L's is my most-frequented food establishment on 24th Street. One of the Mission's best kept secrets. #1 neighborhood breakfast sandwich. Friendliest staff (Santos is the man!). Relaxing back patio. Freshly squeezed orange juice. Recently expanded their hours, open early and late. If you're new to the neighborhood, make L's part of your routine. It's easy to become a regular here. read more

L's Caffe - sausage, egg & cheese breakfast on everything bagel - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Francisco, California

A good neighborhood cafe with plenty of space and big salads. The food/drinks come out fast and they also do good, basic breakfast.

L's Caffe serves lots of food and coffee. They have outdoor seating during COVID in the front and back. The back patio has 2 small tables and 2 medium sized tables, each seating up to 2 or 4 respectively. There's wifi, but no outlets. There's a stray black cat that comes by frequently to steal food from you if you choose to give him some. It's quiet if you come in the morning. Parking may be difficult to find within a few blocks of this place. It's a solid place. read more

Came with a group of four for Sunday brunch. Two of us got the special - Belgian waffles, bacon and 2 eggs at 8.99 and two of us got the eggs Benedict at 11.99. We waited probably 20m for the special to arrive, and another 20m for the eggs Benedicts, which was a ridiculous wait. It was pretty empty with only one other table so not sure why we has to wait so long. The food itself: the eggs Benedict were not the greatest. The ham was thick which felt strange to bite into with the soggy combination of the bread, spinach, and eggs. The fruit given weren't ripe enough. It was a disappointment and was definitely overpriced. The waffles were nothing special and not crunchy enough. Ambience: it was a bit run down and the seats looked like they were going to come off soon. Service was pretty decent. Overall: it was alright, but don't think we will be coming back anytime soon. read more

There is so many things wrong with this breakfast. Long story short stick to the sandwiches and drinks. Who in the heavenly father eats shrimp soup at 9 am please let me know. Don't serve things that look like this. Eggs are too wet left a wet spot on my pants. Lunch meat turkey is not breakfast turkey people. That bread was supposed to be white. And the fruit salad has a old orange cut up in it. read more

Whenever I'm in town visiting my boyfriend's family, we would occasionally come here for a quick breakfast bite. I've gotten multiple bagel orders and they've all been delicious. The iced coffee isn't too shabby either. The price is great, but parking can be a hassle. As this neighborhood continues to get gentrified, I really hope this cafe stands strong and continues to thrive! read more

Delicious coffee and eggs Benedict! My cousin had a BLT Sandwich and she loved it too! It's a new spot in Mission and become one of my favorites in SF! I love to find good and small business in SF even more when they are sooo good!!! read more

This is a great spot I stumbled upon taking a walk on 24th street. Their bagel sandwich was really good and the iced coffee was Really good. An added touch is their ice cubes are made of coffee as well so your drink doesn't get diluted, I liked that a lot!! Friendly staff and a nice menu! read more

Best cafe place on 24th st. I remember coming here in the early 2010s when this was one of the first cafe places that provided wifi to their customers. I would come in and work on assignments while enjoying a nice Tea. Moving forwards to 2022 I was able to bring my first born daughter here and they gave amazing service. I ordered a Buffalo Sandwich and it was delicious. Staff was awesome not only to me and the service they provided but also to my little girl. 10/10 would recommend read more

Best place to eat a bagel, drink coffe and something sweet like a alfajores delicious

This is a good, cozy place to bring your laptop. Their organic coffee is passable. The food is above average for a coffeehouse, there are plenty of power outlets, a bathroom, padded seating and free wi-fi. Local art adorns the walls. The vibe is relaxed and clean. The service is very friendly. Bring your headphones unless you enjoy listening to Lionel Richie and/or you run into the guy who chews gum with his mouth open. The menu includes made to order sandwiches ($6.50 and up), soup, salads, wine, beer, pastries (muffins, scones, croissants and custard empanadas), savory Argentinian empanadas, bagels, cookies, and of course coffee and tea. I noticed that their salads are generously sized and quite popular. I think I also spotted alfajores (sandwich cookies with dulce de leche). I had 1/2 a grilled chicken sandwich and 1/2 of the tofu & almond salad. Both were fresh and tasty. The chicken came on a nice toasted rosemary focaccia with Provolone cheese, lettuce, tomato & onions. Simple and satisfying. The bread was much better than I expected. The half salad was huge. It featured marinated tofu pieces and lots of thin almond slivers with mixed greens. I tried the chicken empanada and the shredded chicken inside was sooooo dry (too bad). Parking tip: on weekends, if you find a space on the side streets, you can park there all day for free. read more

I ALWAYS enjoy this place. Today I'm waiting for someone to drop some stuff off in the area, so I treated myself. The people here are so friendly, the prices for the quality and quantity are quite reasonable. Everything is fresh and presented so beautifully. You can tell by the taste alot of pride and care goes into the food. The mimosa's are very tasty and in a large glass. I highly recommend you all try this small but wonderful place. read more

L's Caffe - French toast with Dulce de Leche! Amazing! This is a must try for everyone! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Francisco, California

This place deserves the high ratings. Their food is really good, presentation is pretty awesome and their coffee is really really good quality. Bonus, this was the only place in a while that actually checked my vaccine and ID. I appreciate that because I feel like few places actually do that and that's what keeps us safe. Thank you and I'll be back! read more

L's Caffe - BLT bagel $6.25. Small chai $3.00 - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Francisco, California

Love! My favorite neighborhood cafe for quick lunches and comfort food. Super friendly and obviously hardworking staff, and a cute space to sit and get some work done pre-COVID times. My go-to's are the breakfast burrito with chorizo (bomb!), lox bagel, and tuna melt but everything else is good, too. They're still open during shelter-in-place! read more

What can I say? I love this place. Another place in the mission that offers that true 24th experience. The coffee is delicious,I order the chai here a lot because they have it down to a C ;) and the caffeine is sufficient. I bring all my friends and we chat about the latest incomings and outgoings. The dining room isn't huge but definitely spacious enough to house a bit. The food however is very surprising and great for just a regular cafe. I've had veggie sandwiches here that don't make you miss meat, I've had a Belgian waffle here that I couldn't finish because of how big the portion was. It's amazing. All in all, no complaints, the service is on it and nice people just trying to run their business. read more

Over and Underwhelmed..... Pros: Comfortable ambiance. Convenient location ( once you find parking ). Nice people. Cons: If they take reservations for 14 people, they should be able to serve them. Salt in the soup was a killer. Suggestion: If you're alone or part of a twosome, threesome or foursome...L's is probably great. Star Ratings: - Overall: 3 - Food Quality: 4 ( soup was a 1 ) - Food Quantity: 4 - Dining Room Attractiveness: 3 - Menu: 3 - Beverage List: 3 - Service: 4 - Kitchen: 2 ( it just needs to be bigger ) - Noise: 2 ( acoustics of a laundry machine ) - Price: 4 - Value: 4 - Parking: 1 - Ambiance: 3 About once a month, a group of 6 or 7 couples gets together for a social outing. For November, we decided to go on a walking tour of mural art in the Mission District of SF. As usual, the main question became "where should we eat"? The person in charge of this event asked the organizer of the tour "what restaurant in the area would you recommend for 12-14 people"? The answer was L's Caffe. - Dining Room: Kind of unusual, but so is the neighborhood ( depending on your point of reference. Our's is San Jose and Los Gatos ). There are tables for dining on the left side of L's and chairs for reading/laptop work/schmoozing on the right. If you're not at a table and want to order something, go to the counter a few steps above the main floor. The room itself seemed warm and comfortable...like an old easy chair at home. Nothing fancy or fastidious,, but interesting in a funky 60s-70s sort of way. - Menu: L's serves breakfast, lunch and coffee/snacks. We arrived at 1245 PM, so it was clearly time for lunch. The menu focused on sandwiches and salads with 1 soup of the day. - Food: Hit and miss. I started with corn chowder which had lots of nice corn, but about a bucket of salt. My wife tried some and made a nasty face ( not her usual nice one ). We both had the Grilled Vegetable Panini which was excellent. It was accompanied by a small potato salad and a small fruit salad. Reactions from our friends were varied. Most gave a thumbs up, but there were at least 2 detractors. One person asked for a roast beef sandwich without the cheese. However, it came without anything except roast beef, so she asked for "at least the onions" and received good size bowl of roasted onions. Another person, generally easy to please, said his sandwich was only "fair". I usually have beer with this type of meal, but just went with the water which was placed on each table in big bottles. Unfortunately, I believe it came from a less than reputable source, such as the toilet. It had an odd taste and even odder aftertaste. That beer looked mighty good, but its time had past. - Wine and Beer: The choices were limited, but they did have 3 beers on tap ( light, medium and dark ). - Service: I bet it's normally very good for groups of 1, 2, 3 or 4 people...but we had 14. It took 30 minutes for the soup to arrive and another 20 minutes for the first 8 people to be served. 4 more got their plates 5 minutes later...1 got his 10 minutes later and the final sandwich arrived 15 minutes after the first 8 people were served. Many were done by that time. Why the staggered pace? I saw the kitchen and it's probably just not big enough to handle 14 dishes at one time. On the plus side, our server was friendly and helpful, but some things were beyond her control. - Price and Value: Very reasonable. Our soup and sandwiches were $30, including tax. - Bathroom: There's one. It's locked and the key ( for customers? ) is attached to a long ladel by the counter. The room was small, but relatively clean. The dispenser for paper towels seemed to be out of commission. - Parking: If you know the Mission District, you know the answer. Not too good. Either you get real lucky, find a space and have 20 quarters for the meter...park far away and walk...or move into the neighborhood. If I lived near the Mission District, my wife and I would probably go to L's Caffe for lunch. However, for groups of more than 4, we'd most likely look elsewhere. read more

Omg so delicious.... I will sure drive down here just for my ice chai latte. Cute cafe spot to hang out with friend and catch up read more

L's Caffe - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Francisco, California

Build your own salad is a win in my book. Good portions! But the berry smoothie was mostly just frothy juice.

Cute little sandwich shop serving a nice selection of both breakfast and lunch sandwiches. Awesome specials, and a great selection of accompaniments. The service is always friendly, and the atmosphere is relaxing. So why not five stars? Because it's a pretty spendy sandwich. I'm guessing this is because of the fruit salad and potato salad that come with every sandwich, but I'd rather have my sammy ala carte and not have to fork over almost $13 with tip, not including drink. read more

The food and service were amazing--let alone the atmosphere. Beautiful art and decorations made this cafe even cuter and wonderful to eat at. You definitely want to dine-in if you can. I got the BLT in a bagel and WOW!! An explosion of flavors. My mouth was dancing around and my tummy happy and content. If you're vegetarian there is also a great selection of veggie sandwiches. My server was a wonderful woman too. Very kind and soft-spoken and pleasure nonetheless. Definitely going back. read more

L's Caffe - BLT bagel sandwich on 9 grain bagel. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Francisco, California

I wish I could give a better review. The staff was very nice and great coffee. I ordered the everything bagel and breakfast burrito. The everything bage was delicious. I had an issue with the breakfast burrito. They microwaved the eggs,chorizo, and tortilla. It totally ruined my opinion of the place. read more

I had a chicken pesto sandwich and while it was pretty tasty, I felt that $14 for that along with two tiny sides (fruit and potato/egg salad) was a bit steep. The service also exceptionally slow even though the place wasn't full. Perhaps if the chicken on my sandwich was piping hot, I would've felt better about both the cost and the wait. I don't plan to return. read more

I had coffee and egg and bagel sandwich... so so so good. We will be back next time we are in town.
