    Ham and cheese croissant
    Thomas R.

    I was working across the street from this place for over a week and found myself dropping in a few times. There's only street parking available and I noticed a lot of people blocking driveways to come into this place. Very minimal decor and menu. First time I got the chicken pesto sandwich and it was pretty good. It was relatively heavy so I didn't even bother to make it a sandwich, I kinda ate it like a pizza lol. The bread had a nice crunch and all the flavors were where they needed to be. My biggest issue was how long it took for them to make it. My lunch was almost over by the time I got my food and I only had to cross the street to get here lol. I'd recommend calling it in if you're on a time limit, modern solutions amirite? I also got a ham and cheese croissant made one day that was nothing to rave about but it was good enough. I wanna say the pricing isn't too bad here, especially for the city. The workers are chill and professional. A nice family business that seems to be keeping afloat and I support it. The menu can use some additions but if you're ok with just breakfast options and a few sandwiches then you shouldn't have any issues here.

    Dry mediocre club sandwich

    Today I decided to participate in the economic boycott and support small mom and pops. Cafe Gonzalez I will never come back for this mediocre dry $17.24 sandwich. Unfortunately it's just not with it.

    3.5 STARS Logos are important. Cuz brand recognition. Except for a Swedish company named "Locum". Look up their logo...SO much fail. *Facepalm* This little corner spot bordering Noe and Bernal has been a number of cafés through the years. Never made a point to shop by until I saw the black and gold Golden Gate Bridge Logo from afar last week. Ahhh haa! They must be related to Taqueria Gonzalez in The Portola so I decided to make a pit stop for dinner last night. Except when I arrived, I realized there was no "taqueria" in its name. Cafe Gonzalez is a cafe and it was dinner time so breakfast for dinner? Why not! They're open for takeout and indoor dining (4 tables). No outdoor seating. With the mandate lifted, no masks are worn. M E N U Bagels, breakfast burritos/bowls, salads, and sandwiches (Boar's Head). There's also some pastries and chips. For drinks, they have coffee, tea, juices, and canned drinks. F O O D * Breakfast Burrito w/ two eggs, cheese, potatoes, black beans, avocado, and salsa ($8.95) ***Add sausage patties (+$2) Since it's a spin-off Taqueria Gonzalez and I've had their burritos before, I thought the breakfast burrito here would be a safe bet. It was ok; it could use more filling, flavor, and texture. I couldn't find the sausage (one patty diced up) until I was halfway done with one of the halves. Since the tortilla isn't griddled, I think using tater tots or hash browns instead of diced potatoes would give a nice crispy texture and adding more cheese or a saucy element like a chipotle aioli would give it more oomph. S E R V I C E Super friendly staff. Family-owned and operated; kids were playing inside. They're still training folks so kindly be patient. A M B I A N C E Barebones with four indoor tables. P A R K I N G Parking can be tricky but they have a dedicated 10 minute parking zone in front. Overall, a decent morning pit stop before hopping onto 280 S. Wishing the owners the best of luck!

    Cooked to perfection

    The Bacon egg and cheese was Cooked to perfection I'm from North East and that's all we eat so it's definitely can attest to the goodness factor lol . Very clean on inside I'll definitely be back . Great customer service as well

    Came in for a latte on a rainy day. I came in the afternoon so they did not have many bagel flavors left. They have a menu that looks good with breakfast burritos, tacos, eggs and sandwiches for lunch. The prices are about average for the area. Very nice relaxing spot to go have coffee and quick bite to eat. I plan to return to try other menu items.

    Decided to give this new place a go since it was open early and had some veg options. My unpopular opinion is that SF doesn't have the greatest mexican spots or theyre all at least overpriced, but this is coming from someone who lived in LA for over a decade. I suppose one can't expect anyone to be able to afford to live in this city selling $1 tacos though. Anywayyy, it's hard to find a good burrito in the city and it's even harder to find a good veggie burrito...well anywhere tbh. When a spot does offer one, its usually the same as the regular burrito without the meat and to be frank, beans rice lettuce salsa without the meat just ain't doing it folks. ENTER THE B3, which ive attached pictures of. I looked at this thing on the menu and was like...egg whites? Mushrooms? Carrots? In a burrito? It sounded kind of weird but then I also thought, they only have 3 burritos on this menu. Surely, somebody put some thought into this, so I'll give it a try. I'm glad I did. The burrito was great--different but refreshingly so, and that's what I was looking for in a veggie burrito! i devoured it without feeling sluggish afterwards. Compliments to the chef! Staff was friendly and accomodating. I ordered mine w salsa on the side (genetically predisposed to cilantro crowd represent!). The staff gave me some other hot sauce that paired nicely. I love supporting small, family-owned businesses and love it even more when they put out a good product. Keep it up!

    Parmesan chicken

    THE FOOD IS DELICIOUS! El servicio es muy amable. El precio es accesible. Es un lugar familiar

    Mikaela is wonderful. She cooks and serves everything on her own. I ordered a small americano with an extra shot and it smelled heavenly. I also ordered her homemade chicken tamale and it was piping hot and delicious. Don't hesitate to visit this hidden gem in the city!

    2 eggs, cheese, avocado, potato, and salsa burrito 10/10; strawberry, banana, and milk smoothie also 10/10!

    Super solid smoothie and burrito! Great spot for a quick breakfast. Staff is super nice!

    This is the B1 burrito

    This is the best bagel store in Bernal Heights not just because of the delicious food, but the energy and ambiance of this place is so inviting. The owner is the kindest woman I have met and she provides an array of breakfast options that are all scrumptious. Please go here and support this business Such a staple breakfast place

COFFEE: 7/10 (Iced Vanilla Latte) SERVICE: 8/10 AMBIANCE: 9/10 COFFEE: 7/10 I ordered an Iced Vanilla Latte with Oatmilk and thought it was quite watered down. I was not quite a fan of the oatmilk that they used, as it left an interesting aftertaste. I do appreciate how they rotate quality beans and take care in their brewing process, but I just felt my drink could have been stronger and less watered down. I also felt that for the price I paid, the size of the cup was quite small. SERVICE: 8/10 The staff here is friendly and welcoming. They seem genuinely knowledgeable and take time to make your drink right, even when the line gets a little long on weekend mornings. The overall vibe from the team adds to the neighborhood charm. AMBIANCE: 9/10 I love the artwork here. There is so much to look at from left to right and all sides of the cafe. It adds a nice touch to the vibes. The space itself is cozy and bright with cool decor and art, giving it a lively yet relaxed atmosphere that makes you want to stay awhile. Seating a bit limited, but there is more seating outside. Parking is not the best.
