Abanico Coffee Roasters

"Abanico Coffee Roasters brought specialty coffee drinks and freshly roasted beans to the Mission in 2021. Owner Ana Valle is originally from El Salvador, where she grew up sipping cafecito with her grandmother. Now she’s sweetening cafe con leche with condensed milk and dusting iced cafe de olla with cinnamon in this bright, airy space." - Paolo Bicchieri

"Abanico isn’t going to win any awards for coffee of the year, or whatever prize is trendy nowadays, but not every cup of coffee has to change your life. That’s perfectly fine. The beans are good and some drinks might push you in a new direction, so on second thought, yes, this coffee might change your life. Abanico specializes in Salvadorean takes on coffee classics such as the cafe con morro and cafecito con espuma, adding sweet and nutty flairs to your daily coffee. They also serve up a variety of croissants from nearby Kahnfections that are worth a look. The space is pretty stark, so don’t expect to lug your laptop in and get some work done, or chat about life with a friend for hours. But if you’re on Mission Street searching for caffeine, this spot is worth popping into." - Ricky Rodriguez

"Abanico Coffee on Mission Street is a big inspiration to the co-owners who are in regular conversation with Ana Valle since she also roasts her coffee in the Sunset District." - Paolo Bicchieri

"Owned by Ana Valle, Abanico Coffee Roasters is proud of its Salvadorean roots, offering unique beverages like cafe con morro and aiming to provide a sense of representation and cultural pride for the Salvadorean community in the area." - Paolo Bicchieri
