The seating was spacious with a cozy warm atmosphere. Spent 3 hours visiting with a friend from out of town. It was nice that it wasn't too nosy, there was a seperate room for small children, and the staff was so incredibly patient explaining the menu items. We were able to do the sample holiday flights of hot lattes with substituting with Almond Milk. 5/5 -- drinking coffee at Ember Coffee Company.

I have never had a sparkling tea and I told her that. I also said I was willing to try it. She made the drink and told me that if I didn't like it to let her know and she would make it over. I like that I was able to try something new and the staff made me feel comfortable trying it. Well done.

We also had a Rueben panini with good crispy fries that was also very tasty. Our table of nine was handled well.

On my visit, there were three or four people in line which gave me time to install the app and sign up for the loyalty program! I had an iced "candy bar" latte and had to specify the type of candy bar I wanted. The drink was very sweet and tasted like a liquid snickers mixed with coffee. Overall, it was very good, but next time I am going to specify half the syrup or try a plain coffee. The staff was very friendly and had me "scoot on up" after ordering. The only negative is that it is a little more expensive than other chain coffee shops but not by a lot. Definitely worth checking!

I had a salted maple latte, and it was 9.5/10, it was a little more sweet than coffee flavored, but the salted effect was great. My honey had an edge apple cider, which is a hot cider with cinnamon and whip cream (9/10). The atmosphere is nice, there is some nice seating areas, and a boutique. The boutique is overpriced, but fun to browse while you wait for your coffee. Service was fast, but not overly friendly.

We've been eyeing up this local gem since they opened and we finally made the stop! We decided to…read moretry both aspects of their sign out front: coffee + wine. Irish Latte with Coconut Milk: the whisky was subtle and the coconut milk was the perfect pairing (the milk alternatives are oat, almond, or coconut) Pinot Noir: flavorful and a bit dry, exactly as expected Apple Cinnamon Scone: they offered to warm it up and it was perfect. The scone was light and fluffy while the house made glaze gave it a touch of sweetness without being over the top; it melted in my mouth We are definitely adding this to our list of regular local spots.

I've stopped in a few times and tried different drinks, the Island Bolt and the Peanut Pleaser…read more Honestly, neither really hit the mark for me. The Peanut Pleaser tasted more like a salted peanut smoothie than something I'd want to order again, and the Island Bolt had some nice fruit notes but left a strange bitter aftertaste. Prices are about the same as other local coffee spots, and the inside decor is pleasant. The staff have always been friendly and welcoming. The biggest downside is that their espresso machine has been down for over a week. I checked in a couple of times while stopping at outlets, and it's still not up and running.
