Ann's Doughnut Sandwich Shop

Cannot recommend this place enough. I love Victor and Lisa. This place is a staple and hidden gem in the excelsior. Been coming here since my middle school days. I am now 30 lol. They are by no means stingy with their food. You won't find these portions at IHOP or Dennys. Fast and friendly service, fresh hot food, homey feel. Can't beat that. Check them out ASAP. They are CASH ONLY.

*super important, they open at 7:30am- not 7:00am*This place is so quaint and for those that love a good diner feel. It was a misty and cold morning and this place has just a homey feel. I am assuming our server/cook was Ann? So sweet and kind. Everything is made to order and right in front of you. It's kind of like a makeshift version of shogun or ichibans. Prices feel refreshingly chewy considering all chaos with inflation. Totally worth the stop.

I really, REALLY enjoyed this place. Great hole in the wall diner. They kept my coffee filled and I left very full.Parking is street parking, and this is strictly cash only.The house chicken was delicious and dark meat.I will come again for sure. Took off a star because I am pretty sure I was overcharged - my bill only had the total of $23, no details, and I don't see how they got that based on what I ordered.

It's been awhile since my last visit. I was in the neighborhood and had a hankering for pancakes. I finally got the man's name who works there, Victor. He greeted me and welcomed me by saying good to see you again! Food is great as usual. Unfortunately there was a drunk customer (mind you it's still morning) who left w/out paying. Gotta love SF. Anyways, check out this Mom&Pop breakfast place. Simple but good!

A cherished neighborhood old school greasy spoon breakfast spot in the Exelsior District of San Francisco. The food is made to order, delicious, and affordable with Ann herself usually pouring your coffee and making sure everyone is having a good morning.

The service in this place is amazing! I've been visiting for quite a while and it never disappoints. It has a welcoming and very homely vibe to it, i recommend it for people who like comforting ambiance while eating. The owners? usual workers? are an elderly couple who are so so sweet and their cooking is amazing. They make your order in front of you and are very humble with offering more coffee, tea.. and it's not of extra charge, truly an affordable and genuinely good time.Me and my boyfriend went for valentine's day and it was a nice experience, i forgot my umbrella and didn't notice until 5 minutes after their closing hours but still went to knock. The older gentleman, although they had already closed, still opened the door and gave me my umbrella.. he told me he tried going after us after he noticed we left my umbrella but we were out of sight. :) Overall: good food, good price, good ambiance and very good costumer service + very hygienic and cozy

I love this place! To be clear, it's the opposite of fancy, complete with old linoleum flooring and countertops with cracks in them. But, it's perfectly what you'd expect of a local, mom-and-pop breakfast diner. It's Kryptonite to the SF fancy breakfast craze. It's inexpensive, dishing up large helpings of hotcakes, eggs, and hash browns, all prepared exactly like they should be. The owners are friendly and get to know the customers. It's the kind of place where someone walks in and says, "I'll have the usual." It's my new go-to place for solid American breakfast!

Classic short order breakfast shop. No frills generous potions basic fare. Everything was just as expected and well made. Felt like I traveled through a time warp. So fun to sit at the counter and watch them do their thing. I will be back!

Ugh I miss this spot! The owners are so sweet, and you really get a bang for your buck here. I loved coming here for a ham and eggs breakfast, plus a cup of coffee. The owners always have a newspaper for you to read and enjoy chatting with you. Support this great local business when you're in the area - just remember to bring cash.

Best hole in the wall spot in the E. I've been going to Ann's for years, probably since middle school. I'm 29 now. This place still has the best prices and big portions! It definitely blows ihop, dennys and all those other breakfast chains right out of the water. Lisa and Victor are always so welcoming. They never skimp on their meat and their hash browns are to die for. They are cash only which is fine by me. I love putting people onto this delicious little breakfast diner. If you ever come across this place do not hesitate! You won't regret it. My go to is their #5
