Spend the afternoon at this no-fuss wine cafe that's equally perfect for reading a book or playing catch up with a group of friends. Snag a table outside and back in the charm of Nob Hill. Read more

One of the better bagel with lox sandwiches I've found in SF. Nothing unexpected, but simply done well and satisfyingly. WinstonWanders.com

Looking for a quick bite? Head to Cafe Nook for an assortment of bagels, soups, salads and sandwiches, plus small-plate-style appetizers. There's a list of sakés and wines in the evening. Read more

I live here. It's kind of embarrassing. Great coffee and simple breakfast and sandwich items. Highly recommend the breakfast wrap when hungover and they make a mean latte.
Layne JJune 23, 2013
Great happy hour! Their mango chutney, pineapple, ham, and fontina cheese pita pizza is delicious. It's also a great spot to watch the trolley cars.

Love the chicken hummus sandwich and breakfast wrap. Get a seat by the huge windows to enjoy the sunshine.

Coffee shop style wine bar with techies pecking away on their laptops. Happy Hour involves cheap wine, ample sunshine and waving tourists on the cable cars passing by.

Perfectly sweet, charming coffee shop at the top of nob hill on cable car corner that turns into a nice wine bar at night. Try the Turkey Cranberry sandwich. I disliked both items until I came here.

No wifi in evenings? No problem. Get here at the beginning of happy hour at 4pm, work like mad til 6, and enjoy the last remaining happy hour like a champ!
Andy FisherApril 1, 2014
Great place to sit and watch the cable cars to by. Feels like you're inside a miniature train set.
Jen StrongMay 21, 2013
Great place to work or study. Free wifi and lots of tables. Also has an awesome happy hour for when work and studying gets old.
Carina AndersenMay 16, 2015

If you're here in the morning get John's Breakfast Bagel. Turkey, Bacon, Avocado, Onions and Tomatoes on a Plain Bagel with Cream Cheese. It's not on the menu but they know how to make it.

Potentially what I miss most about San Francisco -- laptop evenings with a happy hour glass of wine (makes work pass much more quickly...)
Ashley BrookeJune 27, 2014
I love both the turkey cranberry brie sandwich and the breakfast burrito.
JulienApril 9, 2016
Trendy place to have a coffee or a beer. Nice terrace in a quiet neighborhood!
Emmanuel QuarteyApril 5, 2015
Really cozy. Could legitimately read and work here for hours. Free wifi during the weekday, but not during weekends.
Nilofer VahoraMay 3, 2011
Happy hour til 7pm! Great work environment (free wifi, good music, friendly staff). Also, you can keep a tab open if you plan to stay and work for a while.

Grab a seat outside and watch the cable cars go by.

Cute corner shop with a great breakfast burrito.
Adam RhubergSeptember 4, 2014
Breakfast wrap is solid any time of day. Make sure to get it with the avocado.

Sake Ginger cocktail is quite glorious and definitely not overpriced! Love it! Plus this place has some healthy but yummy grub.
Karolina 🦖September 12, 2015
I walked 7 blocks as Foursquare told me there's free wifi here. Well, yes, just not on the weekends, even though the place was half-empty.
Max MiaDecember 27, 2015
You can't take drinks on the cable car. Dumbest rule in San Fran. Fuck the city. It's not even booze plus the server could have mentioned that!!!
Dania ElMarch 4, 2015
Wifi wine breakfast and coffee. What more could one ask for?
Jinah ChoiMay 9, 2014
They're open till 10 pm but wifi shuts off at 6 pm! (Lighting gets dimmer at night as well)

A recent study confirms unusually high levels of deliciosity emanating from the honey-baked ham and sage sandwich.
Peter FridaySeptember 25, 2016
If you live close its great, but not sure it's worth a trip across the city.
David SchachApril 13, 2013
Keep your ears open - they don't always announce loudly when an order is ready, and people are often milling around the pickup counter so it is hard to hear.
