Dead Eye Coffee Bar - South San Francisco, California

Dead Eye Coffee Bar is a terrific local establishment that excels in the creation of marvelous coffee drinks. My latte in a mug was a delicious way to start my morning, as were the wonderful pastries 🥐.

This is a true coffee bar with stand up counters if you want to sip your coffee inside.

Completely obsessed with their Tahitian Vanilla latte. I’ve moved to the east coast since first discovering this cafe but still make it a point to grab my morning coffee here when I am back in town. While I usually enjoy my lattes iced, I prefer their Tahitian vanilla served hot! Do not sleep on their ham & cheese croissant, it’s delivered fresh every morning & always the first to sell out for good reasons. Brian is lovely & seems to know his customers very well, a sign of a great local coffee shop. Highly recommend coming here!

Smashed ice in cold brew - bad idea, it’s melting much faster than big cubes. Maybe it’s not so bad, because cold brew is disgusting. Tastes like leftovers from yesterday's coffee from a roadside cafe.

Superb cappuccino and cortado prepared by an expert barista in clean minimalist space. Both beverages exhibited strong notes of expertly roasted beans with rich crema that lingered on the palate. The cortado exhibited an intoxicating taste that rivals the best we’ve ever tasted - and we sample plenty across the US and beyond. Much attention has been devoted to the interior which is adorned with live plants and decorated with tasteful combination of tile and natural woods which maximizes the small space.Should have hired the designer to do my kitchen. There is no seating on site. Barista Rowby is a master of his metier and efficiently serves a line of patrons, many of whom were welcomed personally by counter person Gigi. Pride of ownership bounds with a variety of fun stickers and branding item. Roasted beans are available on site which is a big plus for me. Dead Eye rises to the top echelon of Bay Area coffee establishments and deserves to be on your map.

Love this place. Hipster as can possibly be, and has to be the tiniest coffee shop I’ve ever stood in, but what they lack in square footage, they make up for with some excellent coffee - their Tahitian vanilla latte is absolutely delicious. They also have a rotating selection of freshly-roasted beans from interesting roasters (Devout and Proud Mary). Kinda spoiled to have such a great shop in the area - it’s a must-try if you’re a coffee person.

This place serves up all the essential drinks, with a couple more exciting drinks, and a couple of pastries. My basic almond milk latte was excellent and showed off some high-quality espresso. The chocolate chip scone was pretty good, large, moist, and balanced mildly sweet and buttery flavors well. This is a great little shop for a quick stop for fuel in the morning.

I went with my wife and my dog and we had some coffee. The mocha was really good, it’s really tasty. I also had a ham and cheese croissant, my wife had a flat white and an espresso.

It’s pet friendly. 🫶🏼

One of the best lattes I’ve had since living here! Really pretty and inviting environment. They have a lot of unique and tasty pastries as well. Highly recommend!
