Baklava Cheesecake and Americano
Chelsea N.

Cozy and spacious cafe in the Marina! Loved how much natural sunlight it got. The Americano and baklava cheesecake were spot on. Would come again for the cheesecake and for the friendly service.

Coconut Water Matcha

Visited this cafe on a Saturday morning/early afternoon. If you are looking for a place to study or read, I would recommend because it has plenty of seating. Only some tables had outlets. However, the wifi was not very strong and my friend was not able to get much work done. Overall though, the interior was really cute and I would recommend coming with friends to share a drink and chat. In terms of the drinks themselves, I would rate a 3/5 but not sure if we just ordered the wrong things. The coconut matcha tasted diluted and the matcha flavor was not very strong. Same with the Smores coffee, the coffee itself tasted very diluted and I barely tasted the flavor of the drink. The drinks were also pricey (around $9 each).

Passion Matcha ($8.50) + Chicken and Vegetable Filled Phyllo Pastry ($9.15)
Tiffany Y.

this is probably my favorite coffee shop in the Marina to work in because it has lots of light, great seating, wonderful service, and super fun drinks / small bites! I got the iced passion matcha ($8.50), which surprised me on how good the passion fruit flavor was, but it was lacking on the matcha. It almost just tasted like a passion fruit milk to me. I also got the chicken and vegetable pastry, which was heated up, and hit the spot. Would definitely recommend coming here!

Apple pastry

Oh gosh, I wanted to gatekeep this place after stumbling upon it after a workout class that got cancelled, but it'd truly be a crime... Food: 5/5 their California salad is to die for! - Tender, well spiced chicken, perfect balance of corn and chicken to balance out greens without dressing that is too overpowering. Had to come back two days later...Hope to try peach and burrata salad next time - caprese Benedict: yummy but smaller portion size. Served on avo toast. I normally hate Benedict because it's too heavy but was convinced to try a bite and to my surprise, I did not find the sauce and yolk combo to be overpowering at all! - drinks: we ordered hot matcha latte (okay quality, on slower days there's cute latte art) and cardamom latte -pastries: I've tried the baklava cheese cake (has edible flowers on top and warning -- it's RICH so I'd recommend sharing ), apple turnover? (INSANE!!!! My favorite for sure. Must get it slightly heated! Natural flavor of the apple shows through without too much sugar and combines with the light cream and flaky yet chewy pastry underneath for a perfect bite every time), Portuguese egg tart (I'd recommend getting with jam on top. It's not too sweet which is great, definitely tastes more "Portuguese" than Chinese. crust is okay but unfortunately my standard is Bakehouse in Hong Kong now in terms of flakiness...), yuzu macaron, and pistachio macaron Ambiance: 5/5. Clearly a family owned business. Soooo sweet! On weekdays service can be a bit slower as everything is made to order but you can truly feel the love that goes into every dish, the thought behind every corner of seating in the interior. When inside the cafe I genuinely feel like I'm abroad/detached from world around me. Good for a solo date, date with partner, or small group of friends $$: medium in terms of affordability. Typical sf cafe in the marina prices.

I've only tried the matcha, so this review doesn't take into account their food or coffee! I had heard great things about the matcha, but was sadly disappointed. I ordered a seasonal gingerbread matcha latte ($8.50) and while the gingerbread flavor was good, I couldn't taste the matcha at all. I'd go to Tadaima or Komeya if you're looking for matcha in the area. The interior is nice and cozy with many tables! Seems like a family run business which is nice.

Came around 12 on a Friday and they had plenty of open seats! If there's anything to try, it's the baklava cheesecake. I cannot stop thinking about it. It's quite filling but so worth it!! The space is so clean and nice to chat with friends but also to do some work and reading. The staff is also incredibly sweet and so fun to talk to!

Passion Matcha (Oat Milk)
Kyra K.

My companion found Cheminé and wanted to take me since I like matcha. The cafe is so cute and makes for a nice spot to work. We arrived on a weekday. The cafe has good natural light, a decent amount of seating, WiFi, and a casual vibe. I saw lots of people working here. There's a good amount of indoor seating as well as some tables outside. Dogs are allowed inside! Ordering is simple: read the menu, examine the pastry display, place your order, and pay. Service was efficient! The companion got their Pumpkin Matcha, and I got a Passion Matcha with Oat Milk. They were out of soy. I chose this because I've never seen passionfruit offered with matcha. It was sweet yet tart--barely any matcha flavor, leaning more towards the milky side. The price is quite expensive, and it came to over $10 for the drink. I wasn't impressed. I did like my companion more. If you're looking for high-quality matcha, I'd probably skip this place. Cheminé is a cute cafe with food and drinks in the Marina. I'd come back to work but would order something else. Parking is street only.

Main area.  Super clean and inviting.

Amazing. But more than that - unique coffee shop with a eclectic and fresh menu. Don't come here if you want a basic scone. The bakery section has small but very good selection. And there are toasts, salads and sandwiches for something more substantial. On top of that the employees are very friendly. Enjoy.

Tiramisu Matcha Latte
Sarah C.

the drinks we got looked way better than they tasted. we got both the tiramisu matcha latte ($9.50) and the tiramisu latte ($9) and firstly, both were too milky. I like my matcha and espresso strong in my lattes and could not taste a hint of matcha and only a hint of espresso respectively. secondly, the mascarpone was rock solid and difficult to mix into the drinks. it eventually melted but separated into little milk solids. bonus points for calm vibes for working or reading, we sat at a table right by the patio but we also saw a rat scurrying outside on the patio

Came here with some of my colleagues for a quick catch up and coffee pick me up. A friend recommended the cafe for its desserts, and it didn't dissapoint. The cafe was clean and had a very relaxing vibe, especially in the back. The staff were friendly and attentive as soon as we walked in. Never felt rushed, which I really appreciated. The coffee wasn't bad either and it is better than your average cafe. My favorite treat so far is the Baklava cheesecake, and I definitely would get this everytime I come visit. They also serve savory options like sandwiches, toasts, and salads.

This place is so cute. May look small from the outside, but once you go inside, there are ample seatings that go all the way to the back. Their baked goods & pastries are made in house, so u gotta try them. We got ourselves a baklava cheesecake, which was pretty good. The biscoff latte though was so enjoyable coz it wasn't too sweet. PS : it has a little nook for you to lounge in by the fireplace.

Avocado & Mushroom Toast Strawberry Matcha
Valerie G.

I've been saying that they need more larger cafe and coffee shops in this area and voila! Very friendly staff and definitely has more of a home-y feeling than anything commercial. Toast was really good and can't wait to try their lunch sometime in the future! Strawberry matcha good as well but think they specialize in coffee.

Great seating, including outlets.
Matty C.

A new, and very much welcomed, gem of a cafe in the Marina! A fantastic spot to get some work done or catch up with a friend. Cheminé has a fun variety of a menu, including coffee and teas, smoothies, sandwiches, and Mediterranean treats, such as baklava cheesecake. They seem to have a lot of thoughtfully sourced ingredients. I had a delicious iced matcha latte. Next time I'd ask for a little less milk, but it was enjoyable. The owner was so kind, personable, and had contagious excitement about his work. You can tell it is a down to earth family owned place. There is ample seating and outlets, which is hard to find these days. They also have a patio for outdoor seating. I will definitely be back to get some work done here, or perhaps catch their upcoming wine nights!

Sometimes I can surprise myself by realizing that I have not given a review of some of my favorite…read moreestablishments. Indeed the Twisted Street Cafe is one of my favorite all-time breakfast places in San Francisco. I moved back up two years ago. It was important to me to identify the best breakfast houses since breakfast is one of my most important meals of the day for me. I spent a couple weeks, trying out various places. In frankly was quite leery of anything on Lombard Street due to traffic, congestion, dirt and noise. And there were a few that I tried that were not worthy. When I came across the Twisted Street Cafe, I Immediately, I knew it was different. Small, boutique, but fresh fresh fresh food. This is the type of restaurant who remembers your name and I remember your favorite orders As an example, I was working from home and on a series of conference calls so I ordered Twisted Street Cafe from DoorDash. I clearly didn't pay attention to my order and it made a couple of errors on what my usual would be. They knew it was for me, somehow, and called me to verify if I wanted it done my regular way or the way it was came across their order. Of course I want it done the way I would normally have it, and I thanked them profusely for recognizing the mistake and helping to correct it for me. Their food is fresh. Their smoothies are incredibly tasty and fulfilling. They are located on the ground floor next to a very nice boutique hotel. I usually get takeout but on weekends, I'll choose to sit outside in the sun. Clearly, they have fantastic employees who are passionate about their job and really get to know their customers. Highly recommend Twisted Street Cafe for great food and consistency. 5-stars!!

I was SO SO excited to try Kopiku since it's been on my list for so long!! I visited on a Saturday…read moreand luckily the rush came in right behind my friend and I. I'm a lover of pandan and had SO much trouble choosing a drink because of it lol. I ended up ordering the kopi klepon and it was amazing! The drink was super creamy and earthy, and I loved how vibrant the pandan flavor was. Oftentimes when I get pandan drinks the flavor is way too light, but this had the perfect amount. It also had a bit of palm sugar in it, which added just the right level of sweetness. Definitely lived up to the hype!

Been wanting to come here for the longest time since Indonesian coffee sounded so unique! Luckily…read moreno line on a Saturday morning but people slowly started coming in by 9:30. A couple tables along the side but overall not too big inside. Couldn't decide what to get but I loved that their menu included visuals for the components of each drink. Price is slightly on the higher end but I guess you can't get Indonesian coffee anywhere else in SF. Ended up with a macchiato and cappuccino to try. Staff was friendly and I appreciate that they were informative about the macchiato being different than how Starbucks does it. Our drinks were freshly made and ready in 5 mins. Size of the macchiato was definitely a lot smaller than I realized but the coffee was nice and bold. Both drinks allowed us to appreciate the pure coffee bean taste without being too bitter. Looking forward to coming back and trying the popular kopi pandan!
