"This coffee darling, now with three locations in the city, is best known for their coffee flights and seasonal lattes. But don’t overlook the matcha. They’re not whisked to order, but the hot and iced versions still maintain a rich grassy flavor (we like to say yes to a bit of sweetener, too). Make your way down the assembly line and prepare for a chatty barista to ask you if you have weekend plans." - julia chen 1, patrick wong
"At The Coffee Movement, your baristas are a team of extroverts who are hell-bent on asking you about your plans for the day—so if you’re in the mood to socialize, come here for caffeine with a side of small talk. It’s a pleasant way to start a morning, especially when coupled with their seasonal lattes spiked with vanilla lavender or ginger spice syrup. The original location in Nob Hill is also great, but we like the more spacious Richmond one with actual seating." - julia chen 1, lani conway, ricky rodriguez, patrick wong
"There’s nothing as fine as sitting on foggy Balboa Street while the alchemists at Coffee Movement’s second (and greatest) location crank out the army of coffee ordered each morning. The flights are affordable, a chance to try one well-sourced coffee brewed three ways or to try three well-sourced coffees brewed one way. Plus, there are rotating coffee concoctions such as the Earl Greyhound made with filter coffee, grapefruit, Earl Grey tea, tarragon, elderflower tonic, and lemon balm." - Dianne de Guzman, Paolo Bicchieri
"There are few better coffee shops in San Francisco — maybe the West Coast — than the Coffee Movement. Strident hipsters will hike up Nob Hill until they die, but the new-ish outpost on Balboa Street has room to hang out, pastries from Juniper on Polk Street, and tremendous glass windows to capture any lingering San Francisco sun. Plus, the usual menu of innovative coffee drinks, such as the seasonal coffee cream soda, is available at this location, too." - Dianne de Guzman, Paolo Bicchieri, Eater Staff
"The Coffee Movement is serious about its coffee drinks, yet it manages to be accessible to the coffee-curious. Along with the usual suspects of coffee — namely, the espressos, drip coffees, cappuccinos, and lattes on the menu — there is a tasting flight of three different coffees, or one coffee prepared in three different ways, perfect for learning about caffeine preferences. There is also an espresso tonic for a cooling moment, seasonal drinks, and two tea offerings should one need a less caffeinated drink." - Paolo Bicchieri, Dianne de Guzman
