Whyyy is this place so far from me?? I came here on the weekend to get my hands on their famous bagels, and now I'm hooked. From the very first bite, I knew I had found the IT bagel spot in the city. I ordered one pumpernickel and one poppyseed. The staff member helping me was super efficient and scooped up my bagels in a flash. She asked me if I wanted any cream cheese. I dubiously asked if they had any vegan cream cheese fully expecting the answer to be no, as I didn't see it listed on the menu, but she confirmed instantly that they do offer vegan scallion cream cheese and added a compostable tub of it to my order. She also directed me to the canister of compostable knives available for takeout. I was in and out quicker than I expected. While waiting for the bus, I used the plastic knife I picked up to slice one of the bagels and slather on some of the vegan scallion cream cheese. I was impressed by how glossy the bagels appeared on the outside but how soft they are in the inside. The vegan scallion cream cheese really elevated the bagel to the next level. Idk what they put in it, but it's crack. It doesn't taste anything like the original Kite Hill spread I've gotten elsewhere. Suffice it to say, I think The Laundromat has ruined me for bagels and good cream cheese elsewhere.
Arrived right before 9am opening on Sunday morning, and there's already a 20-30 person line. Took about 15-20 min to get in from there. Each bagel is 3$, and cream cheese tubs are 6-9$ each with both sweet/savory options (they dont offer smears) I got the salt, everything egg, everything pumpernickel, and cinnamon raisin. the texture is amazing on these bagels, however I wish the cinnamon raisin had more raisins/cinnamon flavor! all of their cream cheese spreads were whipped light, not salty, and especially the strawberry flavor was so good.
We heard about the bagels in the morning but was interested with the pizza for dinner. We heard a lot of folks saying it's great. The pizza was indeed delicious, love the spicy peppers and delicious. The crispy brussels, between the crunchiness, the flavor and the goat cheese-must order appetizer. We sat at the bar, and they were very attentive. The ambiance felt like a bar, and they have local beer from Oakland brewery. Must go!
Such a great place to get dinner with friends! Not only was the pizza delicious but the vibe was incredibly cool. The wait on a Wednesday evening was kind of long but doesn't feel too bad when you're with good company. My friend and I waited about an hour around 6:30. The mushroom pizza was very flavorful. The corners and sides were crunchy, it was topped with lots of cheese and mushrooms. It was the perfect amount for 2 people. We also got the olive oil cake which came with a dollop of what I think is whipped cream cheese. It had a strong olive oil flavor, extremely moist and delicious. We were seated at the bar and although it was a little tight, it was nice to be able to look around the decorated area behind the bar. Tons of vinyls and quirky decor. Servers were also very attentive and friendly. I will definitely be returning to try other menu items!
The service was great. The atmosphere was perfect for a night out with friends. We were seated on the outside cub patio. It's well built and toasty. The pizza was amazing. The margarita was the overall winner
I love that SF has a tear and dip bagel spot! The line goes quick because the menu is simple. Also there's an efficient assembly line of just two people lol. There's a variety of bagels from plain, sesame, poppy, everything, egg everything, pumpernickel, pumpernickel everything, and others I'm forgetting. Each bagel is $3. Dips were $6-10 and it came in a pretty sizeable tub. I really liked the pumpernickel! It had the rougher texture of a classic bagel and the soft sweet taste in the dough. Paired it with the scallion dip yum. The dip consistency was perfect!
The Laundromat does a service to San Francisco, providing a bouncy rip and dip style bagel to a city not quite known for this breakfast item. This is my second time at The Laundromat, and it did not disappoint. I haven't come yet for their dinner service (which I definitely will one day), but I instead came in the morning for their bagels. I came during opening around 8 AM, and there was no line and a bountiful amount of bagels. I decided to order an egg everything bagel for $3, alongside a Calabrian chili cream cheese for $7. I don't think I've seen an egg everything bagel before, so I knew I had to get it the first time, and the second time was no exception. I want to call out that this spot in the morning is definitely a grab and go. When you first enter, they have racks of their bagels out and you will need to let their workers know how many bagels you want of each and which ones, so they can bag them up for you. You will then go to the counter to pay and order any house-made cream cheeses there. The vibes are very chill and relaxed. I really love these bagels because of their fluffy interior but nice bite. When paired with their cream cheeses, it makes such a balanced combination. The calabrian chili has a very small hint of spice, but it's whipped to perfection! Overall, I have yet to experience another standout bagel spot like this in the city and will continue to come here!
OK so I've been dying to come here for years but haven't because the line has intimidated me. I finally went, and it was SO delicious! We got the caesar salad and sausage & pepper pizza. The caesar salad might have been the best one i've ever had - it had lots of parmesan and these cheese crunchies. The pizza was incredible - there was a pepper aioli drizzled over the top. I am so excited to come back and try other pizzas and the burger, although, it will be hard for me not to order the same thing. The only issue with this place is that it is so popular that there's always a wait/line. It was about an hour and a half wait if you wanted to be seated at an actual table or you can stand in line to sit at the bar (which can be inside or outside). We stood in line for the bar, and it took maybe 30 mins?? Honestly, it could be way worse so don't be intimidated by the line. The inside is a vibe and the outdoor area is heated and very peaceful.
I've had their bagels and they were comparable to really good, chewy NY bagels. So we had high expectations for their Detroit pizza and double cheese burgers. We waited in line for about 50 minutes and landed on bar seating. Service was efficient and accommodating. * * * O U R P I C K S * * * DOUBLE PATTY, DOUBLE CHEESE ~ shrettuce, pickles, onions and French-style potato salad. This was juicy, but it was missing tomatoes and more lettuce and onions. Just felt heavy and greasy, because it was double meat and double cheese. It needed some freshness from extra vegetables to make it cleaner tasting. I tasted the pickles in between the patties, but it still didn't cut the greasiness. The buns were a bit too soft and they didn't seem toasted, so while holding it, it became smooshed. Potato salad was ok, though I'd probably prefer fries with ketchup. It's half-cut roaster potatoes with a bland dressing, because the potatoes are big pieces. If they were cut smaller, you'll taste the dressing more than just potatoes. 3.5/5 SAUSAGE AND PEPPERS PIZZA ~ fennel sausages, Jimmy Nardello pepper cream, pearl peppers, mozzarella, & red sauce. This was ok. Crust was crispy, but the pizza bread was more dense than we would have liked. The Jimmy Nardello pepper cream sauce on top was heavy and it was too saucy for us. Mozzarella had a good cheese pull and was good. But like the burger, it felt heavy. Needed more acidity to balance and lighten the load. 3.5/5 I guess on Wednesday nights, people don't mind waiting an hour for the burgers. If it had sliced tomatoes and more lettuce, it would have been much better. But for $15, they should have the essentials to make a good burger. As for the pizza, maybe we chose the wrong one for us. We left disappointed. In my opinion, it's overhyped for 1hr+ wait.
Known best for their pizzas for dinner and burger nights, the Laundromat has a surprisingly strong bagel selection for breakfast. We just happened to be on our way to Constance Matcha down the street, and saw the HUGE rack of bagels standing front and center at the Laundromat as we walked by. I've tried a lot of bagels in this life from NYC and locally, so hey.. why not? I picked up a pair of their poppyseed bagels which surprised me.. I say are amazingly good.. perfect somewhat dense yet chewy texture once you get beyond the perfectly slightly crisp outer shell that breaks away at the slightest provocation. This is a THICK bagel with a beautiful consistency. The second bagel I tried two days later, and it was still tender at first bite. They also had their share of six different cream cheeses, but I skipped those to stay somewhat healthy.. I would have loved a small serving of the cream cheese, but the tubs were enough for at least six bagels if doled out generously - way too much cheese from my two bagels. Whatever you choose, I found the service here to be super friendly cheery and welcoming - like they know you already! =) Since this first visit, I've come back a couple times for the bagels here already! Still gotta try their pizza too. Surprisingly good bagels!
came in with a friend for smashburger wednesday and got the #1 double patty plus the sausage and pepper pizza. showed up right at 5 for first seating and got sat at the bar. the space is genuinely cute and open - really nice vibes, not something you see everyday in sf, especially not in this neighborhood. the smashburger was delicious and really well balanced, the sauce and pickles doing a lot of the work. i'm lactose intolerant so i had them pull the cheese and it still held up on its own. solid 8/10!! my friend loved hers too & also gave it the same ranking. the pizza was just okay for me, but i think that's a me problem bc i don't think i'm a detroit style person... still worth trying though!! will be back for the burger, and want to check out their bagels as well! the neighborhood is pretty out of the way for me, but i'd make the trip again to take a friend for their first time, or for another sneaky early wed night dinner.
*Dinner/pizza review only* Arrived right at dinner opening at 5pm and my party of 4 was seated right away on the outdoor patio. Service was fantastic, they checked in often and were very friendly and fast. We shared the laundromat little gem caesar salad, crispy brussels sprouts, and pizza alla vodka margherita. The caesar salad was simple yet delicious and fresh. The crispy brussels were great. I'm not a huge goat cheese fan but it worked really with the brussels sprouts and the apple cider reduction that added sweetness to it. Pizza alla vodka margherita was wonderful. Saucy, flavorful, and cheesy. Would come back to try their bagels and burgers!
Came on a Wed night for the smashburger and wow it didn't disappoint! I wouldn't say I'm much of a burger fan but heard I had to try the smashburger here so we came around 6pm and waited ~45 min for a table for 4. They call you when the table is ready so we were free to walk around. For the smashburgers, they have a beef and a vegetarian patty version, both with 2 patties, double cheese, pickles, and onion. No substitutions but trust me we all got the og burger and it was delicious. Loved the crispy patties with a nice charred edge. I think this may have changed my mind about smashburgers entirely, it was that good. We also got the crispy brussel sprouts to share (on a bed of goat cheese for extra flavor) and the mushroom pizza. I liked the variety of mushrooms they use which gave the pizza a nice earthiness. I'm not a huge fan of white pizzas though so I thought it could have used an extra boost of flavor but for detroit style thicker crust pizza, this was solid.
After a Google Maps mishap landed me at an actual laundromat, I finally made it to The Laundromat! My friend and I met up around 5:30 PM to try to beat the dinnertime rush, but there was already a wait for a table. The wait wasn't too bad - we killed time by walking around the neighborhood - and we were finally seated around 6 PM. We couldn't decide on what to order so went with our server's recommendation of the mushroom pizza, and we split the kale salad to round out the meal. The kale salad was tossed with so much dressing that it resembled more of a slaw than a salad. The pizza came out next, and this was the star of the show. I've had mushroom pizza before, but nothing quite compares to The Laundromat's thick yet crispy sourdough-like crust topped with gooey cheese and buttery chanterelles. A couple of slices was more than enough for me, but the pizza reheated nicely the next day. Ambiance-wise, my friend and I were seated far apart from each other at a large table, and the restaurant was really noisy on top of that, so we had a difficult time hearing each other during our dinner conversation. Overall, though, I really enjoyed The Laundromat's pizza and would come back to try the other varieties or swing by earlier in the day for their popular bagels. read more
Came for bagels & some Shmear mid day. Would def go back for evening vibes. We got 6 bagels & all but my poppy were steamy hot. We also got some Calabrian chili cream cheese for our rip and dips suggested by the kind employee. We grabbed a seat on a bench outside since the eating area was not open during the day. Bagels were top and would love to try the scallion cream cheese too! They have adorable swag. Definitely will go back for some and for the cute greeting cards as well. read more

So I went there with business in mind (sales) but I had to try some bagels once I saw them. I started with an egg everything bagel I toasted at home with their plain cream cheese and I believe it was the best bagel I've had. My family is from NY so I may had had some good bagels in NY when I was young but the bagels at The Laundromat are the best. I tried a Salt bagel today oh boy amazing it was Now let's talk about the staff!!! Yesterday I was greeted by a young man who gave my a compliment on my outfit so nice. A couple of weeks ago I spoke with a different guy who was also incredibly friendly. I am a huge fan and I guess I need to try the pizza next read more

New to the neighborhood and still pretty new to San Francisco, we kept hearing about burger night at The Laundromat, so we decided to check it out. We originally put our name on the list and were quoted about a 1.5 hour wait, but we hopped in the bar line and ended up seated within about 15 minutes. The bar area was a little tight and could've used a little more awareness from guests scooting down, but the staff was friendly, attentive, and kept things moving. The cocktails and wine selection were both solid, and the vinyl spinning in the background gave the place a great atmosphere. From a food standpoint, the burger has the bones of being an excellent burger. The bun was well chosen, the patties were cooked properly with a good crust, and the combination of lettuce, onions, pickles, special sauce, and American cheese worked really well together without trying too hard. Overall the balance was there. My only critique was the seasoning. Mine was very heavy handed with the salt, and after trying my partner's burger too, both leaned saltier than they needed to. The potato salad was good and honestly could've used a little more seasoning, We finished with a cannoli that was excellent. Not overly sweet, with a great crispy shell and nice balance to the filling. On my quest to find the best burger in San Francisco, I'm not sure this one is quite in contention yet, but there's definitely potential here and enough positives that I'd come back and give it another shot. read more

The Laundromat is a charming, cozy spot with mismatched decor, 10/10 food, but unfortunately rushed service. The crispy Brussels were delicious. The tartness of the apple cider vinegar cut through the richness of the goat cheese perfectly. The pepperoni pizza had the ideal balance between crispy and moist, and the olive oil cake was a fantastic way to end the meal. Sadly, the whole dining experience felt extremely rushed. We were still mid-meal when our waiter asked to box up our food. At one point, my friend was mid-bite into her pizza when the server collected her plate and napkin. It felt like they were more focus ed on turning over tables than creating a relaxed dining experience. Hoping the service is better if we choose to return. read more
I can't believe I've never tried the laundromat in all my years in San Francisco but I finally got the chance to you over the weekend and I must say that it's a bit overhyped. There was a small line when I went in the morning around 10 but it moved pretty quickly, and I got a few different bagels to sample including pumpernickel and everything bagels. The spread was really fantastic. I got the Calabrian chili one end it had a great kick. will still being super smooth to spread. The look and feel of both the bagels and spread reminds me of pop bagels in New York but the flavor and texture of the bagels is a little less good. (This one felt more tough to chew through/split). I'm glad this neighborhood has a bagels spot, though I prefer Boichik and Bones Bagels over this one personally. The staff was friendly and the store is small but clean! read more

Bagels in the morning, pizza in the evening sounds like my kind of diet, but it's actually The Laundromat's offerings. I've yet to try their dinner menu but my friend & I came in recently to try their rip & dip bagels. As the name suggests, the bagel is served whole & untoasted for each hand-torn piece to be dunked into a container of cream cheese. My Everything bagel ($3) was chewy & a bit sticky from being properly coated. It paired well with their scallion cream cheese ($7). Take-out only, but there are benches outside if you can snag a spot. Our cashier was distracted & we felt rushed in ordering. Here's hoping for better service if we come in for pizza one evening. read more

Really cute pizza spot on Balboa! From a distance, I was like, "Is this a popular laundry hour or something?" until I saw the subtext advertising their pizza and bagels underneath. Came on a Saturday around 6PM and had a pretty short 30-40 minute wait, in which we got some boba from Purple Kow nearby. Our group of 7 was pretty hungry so we ordered five pizzas (and some brussels sprouts) which was way too much. Brussels were really good, goat cheese and balsamic is a tried and true combo. Nice crisp on the surface. Sausage pizza was definitely my favorite, really rich and acidic tomato sauce that paired with the sweet drop peppers. Perfectly balanced bites all around. Really nice crust. The rest of the pizzas were pretty good, but I felt like lacking that something special (although the crust on all of them were great). The maitake in the mushroom pizza was great, but I felt like it was somewhat overpowered by the cheese (of which there was a LOT). The vodka sauce margherita didn't lean strongly enough into the vodka sauce for me, and tasted more like just a red sauce with some cream. The pepperoni was a solid pepperoni slice, but I think that was all. Would definitely come back (and maybe try the broccoli one)! read more
Ambiance 5/5, service 4.5/5, food 4/5 I really like the outdoor seating, as well as the open air bar inside. We got two canned beers (I got a tropical sour) and a pizza to go to sit on the bench outside since the wait for a table was so long. We got the mushroom pizza and shared it between two people. Depending on how hungry you are it could probably feed 3 people. Lots of cheese and digestively dangerous for that reason. I would love to go back and try a smash burger on a different night. The pizza is Detroit style with flakey but thick crust. This place is super popular so much so that at 8pm on a Friday there was a 20 min wait to be seated. If getting takeout, I recommend ordering in advance. read more
Cozy atmosphere with bar vibes and some of the best pizzas in SF! Staff were very chill and kind. Don't forget to try both the house-made ranch and the truffle honey. These were absolutely worth the charge for enhancing the pizza flavor and texture profile. Bring your next date here or your next catch-up with the homies! 5/5 - Sausage and Peppers - The star of the show of the 3 pizzas we got. The crunch from the bake was perfect, and it was well complemented with the pepper and basil toppings. Dip this in the truffle honey for an absurdly heavenly experience. Can't recommend this pizza enough. 4/5 - Pizza Alla Vodka Margherita - This was also a fantastic pizza that gave a contrast in texture profile from the Sausage and Peppers pizza. If you love margherita pizza, you'll get your fix here. Order this as a second pizza if you are unable to decide! Also, dip this in the house-made ranch for another heavenly experience. 3.5/5 - Classic Pepperoni - One of the better pepperoni pizzas I have had. Though I thought the pepperoni was charred a tad bit more than I would have liked, this still lives up to the name of being a classic pepperoni. If this is typically your go-to pizza topping, don't hesitate to get this one! 5/5 - Tinto de Verano - Sangria drink that was super smooth and very delicious. Sipping this drink with our pizza was one of the most surprisingly good combos I've had for a meal. Highly recommend ordering this when you visit! read more
Ok...technically, I have yet to visit The Laundromat establishment, but I was lucky enough to try their bagel and schmear down at the Mountain View farmer's market. The Calabrian chili cream cheese is to die for!! It tastes like spicy vodka rigatoni but with bread instead of pasta. The bagel itself was fairly standard, but I really enjoyed the rip and dip method. I just wish they would allow single serve schmear orders...... read more
Hands down the best bagels in the city at the best price point. Get a tub of calabrian cream cheese, everything bagel and a napkin. Head to your favorite spot and dig in. No need to worry about utensils, just rip the bagel into pieces and dip it into the flavorful cream cheese. Quick service, no dine in but truly a gem! read more
Pizza: 5/5 Smash burger: 4/5 Salads: 5/5 Drinks and desert options :4/5 Bagels: 4/5 Overall:4.5/5 Pizza: Detroit style pizza. first the mushroom one and second the sausage. They are pretty filling so one is enough for Two. Don't forget the truffle honey sauce with the mushroom pizza. It's the killer combo Salad: Caesar salad for sure Smash Burger: I wish they had fries. The potato side it comes with is pretty boring, I've tried it twice and both times it was a bit too salty. Service: it's been consistently great Overall it's one of my fav pizza spots, I'm not a bagel person so I can't really judge that part. Smash burger is also okay but I hope they start serving fries and make it less salty read more
Came on Saturday around 5pm (opening) and was able to get a seat at the bar as a party of 2! Recommend coming early as they don't take reservations; when we left around 6:30, there were a ton of folks waiting. We got the sausage and pepper pizza which was more than enough for 2 people. I love how doughy the pizza is, and the sauce on top is a little spicy. Service was great and attentive read more
Came here with a group of friends last Wednesday for burger night, which is every Wednesday 5-9. This was my first time here for not just their burger night but also for dinner. The only other time I've been here was for their bagels. As a group, we ordered several dishes to share and almost each one of us ordered a smashburger. There was quite a lot of food but I'm glad I was able to try multiple dishes on the menu. The smashburger came with potatoes. The burger was delicious. The meat was good; the cheese was good; all of it was good. The potatoes were okay, not my favorite. The crispy brussels were delicious. I loved the addition of cheese, and the brussels were cooked and seasoned well. It was a heavy dish, but I would highly recommend it, especially if you like brussels sprout and cheese. We ordered 3 pizzas: Pizza Alla Vodka Margherita, Classic Pepperoni, and Mushroom Combo. They came rectangle-shaped and are thick, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. I liked them all but especially the margherita and mushroom. read more

I finally got to try their smashburgers on wednesday nights! I drove past there around 4:55pm and saw a long line down the block, when I finished finding parking (which was not terrible) it was around 5:05pm, we got seated at the bar since all tables were already taken. We ordered the crispy brussels sprouts as an appetizer to share, and the taste was incredible. It was also cooked perfectly crispy on the outside and not too soft or hard in the inside. I got the smashburger - the meat patty was perfect, it had crispy edges and it was seasoned well. I like the concept of shrettuce because it's easier to chew through than just a whole lettuce piece. The french potatoes on the side were also delicious! I thought the bun got really soggy very quickly though, within two minutes of my meal I had to switch from picking up my burger to eating it with a fork and knife. But other than that I have no complaints about the burger - it was very solid. read more

Bagels Are amazing Gotta get the spread Get the lobster one You can go in the evening and a mixed dozen bag for like 12 bucks That is so worth it to be honest Parking is super easy Spread price is kinda of iterating But the pizza isn't by the slice by the way read more
First time trying and enjoyed every bite! I'm not a big red-meat eater so opted for the veggie patty since I didn't think my stomach could handle a double patty of the regular and I'm glad because the veggie burger was great but I don't think the potato salad was necessary. The brussels were the real star of the show however. They were perfectly cooked and had the perfect balance of flavors. Also opted to order the Jesus Juice cocktail that almost tasted like a cherry coke. The service was great, the vibe was perfect with great tunes. Definitely worth the wait and would love to come back and try their pizza. read more
I've heard so much about the Laundromat and finally had a chance to stop by! There is usually a line, but it moved very quickly. The operation is very efficient, which is fantastic. We got an everything and a sesame with the calabrian chilli cream cheese. The bagels are nice and doughy with a good bite. These are a pretty solid option for great bagels in the city! They remind me a lot of the rip and dip bagels on the East Coast and I'm glad they're in the city. I wish they had smaller tubs of cream cheese or as option to add onto bagels in a smaller manner. I know some places also offer complimentary cream cheese after a certain amount of bagels. The bagels are a little on the expensive side. read more
I tried this place for the first time this past week after hearing raving reviews about it for about a year or so. My friend and I were seated at a high table after waiting for 30 minutes during a weekday dinnertime. Their menu had such a cute aesthetic! My friend and I settled on their Mushroom Combo pizza. The pizza took a bit longer than expected for it to come out, but it was worth the wait. The pizza is in a rectangular shape that is split in six pre-cut slices. The mushrooms were delicious, as they were earthy, juicy, and not-soggy. The cheese was slightly overwhelming but of high quality, and the cheese pull for each slice separation and bite was satisfying. I was impressed with the crust, which was quite crispy and balanced well with the rest of the pizza. I've heard about some other personal favorites that I would like to try next time, such as the Broccoli pizza and Classic Pepperoni pizza. read more
