The Brazilian Spot (formerly Cafe Valencia)

Not shown in this picture but I can safely say the brigadeiro (chocolate ball) and pão de queijo (cheese bread/gluten free) is consistently on point . Definitely worth trying.

Pão muito seco,e café frio.

Just popped in while my car got smogged, but this was hands down the best coffee I've ever had. It was deep with flavor and very smooth coffee! Got the crepe pops and they were delicious! Highly recommend for a quick pick me up and snack.

Delicious pão de queijo, absolutely demolished it. Clean and nice interior. They not only offer Brazilian pastries and food but also have Brazilian products ranging from biscuits to hot sauces. Coffee paired with their pastries

Amazing spot. Miguel is so kind and welcoming! The pão de queijo is gluten-free and delicious, as are the açai bowls (sem granola). Wish I still lived in San Francisco so I could come here more often!

Needed a great coffee show near me in San Francisco and I’m glad I came here. They have these addictive Brazilian cheese breads (pão de queijo) that are delicious. Make sure to come here when they come out fresh. They’re also home made. If you’re craving something more summer try their delicious açaí. The mission is lucky to have this coffee shop around. Owner is super friendly and welcoming.

I really like what they did with this cafe. They made it even more hospitable and there are many places to sit. The addition of the hot food buffet is a really great idea. I miss the buffet at another place on Valencia that closed down years ago. The food was really good and moderately priced for SF. I had a nice portion for about $15-16. Had rice, tri-tip and chicken stroganoff and the toppings of a little bit of a salsa and farofa was really nice too. It was a good place to sit and eat without having to have a huge crowd or to wait for staff. Like the predecessors they also have coffee and Brazilian snacks such as pão de queijo, kibe and all the good street foods of Brazil and some pantry staples available for purchase.

It’s piece of Brazil in the Bay Area
