"At The Coffee Movement, your baristas are a team of extroverts who are hell-bent on asking you about your plans for the day—so if you’re in the mood to socialize, come here for caffeine with a side of small talk. It’s a pleasant way to start a morning, especially when coupled with their seasonal lattes spiked with vanilla lavender or ginger spice syrup. The original location in Nob Hill is also great, but we like the more spacious Richmond one with actual seating." - julia chen 1, lani conway, ricky rodriguez, patrick wong
