Le Cafe du Soleil

Oh my .... J'ai trouvé le cappuccino le plus parfait! I have found the most perfect cappuccino in California! The salmon quiche was "C'était délicieux"! Great service and an unbeatable cafe vibe with plenty of outdoor seating and the iconic music from the 30s and 40s is charming. I will definitely return to Le Café de Soleil when I find myself in San Francisco.

Lovely corner cafe. Great smooth french music inside and plenty of space. We had their french toast, coffee, tea and an almond croissant and it was all very tasty. The service is very friendly, quick and attentive. We would definitely be back :)

This review is long overdue - I am ridiculously grateful this place exists :) Café du Soleil feels like a place that just... hugs you. It's such a cozy, welcoming spot and just feels good to be in. The coffee is always great, the food is fabulous, and the staff are all good people. It’s the kind of place that makes the neighborhood better and elevates everything around it - for example, it's where I feel like I've finally arrived home after I come back from travels. My sense is that this is true for many others; there are so many regulars that it's safe to say it's the Lower Haight/Duboce Triangle neighborhoods' third place. The coffee (especially the cortado crafted by Lars) is top-of-the-shelf. The food is equally fabulous - you'll be delighted by their avocado toast and eggs, not to mention their french toast. It's a special place for the whole community around it and a place that assuages the transiency of San Francisco - not just through the cozy vibes, the friendly service, the consistently delicious food and coffee, but also through their 20+ years in business making everyone feel at home here. Based on personal experience, Cafe du Soleil will not only feed you, the vibe here will lighten up your day and, once you inevitably become a regular like everyone else, will gift you lifelong friends (everyone here is so nice!). It's a place that I'll always keep coming back to for what I hope to be many, many more years ahead.

Food was so good!!! Might be the best French toast I’ve had—perfect crust on the outside and almost custard-y inside. And the chicken bacon Gruyère sandwich was savory and delicious. Note: everyone in the cafe was on the laptops, so it seems like lots of ppl come here to work

Long overdue review for my favorite neighborhood cafe in SF. Cafe du Soleil is one of those places that is magical no matter the time of the year. Though the Equator coffee beans and healthy salads are always fantastic, what the Cafe really excels in is its authenticity and charm. The owners and staff treat their long time customers like family. No matter what’s happening in the outside world, you can expect to leave Cafe Du Soleil caffeinated and smiling. You can’t put a price on a place as charming as this.
