Very good! Just came in for a small drip coffee. Tasty stuff. Staff were all friendly and masked. Place was clean. Back patio was nice and quiet. Definitely worth a shot!

A lot of parking directly across the street and some street parking. A bench outdoors and two European styled small patio table and chairs. When I went, all the indoor dining was closed.

Cozy, quiet coffee shop serving great coffee and lattes! I personally like the local fresh juices available as well for a nice detox. The bakery items arent bad either! 🍰

YUUUUMMM, my go to order is a vanilla lavender Iced latte and the ham and cheese croissant. The staff is super awesome and very accommodating! The vibe in the coffee shop is awesome and I am always super productive there!

Great vibe. Cold brew was delicious.

This used to be San Francisco Coffee Roasting Company. I had a cappuccino that was pretty good. Their Nutella croissant is bad - it’s heavy and doughy, so it shouldn’t even be called a croissant and it tastes like chocolate syrup, not Nutella.

One of the best coffee places in Atlanta!! We love their Mexican chocolate coffee and cold brews. Plus the baristas are the best.

The coffee beans are excellent! Baristas are very nice and their banana bread is very good too. The atmosphere is very laid back--great for some Saturday morning reading, and theres a bike parking spot right outside.

Great coffee shop for coffee and working. they have 2 rooms of indoor tables and a few outdoor tables as well. there are a few outlets around also! their food is also great and theres a whole lot for free parking across the street.

Good food & good service! Great offer shop.

Walked in with my dog because there was no sign indicating “no pets allowed”. Honestly just wanted a quick to go black coffee, but they wouldn’t even let me order, let alone wait outside with my dog to pick up my drink. Went to PERC just down the street, much nicer and cooperative

Really nice and cozy coffee shop on Virginia Highland. I’ll fashioned interior, great selection of coffee to buy. Prices are regular and the personnel is very friendly. Find a minute to get there and have a cup of aromatic morning coffee!

Good selections in drinks and have a good choice of baked goods, I dont like that they charged more than 3.25 for a glass of milk that is almond and soy 1/2 &1/2

The atmosphere is very nice with music playing in the background and generally a small crowd of people working or chatting. The coffee is pretty good, the espresso is a little more bitter than I prefer but was still very good, the coffee cake was also excellent and has a nice oat crumb covering which is an interesting texture to add to a generally more plain dish. San Francisco is definitely worth going to if your in the Highlands, there is plenty of parking behind the building, the line stays very short, and the baristas are very nice and efficient.

Really loved the capuchino and Chocolate cookies of this place.

My experience wasnt a very good one. I waited in line with about 10 people in front of me to finally get to order and then they tell me my cash is no good there. You know they should have had a big sign on the door. I wouldnt have bothered standing in that line for 30 minutes. But I have to say to their credit they did give me a free coffee not the mocha I wanted but you know it was kind of them.

Dine-in as of 5/18. Great coffee, great food, friendly baristas. Highly recommend.

Nice atmosphere, quaint and great staff. Food and coffee is a little pricey but expected considering the area it is in.

Best espresso beans in ATL

Great coffee shop. Their deserts are wonderful! I love the atmosphere because its quiet and small but not too small. You can study peacefully if you want or you can have a nice conversation with a friend without worrying about being too loud. The owner is very friendly and the staff is pleasant to deal with.

Absolutely, hands down my favorite coffee and tasty treat spot in Atlanta. It was San Francisco, but is the same great spot. Pre pandemic this was my second home. My usual Mexican Mocha and hammie sandwich as a solid choice if you need an idea of what to get! Their cookies, breads, pastries,and lunch items are all delicious. You really cant make a back choice here.Love you guys!

The coffee is great and the service from the staff is good they are helpful and kind, the place is wide and well maintained.

Latte good, cortado was very bitter:(But pecan pie was GREAT!

My favorite coffee shop in all of Atlanta. When I lived here, I came all the time and now I bring my husband whenever we visit from Charlotte. The people are so friendly!I recommend the blueberry sour cream muffin and an iced coffee with a little cream and caramel added in. The perfect pick me up! 🤍

Whenever Im in a new area I seek out the local coffee roasters. Some places want to be coffee roasters, but dont know what theyre doing. The pour over I decided on at San Francisco Coffee Roasting was delicious. A knowledgeable staff that was willing to help me out. Skip Starbucks and find this place if youre in the area. You wont be disappointed.

I love this coffee shop! Their hot coffee drinks are incredible. My favorite, salty bee latte with almond milk very light on the honey. Their breakfast sandwiches are great as are their premade quiches, ham and cheese croissants and cinnamon knots! Service is always friendly.

No response to “Hey how are you” or my $1.00 tip for a small coffee, or the two times I said thank you after paying, thinking maybe she didn’t hear me the first time. Back to making my own coffee in the morning.

Their coffee is good but I find it astonishingly rude to verbally ask a customer if they’d like to leave a tip. ESPECIALLY for handing me a $3 cup of black coffee. This seems to be the norm here and not just a single incidence of a rude employee as several different baristas have done this to me now, so clearly management has instructed them to verbally ASK for tips. I’ll going elsewhere for coffee whenever possible solely because of this.

Unpleasant coffee served by unpleasant people.I purchased two shots of espresso, and as I was paying, I asked where the restrooms were. I was told brusquely and dismissively by the person at the register that they werent providing restrooms for customers. He then immediately followed this statement up by asking how much I wanted to tip him. I told him no additional tip. His response was, Yeah okay. We use that money to feed our families, but sure you just do whatever.As for the espresso itself, it was watery and overheated. It might work in a drink with milk and syrup, but by itself it wasnt good.Ive been to quite a few great coffee shops in Atlanta. This was not one of them.

A top 3 coffee shop in Atlanta for me. Absolutely love coming here. The outlet situation could be a lot better though. So come charged up.

This store, my fav coffee shop, needs to PLEASE re-open some dine in tables- not all- just a few or at least their outdoor patio in the back. And I dislike the Card only shopping because I like using my cash for small purchases or treats like coffee. The help have always been friendly and welcoming, but no more. What’s up with that.Just plain mean and not at all nice/ Covid fear!Get over it. Wear the masks, wash your hands,(Oh but no restroom to wash up!) social distance. Play nice! And safe.

In my opinion, one of the best coffee shops in Atlanta.The staff is consistently friendly, the atmosphere is nice, and the coffee is very good. The Mexican mocha is the best mocha you can get inside the perimeter.

Cozy little coffee shop

Long time local classic with locally roasted beans serving quiet retreat away from the Highland bustle.

Great little coffee shop with excellent coffee, tea, pastries and sandwiches. Calm, comfortable atmosphere. Really good staff. It was easy to have a conversation there with no intrusion from loud music. Parking across the street was very helpful, although some street parking is available too. Hidden gem, glad I found it!

Love this cozy cafe to work or meet friends for coffee. Im not a big coffee drinker, but their drinks taste great to me. Plenty of parking in the back, theres always a fun playlist on, and a nice homey vibe to the place that somewhere like Starbucks lacks. Also has a covered back patio. Definitely fills up during weekdays.

Best service, nice baristas, friendly comfortable atmosphere. Looking forward to being able to sit and hang out for awhile when this pandemic is over.

The coffee is better than Starbucks on average. The staff is meh and the ambiance is...well there isnt any..very old place, uncomfortable chairs, but the mugs they serve in are perfect. For a cup of Coffee - yes, for anything else; checking emails, meeting friends,etc.- no....parking sucks.

Just started coming here again after my commute changed and I get to bike past here most mornings. Its got a great weekday morning scene with a mix of people: workers stopping in to get coffee to go, school kids getting hot chocolate on their way to school, and people settled in for a while with their laptops. Service is quick and I like that they encourage you to bring your own mug/thermos. Coffee and breakfast sandwiches are very good.

This is my favorite Atlanta coffee shop due to the area, atmosphere, and consistent experience I get. Its generally a bit busy, but theres always somewhere to sit. The coffee is always fresh, the staff always attentive, and the crowd is generally good-tempered and diverse. If I had to knock off a few pts, their pastries and sandwiches arent anything special and the tables arent comfortable so Im always looking to move to a cushioned chair. If you love VaHi and kicking back at a relaxed coffee shop, this is it.

I really like this place. It has good vibes and is a great spot to sit down and do some work, catch up with friends, or just swing in for a quick cup of your favorite coffee beverage. The cold brew spritzer is my favorite (cold brew, seltzer, and a fresh lemon slice).

Mostly go to this neighborhood coffee shop for its whole-bean, in-house roasted coffees (especially the Old Whalers Blend). Its also a great meeting place (especially on Spring and Fall morning when they can open up the store to the outside). On a few occasions Ive had their sandwiches and breakfast items - all were excellent. Unlike many in town establishments, theres plenty of parking behind the store, or across the street.

Great Vanilla Chai! Friendly staff.

Love this coffee shop. Ive been coming for years and its always warm and welcoming. The lack of outlets can be annoying if youre attempting to work on your laptop but the food and coffee always hits the spot. They make a great espresso and tonic drink for those hot summer days.

My Friday morning routine, I love it

My go to coffee place!

Easily one of my favorite places in Atlanta. Any time I’m looking to treat myself in the mornings I stop in for a quiche and some coffee. Everyone is super nice and we’ve never had an issue there. Love it!

A great stop after USPS or DBA, San Francisco Roasting Co. is a small coffee house with friendly staff, cakes and pastries, and good coffee. They even have their own roasts. Try the Cake in a Cup coffee, its really good.

This would easily be one of the top coffee shops for me except for one thing. The lack of outlets! There are some but don’t come expecting to get one. Other than that the coffee is good, lots of parking (there a free lot, always a plus) and it has a great quiet cozy vibe.

Incredibly good coffee coupled with delicious pastries and a warm vibe make this a fantAstic place to settle in for a morning and chat or commune with one’s laptop. Good WI-FI too. Way way better than the neighboring Alon’s.

Amazing coffee and employees go out of their way for you! Gluten free baked goods too!

BEWARE: DECEPTIVE, DECEITFUL, FRAUDULENT PRACTICECAUTION to customers of San Francisco Coffee Roasting Co: The 1lb bags of coffee that you think you are buying are really only 12oz. They do not state this on their website, on the bag or tell you in person when you ask for one/two/three (however many) pounds of coffee. Instead of being transparent and honest when you ask for a certain amount, they just grab their pre-filled bags which weigh 12 oz. They DO NOT tell you you are really paying far more per pound than you think you are paying. The have their advertised price but do not indicate that the price is for 12oz, not the full 16oz that is the industry standard, which is exactly why they are doing it, and how they are getting away with it. Nobody expects the bags to be filled with less than 1lb. You think you are paying $14/lb when you are really handing over $18/lb. They would rather fool and cheat their customers for extra income, than be a fair and honest organization. I wonder, how do the faithful long-time customers feel about being fooled and taken advantage in this way for so long? I wrote an email complaining to them and did not even receive a response. No shame. Slimy tactics, fraudulent practice! The icing on the top? Mediocre coffee. Why would anybody continue to go to this shop? There are better roasters/shops in the area who appreciate and value their customers.

I like the vibe, I like the consistency, I like the location, and I find myself returning constantly. The taste of their coffee is perhaps a little too strong for my taste wich at times can make the coffee taste a little more dense and a bit burned. Though Im not a light or sweet coffee drinker, I do prefer a smoother aftertaste to my espresso. Would recommend this place to someone who likes a more smoky flavor to coffee.

Its a fun place for everyone, and serves delicious coffee. They even have childrens music recitals sometimes from eclectic music.

SF coffee is a great place to work, read, or hang out. It has an array of specialty coffee drinks - Ive only tried the special espresso blend but it was delicious. Their brewed coffee and regular latte is excellent.

This is a great place to meet a friend for a catch up, or an associate for a meeting. Solid baristas, friendly staff, good lite bites. Its a good size place, but so popular that sometimes still tough to find a seat.

Quaint little coffee shop for working and reading, nice warm sunshine through the French windows too.

Great atmosphere for studying (quiet with non-obnoxious music). The fog lifter drink was great. Good selection of pastries, ice cream, and cookies.

Awesome crew! Great coffee!!

Love their Sumatra roast and ice coffee

SF Coffee is a quaint but busseling shop that is now my favorite breakfast destination. The menu is limited but the atmosphere is a gem. Coffee selection is very good but could also benefit by more variety or at least a rotation to include new selections

The atmosphere was great and it was crowded on a Saturday morning. They have a good variety of coffees on drip or pour over. The food looked good but I didnt get any. They roast on location so it was very fresh.

Very nice and knowledgeable staff. I asked about green coffee beans and they were happy to accommodate. They have a great selection of beans and some good pastries too. In a great area too.

Brother and I have gone separately for 20+ years. Consistent service, with some good small food items. Fits well with the atmosphere & architectural look of the 85-120+ year old neighborhood.

They have great selection coffee ☕! The atmosphere is great especially if you sit at the bar in front the window. However, I had to remove one star because the service is a bit lacking. To be fair, the service is generally good but some employees are a bit... Unfriendly.

The staff has changed since the last time I was in. Much better. More customer oriented. First time Ive been able to find Costa Rican Tarrazu in a while but I believe thats because the owner is discerning about where the beans come from. The way theyre roasted makes all the difference in the world and they know what theyre doing. Better than burnt beans from Starbucks anytime.

We had an amazing latte and a Peruvian pour-over. Girlfriend had to stop in because shes from CA and we were pleasantly surprised. She felt right at home.

A great place. The Sumatra Mandheling is my favorite!

Came in the other morning and had a barista that kept calling me baby and sweetie and hun, it made me super uncomfortable... was hoping the almond milk latte I ordered would make up for the very unsettling greeting but it didn’t.. the milk was burnt and separated almost immediately. Whomever this gentleman was needs to focus more on making his drinks and less on trying to flirt with customers. And on top of everything a female with dark hair rolled her eyes at me when I asked what alternate milks they offered. Overall, I will not be returning.

My go-to coffee spot in the Highlands. Best bacon, egg and cheese in Atlanta. Consistently meets expectations and has a very laid-back environment. Highly recommended.

A coffee place with character! The coffee guy had his own approach to giving you his brew, bound to make you laugh. A lot of worknomads and an atmosphere of networking. Great place to do some work on writing.

SF Coffee has been a go to for 15yrs or more. Each location is well run, clean and consistent. Giving four stars due to crowded space b/c of merchandise displays.

Networking with a colleague, we had a couple of iced coffees. Quick, friendly service, shop full of folks working on their laptops. Lots of parking in rear.

Not only is the quality of their drinks to notch, but the staff and customers were friendly. I love it here. We were evacuees from Hurricane Irma this wknd and this was a bright spot to our day. I wish I could move here.

Love this place. Great coffee. And such a quiet little coffee shop atmosphere! Love it

Ive eaten 327 muffins but recently Mayfield has got me hooked on a breakfast sandwich. He made it great and theyre highly recommended!

The Highland Ave. location is a great place to hang out while savoring some really good jo with a sandwich or pastry. Plenty of convenient free parking. Also easily accessible via MARTA #816 & #36 if you live in the hood and dont want to drive there. Nice eclectic clientel.

Pretty lazy employees the last couple of times Ive been. Last time I went the employee was texting and did not notice me walk up. When I got his attention he appeared unhappy to have been bothered. They had no cream of any kind out and I had to ask for it. The restroom has been dirty and smelly every time Ive gone. The most recent time both trashcans were overflowing. The drip coffees really good though. Outlet situation is OK but a little subpar.

Best coffee shop in Atlanta! Good food. Great staff. Local owner, not a franchise.

Im coming here regularly again. I stopped quite a while back when they stopped making their egg salad spread. Dropped in last month and found that they are making it again. I ride over from Mableton to get enough for work lunches.

Stumbled on this place after going to the post office next door. I went on a Saturday morning, so it was crowded, but the coffee and breakfast sandwiches are reasonably priced and well worth a small wait. Its a great place with a lot more seating than i expected.

Pretty good coffee and atmosphere (not too quiet; not too crowded). The food items are overpriced for what they are, but the coffee selection is fantastic. Theres even a free parking lot behind the building so you wont have to lug 50 lbs worth of books to go study.

Great atmosphere, spacious, quality service, cute baristas

Great coffee and cookies! Friendly service and good atmosphere.

Great little coffee shop with very local feel (even for a chain). Real furniture and cozy vibe. Whe. Weather is good they open the huge bay window on the side. Normal coffee shop prices but they have a $1 refil on regular coffee self serve.

Very welcoming fast and polite. Good place to study or meet friends for coffee.

Great coffee. I bought a stash of Ground to go as I paid 15 bucks for a large mocha and breakfast sandwich. I found the price outrageous but its the Highlands everything is. So Ill be making my coffee at home and making infrequent visits lol

I live in the neighborhood and have been here several times. I stopped going a couple of years ago because some of the employees are not very friendly (you get the feeling that they would rather be somewhere else), and they allow those with gift cards to cut in line, which is especially irritating when the line is long in the morning. I may try it again to see if anything has improved.

Im a regular, have been for years. Sadly, the coffee sometimes tastes dirty. Probably those big vats need cleaning. With so many great coffeehouses intown, hard to stay number one. But the cafe ambiance is very fine here. Great place to read, write and work online if you can find an outlet. The wifi is jumpy. Opens early. Another one farther south if you dont mind a long walk or a short ride on the. # 16 Marta bus.

Fantastic coffee! I will be back next time Im in the area

The best coffee shop un Atlanta. Great food and coffee.

Thanks Ron for the the BEST Mexican chocolate mocha ever!

The black coffee here is good, other than that his place is a time-waster. We ordered a piece of quiche and a plain bagel, toasted, with butter and cream cheese, to go. We waited 15 minutes. It was ridiculous. When the kitchen help finally brought out the bagel, he said, bagel with butter... I asked, its got cream cheese, right? He said, Oh, yeah, I think the ticket did say that. So, he took it back and another 3 minutes went by. He brought it back and I asked about my quiche, which the front clerk was warming in the microwave ... apparently he had forgotten about it. I think the owner got a new piece of quiche for me because I had watched another dude throw out a quiche container. It really reached the point of being comical. The quiche was mediocre. The bagel was soggy from too much butter.

Good coffee and great baristas make it Morningsides default meeting spot.

Delicious light food offering, staff, and of course coffee

I love this place! Everyone is kind and the food/drinks are delicious!

Never heard of this place until I went to grab coffee with my cousins. Amazing coffee and yummy treats!

Nicely roasted coffee, very friendly vibe, and loads of space...come with batteries, only two outlets in the place!

Nice little place with a good atmosphere. However I have 2 complaints. 1, the wifi isnt great and it disconnects every so often. 2, they messed up my order. I ordered an everything bagel and egg salad. After waiting a little bit, the guy called out everything bagel with egg salad and wasabi. Wasabi?! Where did that come from? Thought I may have heard wrong and nobody else came up to pick up the order so I went ahead and ate it. Wouldve been delicious if not for the random wasabi. Really ruined the taste for me. Why would I want wasabi. Those words never came out of my mouth. Ugh.

One of the places I miss the most about Virginia Highlands. Great selection of coffee and pastries.
