They have the best coffee, along with Blue Bottle South of Oregon! And also I'd just like to say that I was the first person to write about Ritual / Stumptown coffee!! http://eggbeater.typepad.com/shuna/2005/08/ritual_coffee_r.html or http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/2005/07/ritual-coffee-roasters-living-here.jsp

I hope these genius barristas open up a branch of Ritual Roasters where Torrefazione Italia used to be on Montgomery. Please do it----I don't want to stand in line at Peets anymore.....I don't like Starbucks-----Have pity on the corporate drones! We need good coffee, too. Tooker and Hassi, you are our last hope--------

Love the article, love the space, but, at the risk of missing the point, I most love the exceptionally attractive (say "haught") barista crew.

Nobody's going to say it? They have the best coffee in the Mission, for sure, and some of the best service. And cool furniture. But they need savory food--a guy can only live on caffeine and sugar for so long.

I feel bad for saying this because my usual haunt is Muddy Waters, but Ritual Roasters makes a mighty good cup of joe. Actually, a tre-mendous cup of joe, so good they do little designs in the late that makes you feel guilty for ruining the design by drinking it. Just like a good pint of Guiness. I would also like to say that I'd love to hang out there as it's a really nice looking coffee shop but it's always too damn busy.
