Q Specialty Coffee is on another level. The coffee is consistently incredible.. rich, smooth, and clearly made by people who actually care about quality. It’s always busy for a reason, but what really impressed me is how fast the line moves. Even when it’s packed, you’re never waiting long, and the staff keeps everything flowing effortlessly. The matcha deserves its own shoutout — perfectly balanced, creamy, and not overly sweet. You can tell they use high-quality matcha and actually know how to prepare it properly. Great vibes, great people, and top-tier drinks. Easily one of the most popular spots around, and it 100% lives up to the hype. I’ll be back again and again.

Q speciality coffee has a relaxing and cozy atmosphere , with a nice and welcoming crew of employees. I personally thought they had the best matcha ever, the only down sides were the fact that they couldn't heat up my muffin and the whipped cream on my matcha had a sour/lime taste to it.

Nice sleek coffee shop. There’s some decent space for seating and a variety of drinks and snacks. I had a mocha ☕️ and felt like the espresso over powered it a bit with a bit more of a dark roast flavor.

Best matcha in San Fran! Recently & newly opened. The presentation is amazing and really captures the attention. They have a matcha whip that is citrus in flavor. They also have a selection of coffee from different places. Definitely a must visit.

The shop is on a corner with lots of natural light—beautiful space. The woman who helped me was very friendly and went over a few drinks with me. The hot specialty coffees were not available as the machine was out of service so I had an Americano with oat milk, which was delicious. The place was quite full, and there were no seats available, so I had to go outside to enjoy my coffee.
