About this cafe
A lively neighbourhood room where headphones earn their keep. The signal reaches the back of the room without fading. The kitchen does breakfast burritos, good enough to stay through lunch.

Easy on a student budget. Plenty of plugs if you sit by the wall. Reliable WiFi, one blip in a few hours.

Third visit this month. Open till 8pm, handy for an evening session. If you grab one of the seats along the wall you'll have a socket within reach for the whole day. The cortado was properly made, which I don't take for granted in places built for laptops. At $3.88 for a cortado it's one of the cheaper places in San Francisco to work from.

Worked from here on a Monday afternoon. Wall seats are the only ones with power and they were gone. Worth going for the breakfast burritos alone.

Finally tried this place. Connection was fine for uploads. Too noisy to focus for long. Wall seats have the sockets.

Pretty good. WiFi was just as fast at the back as by the door. Prices are kind for San Francisco, but the music is turned up high enough that headphones stop being optional by midday. Recommended.

Took my laptop here on a Tuesday. Ordered the breakfast burritos and stayed another two hours. Good WiFi signal at every table I tried. Get the cortado.
