What People Are Saying About Farleys

The Editor

Gina Goff

Citysearch

In Short – In addition to serving huge bowls of espresso, tea, cider and coffee--made with whole milk or none at all--this Potrero hangout strives to build community by holding events like artist-of-the-month showcases. The interior is stripped-down but homey, boasting assorted amenities like board games, well-thumbed magazines and a guest journal, where customers can write poetry, draw sketches or browse the entries from over the years.

Getting vibed at farley's

by cafe23 at Citysearch

This place used to be great, been coming here for many years with no problems,

but as of late its been badvibe central....bet I am not the only one catching these waves.

My favorite was when I got a mocha and they put a big dollop of smug pissyness right on

top without me even asking.

This place my newest home away from home. Farley's I love you!

by HowardinPotrero at Citysearch

The coffee is delicioso, and the free wi-fi and abundant outlet space has made this place my newest home away from home. The overflowing magazine walls, also the perfect diversion from actually getting work done. But, my productivity is saved by the tasteful selection of music and the mild din that suffuses this place, providing just the right atmosphere for my intellectual juices to percolate.

As a member of the work-from-home crew that haunts Bay Area coffeehouses, I am proud to have hung my temporary shingle at Farley's. Even if I don't "dress to make like I don't want to impress," when I show up at this hipster haven, one of the staff members is always there to serve me up my one-size fits all coffee with a vegan cookie on the side.

  • Pros: everything
  • Cons: nothing

Farley's is the best coffee shop!

by sittinnpretty at Citysearch

I'm the kind of person who sees a Starbucks and looks for a rocket launcher. So when visiting a friend I discovered Farley's. The staff was great and the various coffee drinks reminded me of being on a street corner in Paris. If your ever on Portreo Hill and need a cup of liquid heaven, then Farley's is your place. they also have an amazing magazine selection, like a newsstand in LA or NYC. Its Fantastic!! You can read the mags that are for sale while your sitting there having your coffee.

  • Pros: COFFEE, sweets, magazine selection, great music
  • Cons: nothing
