"This beautifully designed Russian Hill coffee shop is modern and bright. They also have small tables for working, and good pastry options if you need a snack. To drink, try anything with their house-made almond macadamia nut milk. Note that there are no outlets here, so arrive with everything fully charged." - lani conway, julia chen 1, ricky rodriguez, patrick wong
"Saint Frank is to San Francisco coffee as Dungeness crab is to San Francisco restaurants: when the time is right in the city, nothing else will do. Owner and founder Kevin Bohlin’s been on a spree, too, as he opened choux paradise Juniper on Polk Street in 2023 and a second San Francisco Saint Frank location in SoMa. Longtime fans return for the gorgeous service, minimal aesthetic, and tea-like Bolivian coffees." - Paolo Bicchieri
"Russian Hill’s sleekest place to get hopped up on espresso is Saint Frank. The minimalist cafe, with its shiny white counter and light wood accents, looks straight out of a Scandi design magazine. And you should hop in line and make your way down that counter, because their coffee and housemade almond macadamia milk are wonderful. There are a bunch of tables if you want to kick back and hang out for a while, as well as free wifi during the week—though there aren’t any outlets, so come fully charged if you want to get anything done." - julia chen 1, lani conway, ricky rodriguez, patrick wong
"A minimal interior leaves the focus on the coffee at this Russian Hill coffee shop, widely regarded as one of the finest in the city. Food is limited to just a few pastries, so go for the well-made pour-overs and espresso drinks, made with coffee sourced from independent producers." - Dianne de Guzman
