Coffee shops have been a community fixture for ages and to be one in the Excelsior neighborhood is truly an honor.

At its core, the district is culturally rich because of its immigrant, working class stronghold. The Mission Street corridor provides for families, elders and dreamers. Excelsior Coffee is committed to our neighbors and the history here, one we are proud to share and the one we help to shape. We hope to add to the tapestry of minority small business owners who protect the electric authenticity of this beautiful spot in the city. And like its namesake, keep onward and be as bold as we (and our coffee) can be together.

 
 

WHO WE ARE

 
 

Partners in life and love, Lea and Andre, met in this impeccable seven mile city and for 13 years they have rode side by side on vintage transpo (from scooters, cars, and motorcycles) conquering all of these 48 hills but have rooted down and proclaimed their loyalty to the Excelsior District.

Lea has a penchant for numbers, cross fades and jumpshots. Andre is a local public high school educator with a knack for history and getting under the hood of old cars. Together, they are fanatics about coffee and cultivating culture one cup at a time.
