Wow, I was so pleasantly surprised by the food here! When we arrived, there was a line out the door, but the line moves quite fast. You can also order online (so that you can just come and pick up your order). The store is quite small, without any seating inside, so it is mostly grab and go. We got the banh mi (with grilled chicken) and turkey pesto club. We had already heard good reviews, but we were still surprised by the quality of food. My favorite was actually the turkey pesto club sandwich -- the fresh ingredients, acidity from the sauces, and crispy toasted bread really made a well-rounded sandwich. Many people come for the spam musubis, but I highly recommend the sandwich. I definitely plan to visit again. read more

A pick up and to-go spot for coffee, tea, pastries and light bites like musubi or toast before heading to the coast. I ordered an iced tea and chicken musubi about the size of my palm. It was ok. Enjoyed the spicy and sweet sauce though. The musubis are pre-made and you get it yourself in the little toaster oven after paying. There are a few benches outside and one inside to enjoy your food. read more

Location is great. Great place to get a snack before walking to the beach. I got a horchata cold brew, over easy egg + spam musubi, and the baked tamago egg + spam musubi. Everything was pretty good. I love a yolky egg, but I actually enjoyed the tamago better. The over easy was way too messy to eat at the beach lol. And the tamago egg was actually more flavorful. read more

I picked up some treats to enjoy at home. The spam kimchi musibi was tasty, and I wish there was just a little bit more kimchi. The bites were sweet, salty and savory. The salmon musibi's egg popped yolky goodness. Every bite was delicious. My 'complaint' was that some of my nori was stuck onto the paper wrap. Nice counter staff, and clean interior. It's a great place to pick up snacks for a beach picnic. read more

Super cute local spot with beautifully presented food! The menu is super interesting (asian fusion vibes) and I didn't expect the dishes to be presented so aesthetically! I loved the colors in the dishes and it was also very affordable. The curry bowl was very flavorful and the veggies were a great addition. It was a little hard to eat since the soak musubi didn't cut easily, but that's my only complaint. It was so comforting on a cold day. The breakfast banh mi was a super interesting and creative combo, but I felt the pickled veggies were a little too strong. Otherwise, it would've been perfect! They ran out of spam so it was half spam half tofu. The tofu was actually very good. The service was super friendly and warm. I loved the vibes inside and outside -- it's so beachy and relaxed. Would definitely come back to try more of the menu! read more

First review of 2026 - YEE! Avenues is an Outer Sunset gem blending a laid-back café with an SF beach vibe. Surfboards and art surround a cozy counter and pet-friendly outdoor seating that's perfect to sip your strawberry matcha on a sunny (or frequently foggy) day. Service is friendly and efficient, ideal for grab-and-go or a casual brunch. Verve Coffee is solid and the made-in-house food shines. We especially love the musubi, avocado toast, and creative breakfast items, with good vegan & gluten free options. They're typically open 8am-3pm daily. Street parking is hit or miss within a block or two, tougher on weekends. Order ahead online at avsf.co to skip the line. Ocean Beach is only 2 walkable blocks away. Makes for a great stop before or after the beach. IYKYK: they participate in TGTG and I was finally lucky enough to score a couple bags today! 2 surprise bags for $4.99 each with a value of $15 per bag. My haul was actually worth $42 and everything was exceptional, including most of my favorites! Korean glass potato noodles, Lemon Chia cake slice, Lavarat Cookie, 3 PCs Musubi of my choice from the case. Highly Recommend: Lavarat Cookie $4.25 Ecuadorian chocolate, sea salt, oats, almonds, walnuts, pretzels, coffee Lemon Chia Slice $4.00 Lemon chia bread made from fresh lemon zest baked every morning and topped with a sweet sugar glaze. Korean Glass Noodles $12 * Vegan, Gluten Free Korean glass potato noodles in a sesame tamari dressing mixed with shiitakes, roasted bell peppers, spinach, roasted carrots, sweet potato with a side of house gochujang sauce. Salmon Toast $11.50 Kippered smoked salmon, cucumber, cherry tomato, avocado topped with fresh lemon juice, maldon salt, pickled onions, cilantro, togarashi on toasted sourdough. Chili garlic recommended. Salmon Musubi $9.25 Kippered smoked salmon, tamari glaze, avocado, egg, pickled cabbage and rice wrapped in nori. Ginger Shoyu Chicken Musubi $6.25 * Gluten Free Roasted chicken tossed with ginger garlic shoyu, charred baby broccoli, seasoned rice wrapped in nori.

I stopped by for a quick coffee while waiting for my name to be called at a restaurant next door. Location is great, right by the beach and other restaurants! More for a grab and go, there's a small seating area inside, and some tables outside. I was surprised by the menu - several options, food, coffee, tea. I went for the Horchata Cold Brew, and it was okay! It tasted like a watered down horchata in my opinion, but it wasn't bad! My dad ordered an Americano with creamer and he said it was absolutely terrible! I felt bad and gave him the rest of my drink, haha. Unfortunately to him, it tasted watered down as if it was the last bit of coffee left that they just needed to get rid of. Wasn't strong at all and didn't taste fresh. Maybe I'll come to try the other items on the menu! read more

Ever since the L-Taraval MUNI train came back to service last year, I have been taking advantage of the route to take my walk at Sunset Dunes. When I've gotten off at 46th Avenue, I've come here on occasion to fuel up before facing the windswept oceanfront. They offer quite a beverage selection in a chill setting with an expansive parklet in front. Gratefully it's not a place that attracts semi-permanent laptoppers because they have just bench seating inside. It's really a spot more ideal for grab and go. During warm weather, I've had their refreshing $6 Matcha Lemonade (Photo 10). When it got colder, I went for the piping hot $4.75 Au Lait (Photo 3). Satisfying libations no matter the climate. I have yet to try their food menu which appears to grow every time I visit. They now offer eight musubi, four grab-&-go choices, and a number of made-to-order toasts and sandwiches. I need to sit a spell and give 'em a try. BEVERAGES - 4 stars...satisfying drinks in all kinds of weather AMBIANCE - 4 stars...chill with a surfer mindset SERVICE - 4 stars...very casual TOTAL - 4 stars...always worth a stop RELATED - Exploring the Sunset? Here's a collection of places I've visited and reviewed: https://yelp.to/x7hGaJ2Kl0 read more

I've had this place saved for awhile and finally got to try it out. To my surprise, my coffee order was okay. This was very much a "you get what you pay for" situation in my opinion, but would love to come back as I find this place to have a lot of potential - especially their food! *What I ordered: -Iced Vanilla Latte - 6/10 rating -Chia Seed Pudding from the grab and go section - 8/10 rating FOOD/COFFEE: 6.5/10 rating I think I paid $6.50 for my Iced Vanilla Latte, which is not bad. I requested oat-milk and saw they use Califia Barista Oatmilk which is my favorite and good quality. The size of my coffee was great for what I paid for. I was bummed how watered down my drink tasted, even with drinking it right away. I appreciated that the latte was not too sweet, tasted creamy, but barely tasted any coffee. The chia seed pudding was yummy. The fruits they used were so sweet and fresh. I loved the granola they added. It was very crunchy, toasty, and not too sweet. SERVICE: 9/10 Straight forward, quick service! Sometimes, that's all you need. AMBIANCE: 9/10 A very clean, modern, comfy small-ish spot. There's minimal indoor seating with ample outdoor seating up front. Their menu option had a perfect option of food and drinks to where there was not too little or too much to pick from. I loved their little Musubi station. They had cool artwork around the store. I believe there were some items to shop for and buy? Although I was not thrilled about my latte, I'm willing to come back one more time to try another drink with a musubi this time! read more

Avenues San Francisco is such a cute little café tucked right by the beach. We popped in right before closing to grab matcha lattes, and the staff couldn't have been nicer. We ordered a spam musubi, and the owner surprised us by giving us two for the price of one, which was such a sweet gesture and honestly made it even better. The café has a cozy indoor vibe and also offers outdoor seating, which is perfect for enjoying the ocean breeze. They even have the most adorable Australian Shepherd just hanging out and greeting everyone, which adds so much charm to the place. After grabbing our drinks and musubi, we took everything down to the beach and it was the perfect way to end the day: warm drinks, good food, and ocean views. read more

Ordered the horchata cold brew and it was okay. I was not able to taste the horchata and the drink itself tasted on the lighter side. Tried a cookie too and it was not bad, on the larger side for the price. They also have masubi too! read more

Dropped by on a Saturday morning around 9am and there was a short line out the door already. It did end up going by quickly. It is a small cafe area without any indoor seating except the bench area for waiting for your order. There is public seating outside where you can sit down to eat and enjoy the weather(on a good day that is). Next to the counter was a warmed countertop with the premade musubis. Grabbed a few things to give them a try: 1) KS Musubi - Kimchi, Over Easy Egg and Spam(6.5/10) - A decent musubi with a good ratio of filling to rice. Nothing wowed me about it; but the over easy egg was cooked well and it comes with the baek-kimchi(white kimchi), which isn't spicy....more of a mild tasting kimchi. 2) Breakfast Club - (6.7/10) - A very good sandwich. Toasted really well and super crunchy. The filling to bread ratio was good. It had the thicker cut of bacon along with a fried egg, arugula, pickled onions and avocado. The flavors of the fillings, aioli, lemon juice and olive oil all work together and complement each other. A light and satisfying sandwich altogether. A critique would be that the egg was kind of small and only appeared half way into eating my sandwich; kind of wish it was more evenly distributed through the sandwich. 3) Matcha Lemonade(5.2/10) - This was just okay...kind of mid. The matcha was very light/watered down along with the lemonade. A light lemonade flavor, not that apparent. Would skip this and maybe give their coffees a try next time. Overall, a super chill and local cafe. Would drop by if in the area or after a hangout by the beach. The area is super nice on a sunny day. read more

We made plans in the area and decided to check out this shop for breakfast. They have a nice neighborhood shop vibe, I think they're a solid spot to walk to if you live nearby. The musubis looked good on yelp, so I was set on ordering one. The musubis are pre-made and can be chosen at the counter by the register. I decided to get the over easy egg & spam musubi and another one with kimchi in it. The musubis were solid and made for a grab and go. I didn't get to try their coffee since Andytown was right along the neighborhood and that's one of my favorite coffee shops in town. Overall, they're a nice local shop for the neighborhood, but I wouldn't necessarily drive out of my way to come here. read more

My friend and I saw a crowd in front of this cafe, so figured we give it a try - seems like a popular place. I loved the minimalist aesthetics when we walked inside. We weren't hungry, otherwise, we would have ordered a few musubi. We had the horchata cold brew and strawberry matcha. Slightly disappointed w/ the horchata cold brew (doesn't taste like a horchata, maybe they needed to add more cinnamon, condense milk or sugar?). But the strawberry matcha was refreshing - highly recommend. And it did come w/ fresh strawberries, so 10/10 for us. Service was quick. I wish they had more indoor seating though. Thankfully the sun was out, so we can sit outside. But on rainy and windy days, oof - it'll have to be a quick grab & go. read more

Wow one of the best breakfasts' I've had in a long time. It isn't as oily or make me feel as bad after I eat like a typically breakfast burrito. Includes fresh ingredients that you find in a standard banh mi but with a creative twist with spam and eggs (for that classic breakfast feel) read more

Avenues is my favorite stop after a nice walk along the beach. Definitely try their food items like musubi and breakfast sandwiches, and don't forget to grab some delicious gochujang sauce! Their matcha on the other hand, is a skip. It is extremely watered down and light on the matcha. I've never tried their coffee, so maybe that can be a better drink option. read more

Delicious! It's a great quick grab spot and the masubi is ready to go in a little hot bar situation. The avocado toast was delicious buuuuut not a whole lot of avocado. The bread is thick and amazing absolutely yet the thin layer of avo is sad and at the very least makes this feel too expensive....its for sure not even a quarter of an avocado. Happy I stopped in for sure. read more

Tofu musubis - yum! Standout was the red chili sauce that comes on the side - make sure you get two. I licked those little sauce containers clean, no joke.

I accidentally found this place when going to Andytown Coffee Roasters. I love spam musubi so we decided to try it after getting coffee. I liked the spam musubi with tamago better but the over easy one was good too and it was my first time trying it with an egg cooked that way. I'll be back to try other musubis and other menu items next time. We took our food to go and the service was friendly and quick. read more

Small cafe by the beach with great coffee, matcha and food! It's cozy so they don't have any seating inside but they do have some outside. You can order online which is helpful because this place can get a little busy on the weekends I got the salmon avocado toast and the salmon onigiri. The salmon toast was very delicious and filling. I added the curry sauce to the onigiri which added some extra flavor. Was also really good! I heard they make a great breakfast sandwich so will have to try it next time! read more

I have been coming here for a 3-4 times a week for the last 5 years, it's me and my little dogs morning routine and a great staple breakfast spot in the sunset. Vibes are awesome especially when the weather is nice! The service has always been exceptional, friendly baristas for the most part and great breakfast/snack options. This review is for how yall are gonna do me on my regular large coffee prices! The prices usually move between $3.45-3.75 a cup for medium/large but last week it went up to $4 a cup which is fine (inflation) I get it. A few days later after finding about the price increase, she only charged me $3.75 for a large. went in today and the dude with the tattoos charges me $5. I had to unfortunately walk out (no coffee in hand *crys*) cuz I felt like the two at the front were gas lighting me about the prices when I was asking. I normally don't like to make a big deal out of stuff but I come here almost everyday and have spent a lot of money here over the years supporting so it really rubbed me the wrong way and the two at the front were low key rude about it. I love this place so much, and love supporting local businesses so 5 stars always for these guys, the owner is awesome and he's always hella nice! Just frustrated about the pricing inconsistency read more

A surf inspired grab-and-go spot with Verve coffee, my daughter and I picked up a cold strawberry matcha latte (she says it's The best!), cafe Au lait and a salmon masubi.

My 20th stop on the quest to find the perfect Avocado Toast. It's currently a thing in San Francisco. (Sorry bacon, you're so last year.) So the verdict? A solid 5 stars. That means Avenues made it into the top 3, definitely earning a spot on the championship podium. Qualifications: The toast is actually toasted. Great flavor profile. Aesthetically pleasing. Friendly staff. Generous layer of mashed avocado, not blender runny. Topped by pickled radishes & onions, dusting of chili powder. Perfection. Good to know: Avenues is takeout only. No laptop village here. It's a tiny space, order at the counter. There's a 3 person bench inside opposite the counter where you order. The line at 8:30 extended outside the door, but shortened quickly. Being a couple blocks from the ocean it tends to be cold & foggy, so you might want to forgo the parklet. I ate in the car, then enjoyed a long walk on the beach. Will definitely return. read more

Stopped by for late breakfast and really enjoyed the musubi coffee combo. The line was a little long but moved quickly. The inside of the store was super small and there are no seats inside but there are a few seating options right outside. The musubis were in a little hot box by the register so you could just grab them. But the selection was pretty limited compared to what's offered on the menu. Not the best musubi I've ever had but it hit the spot in the moment. The breakfast bahn mi was good! I've never had banh mi with spam and egg which was an interesting and surprisingly tasty combo. Overall I enjoyed my experience and especially loved how close the restaurant is to the beach! Makes it easy to go for a nice beach stroll after. read more

Never been there for the actual coffee, but was a super clutch spot to grab some spam misubis on the go to take to outside land if I was in need of a quick bite. The actual storefront is pretty small with it being mostly an area to order but they do have plenty of casual seating outside. Their breakfast bahn mi (I got it it with egg) was probably the best thing I had all weekend. Super unique and very well done. Will be in my regular breakfast rotation since I live nearby read more

Excellent musubi and the breakfast banh mi is awesome. We've basically liked everything we've picked up there.

TLDR: Awesome grab 'n go style breakfast and lunch place. Healthy choices abound here. Great also for just coffee/lattes/cold brews too.. Friendly service with solid choices to satisfy your tummy or for that kick start in the AM. I N T R O . . To the locals here, the Sunset District on the Western end of SF is also known as "The Avenues". Enter now this cozy little grab n go eatery of the same name.. I love the small town beachside vibe here.. and the food and service make this place a slam dunk whenever I feel the need for a relaxed breakfast. Enjoy your meal on the benches just outside of their store! I N S I D E . . . ..you'll find that familiar reclaimed wood aesthetic embellished with surfboards, surfing magazines and actual surfboard wax for sale. This look may seem played out to some, but here just a block from the beach, it really is appropriate given the locals like me who have made this place a regular morning haunt. To get here, there's a decent amount of perpendicular parking on the block outside, or additional parking around the block. Transit? The Muni's L-Taraval light rail brings you right here. F O O D . . . Offerings here span from imaginative upscale takes on Euro pastries, beautifully executed sandwiches that include Viet Bahn Mi and Italian-inspired Paninis, Salads and much more. Check out the menu photos! They are also well known for their Hawaiian-style Musubis with various breakfast fillings. I'm not much into Spam, and felt like I needed a few greens in my lunch, so I chose to have their Turkey, Bacon and Pesto Club Sandwich instead. That Turkey Club was awesome! Served on sourdough pressed and toasted, it's really a Panini sandwich though the menu makes no mention of that. The sourdough served as the perfect vehicle for the yumminess inside, beginning with a perfect amount of deli turkey, finished with bell peppers, fresh arugula for greens, a touch of onion, a delicious dijon cheese spread and a dash of fresh lemon vinaigrette. I ordered without the bacon to try to make this a reasonably healthier choice. I'll definitely get this again, but maybe substitute chicken breast instead of the turkey just for kicks. I have to say, this was one of my most memorable totally yummy sandwiches in a long time! F O R N E X T T I M E . . . Yep.. I'll be back again for many more visits. Salmon & Egg Musubi next time, or maybe a Korean Glass Noodle Salad and that Horchata Cold Brew I wanna also try.. So many choices.. read more

The beverage was not good. I could definitely make this at home and it would taste way better. The girl recommended I tried the pretzel cookie as it's one of her favorites and it was also a miss. Don't think I'll be back for their drinks or pastries, but I am intrigued to try their musubi sandwiches. It's a busy place so maybe I just ordered the wrong things. read more

Ok I have been here twice and this is a very good cafe right few blocks from the beach with a few other sit down restaurants nearby. This is my motivation to keep exercising by the beach because their food items are quite tasty with the crossiant, veggie puff and Spam Musubi are all quite excellent items. I plan to come back again and try everything! LoL well I came back again a week later and tried more healthy items the coconut chia parfait had coconut milk chia pudding with berries and house made granola which was something I was not used to, so I really didn't care for this one; however, the Overnight oats was quite tasty! It had oats, chia, cinnamon mixed with whole milk with honey, banana and their homemade granola. That veggie puff is quite unique and I got another one. Yummy as it is hard to describe,m for its flavorful and moist. This a very good and quick pick up cafe for things to go. Only two people were running this place on Saturday. And this time the cafe was busy with customers. I like this place and I can see why it is so popular with locals. Good quality food and drinks. read more

Nice little coffee spot located in Outer Sunset. Outdoor seating available. Very friendly staff and quick service. Originally came here to grab a coffee, but NEEDED to try one of their Musubis. 5 different Musubis to choose from, I went with the Baked Tamago Egg & Spam Musubi. YUM! 5/5. Comes with a delicious gochujang sauce. Honestly, I didn't love my coffee, but maybe I chose the wrong item. I ordered a dirty chai latte and boy was it spicy. Would definitely come back for another Musubi, but order a different coffee next time. read more

This is exactly the type of place and vibe you want when you're close to the beach in the Outer Sunset. The staff is friendly and it's typical for them to sell a homemade special item. I tried the breakfast banh mi, iced matcha latte, and spam musubi. Despite being a musubi and spam connoisseur, I'd never tried a spam musubi with egg. And WOW, it was incredible. They have a few spots inside to sit, but you're more likely to find seating out front on their cute patio or nearby / at the beach. Highly recommend this spot! read more

Avenues San Francisco - Breakfast banh mi with spam - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Francisco, California

I found this cozy little spot a long time ago called Avenues on Taraval in the Outer Sunset but I never stepped foot inside personally. The wifey usually made the pickup runs for me. But today I decided to finally go myself to grab their Breakfast Banh Mi (I think that's what it's called) and a couple of their musubi options namely the Spam Musubi and the Salmon Musubi. The food here is priced pretty reasonably, and the staff was super friendly. The Breakfast Banh Mi was packed with veggies, pickled goodness, and just hit the spot. The bread was fresh and had that perfect crunch on the outside, I love the generous amount of sesame on top. This was more unique and definitely caught my attention both on the menu and in my hands. The Spam Musubi and Salmon Musubi were great too... solid portions, and the flavor was on point. I opted for the tamago styled egg this time. Forgot to mention that the sauces for each were good pairings as well. Next time, I'm definitely trying the curry add-on for the musubi, which is only $3 more. The place itself is small, with a couple of spots outside to sit and enjoy your meal. Overall, a nice find, and I'll definitely be back for more! Just beware parking can get a bit tight now that there is Galinette, Underdogs, and Andytown near it. read more
