Red Window Coffee

"Sitting in Red Window’s bright, colorful parklet and sipping on low-proof cocktails is perfect for group dinners or birthdays—it just feels like a party. Some drinks are mixed for you via a traveling bar cart, and you’ll want at least two orders of the crispy patatas bravas on the table. Throw in some golden-brown croquetas and top-tier jamón at this Spanish spot and you have yourself a night." - julia chen 1, lani conway, patrick wong

"It’s impossible not to have a good time at this Spanish restaurant in North Beach, between the bright window decals, flowing sangria, and patatas bravas that bring actual tears to our eyes. And better yet, they have a covered and heated parklet, so you won’t have to worry about becoming damp over the course of your meal if the fog decides to do its thing. You’ll still get low-proof cocktails—mixed and poured tableside via a roving bar cart—while you shuffle around plates of garlicky gambas, and cauliflower croquetas. Bring a date or use Red Window as a starting point before a night out." - lani conway, julia chen 1, ricky rodriguez
