    Matcha latte
    Sarah C.

    Had a delicious oat flat white! Also tried the iced matcha latte but thought it was a little weak, so I wouldn't come just for that. It's a small store but has good amount of seating and WiFi

    Earl grey latte

    Busy small shop. A lot of people hanging out. Made our drinks pretty fast. The vanilla latte was good but the earl grey latte, that everyone gets was lacking something. Very milky. I would try something else

    Quick line to order. Although the coffee house is not large, there's a couple seating and then some standing space. Order a hot latte ($5.50) which was 10oz. The pickup area gets a bit crowded. As for the latte, the beans are really good, has some caramel with cherry notes. The prices are really good for a cup of coffee. Has some interesting flavors such as raspberry matcha and early grey latte with espresso shot.

    This is a cute very quaint coffee house in a pretty busy area of town. I got a cortado as that is my go to at most coffeehouses and it definitely was too milky. I felt like the ratio was off. My husband got a cappuccino and he loved it. So probably a place worth stopping by if you're in the area but for me it wasn't anything to rave about. Service was friendly.

    Great little coffee shop on Fillmore in Pacific Heights. This place was jumping, with a long line out the door. Seating is available both inside and out. The coffee is excellent!! We definitely enjoyed our time together here. It's a great little place!

    Came here on a Saturday morning and the line was long and out the door and the place itself is pretty loud and cramped inside, so I grabbed my drink to go. I ordered a latte with oat milk and added the peppermint syrup from their holiday menu, and easily one of the best lattes I've had. What really made it work was how subtle the peppermint was. It wasn't sweet or candy cane like at all but more herbal. And despite all the chaos, the baristas were super friendly. The person taking my order was especially helpful and patient. This was the perfect drink for a cold SF morning and a long walk afterward. Worth the line for me, at least for that peppermint latte.

    great coffee, friendly staff, drinks come out quickly even when they're busy. i love that they still offer soy milk and it's less than $1, which is rare for the city. it's also so rare to have at least 1 labeled vegan option in the pastry case, which i really appreciate and would always love to see more of.

    Flat whites with pretty latte art & strong espresso!

    It's been over four years since I last tried Compton's Coffee House, and frankly I had forgotten that I'd been here before until I saw my own review upon checking in. Despite this passage of time, my latest visit was just as good as the first time (based on my previous review!) My partner and I both decided to get flat whites. Both came out at the perfect temperature - hot but not tongue-scalding. The espresso was *strong*, and the steamed milk had the perfect creamy mouthfeel, with an extra bonus of pretty art. It was quite busy when we stopped by shortly before lunchtime on a Saturday. There was a line out the door, but it moved quickly; it took a bit longer to get our drinks, but understandable given their popularity. The staff we interacted with were all lovely. I wish I lived closer to Compton's so I could go more often! Next time I return, hopefully it'll be much sooner than four years.

    Great coffee!! Definitely one of my favorites on my trip to San Francisco. Fast service.

    Fav coffee shop in the city hands down! I love the location of this one, I have found it tough to work from here because space and seats are a bit limited and they do get taken pretty quickly... but it's great to stop, grab a drink and stroll fillmore. I always get the raspberry matcha which is delicious each time, unique flavor combination and solid matcha. Recently I got the maple cinnamon latte and really enjoyed it! Wasn't too sweet but could still taste hints of maple and cinnamon, and overall great coffee :)

    Raspberry Matcha

    Visited San Francisco for my birthday weekend and I wanted to try ALLL the Coffee shops!! So many options in the city I was overwhelmed by which one to pick for the day. I decided to go to Compton's as it was the nearest to me at the time. OMGGGG best decision!! I had saved this spot in my collection and seen that everyone was raving about their raspberry matcha but once I arrived there was so many other options I wanted to try. I asked the girl taking my order what she recommended and we decided on the Raspberry Matcha since that was the reason I wanted to go there in the first place LOL. She was the most friendliest staff I have ever come across! It felt like we became friends at the moment!! She also let me know that if I didn't like my drink we could trade it out. Of course I tried my drink and did NOT want to trade it out... it was soooo yummy!! Even though the shop was pretty busy she still made the time to double check and make sure I liked my drink. EXTRA POINTS!! The space is small but super cute! I wouldn't recommend working here but a great space for pick up or to grab coffee with a friend! There is seating outside which would be perfect when the weather is nice.

    If the place is super crowded at all times, it's a sign that we must try it !!! This is a cute little cafe with wifi and limited seatings. Their seasonal coffees are famous. I tried orange infused cappuccino- Loved it! We also tried, veg scone - Delicious! It is savory with some cheese and hint of garlic and spring onions. (I think) Morning bun: it is cinnamon coated pastry , not too sweet , just perfect. Coffee is not too strong, kind of on milder side. So order as per your preference.

    Unfortunately, this matcha was a miss for me the iced matcha latte tasted so watery and bland. I tried to add honey to sweeten it, but it only made it slightly better. The raspberry matcha latte was definitely better than the normal matcha latte, but it was sooo raspberry forward, it just tasted over sweet and like drinking straight raspberry flavored syrup. Super cute shop though and nice, fast service!

    Sweet Glory does not announce itself. No loud signage, no line out the door begging for your…read moreattention. Just a quiet marble table, a tiny vase with two yellow flowers, and a slice of matcha crepe cake that makes you forget what you were stressed about. I came in on a weekday afternoon and ordered the matcha crepe cake and a passion fruit refresher. The cake is the kind that looks almost too precise to eat. Dozens of paper thin layers stacked with the kind of patience most people reserve for things that actually matter. The matcha flavor is real, not the green tea powder imposter you get everywhere else. The drinks are thoughtful too. Not sweet for the sake of being sweet. You can tell someone actually tasted these before putting them on the menu. The space itself earns its own mention. Marble counters, natural light pouring in from the street, good music at a volume that lets you actually have a conversation. It feels like someone designed it for the experience, not the Instagram photo, which ironically makes it very photogenic. 4.7 stars on Yelp with nearly 300 reviews and I understand every single one of them. If you are in the Inner Sunset and you pass this place without stopping, that is on you.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

They also have a fun salted egg yolk latte which I thought was very tasty. I tried the roasted corn cheesecake which I really enjoyed! Good texture and thought the corn flavor paired very well. One drink and one slice of cake came to $20 so it's not cheap! But a fun treat
