still maintained its flakiness. +Not too sweet: Filled w/a tart raspberry jam +Huge, which made it perfect for sharing. -Where was the almond??? Side notes: 1.) Paper bags are $0.25 2.) Walking distance from several MUNI lines (1, 38, 38R) *Verdict: 4.5 stars rounded up due to the service. From the moment I walked in, everyone was so friendly! They greeted me with a smile, took the time to answer my questions, and didn't rush me at all.

Went again tonight (9/7) Steven was the guy I got! He said "Labor day weekend is full of amateurs" Man...They are paying your bills! When did this area become NYC? I am not from SF. I am a bartender in San Diego. I, understand your frustration and you have worked there for 5 years. We all know why we get into this business, with that being said... Deciding, to $hit on anyone that could hear you is atrocious and maybe it's time for half of those old timers to retire. This is only my experience from the bar top. Kind of made me sad as they forgot why they chose this profession. Clearly, they have lost that and have become jaded.
