Great sandwiches and coffee drinks. Love the wilderness like back patio on hot days. Jeannette is very friendly.

My partner and I have been coming here for coffee and sandwiches for years. The space is very homey and cozy and the owner is very friendly. The sandwiches are so fresh and come on a delicious homemade roll. One time we even called right as she was opening one to try to pick up sandwiches before a hike and she was extremely accommodating and excited that we wanted her sandwiches specifically. Very fresh food and kind owner, highly recommend!

We finished a Lands End hike and were looking for a place for lunch. When we stood at the doorway, we heard Janette and some customers having a friendly chat at the counter, so we went in. She had a great selection of baked goods and coffees, so I ordered a house salad, coffee and tart. Janette made a point of remembering my name, and when our food was ready we sat in the back library area, adorned with paintings and photos of San Francisco. It's not fancy but has great atmosphere. Can't wait to come back.

I love this place- if you're a bougie critic go somewhere else anyway. This little family business reminds me Of a Parisian cafe but with that old school San Francisco charm. I just had the best sub sandwich on a French roll the way they made it was just right and the French roll was light and crispy. Perfect experience after my derailer broke riding down the hill and needed a place to land and wait for my friend. Free WiFi with a purchase too which these days a lot of cafes don't even have service.

Sandwiches were very tasty! A rustic, homey, quirky cafe. The two servers behind the counter were very friendly. Only negative is the tables were sticky/crummy but probably because the servers didn't have a moment rest to come clean them. And the wifi is too slow to actually get any work done.

I love garden house!! Jannette is so welcoming and friendly every time that I come into her cafe. She bring so much joy into the community. Get the turkey sandwich on sliced sourdough it's the best. All the pastries are amazing and the green smoothie is delish! I LOVE YOU GARDEN HOUSE & love you Jannette

My boyfriend and I wanted to go on a Black Friday hike nearby and this was one of the few places opened and I'm so glad we chose this spot. You walk in and you get greeted by two sweet women, they seem like a mother and daughter. They're both incredibly friendly and patient. Eventually I get my two sandwiches, two medium Roma sandwiches on a French roll, and I leave. When my boyfriend and I finally ate our sandwiches in the middle of our hike, we were pleasantly surprised. The sandwiches had so much flavor and suddenly I realized all the other sandwiches I've ever tried don't taste quite like these. I got a mild ground pepper flavor throughout and I LOVED the flakiness of the French roll. My only regret is that I didn't get two large sandwiches instead to enjoy more of it.

The food here was amazing and very nicely priced! Paired with the calming atmosphere, my experience was very nice with my boyfriend. The service was also a 10/10. Loved it here and will definitely come back!

Such a beautiful back patio. Coffee was good, the proprietress was so so friendly! Nice place to read and hang out.
