Andytown Coffee Roasters

"Generic iced coffee this is not. Andytown’s Snowy Plover deserves its own praise as a bubbly, caffeine-driven drink that keeps customers going through the day. It features Andytown espresso shot over sparkling water and simple syrup topped with house-made whipped cream. It’s a rejuvenating beverage with a caffeine kick in the pants." - Lauren Saria

"Andytown Coffee Roaster, noted for the Snowy Plover, a potent cold brew christened in honor of the birds seen flitting about in the Outer Sunset, has three locations: one at Taraval and 40th Avenue, one at Lawton near the Great Highway, and a downtown spot next to the Transbay Transit Center (currently shuttered). Co-owner Lauren Crabbe says, 'Honestly, everything was so topsy-turvy with the pandemic at play, but I can say for sure that our Taraval location has seen a lot of pedestrian traffic.'" - Brock Keeling

"Andytown Coffee Roasters is one of the participants in the NextGen Cup Challenge, using cups from a start-up called Muuse." - Eve Batey

"San Francisco has so many great coffee shops that they could have their own King Arthur-style mythology built around them, and if that existed, Andytown would definitely have a seat at that Round Table. Aside from making perfect coffee, this spot has excellent soda-bread scones and a concoction called the Snowy Plover with espresso, sparkling water, and whipped cream that always leads to a big line going out the door on the weekends." - Will Kamensky

"At hip Andytown in Outer Sunset, they roast their own beans, and their espresso drinks are automatically doubled. 'Nuff said." - Lexi Pandell
