Andytown Coffee: San Francisco’s Coffee Mini-Empire Is Opening A Surprise FiDi Shop | Eater SF

"A fixture of San Francisco coffee culture — often described as a 'San Francisco transplant starter pack' — with the Snowy Plover singled out: "enter the church of the Snowy Plover." Co-owners Lauren Crabbe and Mickey McCrory, who founded the business in 2014, are opening their eighth shop in the Financial District on Tuesday, May 27; signage was spotted earlier at 747 Front Street and the opening was confirmed on Instagram on Monday, May 19. Located near Jackson Square and the Embarcadero, the shop will sell the brand's usual treats and is described as "to-go focused," with hours from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. It arrives into a dense local coffee scene — Outset Coffee, Paper Son Coffee, and Cafe Shojito among nearby mainstays — so stiff competition from established coffee spots is expected." - Paolo Bicchieri
