    3/30/25 Oatmilk latte, one for the ride home
    Jennifer W.

    3/30/25 This was recommended by the kind lady at the Library (San Francisco Botanical Garden), about a 3-5 minute walk from there. It's cute, small with an indoor & outdoor seating amidst the bustling street where the metro passes by. The young lady took our order & struck up a quick & genuine conversation about our amazing 5 hour trip to buy a few woks from Chinatown. By the time we had a few blinks, a few shots, Hubby's oat milks latte was gone! It was hot & pretty good. Chill & easy going vibe, fairly quiet as patrons sat, drank & chatted. Sat by the street & composed a few post cards. You can bring your pup n sit outside whilst enjoying your beverage & company. Neat place, wish I could've stayed a little longer & savor it in a ceramic mug.

    Very good muy bueno, the Ambience, Food and Service. I like it a lot the type of coffee they saved at this place

    Solid coffee here. Latte is really smooth. Don't forget to also try their cold Vietnamese coffee which I don't see often at other coffee shops.

    This was more of a to go coffee spot. There are a couple small tables inside, but the park isn't too far off to go enjoy your coffee. I appreciate a shop that also sells coffee beans. The person at the register was really friendly. Unfortunately, I was in a rush, and I didn't realize my order was wrong. From what I did have it was okay, but it's a tough spot to be in because there are nearby shops they are competing with. Overall my experience was okay. Thank you!

    Stopped into The Beanery for a coffee. They have a second location, surprisingly, a few blocks away. We dropped in on a Saturday morning (9:30am). There was a small queue but the line moved quickly. They grind and sell their own coffee beans. - Latte ($4.95 USD double) with oat milk ($0.80 USD) - smooth but nothing to distinguish their beans from other coffee joints.

    Cute coffee shop with friendly service. Limited inside seating but also a few tables outside.

    The bf and I were in the area and wanted coffee from both Snowbird and this place. Since we were coming from UCSF, we went to Snowbird and Arizmendi before ending our walk here. We ordered an oat milk latte. We took notice that not only does this place charges extra for dairy alternative but they also charge extra for half n half too?? I was holding a cup from Snowbird and a bag of bread from Arizmendi. The cashier immediately and in a really rude tone told me I couldn't be inside with outside food. I get that places don't want people grabbing stuff from other shops and then taking up tables at their place, but we also bought drinks from Beanery too, so I don't see what the problem was. We are paying customers. We should have just canceled our order right then and there and left. That lady was excessively mean!! Sheesh!!! Does this place expect people to not patronize other shops along this street? We were making our rounds up and down the street so we had a bunch of stuff accumulated with us. We shook off the super rude vibes and I went to wait outside with my outside food. My bf grabbed our Beanery drinks and we grabbed a table outside. There were plenty of tables. After all, this was late Thursday afternoon, totally after the lunch rush. Sometime later, that same lady was off shift and she yelled at us as she passed by us saying, "I thought I told you weren't allowed here with outside food!!" And proceeded to the crosswalk. Honestly? Was that necessary? If The Beanery had a 0 tolerance for any outside food regardless of how much we purchased from their business, then say so politely. There was no reason to talk to us like we kicked her child or something. This lady was extremely rude and livid towards us for no good reason. I hope whoever is in charge of The Beanery has a word with her about her attitude. The coffee here was only ok, oat milk totally scalded and not worth the extra 60 cents. The Beanery also didn't have any noteworthy pastries or menu items we were interested in purchasing. We definitely won't be back. I hope that lady wakes up on the better side of her bed in days to come. She's definitely not going entice people to come back.

    Iced caramel latte, choco croissant

    I tried the beanery a couple months ago and it's been one of my go-to spots to study and get coffee in the sunset! I get their iced caramel lattes, which is a hit or miss depending on the day, sometimes it's good but sometimes I feel like I'm just drinking a sugary cup of milk. Their pastry's on the other hand are always consistent and fresh. I highly recommend their raisin buns, morning buns, and croissants. The only downside is that they don't warm them up. The inside is small but it's more of a to go place so there's almost always seating available (inside and outside). The staff here are very blunt and straight to the point, so you're most likely not gonna get your typical friendly cafe service lol. But the clientele (mostly locals who live in the neighborhood) are all so nice, and it's almost impossible not to strike up a conversation and meet someone new while while you're there!

    Very simple neighborhood coffee shop! I got an iced latte and it was delicious! Not too sweet, but the coffee flavor was there. My friends got the Vietnamese iced coffee and said it was good but pretty sweet. The cup is a decent size and definitely lasted me throughout the day. It's a pretty small place so there's very limited seating, but if there was more space I would definitely consider coming here to study or get some work done. Overall, If I was in the area, I'd come back no doubt, but probably wouldn't go out of my way for it.

Just a quiet marble table, a tiny vase with two yellow flowers, and a slice of matcha crepe cake that makes you forget what you were stressed about. I came in on a weekday afternoon and ordered the matcha crepe cake and a passion fruit refresher. The cake is the kind that looks almost too precise to eat. Dozens of paper thin layers stacked with the kind of patience most people reserve for things that actually matter. The matcha flavor is real, not the green tea powder imposter you get everywhere else. The drinks are thoughtful too. Not sweet for the sake of being sweet. You can tell someone actually tasted these before putting them on the menu. The space itself earns its own mention. Marble counters, natural light pouring in from the street, good music at a volume that lets you actually have a conversation. It feels like someone designed it for the experience, not the Instagram photo, which ironically makes it very photogenic. 4.7 stars on Yelp with nearly 300 reviews and I understand every single one of them. If you are in the Inner Sunset and you pass this place without stopping, that is on you.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
