All around pleasant experience in terms of both the service and coffee. I had the flight and…read morethought it was overall good. They explained that the flight includes an espresso shot, espresso shot with milk, hot coffee, and iced coffee. I hadn't had a straight espresso shot before, so this wasn't for me personally just because it was so overpowering. I enjoyed the other three though. Like the majority of SF, parking is difficult to locate. I was dropped off nearby the location. There is indoor and outdoor seating; I was able to grab an empty spot late in the morning on a weekend, but I don't think seating is always readily available. It's not a huge space.

Spacious spot for your work at home needs if you are able to get a spot!…read more I came to coffee shop on a Wednesday afternoon and was able to grab a seat at the communal table to do some work. They do offer WiFi is a great bonus and they have a restroom for customers. There is a couple of 2 person tables, a window side table for solo patrons, a communal table that can seat 6-8, and lots of outdoor seating. I would classify coffee shop as your neighborhood cafe that is great to get some work done and not necessarily a spot with unique drinks. They do have a good selection of pastries for you to try from (unfortunately I was too full prior to try!) I do appreciate that they did have samples for you to try out. Something cool I noticed is that they did have individual mini water pitchers with mini cups for you to take from their sugar/milk station. It's very thoughtful and I appreciate the attention to detail. Not a spot to drive to or add to the list as a must try but if you need a spot to lock in, this is a good choice if you're in the area :)

Pros - open daily and late especially in this area of downtown when most spots are closed on the…read moreweekends, friendly staff. Cons - none! Haha. I only ever tried their iced sanaa latte (medium sweet) and feta cheese hand pie. They both hit the spot every single time. Obsessed. Literally went four days in a row before work because it's just yummy!

I do love a Yemeni café. This one lacks some of the cushiness and charm of the other Yemeni cafés,…read morebut that's to be expected given its location - real estate is scarce. The drinks and such are still solid. One of my go-tos in this area of Soma. A good place to meet up for coffee or to have a destination to walk to during a one on one. I usually get the adeni chai and it usually comes scalding hot, so be careful. If I wanted to spend a long time working there, I would probably prefer to get a pot, but I'm not sure why someone would spend a long time of this area unless they worked at an office here.

I ordered the sohn signature cream top,popcorn chicken,butter croissant, and their breakfast sandwich. Popcorn chicken: it was alright the flavor wasn't memorable but the rice cakes it came with were an interesting addition. Croissant: like any other croissant Breakfast sandwich: I think it was a good balance of ingredients and I enjoyed the texture of the eggs. Not too salty but personally I didn't think it was anything outrageous. sohn signature cream top: I think I enjoyed the drink the cream top was a good contrast to the rest of the drink. It was a good size and not too much ice. I would recommend to try it if you haven't. Or unsure of what to get for drinks. I think this is a place worth to give a try if you're looking for places to take pictures and try new drinks.

I tried thier hojicha latte, which had a strong, tasty flavor that came through very nicely. It wasn't as sweet as I personally preferred, but the depth of the hojicha still made it enjoyable. After finishing our drinks, my friends and I enjoyed exploring their book collection. There's also a small nook upstairs that mainly has childrens' books but also provides a great view of the downstairs area!

I got the Guava Matcha Latte (w/ oat milk) and it was so good!!! I love that the flavor was more on the subtle side, not overpowering guava puree / syrup!

Our group came around 1pm and was able to grab the last 3 sets. Our party of 6 was able to share the 3 sets and feel relatively full. There was a range of dishes, of the selection the tempura and the silky eat was quite delicious. We found the Napa to be a bit floral for our taste but a perfect palette cleanser. The staff were the sweetest and combined tables together to let our party sit together. They even put a candle in the matcha tart for my birthday!

Came for matcha and was disappointed. Busy dine in area and line outside. Ordered for take out and…read morethe drink comes out quick. ~2 minutes. Option to mobile order as well. I got the strawberry matcha and the seasonal lavender matcha. Both drinks were bitter and tasted watered down. Default sweetness was not too sweet but the matcha didn't have the creaminess even with regular milk. Strawberry puree was good but not enough to carry the diluted matcha. The matcha cream pie was solid. Soft matcha filling with very crispy edge. Whipped cream on top was also tasty. Would not come back here for the matcha. Maybe their food is better. With matcha coming out that quick feels like it wasn't prepared well and lost its quality. Street parking here or parking garage next street over.

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!

Hey.. isn't this a coffeehouse!??? lol So I went for the Mocha and a blueberry scone. The Mocha was on point but I have to say the scone had a remarkable moist and almost airy texture with plenty of blueberries. 5/5 on the scone, 4.5/5 on the mocha. The servers were all friendly and seemed to enjoy being here as much as I was! I would love to come back again anytime I am nearby, especially midweek when there aren't any lines!

Chocolate tahini cookie (8/10) - loved that the sweetness was balanced with some salt Salted chocolate babka (7.5/10) - pretty good but not as good as other ones I've had in the city or in nyc. Wished it was more chocolately. The bread/chocolate in this one was a bit dry and not as moist as I would have liked. Might try it in a different flavor next time Definitely need to come back to try their Bourekas and other tea cakes!
