First time visiting and this is a great local spot. I would give the latte and the overall vibe of the cafe a 5, but the croissant a 3 (personal preference).The croissant was very large but not as flaky as I tend to like them.I think in the future I might try them for lunch, since they had beers and other drinks on tap that would make a pleasant afternoon.

An Outer Richmond gem, Simple Pleasures has been a mainstay since 1978, offering coffee, sandwiches, bagels and pastries. We ordered drinks and a sun-dried tomato pesto cream cheese bagel, which was delicious!Prices are very affordable and there are many regulars in the crowd of customers! It's a small bustling warm and friendly spot worth stopping by if you're in the hood.

I stopped in for the first time today with a friend and had a great experience. It's a charming cafe with lots of character with seating inside as well as a lot of spots to sit outside. I had a London Fog which was delicious and a sesame bagel with sun dried tomato cream cheese and veggies. It was toasted and very good! Veggies included olives, onions, lettuce, tomato. My friend enjoyed her coffee and bacon egg and cheese bagel. Staff was super friendly and they take credit card. Perfect way to start the morning and not far to walk to the ocean!

Neighborhood coffee shop. Comfortable, friendly. With a few tables and a park-let outside.

I recently visited this charming cafe and I have to say, it exceeded all my expectations. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm and homely atmosphere that made me feel right at home. The decor is cozy and inviting.Now, let's talk about the food--absolutely fantastic! The bagels were fresh, chewy, and had that perfect crust, and toppings to choose from. Whether you're in the mood for something savory or sweet, they've got you covered. The coffee was top-notch, rich, and perfectly brewed. For those looking to unwind, their selection of alcoholic beverages were equally great options too and a great selection of wines and beers.The staff was friendly and attentive, adding to the overall positive experience. I would definitely come back and recommend this spot to anyone looking for a place with great food, drinks, and an atmosphere that feels like home. A true hidden gem!

It was my first time here . This place is awesome. You can sit in this cafe and just look at the walls and take pictures. There are lots of pictures and posters and arts from years and years ago hanging all over the place . I loved it not because of their drinks and pastries but just because of its atmosphere. I ordered a Chagaccino ( which was ok ) and it was my first time trying it and I ordered one of their pastries. Employees were nice and friendly. I will definitely go back .
