Just one block from my workplace, Hayes Valley Bakeworks is one of my favorite lunch spots,…read moreespecially when I'm in a hurry. They have a straightforward lunch menu, and after several visits, I can confidently say I've enjoyed everything I've tried so far. I usually opt for one of their six sandwiches, paired with either soup or salad. My favorites are the Turkey, Brie & Apple and the Breaded Chicken Breast sandwiches. I've also tried and liked the Chicken Curry Salad and the Mozzarella, Tomato, and Basil sandwiches. I'm a fan of split pea soup, and their Split Pea with Applewood Toasted Almonds complements most of their sandwiches. I haven't tried any of their other soups yet, but I plan to. Recently, when we ran out of milk at the office, I didn't want to use powdered milk, so I stopped by Hayes Valley Bakeworks for a cup of drip coffee. I was pleased with my choice; the coffee was fresh and aromatic without being too strong for my taste. One of these days, I also plan to try one of their pizzas. The Zucchini, Feta, Roasted Red Pepper & Red Onion pizza has caught my eye.

Me tomaron la orden y créanme ha sido el Bagel más caro de la vida!!! Casi $17 USD y lo pedí con jamón, tocino, huevo y queso... confirmen lo que ordenen. Yo honestamente dije, vamos a darle la oportunidad... El servicio fue rápido, un bagel bien realizado pero no volvería a pagar tanto por un bagel créanme... Y ni me pude comprar algo de tomar porque sino llegaría a los $20 USD o quizás más. Pedí un vaso con agua fría y la señorita del café me dio agua natural. El ambiente relajado, siento que todo en el lugar está muy pegado (estrecho). No tienen estacionamiento. El lugar se encuentra sobre una avenida muy transitada. Yo entré porque estaba de paso, iba al city hall de la ciudad. Regresar? No se, no es mi zona. Pero si les quiero decir que es caro, a menos de que pidas Bagel sencillo... no me fijé en todo su menú.

I have been a regular patron since Jane on Larkin opened as I live very close by. Recently I was…read moreaway for a couple months. When I returned to Jane on 9/28/26 (about 12:30) I was shocked to see that the cleanliness has dropped off considerably. The mat at the door was dirty, the floor was grimy, there were spills that had been left and were beginning to dry (a safety hazard). The glass looked like it had not been cleaned recently and when I looked at the window sill, where I was seated, there were hairs on it; and crumbs. However, the pastry was delicious and the young woman who served me was friendly and helpful. But, there was a dour young man just near her who seemed to be scowling at me. I'm not certain what his function was, aside from a bad attitude. It will be awhile before I return and I hope some improvements will be made. I do love the seasonal Pumpkin Bread

I was walking around the Fort Mason Center this morning and came upon this funky little coffee…read moreshop. My friend was not fond of Equator Coffee, so we stopped in here for a latte and a snack. Walking in we found what felt like a real artists hangout. Much of the art on the walls were for sale and had a variety of styles. The coffee bar offers a variety of drinks and foods. What caught my eye right away was one of their coffee drinks was called a Raktajino. This is something only Trekkies would understand as a Klingon drink. I knew I was in the right place. For a snack, I tried their cheesecake bar called Mr. Barry Cheesecake. It was a berry cheesecake with a layer of berries and a crust under the cheese itself. It was delightful except for the fact that it got caught up in the roof of your mouth a lot. I had a honey lavender latte, although the Raktajino sounded good too. Their honey lavender syrup is really good and not too sweet. My friend had their Orange Blossom latte and said it was a little stronger and sweeter than mine but still good. I highly recommend coming here if you're in Fort Mason or anywhere nearby. They had lots of options and a good sense of humor!

After getting breakfast just even a couple of times here, the difference family members already know my name and ask which of my regulars do I want. This personal touch is something you won't get at Starbucks or any other chain. Comfy chairs and benches make this coffee shop the perfect place to hang out with friends, enjoy yummy baked goods/ breakfast sandwiches and of course a fantastic selection of warm and cold beverages. Highly recommend checking them out and if you live in the area, make this your regular java stop. You won't regret it!

This place is such a convenient little neighborhood café. They have all the breakfast staples, and I ordered a breakfast bagel sandwich that really hit the spot. I also tried their Vietnamese coffee, and it was fantastic--rich, smooth, and exactly what I needed to start the day. My cousin ordered a cream cheese bagel, and let's just say they are very generous with the cream cheese. It was stacked so high that it was a little overwhelming, but if you're a cream cheese lover, you'll probably be thrilled! The atmosphere is one of my favorite parts. It's a great place to grab breakfast, sip a coffee, and get some work done. Once you make a purchase, they'll give you the Wi-Fi password, and there were plenty of people working or just relaxing while we were there. They also have donuts and a variety of sandwiches. I'm already planning to come back and try the turkey pesto sandwich. The customer service was friendly, the coffee was excellent, and the overall vibe was welcoming. I'm glad I finally gave this place a try, and it'll definitely be one of my regular stops whenever I'm back in town.

The brie is always so melty, warm and rich with the crunchy bagel. The iced matcha is so large, it will be by your side until you're finished with whatever you're working on. The service is also great, it's a small team of the same people and I always enjoy seeing them as they're always kind. The environment is one of my favorites about this place, there's outdoor seating in the back but my personal favorite is inside. They have a couch area as well if you enjoy that comfy feeling. If you're there to study though, do keep in mind that sometimes there is live music so either come early or know what days they're there. If you need to get work done, relax or catch up with a friend I suggest this place!
