Finally the long-awaited San Francisco (SF) Coffee has opened its doors to the North, launching their very first Penang outlet in Gurney Plaza Penang! Coffee lovers in Penang can look forward to quality, fresh and robust deliciousness as SF Coffee takes pride and diligence in the brewing process for every cup of coffee from sourcing, cupping to the roasting of the beans!

San Francisco Coffee located at the popular hangout spot - the alfresco area of Gurney Plaza, which is just next to Starbucks Coffee. The strategic location is perfect place for a good cup of coffee, sea breeze as well as the companion of friends and family.

Comfortable sofa seats are available too!

Each of the San Francisco Coffee outlets are uniquely different in identity, the one in Gurney Plaza features the mural wall with the theme of "Coffee, Beach and Sea", which was created by the multitalented artist, Anna Maria. The concept was to create an oasis from the hectic life of modern Penang, offering a calm and serene space for consumers to enjoy the good stuff!

According to the General Manager of SF Coffee, Ms Koo, the sense of hearing, smell, taste and touch are awakened by their sweet tunes, coffee and the aroma of the freshly roasted coffee; the art allows the customers to culminate the all-round sensory experience as it helps evoke the sense of sight.

Behind the scene, any blogger/media that you can recognize? 😁

Throughout the session, I was quite impressed with their "1 Rule" whereby to ensure the freshness of their coffee each and every time, they use their beans within 1 month from being roasted and bagged, 1 week from the bag being opened and 1 hour from being ground.
