Fellow

Nick is super friendly and introduce the coffee machine in detailed. For the new fellow espresso series, it provides high quality espresso with good milk steaming function. It a must-see spot for coffee lovers.

McKenzie and Lily are absolute standouts at Fellow Valencia. We bought the last black matcha set, the EKG Pro kettle, and a matching cortado cup and they made the entire experience flawless. Incredible energy, deep product knowledge, and such genuine care. This is what AMAZING retail service looks like. We’ll be back for everything.

Completely overpriced, overhyped and overmarketed products. Got the stagg ekg that all coffee and tea lovers got to have... I put aside my doubts to sacrifice and pay the very high price tag. The product looks fine at first glance, yet there are just too many problems: - Kettle stopped working after 1 year of regular use. Customer service sent a new base but the problem is the kettle itself, I have now been waiting for 3 months but not response from their side. - When filled to the indicated limit, the boiling water always splashes over the lid's holes. I have burnt myself repeatedly which is extremely annoying. - The white plastic lid is changing its colour to yellow after only few months (the handle plastic is finer). - When the kettle reaches 90°C, it takes much longer to reach the boiling point which is very frustrating to wait for that long. - The power cable to the base is extremely shoet which does not allow for flexibility. - The kettle's pour is very slow and not smooth.

Not worth the trip. The storefront is nothing special, and the experience was underwhelming. The new S1 wasn’t working, so no demo was available, and we were told it’s not a taste test location — which seems like an odd choice for a coffee brand known for design and sensory experience. The staff member was on the phone dealing with another issue, so there wasn’t much of a welcome, doesn't seem to be an employee problem but a business decision problem to have someone handle a storefront and CS. Even the new glassware was display-only, not for sale — which makes no sense if you’re trying to excite customers about new products. The only item unique to the store was a Carter mug that says “San Francisco,” but beyond that, there was no special feel or reason to visit. Honestly, you’ll have a better experience just ordering online.

A cool place to visit if you’re interested in coffee and wanna touch those equipment in person. The people inside working doesn’t really bother you. We also bought a pop-up Macha while we were visiting there, which was pretty cool. For me it feels like more of a place that’s displaying their product and I don’t really know if they have coffee or not.

They have all the fellow products. I have a grinder and mug that I both like a lot. Lily was very helpful in finding a replacement part for my grinder.

John and Lily, were so helpful in us finding the right products. Definitely come here for all your coffee needs!!

Super friendly staff who was trying to find a solution for having multiple lids for the 12oz Carter mug. I just got the mug in the end with no extra lids.

I've been a casual admirer of Fellow for years. My interest piqued with the announcement of the Aiden Coffee Maker. I followed the online status updates leading up to product release and read lots of reviews before plunking down bread this past November on the Aiden and the Ode Gen 2 grinder. During my online research, I came across a couple reviews that labeled Fellow "the Apple version" of coffee gear, and I do see parallels. Similar to Apple, Fellow pushes the boundaries in design and functionality, and is much more focused on user experience than most of their coffee gear competitors. And the SF Valencia Street store, with its stripped back walls, open counter displays and tons of natural light, IMO does give off Apple Store vibes. I've thoroughly enjoyed using my Aiden and Ode as part of my morning ritual over the past six months. However, a few weeks ago, my grinder started clicking/chirping and became more audible while grinding. After a bungled attempt on my part to clean and calibrate the grinder, I called the Valencia Street store. Stellar (what some call white glove) customer service is yet another similarity between Apple and Fellow. From my call with Jon, to my trip the next day to the Fellow store with my ailing Ode, nothing but a positive experience. Once I handed over my grinder, Tara went to work disassembling it, then cleaned and calibrated it in no time. And Jon provided a cup of Coco Bongo coffee while I waited. It was the first cup of coffee I've tasted with a coconut flavor profile and I gotta say, it's delicious! The level of service that Tara and Jon provide is exactly what inspires customer loyalty and it's also what's now made me a Fellow fanboy!

I'm looking for a high-quality, made in the USA, water bottle. While shopping at Fellow on Valencia Street in San Francisco, I kept turning their water bottles over looking for where it was made. It doesn't say so I asked the girl who reluctantly said, "In China." Then the guy working there aggressively asked, "Where do you want it to be made?" to which I quickly replied, "The U.S." I heard sighs and mumblings from these hipster brats to which I asked, "Is that bad? You hear about Chinese containments making their way into our consumer products." "Do you?" asks the girl. Where do you see these reports? I've never seen them." "The internet," was my reply on the way out. Sure enough when I went home and looked at their website, there is a PFAS disclosure--the forever chemical--for products mostly made in China. But, you would never know that by picking up one of their water bottles in the store.

Be very interesting store with a variety of tea kettles coffee makers drink containers and related items. Very different and artistic. They were having a 20% sale but it was not clear exactly what items were on sale.

Shout out to the people who work here! I've been in a few times since I bought my Fellow Aiden coffee maker, and they have been exceptionally customer service oriented in helping me every time I've been in. I first got one of their canisters for taking coffee to go with me, and they hooked me up with some filters and told me I didn't need to worry about trying to buy from them. This was about 10 minutes before they closed, but they weren't rushing me along. The second time I came I upgraded my grinder, which I talked to one of their employees about. He was really great in just telling me all the ins and outs of it, which was fantastic in helping me feel reassured about my purchase. They also made note that I should register it for a free extra year of warranty. Beyond that, they also had some sample of this amazing peach coffee they had brewed, which I bought since it was so damn tasty. I look forward to when they have the store picks there set for brew profiles on the Aiden!! All that said, I love my coffee set up now. I am easily making better coffee than I was drinking at some of the best coffee spots in the city. This is eventually going to save me money in 4-5 months, but the quality and enjoyment of getting to try new coffee is definitely increasing. As the Aiden app improves, I look forward to getting more and more options for brewing coffee. Perhaps even eventually having an ode grind setting suggestion for batch size added?

This place is getting run down. The demonstration products are not charged or not plugged in; simply not working. The sample coffee beans are empty, with half simply empty glass tubes. The decorative plants are obviously dead or close to dying. This is getting sad. Fix up your store!

This is a review for my visit all the way back last winter. I had saved a draft in my phone and only now realize I never posted it--apologies to the wonderful staff! We were having issues with our Ode grinder and John came in to save the day! Not only did he make sure we had a running Ode grinder, he did so in record time! Was super friendly, super helpful, and we are so happy! The grinder is still running smoothly and we're making delicious coffee thanks to John's help! If only I had been as speedy writing this review as the wonderful Fellow staff was in helping out!

I was gifted a Pour Over brewing set last year which took me a long time to try make a good cup of coffee. It improved after a few months, however my coffee was still not quite as good as I could brew from a French Press. After doing a bit of reading on how to brew pour over coffee, plus learning a lot of useful information from James Hoffman's YouTube videos, I decided it was time to add a Gooseneck Kettle to my collection of coffee accoutrements. After browsing the various options I decided to go for the Fellow Stagg EKG electric gooseneck kettle. This was quite an investment since it is one of the more expensive gooseneck kettles on the market. I chose the regular Stagg EKG kettle, not the one with bluetooth capability. Bluetooth seemed like overkill to me. Does a water boiler need bluetooth? The Fellow Stagg EKG gooseneck kettle is beautiful and well made. It is sleek and modern. And it comes in a variety of finishes and trims. I bought the basic black one. It was very easy to figure out how to use. And it was a game changer in my pour over coffee. The gooseneck provides so much better control. My cup of coffee improved exponentially compared to my previous inadequate attempts (not using a gooseneck kettle). Making pour overs is now fun. Absolutely no regrets. The basic kettle has some nice features. You can toggle between Fahrenheit and Celcius. There is a dial to select the exact temperature you want your water heated to. And a "hold" toggle, for keeping the water at that set temperature for up to an hour. I am so impressed with the Stagg EKG kettle that I will save up for the Stagg [XF] Pour Over Set. The only downside is that these Fellow products are on the expensive side for anyone who is on a budget.

Had been over zealous about supporting this company and bought 3 sets of products for friends and family as gifts and bought my own Carter mugs for myself monogrammed and all. I was so excited when I received it and proudly brought it to work and felt good about not wasting cups at cafes and keeping my coffee hot all morning! The honeymoon did not last long. Despite replacing the lid the Carter leaks big time and worse the interior is peeling off! I really liked the stylish look of this as well as how hot it kept my coffee. I even had many compliments on its design originally and proudly directed them where to buy Fellow Products. Their customer service is troubling and what should have been exchanged is now going unfortunately into landfill. Additionally they market a discount to teachers and students but don't honor it. I have spent about $500 there and originally felt like I would be loyal for the long haul but between not being accountable for their products as they iron out glitches and with friends telling me their Carters are also leaking, I will continue my search for a quality no-spill coffee mug. Do Better Fellow- replace my Carter using your updated fixes and make this hassle- free so I can restore my original faith in your products

I ordered the Stagg EKG Electric Kettle in February and within a few months, the wooden knob on the lid started to crack. I know better next time to oil the knob... I stopped by the Mission retail store yesterday to inquire about a replacement lid and staff checked their stock and gave me a replacement lid on the spot - just like that! Awesome customer service! Thank you so much!!!

We love our fellow products! We went into the store today to get some help with our grinder and the fabulous person there took it apart and cleaned it and calibrated it and made sure it was working right. So grateful- and it was just before closing time. Thank you!

Crappy products and worse company. Bought a Stagg Kettle because it looked good. It stopped working after 4 months, and they refuse to honor the warranty. Avoid their products.

Fellow is a great place for coffee gadgets : drip, storage, grind and more. It's also a place to learn more about coffee and see the staff demo their deep knowledge about coffee. Did you know a lot of kettles, storage and drip from Blue Bottle Coffee are actually Fellow coffee colab. I recommend the simple stove top kettle with a thermal meter on the lid, at the center. It's surprising how useful this temperature sensor is. Getting the water to the right temperature improves the efficiency and taste of the pour over significantly.

The quality of this company's products is excellent, as well as the design. But I would also like to point out that they have excellent customer service and stand behind their products.

I have a colleague in Singapore who is obsessed with Blue Bottle. He goes to the one in New York and also the one in Tokyo (I stalk him on Instagram, that's how I know). Just can't get enough of it. I was in Singapore recently and I told him that that Blue Bottle was very circa 2011. I was lining up drinking that stuff when it was served in an ally in the Financial District. I wish that I could take him here instead. Because this is very 2018. I liked the idea of coffee sampling. There were five in the tasting menu today. Starts with the light roast, and then medium, then finally full body roast to decaf. What I found interesting was the way of tasting. You scoop up coffee with a spoon and then a spit cup and you line up for sampling. Very chic. I also enjoyed the coffee brewing equipment, all made in San Francisco and all very interesting. The electric kettle came with temperature gauge and that's quite cool. I did want to see how the kettle is being used, though no demo today. Valencia is very Williamsburg-eque, I do find the entire area is trying to be more Brooklyn then Manhattan, and I get that vibe as to why. Maybe I have Brooklyn on my mind because my next trip is in April. Very positively exciting to be here today. Will try to one up my Singapore colleague by posting a coffee photo on my instagram account better than the one he took in Tokyo earlier today.

As I am wont to do, I am inspired to drop a review after experiencing elation about a place. I have actually reviewed this place once but for some reason Yelp isn't giving me the option to update my review, however it is an update. I've been a Fellow fan for a couple of years. I finally broke down and bought an Ode grinder in December which helped my pourover game but didn't make it stellar. I have spent months, years in fact, trying to figure out what I am doing wrong because my coffee has always tasted kind of mediocre despite ultra filtered water, weighing it precisely, and learned pourover techniques as seen on Youtube and Fellow's own amazing website. I have been using a Hario V60 kettle and carafe. Those are basically the most popular kettles on the market so I thought it couldn't possibly (and might not, alas) be the kettle, however I did notice the pour rate through the large hole at the bottom of the Hario cone is large so the coffee drips very fast. When Fellow recently released their lovely Stagg kettles in my favorite deep blue color I knew I finally had to try it. I went to the store on Sunday and the store is wonderful. Nothing has changed much since I was there in December for my Ode grinder but they have drop dead gorgeous mugs, kettles and swag for the aficionado. Hailie, who I have traded some friendly texts with about my various questions helped answer my many questions while holding down a busy store by herself and soon after I was walking out with a new Stagg kettle, stunning mug and the carafe pourover kit. Be warned: Fellow is not cheap, however as with most things you get what you pay for and this is no exception. The reason I am writing this review is because, for the first time since I started my home pourover routine in March of '20, I have a truly amazing cup of coffee. I simply cannot believe the difference. I am finally enjoying coffee every bit as good as all the high end overpriced pourover places I have frequented. The kettle is, as others have noted, just amazing. You simply fill it up and turn the dial and it does the rest. At this point, I am all in with Fellow and given the store is in SF I would say if you are serious about your coffee you should make the investment. If something goes wrong with anything you buy, I'd recommend just taking it back instead of dealing with their online customer service, which seems to be lacking from reviews I've read. I've learned there is a "best" in the coffee business too, even though the hundreds of products and expert reviews will likely leaving you baffled and confused also. I'll say this: Fellow is the best, especially for the mid to high end market. Save your pennies and make the investment. You'll be glad you did.

I purchased the Fellow Ode Gen 2 Coffee Grinder a few months ago. While I think the grinder is like a work of art, it does not work! I agree with the many owners of this grinder that it jams, beans to not feed into the grinder and often just stops working. EVERY time I use it I must hand feed the beans into the grinder, and then must WACK the side of the grinder hard in order to clear the jam! On a $350 Grinder?? REALLY????? I have emailed with Fellow Tech support and while they were friendly, ultimately they were useless. I have cleaned and recalibrated the grinder, and there is no difference. Beautiful product that does not work properly. I give it a ONE STAR.

Fellow makes fantastic coffee brewing products, for starters. Being able to experience them all in one place is a treat. Also, the staff working there are very friendly and knowledgable. If you catch them at the right time you might be able to taste what they are brewing. Also, they have a nice refurb section where you can find some good discounts.

Fellow is the dapper, attractive but premium-priced love child of third wave coffee and aesthetics, home of the gorgeous Stagg kettles, feel-good-in-your-hand-look-good-on-display mugs, clean pour over apparatus, fresh beans, among other things. I have visited Fellow twice, once on a weeknight evening and once on a weekend afternoon. On my first visit, the gentleman working there was the only one in the shop but offered to walk through a pour over with my friends and me. After inquiring about the beans and purchasing a bag, the employee gave me a sample of other beans which they did not yet have on sale. On the second, a young woman answered my friends' questions about the Aeropress Prismo and other coffee news. Both employees I interacted with during my visits were helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable. In the shop, you can buy an assortment of gear from kettles, pour over apparatuses, various mugs, airtight canisters, scales, and choose from a rotation of fresh beans from local roasters, to purchase whole beans or taste in the brewing area in the back of the shop. They also sell the newly popularized third wave instant coffee packets at $3 a pop. All in all, a great playground for anyone interested in upping their coffee game, which is arguably strong in San Francisco. However, I probably would not go out of my way to fight for a space on the street and then cough up $7/hr for parking, because their items are also available online and at other retailers.

Note: This is not a coffee shop. It is a coffee equipment store that also sells beans. They have a lab out back to teach you how to make the best pour over of your life. You simply purchase 1oz test tube of any of the 5 or so single origin coffee beans on display, and let Danny (store manager) or his colleagues show you how to improve your pour over skills. This location is the flagship retail location of the Fellow Store, as well as the Playground (lab) at the back. We went in for the coffee beans -- specifically a Kansas roaster was featured. They carried 5 beans from Kenya to Guatemala. We picked 2 test tubes ($3 each + tax) of coffee beans and headed to the back with Danny, who ensured the water was at an even 205 degrees. He mentioned they use super pure reverse osmosis (soft) water that makes a difference. All the beans were medium to light roast and were ground at the setting for pour overs. Danny places the pre-heated carafe on a scale, wets the coffee filter with hot water, and throws away the water in the carafe. Next, he puts 20-28 grams of coffee grounds on the coffee filter and teaches us how to pour. The process takes over 3 minutes, with rebukes when you screw up. You can tell Danny is passionate and cares. He explains every step of the way, and tells you when to start and stop, when to pour slow, and fast. As a courtesy, reserve your questions till the end of his spiel. Skipping to the end. We taste 2 of the best pour overs (hello endowment effect) that we had no idea we could make. We chat for 10 minutes and get additional tips on how to make the pour overs. Tip: Sign up for their newsletter for free events at the Playground

My Ode grinder was 2+ years old and out of warranty. A staff member spent a considerable amount of time trying to fix it, and eventually offered an exchange. I was very pleasantly surprised and returned home to have a cup. it is increasingly rare that a business will go the extra mile. in addition to the Ode grinder which works extremely well, I have bought the Prismo filter for Aeropress, another well designed product that makes coffee brewing easier and yields consistent good results.

Ordered a kettle online and it never shipped. I asked for an estimated ship date after waiting a week with no updates and they then replied saying the system glitched and the item I ordered is out of stock & backordered until August. Was given the option of canceling or waiting for restock. Told Alli (customer service rep) that I want to cancel and get a refund and then she stopped responding. I emailed her again asking for a cancellation confirmation. No response. Emailed fellow again (since they don't have a phone number listed). No response. DM'd them on Instagram and. No. Response. Messages the manager listed on here to see if at least he'll respond, but I do NOT recommend this company. Plus I found a cuter kettle at Brim & for cheaper.

Purchased a relatively expensive grinder around a year ago. Quirky to operate and messy. Then, it stopped working. Now I am having to trade emails with someone to resolve the warranty issue and I feel like I am getting the run around and playing games. "You will get store credit and purchase a new one with that, paying the difference.". Really!!! I paid good money, it broke - just send me a new one. Same color, not the less popular color that you have sitting on the shelf. If I wanted white, that is what I would have purchased in the first place. PRODUCT QUALITY = POOR. CUSTOMER SERVICE/ISSUE RESOLUTION = POOR. I will never buy another product from this company.

I personally love my Stagg EKG kettle, and I came by to take a look at the limited edition pastel pink kettle they had on sale for Valentine's Day. However, I don't need TWO kettles, so I really came by to take a look around and see what else they have on sale. All the other patrons in the store were tourists, and I even saw a few couples here who were on a Sunday afternoon date strolling down Valencia Street.

Visited the store this week because I was having an issue with my Stagg kettle. John was super helpful and quickly resolved the issue. Thanks John!

fellow stagg ekg died in less than 3 years. consider another brand

I ordered the tea kettle on 4/6 (they charged me immediately). I received an email shipping confirmation on 4/8 "Your Order Has Shipped". Each time I checked UPS it would give me the same "No Shipping Information Available". I contacted their ONLY source of contact which is an email address. No phone number anywhere. I tried social media and no response. I've been going back and forth via emails with different employees who take time to get back to me. I only live a few hours from their store which is extra odd I haven't received my order. The lack of customer service/support is really frustrating. They offered to give me an additional 10% off to keep waiting. I've been asked to wait "a few more days" since early last week. How does this company not have a phone number?! Just overall bad experience. Beware when ordering from this company.

I don't personally relate to the goal of this store at all. It is the epitome of The New Valencia Street, uber-gentrified and geared towards monied techies who are obsessed with getting the ultimate pour-over coffee experience. I love good coffee as much as the next girl, but my french press at home does me just fine, so long as I use good beans. When I walked into this cavernous store, I noted how empty it felt, how few items they had on display...given the rents on Valencia St, that was my first warning that the price tags would be hefty! The kettles are admittedly stylish visually, with a modern, neo-Scandanavian aesthetic. Then I started noticing the prices...WOW!!! They have a bunch of wildly expensive kettles that they advertise as being "for coffee lovers", with price tags starting around $80 and going up to almost $200!! These aren't large kettles, either, so if you're looking to heat water for something other than your pour-over brew, it might not be of a sufficient size. I use an electric kettle everyday at home, admittedly mostly for large pots of tea. But I also use it for boiling water for all sorts of other things, from instant oatmeal to my slow cooker, and yes, my french press. The kettles this store sells are way more expensive than mine, and aren't marketed for other purposes besides making coffee. It's hard for me to imagine preferring this single-tasker, but again, if you're obsessed with the pour-over coffee world, this might be your, *achem*, cup of tea. Other items featured included a pour-over device for $59...that's not including any device or pitcher with which to catch the brewed coffee underneath! It has half the functionality of my french press for literally twice the price I paid! But the part that really got me (and the reason I'm giving this place a two-star rating) was that the employees completely ignored me and my partner while we walked around the store. No one said hello, offered us any guidance, or even batted an eyelash in our direction. There were *maybe* two other customers in the store, also walking around unassisted. It struck me as odd that a store that obviously sells such specialty items doesn't go out of its way to train staff to make sure folks who walk in are immediately enlightened as to the value of this rather pricey set of wares! I guess that's what really bothered me: An utter lack of customer interaction from the staff. I can find no reason to ever go back to this store. I love coffee and I love using an electric kettle, but not enough to invest in anything from this store. If, however, you are a hipster pour-over coffee devotee, maybe this is a place you'd want to put on your shopping agenda to visit...but be prepared to aggressively seek out assistance from staff when you visit, because if your experience is anything like mine, they might not approach you.

If you are having a problem getting a response from the Fellow folks and feel at wits end...i live a half a block from their shop on Valencia. I have no problem dropping in with a question or two,or if you just need some help with order or problem acknowledgment... i could be your gal... tips accepted...lol !

I preorder the coffee grinder in April and finally arrived yesterday. Sadly the machine does not grind at all but only makes the noise. Also, the edge of the cup is sharp and not polish well. So I contact customer support to return the product with the photo/video to show the proof, then the customer support told me they will charge me a 15% restocking fee if the item has been used even the grinder does not work at all. "I'm happy to walk through troubleshooting with you to remedy the issue, if you'd just like a straight return you would be assessed the restocking fee yes." I have their kettle and brewing tool and love it so much, but surprisingly the customer support is that horrible.

This business is impossible to contact. Warning. Be careful about buying anything from them because your only option if you have an issue is to drive all the way back to San Francisco!

i haven't poured a bad cup of coffee since investing in fellow products. it's made the process of making a pour over extra enjoyable with such beautiful tools

This place was my personal favorite from our recent SF trip. The atmosphere is cool up front then in the back you get to experiment with Fellow's products. My group got to make their own pour overs for $3/coffee and had a great time. There was support and guidance from a Barista and the coffee came out great! We ended up purchasing some of the Fellow coffee products to replicate our experience at home. Several coffee roasters from around the US had beans to brew coffees with. Very fun idea. We all can not wait to go back. If you like coffee or want to get better at making your own coffee, come here!

I popped into this store today, and all I can say is, WOW. I've been a huge coffee aficionado all my life, and I'm always on the hunt for the latest and greatest. I was amazed (and honestly surprised) at how well designed the Fellow products are. I was particularly impressed by their electric kettle. It's black, super sleek, and something that will actually look good on my kitchen counter. But here's the best part: behind the show room is a taste room where you can select a coffee bean of your choice, grind it up, and brew it using Fellow's pour over equipment. The guy in the store gave me step-by-step instructions, and the cup of coffee that I made was among the best I've ever had (I think I was using Linea coffee beans). Anyway, if you're in the market for well-designed coffee products that will look dope in your kitchen, check this place out.

If you love coffee and love making coffee you have to visit this store. They have great designs that improve your coffee brewing experience and the staff is knowledgeable and friendly. I'm a coffee snob and I was very impressed with the thoughtfulness of their approach. Can't wait for Sunday coffee tastings.

I'm kind of disappointed that I even have to write this review. I made the hour long trip down to SF to be able to go to the store and pick up a new EKG+ kettle. I was so excited to get one finally. I've have seen so much good press about it. I figured with being locked inside so much of the last year it was time to treat myself. The next morning when I went to go use the kettle for the first time and the Bluetooth did not work on it. I played around with it for a bit but grew kind of frustrated. The Bluetooth feature knocked the cost of this kettle up to $200 and it didn't work. I emailed customer service to see if they had any ideas and what they told me I had already tried. It took a few days to hear back because I guess all customer service people are part time. They told me to send it back and I'd get a replacement. I got this thing on April 7th and it's the 19th and no word if or when I'll even get a new one back from them. With the cost of their products I would expect them to work or at least look after their customers better. I was debating on getting the new grinder they made it looked and felt great in the store but if this is the service I'm to expect I think I might pass on it.

I really love fellow and their products and I want them to be very successful. Being honest, I am a little disappointed in the store front. We assumed an interactive and hands on; being able to use the kettles to brew coffee. We came from Seattle and this was one of our main destinations; this was by no means a bad experience just not what we anticipated.

My husband and I came here to find a birthday gift for my father in law. The products are all very beautiful to look at especially the tea kettles. Their selection of coffee cups are just beautiful aesthetically and made with the highest quality. The people who work there are very helpful and knowledgeable. I really liked the sparse open space feel about the store as well. It didn't feel crowded even though there were a fair amount of people inside. All the products are along the walls and there is a table in the center where they display the tea kettles. Very sleek and hip place!

Awesome shop on Valencia selling coffee equipment and beans! 1-hour Coffee Cupping Sessions are offered on Sundays where visitors can learn about how to evaluate coffee from its dry ground state to brewed. Highly recommend checking this shop out.

I received a Stagg electric kettle as a Christmas gift from my brother and all I can say is WOW, they really thought of everything needed in a perfect kettle for a morning pour over. It boils water very quickly, even more so than my gas range. The precision temperature means you can't over boil water and allows one to totally nerd out on coffee extraction technique. There is even the ability to trigger a timer on the kettle to time your pours. I am one satisfied customer.

I just had the best experience with Fellow! I bought a Fellow kettle through another retailer and the kettle stopped operating. The customer service was so so helpful and kind and sent me a replacement! I can't recommend this company enough!

Be incredibly careful with its stove-top kettle. The handle is not built for gas-stoves, despite the product manual not indicating that. The handle may catch fire, the plastic may melt or become disfigured, and the handle retains heat and may burn you. I have a pending customer service ticket with Fellow now and will update my review with what they say.

Went out of my way to find the place after it was recommended by a local roaster that I might find what I was looking for here. Walked into the store which was empty of customers and the person working there never even looked up from the screen she was looking at or said anything during my entire time there! For the prices they charge for simple kettles it should come with at least a hello and how can I help you? I'll buy something else somewhere else.

I had an issue with my kettle handle so I brought it in to see if there were any repair options. Hailey and Andres were super helpful and completely replaced the handle and thermometer for me - exceeding my expectations. Highly recommend the customer service here :)

Awesome coffee gear shop! They do free public cuppings in the back of the store, and the staff are Q graders (well, at least some are) so they have great palates and know their stuff. Great place to pick up a bag of coffee from a featured roaster, or to get gesr for you aficionado friends.

Employees are very welcoming, helpful and knowledgeable. I'm excited about brewing coffee at home with the beautifully designed products!

If you love making coffee this store is a must visit! This company designs great products. They have a space in the back of the store called the "Playground" where they teach classes. You can brew your own cup of coffee too!! After making a cup of coffee with the help of the guy working I decided to buy one of the scales they use. It is made by Acacia and it has a timer built in. I wish more coffee places had the vibe this store has, very welcoming and helpful. I left with a coffee brewing set up for my husband. We can now make better coffee than any of the coffee shops in our neighborhood(Outer Sunset).

What a gem! This is my new go-to for all things coffee. They have five new beans every month, which makes it easy for me to try new roasts from around the world. Their brewing products are sleek and well designed, too. In a saturated space, these guys found a gap and filled it perfectly. My 2018 wedding gift list will most definitely start here :)
