Coffee Bar

Coffee Bar Kearny sits on the ground floor of the Saint Mary's Square garage at 433 Kearny, a block off Belden Place in the Financial District. The room was the first interior in the country built with Shou Sugi Ban wood, a charred timber technique, and the project pulled a national design award. Stone counters. Manual espresso machines. Coffee Bar sources from farms and co-ops directly and trains its baristas to pull on those manual machines. The cafe runs weekday hours only, closed by mid-afternoon, which tells you it is built for the FiDi worker. Pastries come from local partners. Order an espresso if you want to taste what a manual machine and direct sourcing get you in this neighborhood. Order a cortado if you came in on a lunch break and want something dialed in to the second.
