As most anyone on the Mission coffeeshop circuit can tell you, Pro Grounds is pretty much the best place to overhear pure crazy while pretending to get work done in the entire 94110 zipcode (their berry buster smoothie is pretty good too). And come January, you'll be able to enjoy the sights and sounds of 21st and Bryant while sucking back cheap beer and house wine.
According to the woman manning the counter yesterday afternoon, they're extending their hours until 9-10pm every night, helping fill that much-needed late-night caffeine/complimentary wifi void in the neighborhood. Mind you, these things tend to (unexpectedly) take a while (The Roxie has been waiting to get beer since May), but, beer!

I go there a lot and I’ve never found it all that weird. There’s distinctly fewer hipsters on laptops than, say, Coffee Bar. Definitely a social worker hangout, for whatever reason. Otherwise, pretty quiet.
Yeah, I’m a big fan of the original ProGro up in Bernal Heights. Comfy and relaxing, nice place to spend a rainy afternoon (or a sunny one, for that matter, in the back garden).
