The 18 Best Coffee Shops In San Francisco

"Andytown’s Great Highway outpost hit the jackpot in the beachside real estate market—the Richmond cafe is just steps away from the beach, and the floor-to-ceiling windows flood the space with natural light (they also have locations in SoMa and the Sunset). The welcoming spot is home to strong espresso, plants hanging everywhere, and a TV playing surfing competitions or otter live streams overhead. We like to spend a slow morning here with a brown sugar latte and one of their excellent pastries before heading down to Ocean Beach to play fetch with an overexcited dog or take a windy seaside stroll." - julia chen 1, lani conway, ricky rodriguez, patrick wong
