The lemon poppyseed pound cake is perfect.
Excellent coffee. Loved the lemon pound cake, the music and the warm, cozy setting.
The Caffe Mocha - Tcho Chocolate is one of the best mochas you can find, seriously. It's perfectly balanced in terms of sweetness, coffee flavor, & ever so slight bitterness from the amazing chocolate
Hipsters make better coffee. It's a fact.
The way Miette uses visual merchandising to showcase candy and sweets is inspiring. Try the macaroons, get some violet candies too.
We love the Gingerbread Cupcake, made with molasses, ginger, cardamom, nutmeg and dark stout beer, topped with a tangy-sweet cream cheese frosting. Read more.
Love their licorice selection! You can try them from sweet to salty!
Variety of pastries and chocolates. Don't forget to look behind the counter.
Macarons!
Make anyone's day with a picture-perfect cupcake, cookie or macaroon. The coconut mousse is particularly pleasing. They're all almost too pretty to eat. Almost.
It's one of the top 5 cafes in SF. It's 40 years old, the view from the window its beautiful (Saint Petter & Paul's Church) and the service is excellent. Definitely the best choice in Little Italy
Breaded eggplant focaccia sandwich and red wine. Bliss. Old school North Beach.
The best meatball sandwich in town
Best place to introduce your fellows Americans to Russian and Ukrainian basics. Kvas, pelmeni, vareniki, pirozhki, and Napoleon cake.
Best Rye bread in town!
Try the honey cake. Wow.
Excellent New American. More innovative than traditional
Request one of the tables across from the small, open kitchen. It’s a lot of fun to watch the chefs in action. - Inspector
Tasting menu only. Most ingredients come out of their own garden in Los Gatos. Since you are splurging already, you should definitely get the wine pairing. They have a ton of local wines.
Guaranteed wifi - great for tourists - and next to the cablecar stop
Free wifi

Seriously underrated coffee!
Conveniently located within walking distance to West Portal Muni Metro Station!
The scones are outrageously good. Very good tea selection. Perfect spot to work or relax quietly for an afternoon w a cup of tea.
This place is magic.
Stop by on your way to hike Sutro Baths.
This place can be a haven on a Sunday morning, serving up gorgeous, seasonal brunch fare, albeit for a price. You shouldn't miss their perfect beignets or seasonally changing poached egg dishes. Read more.
The food is sublime, the service elegant, the menu a welcome challenge. Boulette's Larder is unique.
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
