Barnett's standing-room-only coffee bar focuses on espresso-based drinks, made from Linea-brand beans roasted in the East Bay and served in cheery red cups made by Cali's Heath Ceramics. Read more

This is my new favorite coffee shop. They do it all well. You can’t go wrong. This is not for those who think Starbucks is what a latte should be.

This spot features roaster Andrew Barnett's micro-batch coffees and espresso drinks, and also serves as an outlet for promising local food purveyors. Try the Brussels-style waffles. Read more

A treat! Great coffee and beaming baristas in a bustling neighborhood. Waiting on some sort of seating, but there's something to be said about people sitting on the sidewalk having a jolly good time.
Stephanie YeungJuly 30, 2016
They actually don't serve waffles anymore.
Amit LevyMay 30, 2016
Best coffee roasters in the bay area and they pull a mean espresso shot

One of the best kale salads around. (Or waffles with figs if you want to go the breakfast route). Not many tables but a nice open-air-counter vibe.

Great cortado in the morning (but you'll be guilted out of getting it to go). The outside seating can be chill. And chilly.

Lovely coffee, very well made. Proper extraction of self-roasted beans, a joy. The staff is very friendly, and the toast I had was delicious!

They no longer serve waffles early in the mornings.

No waffles anymore. All tips about “best waffles in the city” are outdated.
Lane HalleyNovember 23, 2013
I had the great pleasure of meeting Andrew and enjoying a perfect latte while watching the world go by. Sunny Mission Saturday heaven!

Amazing coffee. If they have the pumpkin muffins while you're here, do yourself a favor and try one!

Come here for coffee in the morning, brown rice salad for lunch, and a waffle on the weekend. Or everything all at once. ✨

They are the best coffee roasters in town. The espresso is great
Hannes ☕April 27, 2016
My double espresso was shorter than all single ristrettos I've ever had. Taste was good. Really nice staff.

Linea Caffe, founded by coffee legend Andrew Barnett, is a must visit for anyone interested in the craft coffee scene.

Sadly they got rid of their waffles, which was the best thing they offered! RIP Linea waffles. Toast isn't the same.

Say hi to Andrew and get a waffle to go with your coffee.

Cute place. Great neighborhood vibe. And not that it's too hard to make but my Americano made me 😀

Perfectly steamed milk every single time. Best cappuccino in the city.
Laurel ToubyAugust 9, 2014
Agree with friendly baristas and great coffee....BUT Most expensive red-eye ever at $5.50 (and they don't warm the mug either). Really? Get real!
Brad TaitJuly 2, 2016
A great, simple coffee and tea café with lovely sidewalk seating.

Sadly, the waffles are gone. The coffee is decent.

Get the winter salad while it lasts and add chicken. It's a best Mission salad contender.

Flat white $5. Expensive and properly made. Petite sunny patio on the side (3 tables)

Any coffee will make you happy. The apple pie is off the charts!

I'm not really an espresso person, but this is the best cappuccino I've ever had.

They carry baked goods from Neighbor bakehouse.

Quinoa salad: add the deep fried bacon. Worth the $2

If you aren't for all the hype around mediocre sight glass coffee in the Bay Area stop by this place, it's amazing.
Taylor LapeyreAugust 7, 2014
Don't miss their cappuccino and Belgian waffles.

Kale salad with avocado dressing is a delicious and healthy choice for lunch.

The coffee is beautiful. Rich blend, great extraction, A++ ☕️💯
Chris MessinaSeptember 24, 2013
What to Order: Pair a simple espresso with a not-so-simple pastrami-and-latke waffle.
KarenSeptember 16, 2016
Their lattes are my favorite in SF! Sweet and not sour.
Mark CialoneNovember 5, 2017
Macchiato is excellent. Drip coffee is great too

If you find most San Francisco coffees too acidic this is the place for you

Good cappuccino and cold brew

The red ceramic cups are beautiful! Coffee's good too.

Take a bite out of the brussels-style waffles here from Lt. Waffle which range from sweet (Greek yogurt, oranges, marmalade and olive oil) to savory (potato waffle with pastrami and sauerkraut). Read more

Omg the potato waffles with pastrami. Coffee was good too.

Get the salads to stay, they're larger and more tasty.
