“We don't yet have a Starbucks or Tully's on every corner, but even if that dread day does finally arrive, you'll still be finding quite a few of our readers at Farley's, on the north face of Potrero Hill, sipping and reading and murmuring in a boho setting that for many of us is what San Francisco has always been and will always be about.”

The Guardian, Best of the Bay, "Best Cafe Clientele"
"Farley's coffeehouse, atop Potrero Hill, is the best place other than the beach for hipsters to revel in unemployment. Even if you do have a job, Farley's is a good setting for telecommuting, the present-day job arrangement of choice."

"You'll never feel that you've overstayed your welcome--sit at one of the rickety tables as long as you'd like."
