LOCATIONS
Hard Knox Cafe has two locations in San Francisco, one on Clement Street and another 3rd Street. I go to the one on Clement Street since they serve brunch as well.
Uber and Lyft are recommended since parking can be difficult around here especially during busy hours.
WAITING IN LINE
Upon entering, there is a wait list taped on the door itself with a pen dangling next to it. If you come for brunch, try to get there as early as you can because the wait can get pretty big.
AMBIENCE
This cafe has a southern charm filled with San Francisco nicknacks. The Clement locations has an upstairs and downstairs section. The Clement St. location only has two restrooms both located downstairs.
SERVICE
The staff is friendly and attentive. They brought our orders out quickly and was always there if we needed anything.
