The perfect coffee shop. Great drinks, great food, a sprawling space that's never too crowded. They overheard it was my birthday today and treated me to a drink, which was very generous too. Highly recommended.

Best vegetarian sandwiches I've ever had in my life. They doubled in price in just a few years though. Still somehow worth it because they are that good! Its a cozy spot, a rare gem.

May 2025 Industrial stylized cafe in Mission District provides updated drinks and meal options. Konbucha on tap and a good place for coffee. Community vibe and relaxed seating. Lots of meetups and remote workers.

10/10 working cafe. Fantastic atmosphere. Host does not rush us out after closing. Super kind, great coffee, I’ve also heard good things about the kombucha on tap. Super happy with my Friday afternoon here

Cool place to grab a bite and get work done. Laptops/screens are not frowned upon which is great. They have patio seating which was notoprndue to the weather. Will go back for sure.

I've been coming to Atlas for years as a place to work and enjoy time with friends. The food is great for the price and the coffee is excellent. Patio is a nice vibe and the interior space has free (very fast) wifi and plenty of seating.

I love Atlas, it was my local cafe spot for a long time. It has a mix usually of people working or chatting with friends. They also showcase local art and I've bought prints from artists that I've seen! Great spot to sit indoors or outdoors and enjoy a cup of coffee however way you want
