Amazing shop! The coffee is delicious, and they have a unique turmeric ginger flavor right now! The shop is full of gorgeous art, and surrounded by neat projects like a garden, a beautiful mural, lots of seating, and other art! There’s also a little library too!

This place is a community hub. Big thumbs up. The owner is awesome and their dog Dino is super smart. There's a pretty good sized free library, and Dee gave me a book about birth doulas, something I'm interested in. There's a front row view of a collective neighborhood art garden project/installation, where the whimsically extraordinary entrance is framed by an up-cycled metal gate, a creation of the accomplished sculptor Dana Albany. Hey Neighbor Café puts Portola on the map of places to visit in SF.

The espresso is perfection! 10/10!!! The staff was so kind and attentive! The barista made a truly an exceptional Espresso… and then did it again! I so appreciate the attention to detail, whether it’s the mugs, the local artisan crafts for sale, the food, the sweetness given to all the customers. Even though I’m not a local, I felt very welcomed —somewhat of an anomaly these days at high-end coffee shops. The ube toast was a revelation in simple yet exquisite flavor. Expertly toasted, fresh butter… Just all-around lovely. A tiny location that is worth a stop if you’re anywhere nearby.

I love the coffee; I ordered a cappuccino, and the temperature was on point. However, I didn’t feel very welcome, even though it wasn’t rush hour. Parking was difficult, but after I managed to get a spot, it was worth it.
