What People Are Saying About San Francisco Coffee Roasting
Featured Review

In Short – This intown favorite occupies a large, comfortable space in the brick building that also houses the Highlands post office. Inside is pleasantly dark, with plenty of warm exposed brick. In fair weather, a row of French windows opens onto the sidewalk. Worn tables and comfortable chairs make it easy for you to park yourself in a corner with a paper or book. Service is easygoing and friendly. This likeable independent coffee house features consistently excellent brews and reliable baked goods. It roasts its own beans, and that distinction becomes apparent when you taste the…
Editor's Tips
- Where to Sit:
- If it's a nice day, try to grab a spot on the back patio, hidden away from the street traffic.

Poor Service
by 93642
I received a discount code from Scout Mob for 50% off and the Prick "Rob" wouldn't let me use the discount on a cup of coffee and insisted that I buy something more expensive. He's just rude, I only wanted a cup of coffee and didn't want to buy a pound. He makes more money if I come buy a cup from him daily vs. buying a lb a making it at home!
Great Coffee House in busy Poncey Highland
by ryansims
Situated in a brick building very close to the intersection of Ponce de Leon and N. Highland Ave., San Francisco coffee has many roasts at their disposal, or dispersal, including a list of 4-5 daily special blends. Baristas know how to make a wonderfully crafted cappuccino and the small bistro tables are just big enough to bring your laptop. A fair amount of outdoor seating is available during the warmer months, and the music is never too loud or brash. Items such as vegan cakes, house-made biscotti, and chocolate confections complement the brewed-bean goodness. Some parking is available, but those in-the-know will park across the street in the church parking lot during non-towing times.
- Pros: Superb Coffee
- Cons: Limited seating if the Emory Kids are a-studyin'
Good coffee, BAD music
by Tureux
I like the ambiance and coffee, but the loud rock music at 8AM is too much. The owner is into his own music preferences with no consideration of how his choices deep fry anyone who is trying to have conversation, read the paper, or do homework.
- Pros: Tasty coffee
- Cons: Loud, Heavy Metal at 8AM
Horrible Owner...
by JadeIIII
The owner/proprietor of this place is the rudest person... Don't waste your time.
The people who work there are friendly and nice, but the guy who owns/runs the place is AWFUL.
a real coffeehouse
by sevnraiz
i go here all the time to hang out with friends and sometimes to be alone and read a book or something. the coffee is tops and I really dig the atmosphere. Nice comfortable neighborhood coffeehouse without the pretentious BS. and the beans are roasted in the basement...which is pretty freakin' cool.
