Crema's Take

The Nosh Box is a thoughtfully curated neighborhood gem in SoMa where quality trumps quantity—whether you're ordering their standout cold brew, a meticulously crafted seasonal pastry, or one of their beloved sandwiches like the juicy tomato that keeps people coming back. The space strikes that rare balance between a quick grab-and-go spot and a welcoming place to linger, with staff who clearly care about every detail from their house-made jam to their iced matcha. It's the kind of place that makes a random morning stop feel like discovering something precious.

Wow. I randomly stopped in here one morning and what a treat. I ordered the beet sandwich (for lunch) and couldn’t help myself had half of it for breakfast. So delicious omg. Definitely a great spot. ✨🫶🏻

Nosh Box is a total gem in SOMA. I ducked in for a quick coffee while I was in the neighborhood and immediately got pulled in by how thoughtful the menu is. You can tell they care—about the food and about the people they’re serving. Friendly staff, genuinely welcoming vibe, and the food punches way above its weight. In Michelin terms: definitely “worth a detour” in my book, and honestly probably “worth a journey” (at least from Marin). I liked it so much I went back a couple days later just to try more. They make everything in-house from scratch, and they have a bookshelf packed with cookbooks—some signed by the chefs—is a tell you’re about to eat something legit. Highlights: • Baked Feta with house-made focaccia: hot, bubbling, full of flavor, and absolutely covered in herbs, seeds, and spices. • Carrot cake (excellent). • Bearrs lime curd bar: more please. • Cinnamon walnut ginger sour cream coffee cake: generously portioned and so good. • Burnt orange + butterscotch latte: not too sweet, complex, rich. I normally take my coffee Black, but I had to try this and was richly rewarded. If you’re anywhere nearby, go. If you’re not, it’s still worth making the trip.

This gem of a place popped into the neighbourhood and I can't get enough! Although the menu isn't expansive, the quality is through the roof! From their coffee and tea, to their breakfast sandwich, pastries, and quiche! You definitely won't regret checking this place out!

Tomato sandwich goes so hard….incredibly juicy and perfectly seasoned. Hard to eat in the best way, I was deliriously slurping. Seasonal pastry (fig & cream cheese) was delicious too! My iced matcha was perfect. I believe the owners helped me and they were so incredibly warm and welcoming! Spots like this are so hard to come by. It’s authentically local and so SOMA. If you find yourself walking Folsom, I cannot recommend Nosh Box enough!

Cute coffee shop in the heart of SoMa with friendly staff. Great place to get coffee and homemade treats -- definitely get your scone "dressed" (toasted with butter and house-made jam). On my last visit the scones had a crunchy amaretti topping that paired great with the fresh peach jam inside. Owner was very nice & let me keep my things there while I ran a local errand. Look forward to trying more of their evening food program.
