http://www.atlascafe.net What's not to love about Atlas? With strong coffee and delicious California-style menu selections, this cool little spot, located in the heart of the Mission also has free Wifi, magazines to peruse, and local art featured on its walls. It offers several microbrews on tap, plus bottled beer and wine. Vegans rejoice -- the café offers a delicious selection of items like a beetloaf sandwich and cheeseless pizzas. Head to the back patio, which also welcomes furry friends, and show up on Thursdays and Saturdays for some free, toe-tapping bluegrass. More >>

415-467-2023
Like any good all-American diner, the Bayside is one of San Francisco's great greasy spoons (sic: the place is as trim and tidy as your grandmother's parlor). Waffles, burgers, biscuits and gravy, and other delectable classics are served in enormous portions and at exceptionally reasonable prices to a diverse crowd of old-timers, regulars, and Visitacion Valley locals. The house specialty is eggs Benedict with corned beef hash, home fries, and a fried banana, a gorgeous and waist-expanding production. The hilltop location offers fine views of San Bruno mountain, and the atmosphere is cozy, friendly, and homey. More >>

470 Post (at Powell) San Francisco, CA 94102
415-392-2030
http://www.cafelataza.com A decidedly unhip atmosphere plain tables and brighter-than-average lighting and a full menu of Mexican-influenced cafe fare (sandwiches, assorted salads, and breakfast dishes like chorizo and eggs) distinguish this joint from the many other Mission District coffeehouses offering free WiFi. That's right; At Cafe La Taza, the phrase "working lunch" takes on new meaning. Just try not to drip juice from your mango pork sandwich all over your laptop. The coffee is well-made, and the orange juice squeezed fresh daily. More >>

800 Post (at Leavenworth) San Francisco, CA 94109
415-441-4099
http://www.caferoyale-sf.com A regular series of free acoustic, jazz, comedy, and film events draw curious locals and tourists alike to this windowed cafe nestled between the Union Square, Nob Hill, and upper Tenderloin neighborhoods. Filled with sunlight during the day and candlelit at night, the ceramic hex tile floors and high ceilings go for a classy vibe, while a large semi-circular sofa cozies up the middle of the room. There's even a pool table, should you feel like knocking around a few billiard balls. Fans of pulp literature should also drop into Kayo Books next door, then saunter to the other end of the block and see the apartment building where Dashiell Hammett wrote The Maltese Falcon. More >>
