    The ambiance and staff are equally wonderful. I enjoyed the hell out of the soy Cortado; Smoother than Blue Bottle's Gibraltar/SG-120. This is my new favourite coffee in San Francisco.

    Awesome coffee -- really enjoyed my cappuccino. Great service, the barista wanted to make sure he spelled my name right in case I wanted to Instagram my coffee and their famous pineapple wallpaper :)

    Wrecking Ball is small, shiny and minimal (if you exclude its wild, pineappled wall). It's located at the peaceful end of Union in Cow Hollow and serves the best coffee on this side of the hill.

    One best places in SF for high-quality brew coffee. The use Kalita as brewing method and roast their own coffee. Staff is very service-minded.

    Flat white (almond milk for vegans and lactards like me) and a croissant is the way to go 🙏

    The iced coffee on a hot day definitely hit the spot. I'd love to come back and try a pour over when it's not so toasty.

    Excellent coffee in a good neighborhood. You can stroll down Union street with many shops for Window shopping. I liked their wallpaper design.

    Cuuute with the wallpaper and hipsters, etc. Really go for the exquisite espresso and amazing walks of shame spotting on Saturday mornings.

    The lemon poppyseed scone - best ever and just the right size. And of course, the coffee. Just had a black to-go. Perfection.

    Espresso drinks, specifically macchiatos. Not the best in SF, but by far the best in the neighborhood.

    Small quaint place, has your typical lattes and cappuccinos as any other cafe has to offer but with a hint of modernity.
