I have been coming here for years and I love it! Favorite coffee cafe in SF for atmosphere and awesome coffee. Baked goods really good too especially the sweet scones when they have them… they go fast!!! If you live coffee cafes you’ll love Four Barrel. Grateful the owners founded and run this awesome SF institution which most often open on holidays too 🙏🙏

Amazing coffee!! Had an oat milk cappuccino and it was very yummy and flavorful. The shop smells so good as there is a guy roasting beans in the back When I went in there were no baked vegan goodies. Would request management to look into this.

This review is about sustainability only! By 2050, there will be more plastic in the ocean than fish, and it means a lot to me as a customer to find local businesses that are helping to mitigate this pollution crisis on our hands. I so appreciate that nearly every single person I see in this coffee shop is drinking out of a real, reusable glass or mug. It is refreshing! Especially when the norm at other cafes has become to create a constant stream of single use plastic trash, even when staying in that place to enjoy the drink. So thank you for being a leader and setting an example, showing what is possible! Bonus points because the coffee was absolutely delicious, as was the pastry. Keep up the amazing work!
