Thomas McColgan: Good coffee and atmosphere, but too hip for proper wifi.
Giulia Ferrero: Hip cafe' with a parking for your fixie. The service is really good, try a slow pour coffee - I went for a Guatemala's one - and enjoy hipster-watching.

Burt Herman: Nice stylish cafe (but no wifi!)
Kim Pham: Indulge in some stellar coffee & rub elbows with startup nerds + trendy hipsters. Or even worse, startup hipsters.
Nikos Antiporda: This place is huge, but seems they still lack seating. Nevertheless, the coffee is superb, the design is organically modern, and the people are uniquely SF hip.
