"There are few better coffee shops in San Francisco — maybe the West Coast — than the Coffee Movement. Strident hipsters will hike up Nob Hill until they die, but the new-ish outpost on Balboa Street has room to hang out, exquisite pastries, and tremendous glass windows to capture any lingering San Francisco sun. The usual menu of innovative coffee drinks, such as the seasonal coffee cream soda, is available at this location. Cafe pop-up Hi-NRG, two baristas who cut their teeth here, in the Inner Richmond is worth investigating, too." - Paolo Bicchieri
