We came for breakfast but we saw the bahn-mi and couldn’t stop ourselves.
It was so delicious!
Fresh bread and such a great and tender lemon grass chicken with great vegetables and seasoning, we are so happy we chose it.
Would definitely recommend this one ❤️

New favorite cafe? I’ve been meaning to come here for a while and I’m glad I finally did. On a foggy SF morning I was warmly welcomed into the unassuming cafe, where there was no line and the polite cashier waited while I contemplated my order. As a vegan, I was very happy to see soy milk as an option for my drink and tofu for the banh mi. Just make sure to ask if there’s aioli on the sandwich when ordering! Both were delicious, Contraband beans for my decaf latte and more of a tofu skin than regular tofu for my sandwich (pleasant surprise!). The price was very reasonable for Polk St. I wish I lived closer because Fueling Station is an absolute gem.

Tried this cafe because it’s nearby our hotel in SF. The food was good but the portion was quite small and for the price, I think it’s quite pricey. The seatings inside were nice. Their restroom was a bit clogged. There was water all over the floor and I hope they fix it soon because it’s pretty serious. One of the servers was very nice. He gave us a lot of butter when requested.

Hands down the most welcoming cafe I’ve discovered in SF so far. All the staff are super nice, especially Lulu! Great menu items at a very good price. The Focaccia bread on Fridays is phenomenal! Definitely worth stopping by if you’re near the Polk street area.

It’s a great place, everyone is super nice and the food and coffee is great.
The egg and avocado sandwich is the best. Really tasty and keeps you full for a long while.
I tried the waffle and it was delicious. I’m not the biggest fan of whipped cream, but the one they use was soft (not dense as from the can).

I’ve recently been really into Vietnamese coffee and saw this place online and wanted to try it. The service here is disappointing and my Vietnamese coffee tasted more like a watered down americano with a little bit of sugar. I initially walked into this cafe which had maybe like 6 people already situated with their food/drinks and were sitting down. I said good morning to the staff, and in return, I was stared at until she continued to make coffees; she didn’t say anything to me. Stood at the register without being acknowledged for several minutes, mind you, the woman making coffees was 2-3 ft away at this point, kinda awkward. No one ordered after me. When she called my order for 2 Vietnamese coffees, I approached the counter and she asked how she can help… as if i wasn’t the last customer who’s order she took, and just called out saying it was ready. Most likely would not return. The vibes are very off here.

This place for me is a little gem. The owner is very friendly, the food is delicious, and the people watching is great. Definitely enjoy the chagga-chino and the pork bahn mi.

Best mocha I’ve had in town so far and the breakfast sandwich is fantastic. I’ve been here three times now and it’s perfect every time. I don’t understand why this place is empty while a block away st franks has a line out the door.

My favorite Cafe on Polk St Russian Hill! Food is so fresh, healthy, and made well! Service is friendly neighborhood care and the staff and owners are super hard working and on point! I love everything I eat here.
I prefer to sit outside to get sun but inside is lovely to eat and read and meet friends.
The only drawback are when people “WFH” are noisy on their calls but we make do with our own earbuds.
I should’ve taken pics before eating but chagaccino and avocado toast w veggies & poached egg looked too good to wait!
