The most recognisable name in San Francisco coffee, and the branch worth going to now that the Mint Plaza flagship and the Market Street cafe have both closed. Pour-over done with the rigour that made the company’s reputation.
Best combined with an Acme loaf from the same building and eaten outside on the Embarcadero. On Saturdays the farmers market runs 8am to 2pm just outside.
