Iced Matcha and Spenc
John B.

Second matcha of my life with my good friend Spencer. Pretty great stuff - probably not worth the wait if there is one though.

Really great coffee shop in Russian Hill! I love the espresso tonic here which is bright and citrusy, perfect for a warm day! It is my go-to drink but they have a great selection of beans and specialty coffees as well. I have to come back to try their competition cappuccino with their special housemade milk. It's dine-in only so will need to come during a less busy time but there are a good number of tables and seats for a coffee shop in a busy part of downtown.

Back here again It was 2019 and now 2025 Saint Frank Cafe Chai latte nice..Polk St SF

Cold brew
Chris R.

We came on an early Saturday afternoon and it was packed. The line moved quickly though. The employees were chill and joked with us a bit. It was nice. I got the cold brew which came out immediately and my wife got the oat milk latte. She said she enjoyed her drink. The cold brew was good. Strong and smooth. I didn't get to try their pastries or pour overs, but I'd come back to try those items. Overall a solid coffee shop. Also the coffee shop has a minimalist aesthetic which I really liked!

Menu

Was here this afternoon for a quick coffee date. Line wasn't too long and ordering went smooth. There was seating inside and out, we nabbed a seat when someone left with their computer. The coffee was nice and strong like I like it. The only reason I didn't give a 5 star was the girl I asked for location of milk gave me a kind of cold response like I should know...this was my first time here so I genuinely needed the info. I'd return again.

Saint Frank is solid, but more of a "stop by if I'm already in the area" kind of spot. The coffee's good, just on the pricier side for a cup. There's usually a line too, so be ready to wait a bit. Nice quality overall, just not somewhere I'd go out of my way for.

Don't feed the pigeons in SF

I had someone ask me why my reviews are mostly in SF . Then I hear all these references about people drawing different city lines on where the Bay Area starts and where it ends in person and on social media. I definitely know where the city and county lines of San Francisco starts and ends. The term the Bay is a generic term to really mean any other place other than San Francisco. Why would someone replace the Bay to mean San Francisco? One thing that also causes debate among new and native residents is the nicknames for San Francisco. Going to public school in San Francisco it was Frisco and the Sco. Growing up in the Mission it was San Fran and San Pancho. In other parts of the city you will hear St.Francis. These to me were short cuts and only shortcuts I will say is in SF ( not San Fernando). There is another San Francisco nickname which serves great coffee and it's called Saint Frank. On a Winter stroll on Polk street in Russian Hill there is a coffee place which is growing around San Francisco and it's called Saint Frank. There is outside seating along with seating inside. They have flakey croissants like most coffee places in SF. I had to try their Matcha Latte. It was smooth but not too sweet. It was so tasty with no shortcuts . There are multiple locations for Saint Frank around San Francisco. A good place to wake up for 2026 and what I still call San Francisco. Peet's , Starbucks and Philz started on the "West Coast " Saint Francis makes its own coffee "roast" and San Francisco nicknames is all the rage on different "social media post " San Francisco over the decades are mentioned in movies , television and social media "commercial "different nicknames for San Francisco has become "controversial"but you ask anyone from all around the USA and the world saying San Francisco is "universal"

Interior of the shop.

Excellent coffees and teas, made with the highest quality. So glad we came here after hearing about Saint Frank. They have a variety of single source origin coffees to choose from. The staff was very helpful and welcoming. I prefer dark roast coffee and the staff suggested the coffee bean that turned out to be perfect and not bitter. They take great care and use special equipment to prepare coffees and teas. My companion had one of the teas which is Song Tea, a high quality and fragrant one that brings back memories of the tea my mother favored while I was growing up. Reasonable prices. Nice clean shop with some tables and a clean restroom. Thank you for a good experience.

Hot chocolate
Emily F.

I met friends here but don't drink coffee so ordered a hot chocolate. It was rich and creamy and delicious. It's nice inside and glad they have some spots to sit. It was pretty full and busy the entire time even on a weekday mid morning. Staff was great. Service was a bit slow.

Maple pine latte
Neha D.

The seasonal maple pine latte is a must try! Equally balanced of maple and pine flavors it is such a treat whether you get it hot or cold. One of my favorite seasonal lattes in SF

Competition-Style Cappucino
Alex M.

Sooo good. Amy the barista gave me an exquisite tour of the Saint Frank menu. I had an espresso tonic (quite good) and then I had a decaf version of their "competition style cappucino". SOOOO good. I live in Sacramento but I will definitely be comin back for some more Saint Frank.

Inside
Lora B.

Spot felt undersold for what it delivered. Cold brew was so smooth and delicious. The pine and male latte was refreshing with unique flavors that weren't overpowering. Staff worked well together to keep things moving quickly. I appreciate that when buying beans our cold brew was free- definitely makes me feel like they appreciate the business and have some pride in their product.

Came on a Sunday morning and there was a line until crunch fitness. Waited around 15 minutes to order. The inside was very nice and well lit. There is not much seating though, but there is also some outdoor seating. They do not have any flavored syrup, but I ordered an iced latte with simply syrup. The latte itself was very good! The espresso was bold and just the right flavor. This will probably become my new go to coffee spot!

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!
