Galinette
3554-3560 Taraval St, San Francisco, CA
Crema's Take
“Galinette is a charming French bistro that doubles as a specialty coffee destination, perfect for those who want to linger over a leisurely morning or afternoon without feeling rushed. Beyond the excellent traditional coffee drinks, the kitchen shines with classic French fare like jambon beurre sandwiches, beef tartare, and French onion soup, paired with thoughtful wine selections and quality pastries that make it equally compelling for a slow lunch or casual meetup. The genuinely friendly service and inviting atmosphere—especially on the outdoor patio—create the kind of space where you'll naturally abandon your afternoon plans to stay longer.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu. Open late. Family friendly.
