Special Xtra

favorite espresso for when you're in this part of SoMa. they've also got a hot chocolate , for those days when you've had just one too many espressos and need a change.

Try the incredible Macau Iced Coffee at the newly opened Special Xtra 2 in SOMA. Heads up, this is one of those cash only places, but it's totally worth it! Read more

Drinks are no longer being served using Blue Bottle Coffee beans - they're using beans from Cento Coffee now. The New Orleans iced coffee and Macu drinks are still on the menu

I love these hidden little pockets of third wave goodness. Enjoy the Hip and formidable baristas with wand skills.

My little secret caffeine fix :) It's cash only and no seating, but try hanging out in nearby 100 Mission's public sun terrace or 2nd floor lounge .

The coffee is amazing, no matter how you order it. There's benches only a few steps away if you need to sit somewhere.

They do their drip coffee as a pour over for $2.75. Best spot in the neighborhood to grab a coffee on the way to work.

They have blue bottle here and some nice pastries . Good coffee spot . It's all to go though

No seating at this small coffee shop , but if you walk around the corner there's an awesome public outdoor space with plenty of bench seating .

Awesome coffee spot ran by a chill bunch of dudes always playing fresh beats.

Grab a New Orleans iced coffee and sit at the outdoor POPOS next door (between Minna and Mission.)

The baristas are very kind and the soy latte is one of the best I have had.

Hit or miss, but once and a while they froth the lattes perfectly. Will get the baristas name next time...

Cute streetside coffee shop . Expertly crafted concoctions . Try the Macau iced coffee .

The Macau (Uncle Kirk special) is the perfect afternoon pick-me-up. Try it with an extra espresso shot if you're bold enough

Get the short americano . Be nice to the baristas. Tip well . Watch out for the hobos in the alley.

Macau iced coffee is all you need to get through the morning.

A great coffee shop hidden away amongst the giant buildings

If you like your milk hot, you need to ask them to go a little further than they do generically. Still...some of the best coffee I've had

Drip coffee for $2.75. Cash only and it's for take-away only.

Superb espresso served in a nightclub

Really good Iced Coffee ! Get the macau!

Get the iced coffee . Black. Delicious and peppery!

Their honesty and awesome customer service

Try the new Macau iced tea (Thai iced tea ).

Best roasted beans make this the best drip coffee in SF

New Orleans Iced coffees served by the friendliest staff .

No wait at 8:30AM. Hole in the wall place (no seating). Serves blue bottle coffee !

Order a "NOLA" instead of saying "New Orleans Iced Coffee "

With the espresso , ask for the sparkling water back without ice

The best soy latte this side of the Bay .

Blue Bottle Coffee without the long lines (most of the time).

Macau Iced Coffee is bomb and not overly sweet

All shots served double ristretto.

vietnamese iced coffee if you can find it; not available at all Blue Bottle stands (boo)

Grab a great cup of coffe and watch them build the new transbay terminal.

Watch the transbay construction while you sip on some quality BB.

Go ahead. Have a cookie . You deserve it.

does not take amex! ???? they have a clover terminal ????

No longer serves Blue Bottle coffee - now serves Centro.

Baristas here are the best

More a coffee stand than a coffee shop . Beware - no seating!

Favorite lunch break coffee spot .

For the old/mid-timers, this used to be the smoking room for Harlot

After waiting in line for ten minutes they apparently ran out of decaf and refused to pour me a latte w/ one shot. Hmmm. I like snobby coffee but this is too much.

I tried New Orleans iced coffee - which was okay. Not sure about the hype

Great great thanks

hidden takeout place for blue bottle

Now serves Cento coffee .

It's cash only .
