Noe Cafe, my go-to for a meeting and an easy coffee in Noe Valley
Order: Breakfast Sandwich
I love it. It's a really cool coffee shop in Noe Valley. They have two branches, the other one in Mission Bay, but the one I really like is Noe Cafe in Noe Valley. It's on Sanchez Street, one of the Slow Streets in San Francisco. They have a nice parklet, so you can really grab your coffee outside. They also have some inside tables that aren't always available, but the vibe is pretty good.
Occasionally during the week they bring a guy who sells tacos, wearing a big taco hat, and it's very kid-friendly and pet-friendly. It's the place where you hang out when you live in the Noe Valley area, but it's also visited by a lot of tech people and VCs.
I really recommend their sandwiches and their toast. The avocado toast is really good, and I usually get the breakfast sandwich. Other than the different coffees, they also have a selection of kombuchas, and they have a liquor license, so if you go a little later in the day you can also grab a beer. It's a great spot for a beer, and whenever there are festivities on Sanchez, the community and the ambience are really good.
Some other friends always say it's a very chill place and a great place for meetings, and I agree. It's my go-to place to have a meeting, or just to enjoy an easy coffee in Noe Valley.
Noe Cafe, the best place to have a coffee, chill and hang out with your friends in Noe Valley.
