They pour their drinks till they are right. Try the "naked" or "crotchless" shots. The creme is amazing. They care about the roast and they care about the pour.

This is seriously the best coffee house in the Bay area. Their drinks are like no other. They roast their own coffee and create drinks that are works of art. Great place, wireless, art, and great serv...

I never realized that espresso didn't have to be bitter until I had espresso from Barefoot. It was naturally sweet, creamy, and rich. I had to ask if sugar was added -- it wasn't. This is the way espresso is...

Barefoot roasts their own coffee fresh almost every day. They are almost all organic and fair trade and we love that. They definitely serve the best coffee in town IMHO. There is a reason Barefoot is so famous...

Barefoot is just awesome! As a frequent coffee drinker, I know what I like and the places to avoid. Barefoot has quickly become one of my regular stops. I have lived all across the country and can tell you...

Totally awesome. The baristas are real artisans there- look at the beautiful foam pattern on the cafe latte on their home page. I had one of their special drinks, a "Voodoo" which is a cafe latte...
