This breakfast place has great coffee and pastries. I loved the pistachio croissant, totally worth a try! They would run out of the bakery items though so early morning is a good time to go. They dont have a lot of seating compared to the crowd so plan accordingly. The toasts are good too but I like the bakery better
I ordered the Avocado Toast and Smoked Trout. The avocado toast was yummy, a little oily. The bread was good. The smoked trout was really good.. I wish it was served on a larger piece of toast it was small. I had to wait about 15 mins to receive my order. Overall, both were good and moderately well priced. Id recommend stopping here for breakfast or lunch.
At the Mill you can get coffee from Four Barrel and breads from Josey Bread, both are local brands of great quality and value. They also carry some pastry items to complement the offering. On top of that, The Mill has a small produce and pantry selection which is fun to browse through.Pretty chill vibe here and its nice to hang out with friends in their parklet (and that was even before the pandemic when parklets mushroomed all over the city). Overall a cool place to grab a bite on Divis.
The finest coffee store ever! Your coffee shop was ideal for students who wanted to unwind or read a book. If you want to go on a date, you may also ask the staff to play music that would make you want to dance with your companion. The towns coffee shop comes highly recommended! Thank you very much, gentlemen!
This place always has a long line, even in the COVID-19 pandemic! I didn’t understand, but I finally tried the bread for myself, and now I get it. The country loaf that I bought was so fresh and one of the most delicious breads I’ve ever had. The coffee and toast is also good but really the main attraction is the BREAD 😋🍞
I absolutely love The Mill. Yes, the lines are long. Yes, it is worth it. Both the coffee and the toasts are totally delicious. The wonderful tartness of the sourdough-based breads is a unique delight. The coffee and espresso are smooth yet complex. Round and bold cold brew. And the staff are professional and efficient but somehow retain a degree of warmth and welcoming hospitality. Also, they are adorable. Get the raised vanilla donut and, heck, the vegan chocolate while youre at it--take those to-go, because youll want to order the cinnamon toast, avocado toast, and egg in a hole. I love this place so much that I usually book a hotel or airbnb within walking distance when I visit the Bay. Im obsessed.
Lovely Spot, great coffee, they sell good bread too!
Nice cafe but the brown sugar toast was not as tasty as I would have expected. Whatever type of non-white bread they used didn’t mesh well with the brown sugar flavor and it was a bit over toasted.
My friend told me I couldnt go to San Fran without going the The Mill and having one of their toasts... So I did just that, and I regret nothing!! Im not the type of person to usually order a toast when I eat out, but this one was so gooooood. Their bread is so fresh and good. The mix of almond butter + butter + sea salt is amazingly savoury, yet so simple to recreate at home!
Fun atmosphere. Great interior design and incredible coffee
The space is beautiful – I want to come back just to see it again! Coffee was solid and the avocado toast was hearty too.
I would say service with a smile but with masks you never know. But yes you can tell theyre all smiling. The lattes are amazing. If you need anything other than sugar (i.e. stevia, etc) make sure to ask for it. Great service, delicious bread and really good food.
Most delicious latte I have ever had. Four Barrel delivers such quality beans and the baristas here know how to use them. On top of that, service was quick and polite.
Visited from NYC and LOVED their cold coffee! The place is also super cute and staff is very friendly.
My favorite local coffee shop. It has great design/vibe, everyone who works there is friendly, and their toasts are delicious. Not to mention good espresso, as well as delicious bread made in-house, thats also for sale by the loaf. At night they switch to pizza and booze, so its great for all times of day. Always super full so its hard to find seating, but the outdoor public parklet helps. Cannot recommend enough.
I went following a Google Maps suggestion and while for the most part it was ok, I expected more from a cafe with such a long line!, which means you need to wait a while to order, even if it is for takeout. The place is beautiful, nice industrial retro style. The amount of options is more limited than I expected, very specific menu and prices are far from cheap. I ordered a muffin and it was truly delicious, but it was so small that I felt like missing some bites, specially for the price. I also got a croissant which was good, mostly because you could tell it was quite fresh, yet it was not memorable. And I got a a hot chocolate and that was disappointing, average would almost be a an understatement, they need to up their game in that field. The 4 stars are for the muffin, the -1 for the chocolate.
The bread that you can buy here is almost a religious experience. It really is that good!! Just the perfect blend of a crunchy exterior and soft and spongy interior with incredible flavor. And I just love that you can have sourdough made from 100% whole grain flour.A very special place for bread lovers!
Best Cafe in the neighborhood. Great coffee, amazing pastries, delicious bread, friendly staff. Highly addictive.
Great bread and lattes! All bread baked in house, which really shows through, and the quality of their coffee is excellent.
I ordered the Americano... Espresso Coffee is OK... Good not great. But they serve almond milk as an alternative to regular milk. Breads look good but somewhat overpriced. I was listening to a customer ask an associate about the taste of rye. That customer had too much time on her hands. And lets just say, the associate was not very knowledgeable. This place is cool with local works of art. Attracts a very hipster crowd that likes to sit, enjoy coffee and with their good companions.
Ordered a cinnamon sugar toast. Was not disappointed
Sounds odd for something as simple as toast to be brilliantly addicting but it just is! With a wide variety of freshly made roasts, coffees, and a lot of sitting area in a friendly and cool environment, The Mill meets all your hipster & family needs. A classic tradition when I visit, Mahalos 🤙Only downside is the crowds and the prices
Great place for toast lovers. The bread is fantastic and the options for toast are far reaching. The place is open and a bit loud however you can easily have a conversation with the person across from you. There are small tables lining the walls with ponger tables in the middle. Also a small outdoor bench section in front. The coffee is good (four barrel). I certainly enjoyed the mocha. There were few power outlets so I do not think this would be an easy place to work on a computer. Overall, great spot for some food and coffee.
Adventure bread! I wish I could buy this online for shipping, so so good.
Its the best coffee shop in town. In addition, their coffee is moderately priced. They are now running a lovely, simple company that offers outstanding service! It is unquestionably a must-try!
Have been coming here for 8 years and I’m still convinced that their sourdough boule of seed feast is the perfect loaf of bread.
Best bakery in SF! All of the toasts are to die for
Yes, they are busy. During COVID the lines have been long. And theyre not cheap. But Im so grateful they are there-- theyre keeping me sane with their carbs & caffeine!!I love all their bread, but my favorites are Adventure Bread (a dark dense and seedy bread I love to eat with soup to make a full meal) and Red White + Rye (a chewy, well rounded red wheat bread that has some rye in it but no caraway seed, best all-purpose buttered toast Ive ever had!!) The toasts they serve at the cafe are also a great mid-day snack, avocado or cinnamon or what have you are all great; you really cant go wrong!I drink their Four Barrel espresso rather than their coffee (though I think thats good too) and its a perfect gorgeous sweet intense espresso worth biking miles across town for :) I love them so!!!
The Mill is a beautiful light-filled coffee shop with amazing coffee and toast. It’s a beautiful vibe. Coffees are a bit pricy at $6+ for an Almond Latte, but I still go out of my way to visit on every trip! It’s an experience. I do miss their Atelier Dion ceramic mugs - but nonetheless, it’s a great spot! A must try!
Great bread. Acidic, mediocre coffee.
Good, strong coffee and great toasts.
Great vibe, but staff were cold and unwelcoming
Went here for breakfast on my birthday and got the avocado toast and the twice baked pistachio croissant.They were both really good. The croissant was one of the best things I have ever eaten. I will be back for sure!
A great cafe to get some work done! I love the aesthetic of the cafe, but the toast is overpriced IMO and the lack of outlets and seats is why I would give it three stars overall.I love the bread and coffee and would come back if I wanted to find a place to read a book or do a little work, but definitely going to come earlier to make sure I can get a seat.
Great place for coffee and baked goods
Therere a lot of debates going on if a toast (I mean a piece of bread) could cost $5+, BUT! I would totally recommend to experience this place on your own.I like to sit there sipping on my cup of coffee and observe the team work and craziness going on in a bakery corner.If you get lucky, youll meet the owner – Josey Baker – doing his job. Oh, dont worry, youll know its him!
The atmosphere here is chill. Gives you that, step back and relax feeling. Relax outside or inside with the natural sunlight, coming through the glass windowed wall. The tunes were uppity/chill, if that makes sense. Took a bit to get a piece of toast with jam. Tasted like toast with jam. Great bread.Come here for the atmosphere and coffee. Chillax, listen to the tunes and smile.
Poster child of a true coffee shop. Simple menu, fresh ingredients, open space...clatter of dishes echo through the backgrounds of chatter & ease. I sat & watched a barista engaged in his craft with such attention. Another prepping loafs of delicious goodness set on the shelving. I fell in love. The ambience, the free spirit of every individual behind the counter. The epitome of coolness.
Please try the 🥑 🍞 avocado toast!And match a cup of latte☕, you are going to have a great time 🌟
