Coffee & Cinnamon Toast by the Beach, San Francisco

Life's pretty good when there's good coffee and cinnamon toast to be had from Trouble Coffee Company in the Outer Sunset area (next to the beach) in San Francisco. Discovered this place after visiting the San Francisco Zoo a couple miles away.

I would say the latte was pretty decent though it only comes in 1 size and with whole milk, but what really makes the coffee here is the cinnamon toast. 

It's almost a heart attack waiting to happen, but it's worth it. Every "toast" is made to order with a thick slice of white bread (delivered daily from Just For You Cafe in the Dogpatch), toasted till a crunchy crust happens, then generously slathered with layers of butter and cinnamon sugar. There is a process of literally stabbing the bread to make sure the buttery cinnamon goodness gets all the way through. 

The result? A cinnamon bun like flavor but with a lot more crispy edges to enjoy, minus icing (but trust me - you don't need it). Next time, I'll have to go back and try the "build your own damn house" which apparently is cinnamon toast with the addition of young coconut.

If you're in the area, don't miss out on the toast and a chat with the folks who run the place. It's a fun little neighborhood place to visit if you need a break from the city.

Tip: Cash only
