Crema's Take
“This corner cafe punches way above its weight with Latin-inflected breakfast dishes like crispy chicken and waffles with an addictively deep red sauce and birria pupusas that justify a detour across the city. The coffee is genuinely excellent and the service moves fast, making it perfect for both a quick caffeine hit before work and a leisurely breakfast with friends. Run by a family with serious San Francisco pedigree (the former owners of a beloved pre-game sandwich spot), Aroma Buena feels like the kind of neighborhood institution that actually earns its loyal following.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A quick-grab, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly. Parking available.

Great service, quick food delivery. Delicious egg, cheese, spinach and bacon burrito!

Piccolo Pete's was the place to go for a good sandwich before a game at Candlestick Park. A local neighborhood institution gone. I'm glad this family opened the Aroma Buena Cafe. Decent prices- ($3.50) for a cappuccino and ($2.25) for a small cup of coffee. Very wonderful…
