The pastry case is impressive with a huge selection of pastries, bagels, and goodies, including massive pies that are hard to resist. Coffee and tea options cover all the standard classics, plus some fun twists that keep the menu interesting. The coffee is good for the area but nothing outstanding. The space itself is large with plenty of seating options, and it never feels overly crowded, which is a big plus if you want to sit and relax for a while. Unfortunately, the service has gone downhill. The baristas used to be incredibly friendly, remembered drink orders, and made you feel genuinely welcome. Lately, it feels rushed and impersonal, like you're just being pushed through the line with little acknowledgment. The experience has been very hit or miss, which makes it hard to want to return regularly. Overall, amazing pastries and pies, solid drinks, and a great space, but the inconsistency in service is what keeps this from being a frequent stop for me anymore.

After we ordered, however, we were bummed to find them promoting anti-ICE ideology in a prominent way at the front counter. Can't a coffee shop just make good coffee and not get political? If not for having political things a prominent part of the experience, I probably would give this place five stars. But it takes away from the experience if, even when you are just trying to get a drink and a bite to eat, you must ascribe allegiance to some cause or some political agenda. Typical Missoula I guess. I just would love to be able to have a relaxing time getting a cup of coffee and nobody carrying whether my values are democrat or republican, ICE or anti-ICE.

It's a huge hangar type space filled with locals bustling in for their morning coffee. My typical way to know if I'll like a coffee shop is if their cappuccino is only offered in one (or two) sizes. Black Coffee had that-BINGO. Delicious and perfectly made. My only regret is not buying beans to brew at home.

(525) is worth a stop for the building alone--that curved corrugated-metal shell, the tangle of Edison bulbs strung across the high ceiling, and a sunny little patio out back make it one of the more distinctive coffee spots around. The service was friendly and quick. I ordered at the counter and had my drink in hand in no time, with genuinely nice folks behind the bar. The menu has some fun, unexpected touches too--the mint cold brew is a standout you won't find everywhere, and it's refreshing without being gimmicky. The pastry case is where they really shine. House-made bialys, savory danishes with coconut greens and pork belly, sweet danishes with black tea and roasted rhubarb, plus a rotating lineup of cookies and tea cakes. Everything looks like it's made with real care, and the bakery side (Grist) clearly takes the craft seriously. One heads-up: there's no WiFi. If you're hoping to post up and grind through a few hours of work, this isn't the spot for it--plan on a shorter visit or bring a hotspot. For a quick, high-quality coffee-and-pastry run, though, it's a winner. Come for the architecture and the mint cold brew, stay for the bialys--just don't expect to get much emailing done.

I've visited here quite frequently and haven't had a "none" off day with the staff. Whenever I placed an in-person or mobile order there always seemed to be an issue with the level of sweetness to my beverages. Note to self you as a customer pay for additional pumps. I caught the staff on several occasions not even adding in the paid-for customization of the drinks. I would have to go out of my way as a customer to correct them on their purposeful disregard of stealing from consumers. No morals or ethical values behind taking people's money (to harbor it for a multi-billion dollar corporation) and not rendering service. That is not okay. As for sitting in the lobby if you can manage to get a decent spot and block out the discordance or have a good pair of headphones then it's a place to sit and get productive. Overall, this is a hard no for me.
