If you're looking for good drip coffee and amazing lattes, definitely try Fluid Cooperative. They also have Chaguccinos, which are made with mushrooms and are keto friendly!
I tend to try the lattes from their seasonal menu, and most recently I had one from their Girl Scout Series, which was the thin mints. It was so delicious! I had it cold too, so the mint was fresh but not overpowering. From time to time, they have a drink named after a Queero- a person who has positively impacted the LGBTQ+ community. They also have teas now, one that promotes estrogen and one that promotes testosterone. I got the one that promotes estrogen with honey, and it was what I needed on a very cold day.
Fluid is trans-owned business. And as the name says, it's a cooperative, so everyone gets a say. I like that from the traditional capitalist structures. And having a trans-owned business that's open to everyone is so important for the Tenderloin neighborhood, which is also the Transgender District.
Fluid is the first place you'll see at La Cocina Marketplace, and it's also where you can pick up online orders. Everyone I've encountered there, and at La Cocina in general, have been super duper friendly.
And also, the lids for their hot drinks are pink with a little plastic heart. I save those and place them around my desk and office. It's just something that makes me happy.
Their menu online is their staple menu, so definitely come in person to see the seasonal or new drinks. And check out their IG as well for up-to-date information and events.
