Flywheel Coffee Roasters – The coffee is roasted in house. Love the beautiful view of the park, and there is always cool art on the walls. Don’t miss the cute patio!

609 Cole St.

Coffee To The People – An awesome place to grab a coffee or pastry and sit to journal or work for a little bit. Cozy Couches for catching up with friends.  Yummy food and friendly staff.

Mi Familia Taqueria –  Best place to get a burrito in the Haight since 1986. Very filling! 

1797 Haight St. 

Vegan Burg – Love the mushroom burger with broccoli if you are trying to be healthy (and you can’t go wrong with the fries). The vegan soft serve ice cream is also a delicious treat!

Abu Salim – Get the loaded shawarma fries and the cheese filled falafel. Absolutely delicious!

Sandys Muffs – Newcomer to Haight Street and instant hit. Muffuletta sandwiches and classic southern sides. They even have a vegan mushroom muffuletta that is to die for.

Dragon Eats – I love the pork banh mi sandwich, but they also have super popular vegan options and spring rolls too for something lighter!

Escape From New York Pizza – If you love garlic, try the potato pesto pizza. If you don’t love garlic you really can’t go wrong with anything else on the menu. Giant slices, fast service, open till 2 AM!
