Four Barrel

I don't believe in giving away something for nothing, even to myself. So instead of just bussing down to the Mission to satisfy my curiosity about the newish Four Barrel Coffee store, I made myself jog the two miles there before indulging in a creamy hot latte.

Nothing in SF can yet compare to a single shot latte from Victrola in Seattle, but this came pretty close. Tight, dense foam partnered with a smooth, deep coffee with hints of burnt sugar.

I'm digging the interior, too. Coffee beans are sold in no-nonsense brown bags, and the menu includes 8 ways to have your coffee and an option to use soy instead of dairy. No tea, no soda, no hot chocolate--just coffee!
