Pentacle Coffee has a small menu that is all about the coffee. However, we were tempted by the waffles (they looked amazing) but we ordered coffee. The coffee was excellent. There is a table and a few stools outside the window on Jessie St since there currently is no indoor seating due to Covid safety. Great coffee shop - will visit again.

Owner is super nice and the window is very cute! I got the Mexican Mocha which was really yum, but I’m more of a dark roast coffee drinker so it just wasn’t strong enough for me. Great coffee shop to try out though!

I just want to return to this coffee shop again and again! I enjoyed the flavor and atmosphere of their coffee because it was so relaxing. Their employees were both knowledgeable and courteous. I would really recommend your coffee shop to all of my friends in our neighborhood. Thank you very much for your generosity, gentlemen!

The best coffee shop in town! Ive always had my morning coffee at this coffee shop a few blocks from our office. I was so satisfied and pleased every time I sipped their coffee with their muffins! It was like a natural concoction. My day would be incomplete if I didnt make this pair!

Awesome place with good coffee, made with care. Not that shelved out Starbucks stuff.If you have time, head there, get a coffee, enjoy the plants and take in the environment. Even chat with the owner l.

A nice coffee escape from the surrounding area. Limited seating but good coffee and snacks always makes up for that.

San Francisco has a few real gems among its chaos. I am always swayed when coffee houses have a charming character to them. With many places doing good coffee, its all about the personality of a space that sets it apart for me. The interiors are fresh with succulent plants all around and is housed along an art house. The combination is classy and inviting. This place has as legit a coffee as any top shop. Along with it I took an Almond honey toast which was made with quality dough and butter.

Awesome little place! Great coffee, delicious pastries. And Bobby’s a very welcoming host who’s clearly crazy about good coffee. Had a nice chat about SF and high end specialty espresso machines from Amsterdam. :)

The area seems a bit dodgy but this cafe was a surprise find. Aromatic coffee, friendly barista, artsy vibes- it has it all! Definitely will return for the foamy delicious cappuccino!

My favorite new place to get coffee. So much so I go out of my way to have meetings and friendly catch ups there. Bobby is delightful and it feels great supporting a new business by a dedicated longtime San Franciscan. His experience helping start Four Barrell should inform you that this is a delicious pour every time!

Absolutely the best. Cant be overstated how much I love the space, the espresso, and particularly the staff!

Truly impressive! I thanked you for serving me with a very tasty Caffè Americano. This coffee flavor is my number one favorite, and I was so happy that you got my taste, guys. I like the place because it was so peaceful and cozy. If you care about the tasty coffee and wonderful place, I can recommend this coffee shop to you.

Corner coffee shop lovingly created by former Fourbarrel barista.

Artist at work... I am simple and like cold brew coffee, black and no sugar. My wife likes to try different lattes, mainly with botanical syrups, but not to sweet. Pentacle has a few eclectic drinks and was, not only a good place to find something unique, a great place to watch the barista create art. The passion the barista put into making the drinks makes the drink that much more enjoyable.They have a pastry counter that offers their own version of pop tarts with a range of ingredients (goat cheese, marmalade, etc.) making Pentacle even more distinct.Not being Pentacles fault but so many places in SF are accessed by traveling through trashy areas and Pentacle is no different. I walked about a mile to shop here and I had to dodge urine soaked sidewalks peppered with used needles. Not an experience for the masses or families.Oh, BTW, they want to make sure you know to address the staff with gender neutrality (see photo of sign on the counter).

Perfect, good vibes, hipstery, cool interior, a lovely guy and coffee and the toast, both amazing

Very smooth and aromatic coffee. Tasteful.👍🏼👍🏼

Transforming the neighborhood one coffee at a time. This place is awesome, super relaxed and chill AF. At least, until you get some caffeine in your system.

Delicious coffee and food made by beautiful people

Lovely ambience. Great little coffeeshop and studio on 6th.

It was a bit hard to find the place, but the coffee is amazing

Avoid Blue Bottle (Nestlè owned) and Starbucks’ corporate greed and come here for a real coffee, inviting atmosphere and good eats/drinks all around!Owner is always so friendly and nice. This is truly a lovely location serving up all you could ask for !!

A magical place offering organic coffee plus hidden in the back is the gallery. Deeply moving exhibition about Trump, Muslim women and Shame. A huge mural greets you as you enter the cafe.

Love this place. Great coffee with amazing friendly staffs. Awesome atmosphere as well.If you like Art you should check this place.

Great place!! The coffee with Mexican caramel tasted great.Most importantly though is the the sweet little gallery in the back of the cafe! Drinking your coffee while looking at art is just fun! I will definitely come back here :)

I work across the street from this soon to open business. Its really refreshing to see someone investing in this area. The transformation from a barber shop to a coffee shop has been incredible to watch. Bobby has a cult following when it comes to his barrista skills. I cant wait to support this small locally owned business! ♥️

Beauuuuuutiful! Why wait in a never-ending queue at Blue Bottle down the street when you can have a gorgeous, silky, more relaxed cup of coffee at Pentacle? Crafted with care and a smile. Thank you!

An inviting, magical space with friendly workers and tasty offerings.

Pentacle is my favorite local coffee shop. Great people, great coffee. Always good art to check out, too. I just drink decaf cortados with oat milk, but they make a great drink thats a latte with cajeta (goat milk caramel) that is excellent. Good pastries, good tunes on the record player, and even some nice plants (they also sell some of the little succulents). And very queer/trans friendly, so its really the perfect place for me.

THE BEST COFFEE AND PEOPLE AND OCCASIONAL DOG S AND NICE BATHROOM

Excellent espresso bar, offering a true espresso experience! The Four Barrel roast is strong, without a bite... more cocoa roasted notes and an excellent shot or macchiatto. The room is art-infused with a small active gallery in the back. The team running the place are serious about both the coffee and the art, and I would highly recommend a visit for either, or both.

The place is really cozy and has a good vibe it feels like very calm, and the perfect place to sip a coffee slowly.

Another fabulous local coffee shop in my neighborhood! Great espresso, great service, great art, and I especially love their expansive selection of coffee table books

Grade A drip. Tasty jalapeño cream cheese pop tart. Neat atmosphere. 10/10 would recommend.

Friendly and welcoming staff! Incredible coffee and nice clean crisp and quiet place for a chilled morning coffee... I’ll definitely be back tomorrow

Ill admit, Im a sucker for two things. Excellent coffee, and authentic, superior service. Pentacle Coffee rocks in every way. I adore this place, and its already my daily midday coffee break (I work at San Francisco AIDS Foundation, 2 blocks away).

Super friendly staff helped me get perfect coffee. Tastes so so good. Thank you again!

Excellent coffee served by a friendly (and cute) barista.There’s an art gallery inside and the whole space is welcoming with a thoughtful, clean decor.Check out the beautiful mural while your coffee is being prepared.

Cool spot. Good latte made with vanilla flavored milk. Def gotta come back next time Im in SF

Decent latte, but I was expecting better based on prior reviews.

I walked quiet a bit to get here and on a Sunday afternoon it wasnt open :(

Back when I lived in SF, Bobby Valentino was the best barista I knew! I cant wait to see him and his buddies take their coffee skills and genuinely friendly spirit into this next venture! 💗☕️✨

Very much not in a good area. The inside was beautiful, though and the coffee was really, really good. The staff were super nice and helpful, too.

Pentacle is great coffee without pretension. Always a good record spinning and cute art in the attached gallery. Try to Hawaiian ginger iced tea or the goats milk caramel latte.....

Stellar cortado. Their coffee balances the craze of local blends with grown up flavors. Great vibe. Friendly and tolerant despite hazardous location. Worth a visit!

Love this place!! Great aesthetic, great people, and awesome to have a legit art gallery in back. Will definitely be frequenting.

Coffee and art! Bobby has a lot of experience with coffee and is an exciting exceeding conversationalist. I love this aspect of my neighborhood.

Lovely place. Very chill atmosphere. Delicious coffee, and an interesting, relaxed atmosphere. Turntable behind the counter is a LEGENDARY Technics one, which TBH is worth 4 stars alone

Great service, honest people, awesome coffee!

Great little spot. Very clean, very friendly and quiet a pleasant atmosphere. Not to mention great coffee!

The tastiest Cortado served in the perfect glass! A super cool spot. The roughed up soapstone counter is a nice touch.

Aside from being in an old barber college and just having an awesome look and feel, the cajeta latte is magical. Go get it. Its worth every penny.

This cafe is a great place in a not-so-great neighbourhood. But this is also an upcoming neighbourhood and has other great places surrounding it. Reminds me a lot about four barrell in the super early days. The coffee is great and you should try the special cajeta latte. Places like this need our support, so drop by and have your meetings there :)

Good coffee and cozy environment. Warning: very pricey.

Súper well balanced espresso with great body.

Bobby Valentino is genuinely one of the nicest people in the world. He makes amazing coffee. Go here!!

Bobbys awesome. Coffee is awesome. Teas are awesome. Pastries are awesome. Love all the plants.

Love this place! Great coffee, even better vibes. Cute gallery in the back, too.

I had three coffees — a latte, a short Americano, and a cajeta latte — and all were excellent. It’s a chill, quiet spot with great art and super friendly atmosphere. Lots of succulent plants, too.

Love this coffee shop. Very calm and always good seating, unlike so many of the other coffee shops in the soma/fidi area. If you can tolerate walking through 6th Street, this place is great.

Considerate renovation to a charming space. Cant wait to come round and soak up all the love poured in!

Its a pleasant stop always coming to this cafe.

Good place for coffee and tea and the owner is the nicest person I ever met.. the shop is pet friendly but make sure its a service animalCome by for good coffee and tea and good conversation

LGBTQ friendly, really nice people, interesting art, good music, AND great coffee, too. I find them better and more reliable than blue bottle, even.

Nice place, music, and barista. Presentation is all good dont get me wrong. But the fundamentals I didnt like. Drip coffee was really watered down and sour. There are just two tables. And the cherry on top: theres no wifi.

Definitely worth the short walk here from Union Square. Great San Francisco coffee shop!

This coffee bar is one of the coolest Ive been to. Great people, excellent coffee and authentic atmosphere, with an art gallery on top of that!

Great coffee shop! Nice place to hang out as well

Adorable place, unpretentious, friendly staff, great coffee, and they have cool art in the back. This is one of my favorite coffee shops!

Wandered in here off the street. Great coffee, beautiful space, and nice conversation with Bobby. Ill be back.

Grade A human beings, awesome space, lots love, cool art, many plants. Oh, and cant forget the coffee! 😚👌

Really great coffee and nice vibe. The art gallery was a surprise. :)

Best coffee shop in the bay! Gotta check this place out. Beautiful shop, Knowledgeable and super friendly crew!

$2 for a extra shot! $5 for a 12Oz Latte! Nothing special...just expensive

Great coffee and pastries. Beautiful and quiet despite the environs.

Its was very pleasant and the service was friendly and quick.

Fantastic espresso, awesome baristas.

Bobby knows his coffee and thus far pulls the best shots in town!

It’s places like this that remind me why I love this city so much.

Tried their latte with oatmilk. Recommended.

Cant wait to visit Bobbys shop :) Love seeing the progress and cant wait to taste them beans!

A new coffee shop on sixth street something the community needs and the coffee and pastries are very good.

Awesome cup of real coffee, black, nutty but not bitter, no cream or sugar needed.

Come here to have a great coffee and check out the art gallery in the back.

You can enjoy not only a coffee but also art works.

5 dollar butter toast should be a joke. The coffee is good tho.

Went earlier today. Its located on 6th street but dont let that scare you out of this great coffee shop. I had the cajeta latte. It was sweet but not too sweet. Our barista really took the time to make our coffees. He did confuse our order but oh well. It was still a great experience.You can look at the work of wonderful latin artists while you wait for your coffee.

Really cute place, barista was very friendly and gave us an excellent recommendation for our order

Great service. Really fiendly owner. Awesome artwork.

These people know each other and thier gratuity shows,welcome.

Great coffee, friendly service, a mix of modern and old school SF.

The owners are all about community involvement.

Looking forward to my favorite coffee roaster. Bobby s the best and so is Pentacle

Terrific coffee shop! They know the deal

Great coffee and atmosphere. Also theres a little art gallery in back!

Great local hangout with a gallery and very tasty coffee!

Love the logo, cant wait to get my first cup of coffee!

Great coffee and snacks, with record album music, and the staff are nice!

SOMAs newest coffee shop is by far one of my favorites!

Excellent espresso, good music and welcoming vibe in an artsy space with loads of plants. A huge enrichment for the area!

Chill, place with homemade tarts, sweets, and more.
