Cafe Suspiro - coffee, records, and books! — Restaurant in San Francisco

This place has delicious coffee. There is barely any sitting room unless it's a nice day. On a nice day, you can sit in front on the "patio." I have only really had their lattes.

Everything in the cafe is scooter-themed, which is pretty interesting to look at while you're standing around waiting for your coffee.

The first few times I went, they weren't too busy and I enjoyed small talk with the barista. The last time I went was packed and busy and the woman behind the counter was making a lot of mistakes and pretty flustered, but it seemed like she might be new. The service was kind of slow which may have been on account of that or may be because they were super busy.

Anyways, the crucial thing is that their coffee is pretty delicious and a nice alternative to the super make-you-cringe hipsterdom of Sightglass...

I Like this place but it’s frustrating that they don’t post an accurate schedule or keep to their posted hours. I tried to go twice this week during hours when their website and their sign outside says they should be open, and they were closed with no explanation or notes on their website. Consistency is important to me in a coffee place if I’m going to be a regular. That said, food and drink quality are great if they’re actually open.

Edit to reply to owner: having to close due to health reasons is understandable but next time please at least post a sign. Your reply says back to normal hours “next week” but I have no idea what that means since you didn’t include a date. Please be specific so people can plan their day!! We need to know when you’re open and when...

Great little coffee shop, very friendly. I stopped by before a meeting and got an oat milk latte and a mini-banana loaf. Everything was so tasty. It was the end of the day so there weren’t as many pastry options compared with earlier in the day, but I still found everything delicious. The person (owner?) working the shop was conversational and friendly. I don’t get here as often as I’d like, but I’ve had a great experience every time. The seating is pretty limited, but per my experience, folks are cool about sharing table space. The music is eclectic and I loved every beat I heard while I was there....
