Always have a great experience at Saint Frank. The coffee is consistently good and it's one of those spots I know I can come back to and get a solid cup every time. Right now, I'm especially in love with the orange latte. It's such a good combination and has quickly become my current favorite drink here. The vibe is also great and has lots of tables and natural lighting to make it your office of the day. Overall, consistently great coffee and definitely try the orange latte if you haven't already. read more

Loved my first visit to Saint Frank Coffee! Very friendly staff and provided me with a great rec to try their seasonal item - Orange Cream Latte with their house made almond macadamia milk. Perfectly sweet and flavor of the orange cream. The coffee wasn't acidic at all either. The milk was sooo good! Would definitely come back and try their other drinks. Lots of space to sit and meet with friends! read more

Saint Frank Coffee - Orange cream latte (iced) - Seasonal - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Francisco, California

The space is beautiful, workers are friendly but there are a few things that would justify their price. I am a fan of their sister bakery Juniper and understand that they get deliveries every morning. But the pastries are flat without reheating. There's a large space they could add a toaster. And you are paying $$ for them! Their coffee is smooth and I've never had a bad cup. Simple menu (which I like) so if you wanted to venture out of the traditional cappuccino/ latte I would go somewhere else. It's lively inside, people working on their laptop, families chatting etc. Parking is difficult but the area is busy in general. read more

Nice interior but nothing else really stood out to me. Standard $7-8 drink, service is friendly. If there is a line, it kinda messes with the overall arrangement/spacing of the shop and can be irritating for those seated nearby. If you do get space, its a nice spot to sit down for a chat but there are plenty of those in SF. read more

Coffee here is strong!! Bustling bright cafe with workspaces and lots of seats, but it was packed on a weekend. pastries are in the display cases, employee recommend their drinks and were friendly. Swag, beans, and kitchen appliances are available for purchase. Free coffee when you buy a bag of beans! Order: Latte with macadamia milk: solid drink with a tartness in the milk, creaminess did not balance with the coffee. There is self serve syruo Chocolate espresso cookie: crunchy, dark chocolate flavor that was not too bitter. great for a small pick me up. read more

Had such a good experience here! A beautiful open space with plenty of seating, perfect spot for working (tho they only have wifi during the weekdays). Their coffee was strong and delicious, staff very friendly. Will definitely be a regular here. They source their pastries from Juniper bakery! Known for their award winning croissants and black sesame kouign amann. Only downside is I wish they heated up their pastries :/ Tried: - Orange latte is my favorite, subtle orange flavor - Cappuccino is STRONG - Oat milk latte is still strong but more balanced - Mushroom danish was good and v flaky, but wouldn't get again because it was cold read more

I've been in twice now, both times during the week to get some work done and thankfully I've always managed to get a seat + table! (This place will get busy, a lot of people visiting). Pretty simple menu but very fancy coffee. I'm pretty simple when it comes to my coffee order so I was a bit overwhelmed on what to get here. First time around I got an iced coffee and it was fine. Second time I got one of their signature or seasonal coffees, no cream or sugar and while strong, it was really smooth. Definitely good coffee beans used here. I've gotten their chocolate croissant and while perfectly flaky, the chocolate was just too dry and rough for me. Overall I do like this cafe to work out of (free wifi ONLY during the week). Good coffee options too so I definitely will be back to try more. read more

Visiting my sister in SF is always a treat! Especially when I get to try so many great cafes! Saint Frank is good coffee! I had a seasonal drink and it was so good not too sweet and the coffee was real smooth. I waited in a bit of a line but it was no problem for me because the staff was so attentive and kind and all were so calm, so it made me feel calm. No rushing just good coffee. Plenty of seating but oh boy still no room on a weekend. We did end up finding a table to enjoy our drinks ! read more

Super cute coffee shop with great vibes!! The coffee was actually super good but the minus here is that they don't write down your coffee orders! They got my order completely wrong and I had to bring it up once it was all made which was very awkward. They offered to remake it for me but there was a long line and they made it a bigger deal... but even with that would give it another shot. Also keep in mind they have limited milk options, whole fat, almond/cashew (made in house) and oat The pastries are just ok! read more

We may be 7x7 but we do not lack coffee houses. So I usually go to Saint Frank's Polk location, but now that they are in Inner Sunset, it's so convenient when visiting other places around here. SFC replaced what used to be Starbucks in this location. Gorgeous remodel that felt very spacious. I didn't find out until recently that their pastries are from their sister business, Juniper (also on Polk). Super excited as their pastries are very good. Enough to rival Tartine around the corner. Great drinks, delicious pastries, and beautiful location on Irving and 9th Ave. read more

How lovely, light, and airy this place looks in what used to be the dark tones of a Starbucks location for many, many years. I've been wanting to try Saint Frank Coffee for the longest time, but hadn't around to it at the other locations. Inner Sunset is close to home. A few weeks back, I walked by it on a late Saturday morning, and the line was out the door and it looked very crowded. I was not surprised, however, given the high praises of Saint Frank Coffee and this being their newest location. This past Monday, I came in on a whim at the end of the day sometime after 5pm (they close at 6pm daily). I was getting my steps in by strolling through Golden Gate Park and took the route that leads you to 9th Ave. There were plenty of people in there, but not crowded and not busy. I had no idea what I was ordering and I didn't know what to expect. The barista was super friendly, patient, and helpful. Here's what I ended up ordering: - honey lavender latte with oat milk (holy goodness!) - iced matcha latte for my daughter (the taste was more milky and creamy than matcha-y) - mushroom danish (I never wanted it to end, it was so yummy. It had the consistency of a savory croissant) I'm certain I'll be back, but for the coffee and danish - not the matcha- especially since it's so close to home. read more

Love the coffee here. I've tried a few of their pour overs, the coffee flight (single origin coffees served four ways), and the competition cappuccino - all were excellent. The black sesame kouign amann is great too. Service was friendly and efficient. There are plenty of seats inside, though it can get crowded on weekends. It's best to come early in the morning to skip the line. read more

Terrible service. Mid, overpriced coffee. Average pastries. Barista was cherry picking people in the middle and end of the line to work on, ignoring people who were in front and waiting longer. Racism? Sexism? Trying to pick up the pretty girls in the back? One girl even pointed out I was in front of her and the guy said it didn't matter. Pour over is automated. Batch brew isn't dialed. Espresso is mid. Walk over to Snowbird to support an actual neighborhood shop or drive over to The Coffee Movement or HiNRG for actually good coffee. Somewhere down the line, Saint Frank's grew too pretentious for the quality level they provide for the price point. If you want better specialty coffee, go somewhere else. If you want more fun drinks, go somewhere else. If you want cheap coffee, go somewhere else. If you want staff that isn't rude, go somewhere else. In 2026, Saint Frank has lost the plot and provides little value to the coffee scene in the city it's named after. read more

I passed by this place while riding the N Muni, and I immediately bookmarked it! I'm so glad I did. Saint Frank is a gorgeous, aesthetically-pleasing coffee shop located in the Inner Sunset. My friends and I grabbed pastries nearby and coffee at Saint Frank before heading to the De Young museum for the Monet exhibit. It was a perfect day! The coffee at Saint Frank is delicious. You can tell this is a coffee shop made for coffee lovers. There were lots of people hanging out at the indoor and outdoor tables, including several people working from the coffee shop. The service was quick and friendly, as well. I highly recommend grabbing a coffee here and enjoying it in the park! read more

Saint Frank Coffee has taken over the previous Starbucks spot at this Irving location and I think it's a definite upgrade. The coffee is really good; the interior design is modern; the lighting is brighter; staff is friendly. Really good spot to hang out. The lines can get long but move fairly quickly. Prices are consistent with other coffee shops. We tried both the Latte and the Mocha. Both drinks have excellent coffee. The mocha is not very sweet and they use mocha syrup instead of that power stuff. They also offer a few pour over options which I haven't yet tried. read more

Thank GOD there's a Saint Frank on the park side of town now! Saint Frank is one of the first coffee shops I ever tried in San Francisco and it certainly helped set the bar extremely high. So coffee - no question on the quality here. And Juniper pastries? YAY The space is absolutely gorgeous - on a sunny day it's especially airy and bright. I haven't come on a weekend yet, but on weekdays the vibe definitely feels more like a coworking space (fortunately or unfortunately, depending on what you're looking for), due to the presence of the long communal table in the front. The location is also perfect as it's right in the busy part of the Inner Sunset near lots of cute shops and restaurants. read more

San Francisco is expanding and it is in many areas of the city . You have lots of new places to go grab a drink and places to eat. It seems San Francisco also has business which have more than two locations that are homegrown. One place in the Inner Sunset serves their own roast of coffee and also offers the 2024 best awarded croissant in San Francisco via Juniper. It's located across the street of another similar homegrown chain of restaurants known as Super Duper Burgers. This place is also a namesake of San Francisco but in English and it's called Saint Frank. On a 2026 stroll on the Sunset Strip of San Francisco on Irving street you where the former Starbucks stood you can smell a different coffee roasting. Inside Saint Franks it's very spacious with lots of seating. I ordered their mocha and it was not too sweet. I also had ordered the traditional croissant. The croissants have been awarded the best in San Francisco and to me it was flakey like most in SF. The croissant was buttery and tasty. This is a good new spot in the Sunset Strip of San Francisco. Smell the roast of different coffee made in a different "fashion"people inside on their phones and laptops focus trying to avoid physical "distraction"some doing it for work and other working on their "passion" another business San Francisco "expansion" A new business in SF on "board "where coffee art is "poured "and a place which has Juniper croissants won the best San Francisco croissants "award" and in San Francisco business in the last year have " soared" read more

Pros: A lot of seating; visually appealing; friendly staff; the pastries look good (the plain croissant was flaky and buttery) Cons: The coffee was not made right. The pour over I got was not even lukewarm and the taste was very sour and you could not taste the notes or flavor profiles. I would still give this place a try and try another pour over or a different drink just bc the workers are so kind and I like the ambiance. read more

Don't skip the pastries! Saint Frank Coffee is a great option to get Juniper croisssant if you're unable to go to Juniper's. I can't comment about the coffee though as I'm a casual coffee drinker. Give me any cuppa as long as it's gotta lotta milk, I'm good. Just to set expectations, the wait time when I went on a busy Sunday morning was 25 minutes. What's nice is when you reach the front, you place your order and they prepare it right after. So that means no wait after placing an order, okay maybe just 3 minutes, 5 mins tops. I wouldn't stay here to do some work or chill, the space is loud. I'm just glad I got my Juniper fix! read more

The long-awaited opening of Saint Frank in the Inner Sunset is now here! Formerly Starbucks, the space has been transformed with a beautiful light wood interior that creates an airy feel, especially with the morning light shining in. There was a good amount of seating with a common big table, a long wall bench, and some smaller tables inside as well as some tables outside. The person taking our order was friendly and informative. Our iced latte and iced pumpkin spice latte were tasty, and I'd like to try the flight next time. What a great addition to the Inner Sunset neighborhood! read more

Beautiful, open, and spacious coffee shop. I came today at around 2pm. There was a line when I arrived but it moved pretty quick. I was in and out 10 minutes or under. I ordered an iced Maple Pine Latte, subbed House Almond Macadamia Milk (+$1.50). Flavor wise, this was okay. I think the pine just didn't fit my taste preference. Otherwise, the coffee was good. read more

So excited to see a Saint Frank here! I normally go to the MP location because it's outdoors and cyclist friendly. This new location has high ceilings and a lot of seating inside. The line was huge but it moved pretty quickly. Pumpkin Spice Latte - one of my favorite PSLs because it's not too sweet and it's a more suble pumpkin spice. The only thing that would've made it better was the temperature. The latte was barely lukewarm and I assume it's because they were rushing with the long lines. read more

Finally, a coffee & tea café with charm in the Inner Sunset! The blond wood and clean interior creates a lovely setting for a cup of Saint Frank's coffee or Song Tea! They carry pastries from their business Juniper (in Lower Nob Hill). The barista was very courteous and asked if I needed help deciding. Very nice service! I had some yummy Song tea and seemed that I was in good company with SO many locals in the café on a midday Friday! read more

St. Frank Coffee has completely refreshed the old Starbucks space, and it looks beautiful. Bright, white, and clean inside, with a bathroom that's actually pleasant to use. Morning lines are totally manageable and move fast. Solid pastry selection. Parking is metered all around, but it's free before 9am--pro tip. Tried an oat latte and the seasonal maple pine latte. Oat latte was great. The maple pine wasn't for me (tasted a bit like vegetable juice), but that's personal preference. Stick to the classics--maple oat latte or a drip coffee never disappoints. Gorgeous decor, amazing service. Worth the stop. read more

Beautiful Scandinavian style coffee shop, much needed in the inner sunset area! Large shop with high ceilings and plenty of seating, which does fill up fast! Of note, there are no outlets and there's no WiFi available on weekends if you're planning to work out of here. I'm giving this place 4/5 stars since it's a nice clean space with friendly staff but the coffee I got was more 3/5. I got a standard latte, which was not very rich in espresso. Might try a pour over for next time. read more

Heard about Saint Frank Coffee and saw they had a new location open up nearby to where we were hanging out. Even though I didn't need a second coffee of the day, I decided to give them a try. The shop is huge, with high ceilings and a bright atmosphere. Decided to order their hot mocha to go. Unfortunately it didn't really taste as rich as I thought it would be and tasted kind of watered down, despite the chocolate and oat milk used. Was disappointing since their reputation is high in serving quality coffee. Maybe it was just my order that day, but I'd be curious to try something else on the menu in the future. read more

I love the vibe and aesthetic of this new cafe space! My friend and I came on a Saturday afternoon and waited in line for 15 minutes before being able to order our drinks. My friend was able to get an extra drink because he purchased one of their coffee bean bags. Latte: A more bitter taste than I expected, the latte still had a clean favor with a nice foam decoration on top. It was simple but good! Chai Latte: It was warm, spicy, and sweet! The spices were flavorful without being too overwhelming, and it was a creamy and smooth comforting drink on a cold day! My friend sat by at one of their wooden tables for a couple of hours as we enjoyed our drinks. Because the place is new, there was a consistent line outside the door for the entire time we were there. I would recommend trying this place when the hype dies down! read more

I came by Saint Frank recently to specifically try their competition cappuccino which comes with a single origin espresso shot, their signature milk with a blend of whole milk and coconut milk, and the combined espresso. It's such a great experience trying both separate and then together. You can really taste how the milk balances out the bright espresso and creates a great creamy, rich cup of cappuccino. Definitely recommend that you try this if you want a unique coffee experience! read more

Ok I had to go in here because the Polk street store has the most delicious coffee. This place was a little disappointing. The coffee we ordered two cappuccino s was like warm no excuse.

I can't get over the ambiance and experience at Saint Frank on Irving. It's so light and airy and the decor very natural. Feels out of somewhere in Scandinavia. But of course the coffee is what matters most and it is quite lovely here. The staff is very friendly and will help guide you if you're not sure what you want. There's also this stellar vegan orange cake that I will get every time because it's that damn good. Coffee and pastries like this deserve to be savored on site, if you can! read more

Came here for a coffee meeting, and I must say this place gets busy. I arrived around 10:15, and the line was already out the door, with no seating available. Unlike other coffee shops, they make the specialty drink first before you pay for it, and if you want coffee, they use a machine to make it, which is why the line can move slowly. Impressed by the coffee a little, but by the time I paid and got it, the coffee was only lukewarm. The croissant was tasty and buttery, and the cookie was just ok. They give this place a tech vibe. I finally found a seat for that day. read more

The new Saint Frank is a really beautiful space! Large, airy, slightly more seating than other locations.

I was excited to check out Saint Frank after hearing great things about it, but was slightly disappointed by my experience with the drinks. The interior is beautiful, spacious with high ceilings and plenty of seating. This place is perfect to get some work done, but WiFi isn't offered on the weekends which is a bummer. Staff was also kind and made the drinks very quickly. There was a bit of a wait but they make the drinks as you order so you get your drinks right after you pay. [THE DRINKS] Maple pine latte: I was expecting a more maple, sweetened taste, but all I got was a VERY strong pine which surprised me. Unfortunately not a big fan of the woodsy taste so this was a miss. Mocha: Contrary to the maple pine latte, the chocolate taste in this drink was minimal and overall tasted more like a regular latte. I would've loved to get a stronger chocolate taste for this one. Overall, love the atmosphere but the drinks were not for me. Might try a regular latte next time if I can get over my initial impression of the maple pine latte first! read more
