Dead Eye Coffee Bar
415 Grand Ave STE 100, South San Francisco, CA
Crema's Take
“Dead Eye's signature drinks—like the Tahitian Vanilla latte and ube latte—showcase creative flavor work that actually tastes refined rather than gimmicky, backed by a genuinely passionate team that cares about quality at every step. The pastries are consistently excellent and the espresso-forward menu rewards sitting down to linger, though the heavily curated decor and small capacity mean you'll want to visit during quieter hours to actually enjoy the experience.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu.

Truly a hidden gem. It’s a small spot you might miss at first, but it’s 100% worth finding. The coffee flavors are unique and unlike anything I’ve tried elsewhere, and the pastries are consistently amazing. The staff are beyond friendly and always welcoming. My absolute favorite…
I went here in May 2025 very early on a Friday morning. I got a cup of hot chocolate - it was very delicious! I could find a spot to sit there and have my hot chocolate. The place did start getting crowded slowly after that. I don’t drink coffee a lot but I would have loved to…
I was in the area for work, and am so glad I found Dead Eye Coffee! I had the Tahitian Vanilla latte and the pistachio blackberry croissant, both of which were delicious. It’s a cute little spot but has limited seating, so I sat on the bar stools. The baristas were super nice,…
My first time here and everything was amazing. The service was super friendly and the ube latte was one of the best I’ve had. The pastry was fresh and delicious, and I even picked up their Ethiopia Limu beans because everything tasted so good. I’ll definitely be back.
