Alamo Square Cafe

"Cool vibe and quiet. Sandwich was a small/thin for $10 but tasted fine overall."

"Great place to stop for a delicious sandwich and coffee if you’re visiting the painted ladies! My fiancé and I were visiting for an event and stayed nearby within walking distance. I got a salmon avocado sandwich on a whole wheat roll with a small cappuccino and my fiancé got a smoked turkey sandwich on French bread with a small iced black tea. Everything was great! The whole wheat roll was SO soft and all parts of my sandwich were seasoned, including the lettuce. I was pleasantly surprised and finished the whole sandwich. My fiancé also enjoyed his sandwich (finished it!) and his black tea was so good! My coffee was dark and foamed well, like a cappuccino should be. Service was great. There was only one gentleman working the shop and he was able to get ours and others’ orders out quickly. There are 6 small tables in the seating area, on either side of the front entrance and each space has access to an outlet with multiple plugs. Every table was clean and the space was well kept so we were able to choose any of the tables that weren’t already taken! Very much appreciated that. There was a medium flow of traffic on a Monday, late afternoon and a couple of people using the space with their lap tops when we were there. It was a chill space with a lively radio in the background, Drake, Lizzie, Taylor swift, etc. There’s local art work on the walls with pricing and a QR code for purchase too! I really liked this space and wish I lived nearby so that I could stop by more often! For now, I’d recommend to friends and family. TLDR: Unpretentious cafe with a chill vibe, delicious sandwiches, and lots of outlets."

"Got a cappuccino and bagel breakfast here. Nice ambience and medium level of business on a Sunday morning. I really enjoyed the ambience, the kind barista, and the ability to do work in this cafe. 6 tables and lots of power outlets! However the coffee is not my favorite at all. The coffee tasted like dark roast and reminded me of Starbucks coffee. Maybe that would fit the palette of someone else, but I would come back here to do work or grab a bite, and not for the coffee."

"This is a nice, unpretentious small cafe just around the corner from Alamo square. The couple who served us were super friendly and attentive. It's clean and calm inside with limited outside seating. Prices are reasonable for the neighborhood, three dollar coffee, $13.50 sandwiches. Nice place"

"The Lox Bagel was super fresh, soft on the inside, lightly toasted, and warm enough to slightly melt the cream cheese, crispy cucumber, red onion, and fresh tomatoe~ Yummy! The Pumpkin Oat Milk Latte was perfect for enjoying walking through the nearby park on a fall morning."
