Hours unclear, expensive drink
My experience was that I paid $9 for a Diet Coke and a protein bar and was then asked to leave at 3 pm on a Monday. They should really put up a big sign with the hours so people don’t have this experience.

Amazing Vibe, Food, and Service!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! The vibe was amazing, complemented by beautiful Moroccan artwork all over the shop. The service was incredibly kind and personable. I highly recommend the roasted eggplant pesto wrap, which was SOOO good. It's also a great spot for working, with super accessible outlets for laptops.

Great atmosphere for work and relaxation
My experience at this restaurant was positive. I found the internet to be good, and the atmosphere was nice for concentration and work. They also have a cool patio, which would be great for warmer days.

Delicious Bites and Great Coffee!
My experience at the restaurant was fantastic! I tried the pb and j bagel and a cookie/brownie thing from the counter, and both were absolutely delicious. The coffee was also delicious. To top it off, I had some ice cream, which was a definite yes, buddy!

Neighborhood Gem with Delicious Food!
My experience at P Grounds was simply the best! I enjoyed a delicious wide variety of food, from salmon to ice cream and everything in between. This spot is a neighborhood gem that supports the community as a hub 💞. The cozy atmosphere and lovely staff made for a wonderful visit.

A Decade of Delightful Neighborhood Charm
My experience at this restaurant has been consistently wonderful for over a decade. It remains one of my favorite neighborhood spots, offering great coffee, tasty sandwiches and wraps, and a charming space with cozy seating and a lovely back patio. The friendly staff and welcoming owner truly make this place special.

Hidden Gem Cafe with Cozy Patio
My experience at this local spot was fantastic! It's one of SF's best hidden cafe gems. The cozy back patio and hangout area provided a wonderful atmosphere. The kid-friendliness was a definite plus, with children frequently visiting. The atmosphere was rated a 5, and the food received a solid 4. Service was also rated a 5.

Great Atmosphere, Laptop Policy Frustrating
I loved the atmosphere at this restaurant, it's a great place to be. However, it's not a good place to work on weekends. You are not allowed to use your laptop on weekends between 7 AM and 2 PM. They offer a broad food menu with simple cafe fare.

Senseless Laptop Rule Ruins Experience
I've been a loyal customer here for 9 years, and the staff even know me by name. However, a recent rule implemented by the owner, prohibiting laptops on weekends, has significantly impacted my experience. I visited on a Saturday at 11 am to work on my laptop, having purchased a snack and a drink. Despite being the only person in the back room, I was asked to leave. While it's not the staff's fault, I found this policy to be senseless. Consequently, I ended up going to Martha's instead.
