    Epic Breakfast Sandwich
    Cecilia B.

    We ordered lattes and the breakfast bagel. Coffee was delicious. Bagel was the perfect meal to start the day; it did not feel too greasy or heavy. Service was super quick. They offer NA beer/wine/cocktails They are dog friendly Not the most comfy seating (no back support) to enjoy a NA bottle but perfect for a quick bite. The chairs near the front did have back support. I would come back.

    I am beyond thrilled that a place like Ocean Beach Cafe exists! It is exactly what the Outer Richmond needed. From the moment I walked in, the owner and the entire staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making the whole experience feel like visiting a friend's place. The selection of non-alcoholic mocktails and retail bottles is truly exquisite it's rare to see this much variety and quality in one spot. I had the Epic Breakfast Sandwich, and it lived up to the name; it was absolutely incredible and so tasty. I also tried the seasonal Earl Grey Latte, which was delicious and perfectly balanced. I ended up grabbing a bottle of Woody NA sparkling wine to take home. I'm so excited to try it, especially knowing it's sustainably farmed by a winemaker in Healdsburg. This is a must-visit for anyone looking for a premium, intentional NA experience. I can't wait to go back!

    Beef sandwich and chips.
    Eric A.

    4/5 for this place because their roast beef sandwich is the best, I only wish the side condiment was something more than chips or a choice but if chips I wish there were a dip or something. Service is generally good and fast but it's not memorable. I think the place is small but it has equal seating outside. The price is a little steep but maybe it's just SF prices.

    Gluten free bread Epic Breakfast Sandwich and regular Epic Breakfast Sandwich on everything bagel

    Late breakfast on a Wednesday with kids in tow. They are donut muffins and we got the Epic Breakfast Sandwich. I ordered mine on gluten free bread, no chef sauce (which might not be gf?) Everything was great. Laid back atmosphere, good service, seating for about 15 inside and more outside.

    Ocean Beach cafe is a very cool cafe and NA bar. They have a variety of NA beers/wines, probably the most curated selection of hot sauces I've ever seen to compliment your food, and good vibes. They have ample indoor seating as well as outdoor seating in a parklet. It felt like a relaxing spot. We got the spicy chicken sandwich with chips and I grabbed the garlic parm hot sauce from the communal hot sauce bar to add to the side. The sandwich was solid and very packed! It was pretty big and I actually took half to-go. It is a little pricey but that just might be the economy. I recommend stopping by for food and drinks especially after a beach a day!

    Roast beef sandwich
    Brian G.

    Stopped by here after a workout to refuel. Roast beef sandwich: B- The roast beef was quite good, super tender and easy to bite through. The rest of the sandwich components were just alright. Would have liked a different bread and to be toasted. Also they serve it with a side of kettle potato chips. Service was super fast and they have a pretty good selection of drinks.

    We came to Ocean Beach Cafe after walking around the beach. It took a while to place the order because there was a long line. There were only a few tables inside, but outside seating was available. It was a bit hot inside the cafe since it was packed. I ordered the Draft Cold Coffee. The coffee was good and strong. It took a while to receive my order because the staff was busy. Overall, we enjoyed our visit to Ocean Beach Cafe. It has fun vibes and offers good drinks.

    This is a great location for breakfast and coffee right next to the beach. The breakfast sandwich was so good and the bread pudding was amazing! There is outdoor patio seating and the line moves pretty quickly.

    Cute little place, no ocean view, though, as they advertise/allude to on their IG page. We were bummed that there was no actual bar to sit at since it's marketed as SF's "Only NA Bar" and it was a little cluttered inside. BUT, with the critiques out of the way, I'm happy to report that the food was tasty and the drinks were even better! The staff were very friendly, and made the food and drinks right in front of us. Overall, I'll be back, especially since there's not a whole lot of Kava bars around!

    Epic Breakfast Bagel Sandwich / Iced Latte
    Darya M.

    Stumbled upon Ocean Beach Cafe because we wanted to use the Blackbird app. My friend got an iced matcha latte and I ordered a regular latte. Unfortunately, the app didn't work on the cafe's side, so we weren't able to get our drinks free like it was supposed to. We mentioned it to the staff, but they just said they've been having issues with the app. A little disappointing, especially since we didn't realize until after we got our drinks. As for the drinks--the iced matcha was super sweet, but my iced latte was solid. The real winner though? The Epic Breakfast Bagel Sandwich. WOW. Probably the best breakfast bagel sandwich I've had in a long time. Totally worth coming back just for that alone. The cafe itself is adorable, with a cozy vibe and an amazing location just a short walk from both Ocean Beach and Golden Gate Park. Bonus: they've got a huge selection of different non-alcoholic drinks, which is super unique. Overall, I'd come back for the food, especially that bagel sandwich.

    Such a cute little spot and great to grab a coffee or bite to eat for the beach. Staff were nice too!

    love this place so much!!! grabbed two of the breakfast bagel sandwiches before heading to the beach, and they were super filling and hearty. service was pretty quick and they have free water and WiFi while you wait. I love looking at their selection of local goods, including non alcoholic drinks and wines!

    Cantaloupe size Epic breakfast sandwich
    Megan H.

    I really love this place. It's the perfect little beach cafe. Lovely outdoor seating, 1 block off the beach. The coffee is delicious the people are friendly and the Epic breakfast sandwich is the best!! It's huge! It turns into a sloppy mess. Be sure to request they cut it in half. HUGE awesome amazing part of this location is a phenomenal variety of non-alcoholic and alternative social drinks. Definitely worth a stop in to peruse!!

    Kana lineup!

    This unique place is located right near Golden Gate Park with adequate parking limited to 30…read moreminutes. So eat fast. Haha no the food here needs to be savored. There is a nice selection off the main menu for Happy Hour 4-6pm. Providing an opportunity to sample one or more of the menu items as an appetizer. I chose the mussels with garlic bread, as good ones are not found easily. The portion was quite ample, and the sauce I dipped my nice crunchy garlic bread in was very flavorful, warm and delicious. I also tried the plantains which were cooked perfectly; not too mushy with a perfect char, and the sweet onions on top were also tasty. Paired with a very tangy dipping sauce. All the flavors came together well. My husband ordered the Cantina burger which he enjoyed down to the last bite. Our daughter also sampled off the smaller menu with Lomo Empanadas and the Chicharron de Pollo which she reported were both very nicely prepared. Will, our server gave us excellent recommendations which we availed ourselves of. The bill for 4 items plus the burger, a side of rice, and a ginger beer came to just under seventy dollars, which was a reasonable price. I would definitely give the food five stars, and the restaurant four as it's a long and lengthy bar with a few tables for two. The majority of the seating is in the back with two flat screens and an open kitchen. I can imagine how loud this place can get. We went at the perfect time: not a lot of customers so we received excellent individualized service from Will. I would hope to be able to return next time we visit GG Park and sample some more menu items like the Peruvian Paella which sounded very promising.
