Welcome to Cafe Me, a charming coffee shop nestled in the bustling Financial District of San Francisco at 500 Washington St #102. If you’re searching for the perfect morning stop that balances quality, speed, and warmth, look no further than this delightful local gem.

Cafe Me is renowned for its delicious breakfast sandwiches, with an emphasis on quality ingredients served at a price that doesn’t break the bank. Whether you crave the rich flavors of their Bacon or Sausage options on an English muffin, or prefer to indulge in the satisfying Lox Bagel, you are in for a treat. The Low Carb Breakfast at just $5.50 is also a must-try for those looking to keep things light, while still savoring the comfort of a hearty meal before heading into the hustle and bustle of the city.

The atmosphere at Cafe Me is warm and inviting, with a strong sense of community embedded in every interaction. Customers rave about the fast and friendly service, which makes your morning coffee run not only efficient but also enjoyable. As Trevor Keating aptly mentioned, it’s the perfect spot for a grab-and-go breakfast, ensuring that you can be in and out in less than five minutes, even on those busy weekdays.

One of the standout features of Cafe Me is its covered pick-up area, allowing you to stay dry during inclement weather—an essential perk in this sometimes drizzly city. The speedy service doesn’t compromise on quality. R Byrd shared how he enjoyed the tasty sausage, egg, and cheese sandwiches on both bagels and croissants, remarking on their exceptional taste even without any condiments. This perfectly encapsulates the ethos of Cafe Me: straightforward, simple, and delicious food done right.

For those who may be passing by after a stroll around the striking Transamerica Pyramid or the serene Redwood Park, Cafe Me stands out as an ideal rest stop. With some reviewers expressing their hopes for extended hours, it’s clear that this breakfast nook has won over the hearts of many locals and visitors alike.

In a city where countless brunch spots vie for attention, Cafe Me rises above with its authentic offerings and genuine service. Be sure to stop by and experience for yourself the quick and delightful breakfast that makes mornings in San Francisco a little brighter.

Perfect spot downtown for some grab and go breakfast in the morning. Very friendly small business with great coffee and quick turn around times. In and out every morning in less than 5 minutes. Covered pick up area in case of weather.

Best little place for a breakfast sandwich in the FiDi. Service is super friendly (unnervingly so considering where it is in sf), and food is simple and delicious. Highly recommend the giant corned beef sandwich, then skip lunch.

I’ve been in the area working this week and stumbled onto Cafe Me on my walk to the office. The breakfast sandwiches are solid for the price and Chris is awesome.

Quick breakfast takeout, basically you stand and wait for your order but the service is fast. I had the sausage egg and cheese on both the bagel and croissant and both were excellent - even without condiments.

The croissant sandwich was very good, but beware of the price hike. It's nearly twice as much as some of the pictures suggest! Not such a good price-to-experience ratio anymore. Adding a recent photo of the menu, as of August 2021

Last time I came here, I purchased a hot chocolate. The quality was as expected for the price, and the service was fast and friendly. It is a cute breakfast shop, and I am glad it is in proximity to the Transamerica Pyramid and redwood park, a place I hang out often. I wish it was open a past 12PM, but this is not a complaint. I will come again. Overall, 4/5.
