The 16 Best Places to Eat and Drink in the Upper Haight

"Though Blue Front Cafe does more than just Middle Eastern food, the falafel, kabobs, and gyros are the main reason to visit this laid back cafe where you order and pick up your food at the counter. The prices feel a little steep, but the portions are huge, so it all evens out. There's also free Wifi, good coffee, and a couple of beers on tap, so this is a great spot to have a casual meeting or get some work accomplished." - Paolo Bicchieri

Not a more authentic perfect piece of history on the map. A must see. A must experience. It’s simply great to see Jimmy “Duck” Holmes and all the Blue Front Gang. Catch a festival or just a weekend gig! The people are great and it’s always a great experience!!

After watching “I am the Blues” we decided to stop by and see this legendary location. We were expecting it to be closed but to our surprise it is still open and this Juke Joint is amazing ! We met Jimmy “The Duck” Holmes and had an amazing conversation with him. We hung out for a few hours just soaking up the atmosphere. It felt like going back home.

I can't comment about the food or service, I came out to help Mz Ankh's Cafe with a event she cooked nachos, tacos, fish, and chicken dinners. But I did very much enjoy the Blues Fest they had at this facility, I will go back again and get back with you on the food and service

I missed out on music but had a lovely time talking to staff. Sweet home feel to the place with locals hanging out. Fried chicken and potato wedges were great. Hope to come back on a day that has music

this place is an amazing piece of history owned and operated for the last 40+ years by Jimmy "Duck" Holmes. if you're lucky enough to cross paths with him, he might play a song for you.

Authentic. A real joint. As real as it gets. I left the Mississippi Delta Blues Museum and headed onto Bentonia just for the experience. Incredible

[Friday, 25-Feb-2022 review] Stopped at the Blue Front today and had a nice chat with Jimmie, picked up a copy of Cypress Grove and a delicious to go order of chili with crackers. You’ll never go wrong at Jimmie’s place. Go.
