Amazing food! Our first time trying Cafe Alma as we've been enjoying the newly renovated India Basin Park. We ordered online for takeout and the food was ready when we arrived. One thing to mention is there was an up-charge for ordering online via Grubhub. Next time we will order in person.

This is one of my favorite coffee spots in San Francisco. First and foremost, it's doggy friendly. The staff are incredibly sweet although there have been few handful of times I've visited. They have a standard selection of cafe drinks and a delicious selection of sandwiches and other food items. Parking is ample, free, and unrestricted. It's almost always sunny in India basin which makes the space really nice to work out of - lots of fresh air (high ceiling/garage door opening warehouse setting) and sunshine. Thank you so much!

I'm so very happy. The cafe is in a large, I mean really large, industrial space. Plenty of free street parking. I'm chilling in a comfy chair, with a view of a neighborhood I've previously only passed through on my way to the annual Open Studios. (That's another review, put it on your calendar). I'm guessing the Cafe site used to be a fire station, with its huge open garage door, big enough for a very large truck. 9am on a Wednesday, there's a woman reading a book, no laptop village! Bonus points for that. The patrons seem to be locals, with a lot of construction workers picking up coffee to go. Cafe & Avocado Toast: 5 Stars: * toast that's actually toasted! * You can eat with your hands. * good flavor profile * ingredients don't compete with the avocado. * presentation * cafe ambiance * friendly service I was worried about the seaweed topping, but surprised I really liked it. Adds a salty pop which doesn't interfere with the mild, creamy avocado. I did scrape some of it off though. Bacon was yummy, chewy, took off some of the fat 'cause I'm a picky eater. About that giant garage door essentially making the cafe open air. Dress accordingly. 5 star experience. Destination dining. I'll be back.

Has everything you could want from a cafe. Friendly staff, amazing menu, and a calm atmosphere. (The wifi, outlets, and public bathroom are a plus too!)

This is a germ hidden in the hood ;) food is yummy and nice presentation even with take-out order. Parking is easy there. They even have an area for local artist to leave their item to sell. It's a self-service cafe. Simple and open environment , good for meet up and work remotely.

The food at Cafe Alma is top-notch. The menu is limited but that's how you know the options that they do have will be delicious and made with high-quality ingredients. I got a chance to try a panini that came with pesto, zucchini, and cheese as well as a Caesar salad and it was amazing. All the ingredients came together so well and were made fresh so that the flavors really came through. The meal itself wasn't too heavy, even though they give you a generous portion of salad. Definitely a great place to stop by for a coffee and a bite to eat.

Absolutely 10/10 cafe. The ambiance, the food, the drinks, the service; all on point. This is my favorite place to get a quick lunch or tea. My favorite is the BZT, bacon zucchini and tomato. Not only are their offerings delicious but I really appreciate their ethos. They truly support the neighborhood by regularly hosting workshops and events. Last I was there I saw them collabing with shipyard art just down the block. My only wish is that they would stay open later! They close pretty early at 2pm.

Cafe Alma's "Wedge Salad" ($12) is good enough to eat two days in a row so I did. Upon visit #2 I brought an acquaintance, who ordered a different salad on the menu, and she concurred: Cafe Alma makes a great salad. We can though, split hairs over whether their Wedge Salad is any sort of Wedge Salad at all. I've always known a Wedge Salad to start with a large wedge of Iceberg Lettuce and here the lettuce is laid out on the plate. And it's Romaine, not Iceberg. And who cares at all? It's that good. Get it. When I suggested Cafe Alma to said acquaintance she asked if they had outdoor seating and I had to pause a moment. "The whole thing is kind of open to the elements" I responded. I can't say what set-up they employ in Winter, but right now the entire front of the place - and it's a very big front - is wide open and most tables sit under a very high roofline and feel outdoors, with plenty of space between each. If someone had introduced me to Cafe Alma (I found it on my own) I'd be impressed by several things. The Bayview-Hunters Point location would first tell me that this person was someone who sought out good finds in locations a bit off the beaten path. Second, with its shelves of curated, artist-produced knick-knacks and eye-catching tilework I'd think that person had a nice eye for design. And finally, I'd know that they have very good taste because this is a restaurant after all, of the fast-casual ilk, and their salads are sheer joy. I am left to assume that the rest of the menu is equally delicious but I know I'll never know. Cafe Alma's Wedge Salad is it for me and I'd be lying were I to say I had any intention of trying anything else on that menu. Good place

This place is great! Wonderful grilled sandwiches and I particularly enjoyed my lemonade. Very refreshing. I think they have a strawberry one as well. I can't wait to go back and try some of their other items such as their bagels or salads. So happy to have this cafe in the neighborhood- much needed and a wonderful place!
