One of the most cutest little brunch spots on Bush St & Hyde St in San Francisco. Cozy and small but with a big heart that welcomes all. This spot serves brunch sandwiches and all sorts of coffees/lattes with a delicious pastry section. Love it! whenever I’m near this area in SF, I make it my go-to for my morning coffee!

I went to Java Cafe and really loved the coffee — it had an old-school taste that I truly enjoy. Everything was very clean, the staff were friendly, and the outdoor seating made the experience even better. A simple, cozy spot that I’d happily visit again.

Very good lavender latte. The lavender can smell and taste. This just makes a coffee to another level. The bagel is really good. The works bagel had perfect combination of flavors. The bacon in particular cooks perfectly. Crunchy, and not oily. The seating are little congested, but overall very good cafe. Staff is really funny and friendly. Best services cafe in SF. They also had toilet and provide water too. Love this Cafe so much while visiting in SF. Will certainly come back when I had chance next time. This cafe is at the corner. Parking available nearby. Also had public transport too.

Very good early grey latte (also known as london or Vancouver fog), and everything is fresh and tasty. I have tried both the english breakfast muffin and the California crust sandwich. Also quite quick service and good prices for this part of the city

Went here on a Sunday morning to try their pumpkin spice latte and ultimate breakfast sandwich with ham. Found out PSLs aren’t for me but the sandwich was totally worth it. The first few bites when it was hot and drippy were immaculate, and as it cooled down the taste from the croissant came out more and more. And to top it off, while it looks small, the sandwich completely filled me up! Highly recommend you take your time with your meal here and enjoy some people watching or chit chat.
