The Grind Cafe - San Francisco

Whats kind of sad is I walked into this place thinking i was going to the juice place next door. Wamp wamp. Thats what happens when you are hung over! I ended up having a banana/orange juice/ice blend which was basic but cold and delicious. Ha. Then I had a veggie melt and while it did the job i can't say i ever order it again. Lots of onions, crazy melted cheese. The fries that came with it were of course not good. But, there is no way that after this item you would still be hungry. The space was nice for breakfast: both indoor and outdoor space. Patio wasn't cute by any means but hey you could breath fresh air. Also the cashier was nice. I would go there hungover again but i'd prefer acai bowls and the juice shop that supposedly exists.

We live pretty close by to this place so decided to stop by for a pre-football breakfast last week. I had no issues at all with this place other than it was pretty expensive for what is a pretty unassuming cafe place. But I enjoyed the food and the service was good and they even had a TV for sports. I got an english muffin egg breakfast sandwich and we got champagne for mimosas. All in all a good little neighborhood joint. Very quiet as well.

The salmon bagel is perfect. Fresh open faced like it should be always be.served with some lemon wedges The staff are always very friendly and pleasant The atmosphere is exactly what you see when you walk in the door basic and clean

Come for the service, stay for the food. I seem to have fallen into the habit of having breakfast out every weekend and The Grind turned out to be an excellent choice. This is one of those places where the menu is on the wall so you order at the counter and they bring you your food. The lady girl person woman at the front counter was absolutely delightful. She even apologized because she was in the middle of making a fresh pot of coffee. I will wait until the end of time for fresh coffee, not a problem. I ordered a waffle and bacon. It was early (8:30 or so) so my breakfast was out in less than 10 minutes. The bacon was excellent, three big slices perfectly done. The waffle was good as well. It could have used maybe a little sprinkle of nutmeg or some such thing to up the flavor but it was definitely edible. In addition to the wall menu, the front counter is literally covered in baked goods. If you're looking for a coffee to go and something sweet to go with it, this should be just the place for you. Yep, I'll be back.

Live in the neighborhood and this place is always packed! It's not gourmet but it's very good for what it is. Anything you want for breakfast they probably have on the menu. Service was fast coffee was hot (not good but hot) and my ham and eggs craving was satiated. Only complaint was that it was pouring and so windy outside but they kept the front door open so our food got cold fast.
