Tanner Christensen: Amazing espresso, try an iced almond latte on a hot day. Sit downstairs where it's not as hot as upstairs.
Joe Murphy Librarian: Just about my favorite spot for coffee in SF SOMA. Best iced almond milk latte. Wonderful reading spot overlooking the coffee bar. Excellent creamy roast makes delectable soy/almond milk cappuccino
Luke Cunningham: Great Flat White. Best in the city (so far). Good fun watching the coffee roaster in action, kinda hypnotic watching the beans swirl around.

Erica Ota: coffee is worth the wait. My mocha was delicious! Plus i love the designs they do when adding the milk!
Priya Briggs: Try their Cappuccino to "have in" Much better than the takeaway version and perfect temperature! Best coffee in town.
Pius Uzamere: Best affogato of my life. Creamy vanilla Humphry Slocombe ice cream offset perfectly by the just perceptible bitterness of the Blue Bottle espresso, poured over the ice cream like bisque over lobster.
