Check-ins
Come here for
Monkey Bite Espresso
Bird Rock uses this blend in every espresso drink.
Curator’s note
Chuck Patton opened this corner in October 2014, eight years after the Bird Rock original, and built it on what those years had taught the company about equipment, ergonomics for the baristas and workflow. Its second anniversary got a blend of its own, Little Italy, which still carries the room's name.
The Coffee
The pour-over list of single origins changes with the week's menu, and a single-origin batch brew runs beside the blend. The whole-bean shelf here carries Finca Las Terrazas, one of six farms run by Vides 58, a coffee company spanning three generations.

The Vibe
Brick on the corner of Kettner and Juniper, with the spacious garage door windows and bar ledge seating Bird Rock calls its signature and repeats in room after room. The formula was drawn for the company rather than for this corner, and the ledge along the glass is still the seat worth taking.
