I just spent $8 on a single slice of toast. It has almond butter and berry jam on it. Yummy but not $8 worth of yummy. When I saw the price I was expecting maybe a good hearty couple slices of bread but no... One slice. One. Single. Slice. Cut diagonally. One slice. Really?! Wow! Don't get the almond toast guys, it's so very not worth the $$$.
Cost of living in SF and paying enough for people who serve you to live near here, trust me I get it and I support it within reason, hence why I came here rather than stop at Safeway for a quick bite, but putting ONE slice of bread (that constitutes as maybe a side item, or a snack, not a meal) in a toaster and then slathering on some almond butter and jam takes someone maybe 3 minutes to do.
Advice to you if you're eating at this food truck, get something for a couple bucks more that has more of a meal quality to it. This is ridiculous, what should be a lovely experience in my city has turned...

📍 SPRO Coffee Lab - San Francisco, CA ⭐️⭐️⭐️½
Drinks:
Island Hop (Iced) – Sweet and creamy, with a nice tropical vibe. – Could use a touch more coffee and a little less milk for balance. – Loved the ube flavor and would be curious to try it hot next time!
Smoke & Mirrors – A lighter, less sweet option for black coffee enthusiasts. – The rose flavor was too subtle—I’d have liked it to stand out more. – The sparkly presentation made it visually stunning!
My boyfriend and I stopped by SPRO Coffee Lab while apartment hunting and exploring Spark Social SF. This coffee shop stood out with its unique and creative menu. The drinks we tried were good, but I’m eager to come back and explore more of their offerings, including their pastries.
If you’re in the area, I definitely recommend checking out this spot for something a little different!

However, the presentation was lacking. I was definitely expecting something more exciting out of the smoke & mirrors drink, which ended up being just that - smoke and mirrors. Edible gold dust? Didn’t see it in the drink. The sandwich looked pretty vanilla. The taste was also lacking. The pulled pork sandwich tasted more like a school cafeteria sloppy joe (you may be into that but I wasn’t). The coffee had an interesting floral flavor but I’m not sure it would really be anyone’s “go to” drink. But that’s just me.
Would have given 4/5 but the price points at $7 for a drink and $11 for pulled pork sandwich leaves a slight bitter taste in my palate and leaves me feeling that I didn’t get the best foodie ROI. Also, not sure I get a lot of experimental “lab” out of the...
