Java Beach Cafe

Seaside coffee

1396 La Playa Street
San Francisco, CA 94122-1019
+1 415 665 5282

Less boisterous than the nearby Beach Chalet and more low-key than the Cliff House halfway up a hill to the north, this is a snug place to sip some java and warm up after a stroll on always windy, usually chilly Ocean Beach. The decor has an appropriately nautical air, perfect for the avid surfers who make this their post-ride hangout. The food, served up by personable types who seem to be surfers themselves when off duty, is the usual mix of sandwiches, soups and pastries, all tasty, none expensive. It's a great place take a break and enjoy the view of a horizon that goes on forever.
