Pumpkin spice latte! Tasted good after a bike ride around the city, I was just spinning through for a weekend. I loved the layout of the friendly store with a lot of great pastries and coffees, this is the type of place I would live at if I lived around here. Great service and nice people.

Spikes Coffee nailed my coffee and peanut butter protein bar like a gold medalist volleyball player securing a match point! After traveling for two days straight to finally arrive in San Fran, Spikes was my refuge. Open early, hot coffee, friendly people, chill vibes, good music, and convenient location. There are a couple small tables inside to have a date or chat with a friend with more seating outside.

I came here for some coffee while around Castro. It's a no-frills, old-school place where the people were pretty nice and took the time to explain how their menu works. I ordered a cappuccino, which was pretty strong and unsweetened. I'd come here again for a traditional espresso drink or to try one of their more unique offerings.

Another terrible experience with the morning women crew. Either train them on how to make a drink or fire them. Many bad experiences with that crew.

Stopped by for a late afternoon drink and was pleasantly surprised by the number and variety of looseleaf teas that Spike's carries. I always love it when coffee shops carry a serious variety of teas.Since it was a hot day, I got an iced oolong tea and a chocolate donut. Service was friendly and efficient. Prices are very fair.The oolong tea was so refreshing and I like that they didn't put too much ice. The donut was just okay (didn't taste very fresh).Don't think there's technically a public restroom, but the employees were so nice and let me to use the employee restroom in the back.Love their bulldog logo too! Will be back.

Instantly welcomed in this quaint little home to the best espresso in Castro. I got a customized drink order in under three minutes, home style hospitality on my first step into the door, and a comfy little bench to get some writing done. Make this place your regular sit & sip!

Beautiful neighborhood, friendly staff, and friendly neighbors. Spikes has a dog for their logo and they don't disappoint. Saw five dogs on the sidewalk and a man walked out from Spikes and gave them all treats. Not sure if he was the owner but he was gathered with some other neighbors inside when we arrived. Staff was kind offered recommendations on Oracle park food for us and were prompt. Good vibes.

This place has probably the BEST latte with oat milk ever. Get a small hot latte with oat milk--you won't regret it if you like deep, dark, and roast-y lattes. The latte flavor was very concentrated and rich (I love it), unlike Tartine's which was way too light and "dilute-tasting" for me! Blueberry scone is also good. Service is great and friendly.
