I was looking for a Blue Bottle location nearby and discovered this. Didn’t realize that this even existed as it’s off Hayes. I got there just before the main rush. Line seems to move quickly.

Original Blue Bottle location! If you like Blue Bottle the this is worth a visit. Still operates out of a garage! As usual, minimal frills.

delicious Hōjisha latte : this was my first time trying it as a friend recommended it to me and wow, did I enjoy this. Service is very fast even tho there was a bit of queue. Atmosphere-wise, the store looks very messy behind the counter but being a bit hidden inside a street with nowhere to sit makes it feel like you found some kind of secret store :) I recommend it, but maybe go to another of their stores if you are looking for a comfy place to sit inside while enjoying your drink.

Some of the best coffee in town. Every Blue Bottle location seems to just do it right… We tried the Iced Nola Latte and the Gibraltar (not on the menu - remnant of a flat white). Both were made to perfection and the espresso here is to die for… craving it as I write this down and definitely going to be back…

I got a small latte with heavy cream for $7! No options for any flavoring besides a mocha or sugar. No sugar free besides just don't add no sugar!

Coffee was good but I'm missing this place's original charm. Cashier was curt and I was served a 12 ounce when I requested 8. Sad that it came with a pricetag and I wasn't gutsy to enough to just return the milked-down drink.

Blue bottle has opted to oat milk and increased its price. Other milk others are available upon requested.

Love Blue Bottle coffee...it is smooth and enjoyable and this walk up cafe/kiosk is great for a Sunday treat with my dog. However I look forward to the opening of a closer Blue Bottle on South Van Ness soon!

Unique location, nice area to walk around, and reliably great coffee. Don't love that they're owned by Nestle, but the staff here are amazing and so skilled. The wait's never bad, even if there's a line. Worth a visit if you're in the area!

The original blue bottle. Staff is friendly. They do not have free samples.

Excellent coffee and friendly service! I love their cappuccino! They do get busy at times, and they don’t have enough staff—yielding long wait times occasionally. I just walk on by and go to a different coffee shop when they get busy. The pastries are not worth the high prices (lower quality and very tiny sizes—I was very disappointed with their chocolate croissant), so don’t waste your money on those. But the coffee is great! Recommend!

This place is so cute! Serves right out of the storefront & is situated on the cutest landscaped alley. Great coffee in a great spot to sit after walking!

Same OG outpost in what is now a battered Linden alley. Although the city and local organizations have tried to maintain the area around the several shops on this one way street its not a pleasant scene to linger over your morning coffee at this point in history. Not dangerous, just a sharp seedy contrast to the shiny Blue Bottle kiosk that offers everything coffee. Espressos and cortados are consistently excellent. Seasonal roasts depend on your taste. Usually they have some baked goods and canned cold coffee drinks as well. Worth a stop if you're in the area and want to see where a quasi historical location.
