It’s one of the best coffees hey San Francisco specially they’re iced you could easily do take out the stairs highly recommend it

One of my favorite specialty coffee shops in SF. The beans for purchase are always fresh (within a couple days off roast) and the drinks are on point. Big fan of the decor at this location too.

Finally, I discovered a coffee shop in my neighborhood. Nice, full-flavored, and strong, and not as expensive as some of the others Ive tried in the past. They serve outstanding coffee and have excellent service throughout. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and connecting to the internet is easy. I would highly recommend this coffee shop to anyone who enjoys coffee.

Dont expect to sit down for a cup of coffee here on a rainy day.No seating inside and the outside parklet was all wet!

Love this place! The lady left out one cup of coffee from our order at first, but she reordered it for us for free. So lovely!

Long wait high price pretty good coffee. Much better alternatives within a block or two.

Nice spot for a coffee and pastry! I had a vegan donut (plain with sprinkles) and the scone of the day. Both very good! My friend got the croissant and a cappuccino. We sat outside and enjoyed the fairly warm SF Sunday morning.

Excellent coffee and can snag some aeropress filters while you’re out!

This place has the highest quality coffee in the city. Comparable to Heart in Portland. I stop by whenever I am in the mission. It has a menu of coffee you can choose from and a super cool vibe inside with interest art. Highly recommend.

I had the Costa Rican El Angel pour over. What an interesting, and fantastic, cup. Without the description I would still have picked up the roasted almond and molasses hints. But, I dont think I would have been able to name the light aftertaste as Coke. A delightful afternoon cup! The folks there were very nice. As a bonus, Ill credit them for arranging the multitude of dogs that descended upon me for playtime while I waited for my cup.

Modern, friendly, great coffee. Rotating single origins and blends. Coffee 5. Atmosphere 4. Service 5. No wifi.

Really spiritual and has great concept about how they do things. Not to mention about their splendid single orogin coffee!

Great coffee and love the space for chilling, reading a book, or working. Always busy and lively, but expect a small line on weekends.

Nice spot to sit and enjoy your coffee. No WiFi or power outlets so you can’t stay forever to work :pCoffee is great and the staff are always friendly.

The place is more than just a coffee shop. It has good coffee and pastries. The staff, the food, the place are all top class. Prices are reasonable as well. They offer a variety of delicious drinks on top of an already satisfying menu. The atmosphere is light and very conducive for productive tasks. Highly recommended!

Coffee is not bad but being forced to wear a mask while they serve you behind a screen is a little too scary for me. Let’s wake up guys.

I like the cortado. Quite good.

Good coffee selection and and great costumer service

VERY PROUD TO GIVE A 5 ⭐️ BECAUSE I WOULD NEVER DRINK COFFEE IN A PLACE I NEVER TRIED BEFORE BUT MY FRIEND BROUGHT ME HERE FOR A QUICK SNACK AND AM SO IMPRESSED

Good coffee, but too noisy musicTheres no WifiI had Latte wirh almond milk, tastes good

This is a very nice place to spend an hour on a coffee break. They have the kinds of coffees that would really satisfy your taste. The crew was really smiley, welcoming, and clearly very proud of the quality of their coffees and service. The place does get crowded as it’s fairly small, but it’s definitely worth a visit. Highly recommended!

Very nice place with a real hipster atmosphere. Coffee was great, I went for their specialty The Nibble.

Awesome latte art, cool interior design. Coffee taste was okay but not spectacular. Clean place but awful music taste, loud at times.Last but not least which respactable coffee place does not have WiFi access?

This cute little coffee shop in this area is a must-visit. The place itself was so captivating. It has a warm cozy atmosphere. The coffees and pastries were so good. The setup and the decor in this coffee shop were so cute. The barista was so friendly and accommodating. I will surely visit this coffee shop again.

My favorite coffee spot on Valencia Street. Been going here every day for 14 years. The baristas are super well trained, their sourcing and roasting is the best, and every cup is crafted with love. Ritual is the best!

I ordered my usual cortado and it was delicious! The espresso was smooth and bright. This is a bustling hip cafe. If you need to camp out to recharge your phone or other device they do have one plug in spot!

Perfect amount of foam and served at the perfect temperature. One of the best coffee spots in San Francisco!

The coffee that they had was so delicious and not too strong. The cakes that they had were so delicious as well. The prices were very affordable. What a great coffee shop!

Great design, coffee and presentation. Staff at register barely responds to you and mine actually yawned while I ordered. Zero response from my Barista after saying thank you for my latte. During my 5 minutes of interaction with the staff, all I’m sensing is pretentiousness which suits the tech bros filling this place. No WiFi. You can smell the bathroom from the seat nearby. Music is too loud to sit and read so I guess they want you to drink your coffee and leave ASAP. Must be a short term money focused business.

An instance of when artisanal translates into a $7 cup of tea or a $5 cup of coffee. Not saying they make bad coffee, but I am saying that they fall into that category of SF coffee spots that gouge customers simply because they can. That, and because the new lease they signed for their sweet, sweet Valencia location is expeeeeensive. I guess that’s the cost of gentrification?

Amazing coffee, expert roasting, preparation, and customer service.Thanks for making me an off-menu 1&1!

Hip spot. Maybe not the best cappuccino I’ve ever had, but this is my second visit. Would visit again the next time I’m in the Mission.

Excellent espresso. Great vegan pastries, cool vibes and outdoor seating

Picked up pie and some very good cafe mocha!

Lots of hype, tough to deliver. They have very good coffee, but its not the best. The wait can be long, and the brew process feels like a production assembly line. Overall I like the place but its more hype than deserved.

My favorite coffee in San Francisco. Heck, my favorite coffee anywhere. Great coffee, welcoming atmosphere, a real local treasure.

I cant tell that I like it because my experience wasnt so pleasant. The macchiato was so regular. The barista wasnt really friendly when I asked to use the corde to charge my phone. Its good to sit here with your laptop here and have a coffee for a long time or get the coffee for to go. I like coffeeshops that are cozy and warm and this one isnt one of them

A true cornerstone of SF coffee. Whether its a pure espresso shot or a sweet drink, Rituals staff has you covered

Love love love the space! Great specialty coffee. Good vibes.

My pour over was ready in a couple of minutes and there were a few seats left to nab. The beans were great, smooth cup with a good balance of flavor. The music was a bit loud but that could just be me.

If coffee is your ritual, this is THE place for you. Great service, nice atmosphere. Enough space for a big group of people.

Its spacious and seems LGBT friendly 👦🏻

Love their light roasted single-origin coffee.

Great coffee. Excellent service

Delicious coffee, fantastic venue! Highly recommend stopping in for a visit.

Dear Ritual, your coffee is amazing.But what I want to tell you is how much you staying open and your service during the COVID-19 is appreciated. You totally won my heart!Yesterday, I visited your storefront for a bag of espresso beans, and your upbeat staff made my day.

Good atmosphere, good barista, very tasty hot chocolate

This small coffee shop tucked away in the corner just opened. Im so glad that I walked in on a hot Saturday afternoon for a hot coffee. I usually hate sweet lattes but took a chance to try their Frenz Cream latte and it was amazing. It was a perfectly balanced amount of sweetness and creaminess.Definitely give it a try. You wont regret it!

Best cold brew (aside from Blue Bottle New Orleans), super smooth

What a wonderful experience! Best coffee I have ever had! Try the a Turkish coffee! Ed the owner was kind enough to give me a taste of the iced Turkish coffee, out of this world! The regular house brew is also excellent! The baklava is great, I love the free samples !!

Good coffee. Wish it was cozier.

This coffee shop is a lovely spot in Korea town, with great coffee options and pastries for breakfast. I stopped in for a quick bite before an early meeting and I wasnt disappointed. The staff is friendly and my soy latte was perfect. Will be sure to stop in again next time Im in L.A.

Perfect place to relax after taking in the Mission District galleries and shops. Perfect place to be with someone dear.

This was my cortado from today. Was also supposed to be a double but was only a single. Seems like Ritual is not as good as it used to be.

Good taste in coffee. The Almond square was so dam good.

Sadly, the coffee here is decent, but it’s consistently served with attitude. On my recent, and now last, visit, three separate employees made the experience disappointing at best and downright unwelcoming at worst. No smiles. No hellos. No “may I help you?” Instead, while the only customer at the counter, it was as if I was interrupting someone when I asked for a beverage from the woman behind the register, or, later, when there was no creamer, the woman at the barista station standing around.The final straw was the fellow sweeping the floor who essentially followed me around as if I were Charles Schultz’s Pigpen character. The place is large; he could have been anywhere else in the store. I don’t expect someone to cater to my every whim, but for $9.75, including my tip, I’ve come to appreciate that a happy work environment extends to generating happy customers that WANT to return. I can’t speak to the feelings of these employees. I can only speak to their demonstrative behavior. I can think of any number of other coffee house retailers that understand this relationship and strive to be positively engaged. I’m going to go to those from now on.

Some of the best in the city. Coffee purists.

Friendly staff, outdoors public parklet, coffee tasted like they described, some anís

Nice coffee shop with lots of seating and a nice bench in the back with a cute little forest area by the window. The music was just way too loud and I couldnt even hear myself think. Coffee was good though.

Found out about this amazing coffee roasters from a barista in my hometown of Boise, Idaho and I love trying coffee from unique places. Ive been to San Fran many times, but have not had the pleasure of checking out Ritual in person (yet). During this lockdown period where we dont get to go out much so it is fun to be able to order something new and exciting. I ordered their single origin coffee Ace which is made for use in espresso machines. The coffee absolutely knocked my socks off!!! They did a great job of shipping it quickly and they send you the freshest roast when you order on their website. Cant wait to visit one of their spots in San Fran next time I am in town...Cheers!!!

A bit of a wait but worth it...delicious coffee!

Your blue haired barista is rude. Couldnt tell you how the coffee is because I got out of line and left. A woman let me in front of her in line (we walked up at the same time), then I got yelled at that I needed to get to the back of the line. K. Bye.

Social distance and approach to ordering and waiting process very well done. Coffee is amazing too!

09/08/20 Update: I am excited to change my previous 3-star rating to 5 stars!Very inconsistent experience with those coffee shops. The one we had coffee at yesterday (Octavia st.) was smooth and mellow, whereas today’s experience at this location is rather poor - bitter tasting, lukewarm cappuccino. Hate it when you expect a high-quality product from the place that sets this standard to themselves, and then end up having something average.

Great atmosphere with great coffee and pastries. Loved the way it was decorated and how there was seating all over the place. They even had an upper level where you can sit and enjoy your coffee while admiring the coffee shop.

Good coffee!

I love how they offer so many vegan and gluten free items that are still affordable. This is such a wonderful addition and great for anyone who is looking for a wide selection of vegan desserts and espresso drinks.

This independent coffee house is a special treasure for Los Angeles. I come here every Sunday morning for the coffee and vegetarian quiche. Everything here is first class. This is a real small time coffee shop with a personal touch. The place is clean, the staff is friendly and chatty. The coffee is wonderful. They have many types of honey related candies and treats along with the latest kamboucha drinks. My husband had a chai latte tea with oatmeal milk that was very filling. Their cheesecake is perfection.

Very good espresso drinks. Interior is late-hipster turn of the last century dark with filament light bulbs. Pastries are solid. Way better than other options in the neighborhood.

This is one of my favorite coffee shops in the city. The location, space, and quality of coffee are all reasons to keep going back. Im an iced coffee fan and their cold brew is one of my favorites- just the right amount of acid and fruit notes. The natural light is great and comes in from both the front and the back, which you cant say for a lot of places in the city! They do a revolving art installation in partnership with local artists, which is always nice to check out. Great spot to sit and work or for a meet up with a friend.

One of the places I got to regularly. Coffee is always good, plenty of seating (although it can get hard to find seating during peak hours). There is also outdoor seating on Valencia Street. I always go for on of their espressos and I have not been disappointed!

My favorite coffee shop in the area, they serve up some delicious beans! You can taste the quality of everything that goes into it. They’re also one of very few places that uses organic milk.Lines can get long sometimes, but they do a great job of moving things along, so I never feel like the wait is excessive. Always worth the wait.

Coffee, espresso, and service are excellent. Restrooms are good. Chocolate chip cookies are not good. They need a bigger place for more 6 and they can make more money plus people will be happy.

Solid coffee. Marvelous music.

If only they did some decent espresso.They have the coffee, they have the machines, the grinders and everything except what matters...baristas and a espresso attitude.Had flat white that was decent however, as said, I would have loved a proper espresso.Might come back again.

Awesome coffee.

Literally cannot go wrong going to any of the Ritual locations. One of the only places I always make sure I visit whenever I am here. I love the Proxy Square location, as well as this one on Valencia st. Going to be tough to beat their quality anywhere, let alone across SF.

We were on our way to Griffith Park and we wanted a caffeine boost. I yelped organic coffee and this was the closest place. And WOW how thankful were we to have the opportunity to try this place. They have a great ceremonial grade matcha that was out of this world. I got it with a double shot of espresso and I was feeling myself. Sooo great!

The breakfast sandwich and the avocado toast are delicious! Very good espresso and friendly staff. I recommend

Very good, cant go wrong. Not the BEST coffee Ive had in sf but definitely top 5

Great coffee and lattes

Hip coffee place. Didnt feel cool enough to be there! 😀 Ordered a cold brew and a ice latte which were very tasty.

Ritual Coffee Roasters was the first coffee cafe I have been to in San Francisco. The moment you walk in, you are surrounded by the smell of freshly made coffee and warmly greeted by the workers. Though there was a long line, they got to me quite fast. I had no idea what to order and the cash register kindly recommended me to their ice coffee. That was a really good choice and was coffee that I have never tasted before. It was refreshing. I stayed there for an hour or two and was a very pleasant experience. I would definitely recommend this cute cafe if anyone wants some coffee!

Very good coffee. No wifi here, but the music is also too loud to read or do any kind of focused work. Theyre clearly optimizing for people not spending very much time in the shop, which is a good way to make money, but also means I wont be coming back 🤷🏽‍♂️

Beautiful space. Great staff. Fast working staff as far as modern coffee shops go

Only one charger in the whole place which is loose so Im sitting by some random wall and holding it in with my shin so the plug does not fall out #qualityOtherwise the coffee is great!

Been getting ice pour overs here for years. Cant beat it.

Ive tried their house coffee (black is my preference) and love their options. I live closer to this location, but found out about Ritual Coffee Roasters from the location in Hayes Valley. This location definitely gets busy and Ive waited for quite some time, but I believe its worth the wait. There is really no way to make their process faster in my opinion. Great service all around and there is lots of seating to just chill.

Great coffee. They also sell vegan donuts from Peoples donuts that are yummy but make sure to arrive early as these tend to sell out super quickly.

Super mellow place with friendly servers and eclectic drink menu and music. Good for chilling and getting some work done. Has public seating in front and road traffic is not too noisy. Recommended!

Coffee is expensive, but coffee is so goooood. Its really crowded at this location on weekends, but probably chill during the week.

Too loud and the dandelion mocha wasnt very chocolatey or sweet. Mostly bitter coffee flavor, almost burnt. Not for lightweights like me. Lots of vegan options though which is awesome!

Amazing, very easy space with fantastic coffee

Literally my favorite coffee in the world from a team that really cares. They love their coffee and have the education to reach out all about its complexities a how they carefully selected the blend. The staff are all great people, the cafes have a fun vibe and if youre just passing through, this is one of the must see SF stops!

As a fan of the traditional Italian cappuccino, the one here didnt impress me. However, the cafe is huge with lots of space which seemed nice for a working session (theyve got communal tables as well as individual ones). I just loved the outside seats here!

Ive always committed ritualistic act at Ritual by worshipping the very slow dripped medium roast coffee with a holy bible slurping and humming like a happy angry glowing eyes cat from the basement. I just love it. Good place to surf the net and ignore everybody else including your date. But I suppose your date is under mind control from you after you drank their powerfully smooth coffee so its no biggie.

Great coffee! But... not a type of coffee place to do stuff like studying or working. They don’t have wifi (can’t imagine a coffee place w/o wifi these days). And I don’t see any electric ports around for charging.

If you are looking for the best coffee in SF, Ritual is one of them but dont forget about Pinhole and Cafe St Jorge and the legendary Four Barrel. All these are Rube Goldberg-made coffee :-)

I really love their double down twinkees, vegan strawberry cheesecake (havent had any other flavor, but Im sure they all taste phenomenal), any of their danishes & the huge moonpie cookie.

A really nice looking ritual but the back of the place stinks. Its right by the bathroom but theres gotta be a way to keep it smelling fresh. Pretty unfortunate as the place is very nice otherwise :(..
