I went too illy on Wednesday of this week when I was on Union Street in San Francisco. I've had illy coffee before in Chicago and I enjoyed it. The experience at the Union St. location, though, was not-so-memorable...
Let's start with the good:
- great location in the heart of Union Street
- nice work space
- great for people watching
- cute glasses for coffee if you drink it there
Okay....now the bad:
- really terrible espresso beans...I remember liking their espresso in Chicago but was confused after consuming my beverage here.
- the almond milk latte sucks...super bitter, not flavorful....no amount of sugar would take away the bitterness and, as mentioned above, the flavor of the espresso was gross.
- I couldn't even finish my drink because I was so disappointed.
Overall, I'm glad I tried this coffee shop. I've noticed it several times as I usually frequent Union Street but I'm so NOT going back.
Rating: 1/5 stars (for the location)
