The most underrated place in SF, have never been more productive with fantastic seating and food drink selections. Plus the cool cleansing breeze of Golden Gate.

Nice chill place. Comfy. If you get a chance, sign up for the Haunted Haight Walking Tour beforehand. The tour meets up just outside. Tommy is an awesome tour guide!

Order Chocolate to the people. Once they give to you, add honey, cinnamon, and even a bit of brown sugar from the counter. Enjoy!You just had your first first Coffee-gasm!

The coffee called 'Chocolate to the people' is a delight. Don't think twice about ordering it

it's hippy Disneyland - even the hipster fashion gives a nod to the 60s.

I know that it's haight but this place is full of (and smells like) trust fund hippies - get your coffee to go.
Brendan NeeOctober 28, 2012
Free wifi, lots of tables and some decent couch areas too.

Smoothies that use "fresh fruit" also use artificial syrup and isn't blended properly

Although the overwhelming reviews are positive...I was misled. This coffee is pretty rough.

A nice funky place to have some coffee and desserts and multitask with your iPhone, iPad or MacBook Pro (I saw only one non Mac device). Full of tech style ppl.

Go to Coffee to the People, order a macchiato with side order of noseplugs. Not the best coffee, but a fun mix of confused tourists bumping up against street kids w/ dogs on ropes.

I'm here often with Sergio - he may be curious about the video you stream on your MID/netbook/notebook - don't mind him, he'll be glad to reciprocate with one of his video productions on his HTC

get their frequent coffee card, order 10 coffee drinks (hopefully not all at once) and get 1 free!

Take over the couches in the back, take out the laptops and books and spend the day co-pretend-working with some friends.
