      My boyfriend and I wanted to go on a Black Friday hike nearby and this was one of the few places opened and I'm so glad we chose this spot.

      You walk in and you get greeted by two sweet women, they seem like a mother and daughter. They're both incredibly friendly and patient. Eventually I get my two sandwiches, two medium Roma sandwiches on a French roll, and I leave. When my boyfriend and I finally ate our sandwiches in the middle of our hike, we were pleasantly surprised. The sandwiches had so much flavor and suddenly I realized all the other sandwiches I've ever tried don't taste quite like these. I got a mild ground pepper flavor throughout and I LOVED the flakiness of the French roll.

      My only regret is that I didn't get two large sandwiches instead to enjoy more of it.

      I love this place- if you're a bougie critic go somewhere else anyway. This little family business reminds me
      Of a Parisian cafe but with that old school San Francisco charm. I just had the best sub sandwich on a French roll the way they made it was just right and the French roll was light and crispy. Perfect experience after my derailer broke riding down the hill and needed a place to land and wait for my friend. Free WiFi with a purchase too which these days a lot of cafes don't even have service.

      We finished a Lands End hike and were looking for a place for lunch. When we stood at the doorway, we heard Janette and some customers having a friendly chat at the counter, so we went in. She had a great selection of baked goods and coffees, so I ordered a house salad, coffee and tart. Janette made a point of remembering my name, and when our food was ready we sat in the back library area, adorned with paintings and photos of San Francisco. It's not fancy but has great atmosphere. Can't wait to come back.

      Sandwiches were very tasty! A rustic, homey, quirky cafe. The two servers behind the counter were very friendly. Only negative is the tables were sticky/crummy but probably because the servers didn't have a moment rest to come clean them. And the wifi is too slow to actually get any work done.

      I love garden house!! Jannette is so welcoming and friendly every time that I come into her cafe. She bring so much joy into the community. Get the turkey sandwich on sliced sourdough it's the best. All the pastries are amazing and the green smoothie is delish! I LOVE YOU GARDEN HOUSE & love you Jannette

      This place was AMAZING!!!!! The sandwhich was so yummy and perfectly crafted by the sweetest woman. The place is beyond beautiful and so loved. The patio is beautiful, the workers are so sweet! I have a severe dairy allergy and always disliked places that charge for a milk sub, but they didn't charge me for a milk sub which was so kind. The drink was amazing, food was yummy, workers were so patient and sweet, and the cafe is so beautifully decorated. 1000/10 recommend!

      This cafe is such a neighborhood gem - motherly vibes from the coffee shop owner, relaxing piano music, and amazing bites and drinks. More than enough room for seats to do work on your laptop or read. Would 11/10 come here again :)
