Cafe

The Art of Eating Well

Caffè Museo serves an inventive menu of Italian-inspired dishes made from fresh, local ingredients and organic produce. Located in a light-filled space adjacent to the museum's entrance on Third Street, we offer an espresso bar, indoor and outdoor seating, and a selection of wines by the glass. Join us for a meal or stop by for coffee or a snack following an afternoon in the galleries.

Each month we feature a different exhibition organized by the SFMOMA Artists Gallery. All works on view in the restaurant are available for rent or purchase.

Caffè Museo is open Friday through Tuesday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., and Thursday, 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. (closed Wednesdays). For more information please call 415.357.4500.
