Café Life San Francisco: A Guidebook to the City's Neighborhood Cafés

By Roger Paperno and Joe Wolff

Book Overview

Superbly photographed, this book showcases San Francisco's unique and tasteful cafes

San Francisco, nestled between the Pacific Ocean and the San Francisco Bay, is one of the best cities in the world for finding a fine neighborhood cafe to sit down in with a notebook (or a netbook) and a steaming mocha and artisan pastry. Explore all the neighborhoods of San Francisco-from the Mission to North Beach, from downtown to just north of the city, over the Golden Gate Bridge into Marin-through its homegrown cafes.

Wolff and Paperno have been highly praised for their guides to cafe life: Wolff, for his portraits of the owners whose creative visions have made these unique places; Paperno, for his "richly evocative" photographs (Chicago Tribune). In this guide, Wolff and Paperno turn to the vital cafe life of their own beloved Northern Californian city, a place that, with its emphasis on the local, the organic, and the sustainable, has been teaching the rest of us how to eat and drink for a long time.
