I had just landed in SF. It was late and even later by the time I checked in to my hotel. I hadn't eaten yet and I wanted to catch up with a friend as well so we looked for a spot with late night drinks and an open kitchen that was also walking distance to our hotel. We landed on Cafe Terminus, which was a great call. The place isn't huge and on a Tuesday night it was sparsely filled, but that gave us more opportunity to riff with the awesome bartender who welcomed us to SF with shots of Fernet. Now, Fernet is not my favorite by any stretch (actually you could say I actively dislike it!) but, when in San Francisco, right? The menu is fairly simple, consisting of a few sandwiches, salads, and sharable snacks. Looking for more of a meal I went with one of the sandwiches, the turkey (with cheddar, lettuce, tomato, cranberry sauce, and chipotle mayo). It was a bit like Thanksgiving in between bread and it quite good. And at just $12, it was also one of the more affordable meals I've encountered in the city over the years of traveling there for work. All around, a great experience!

Cafe Terminus was exactly what my friend and I needed after getting into San Francisco late for a work conference. This included a decent drink plus a quick, filling meal. We found Cafe Terminus just around the corner from our hotel. The bartender told us the kitchen would be closing soon so we should order fast. I got the Cubano a la Plancha. Our sandwiches came out fast, and we were able to catch up at one of the few tables in the small space. We also chatted with the bartender, who to welcome us to the city, mentioned their Fernet shots. I now know, because of this experience, that Fernet is an SF thing, originally because it was thought to cure cholera, a disease that once impacted the city. I can't say this spirit is tasty, but it was memorable. I know I'll be back to SF again soon, so I'm keeping Cafe Terminus in mind for a late evening eat and drink.

Outstanding service and amazing Italian! Everyone at the restaurant was extremely accommodating with my 11 month old. They suggested the spaghetti and served him a half portion. They also brought out a special dessert to complement the delicious dinner! Would highly recommend Cafe Terminus.

Staying at a near by hotel for a conference and decided to stop by this Cafe/Bar-- what intrigued me most was the music and the game being played on tv, it really created a good vibe in this establishment. Not big on knowing my cocktail names or choosing liquor so the gentleman working the bar told me he'd surprise me and made me my new favorite drink, "French martini". Glad I stumbled across this place, i will return next time I'm in town.
