The Emerald Lounge

Located in the Van Ness cinema lobby, this airy, open-concept café is perfect for remote work. Great coffee, craft drinks, and plenty of space to sit and stay awhile.

Emerald Lounge sits right downstairs of Apple cinemas inside the same building. I had no idea there was a movie theater there which makes it a plus for this cafe. Drinks came out fairly quick and they tasted amazing. They have their own little section of the building but there’s a good amount of seating and tables to either hangout with some friends or get some work done. The bonus is that once you’re done with your drinks or snacks you can walk to the back of the building for a movie.
