One that I've tried before is called the cherry vanilla cream cold brew. Along with that I got a yogurt bar. Most all of the folks were inside and I felt like I was the only sole out on the sidewalk. Today was one of those days when it wasn't too hot and humid. I felt some very light sprinkles but it was fine enough to be outside. The cafe itself is huge and there is quite a bit of activity on Wilson Boulevard out in front. The cold brew has quickly become one of my favorites!

No stars! You should go elsewhere…read more Made pickup order, order cancelled immediately. No reason given at all. Called their phone number, rolled to an answering machine immediately. Got charged, no refund. This is a ridiculous way to run a business, the food is overpriced and the ambiance is bad. You should go elsewhere.

Decided to try a new coffee place with my friend. So glad we did! As others have stated, it's off…read morethe main streets (but not too far) so there is decent street parking available on the weekends. We came around 11 on Sunday and it was packed. They have free WiFi and phone booths (for members to take calls) for those who want to work/study there. There is a decent amount of indoor and outdoor seating although it's not an overly large space. I loved that they had a community puzzle, but wished they had more than one bathroom. I ordered the Jasmine Zest Iced Latte (signature drink from their summer menu), Brazilian Cheese Bread (3 for $4.50), and Honey Goat Toast. Everything was delicious and flavorful! Items came out as they got prepared - cheese bread (at checkout), latte, then toast (estimated wait of 5 minutes). I lucked out with the cheese bread. The customer in front of me got the rest of the last batch and I got everything of the new batch that came piping hot out of the oven! The texture was different from other cheese breads where it was a thin bread exterior and a mochi-like cheese filling. I appreciated actually being able to taste the jasmine and lemon in the latte as well as the lavender on the toast. I wouldn't mind coming back to try more items on their menu. I wouldn't mind coming definitely reorder the cheese bread!

I got the bacon egg and cheese bagel and even though they heated it up, it was cold in the middle, the bacon was soggy and rubbery and the bagel tasted store bought. I'm not saying this place is bad I'm sure the desserts are good, but for the price, nothing we had really was better than the competition in the area. It wasn't really for me, but they were super busy so someone likes it

Ballston isn't short on places to get a good coffee and breakfast sandwich, but if you want…read moresomething with a bit of a European flair, Roggenart isn't a bad option. Located right next to Big Buns, this European Bakery shop has a relaxing coffee shop atmosphere. The kind where if you work remotely you can work here most of the morning and enjoy the quiet ambiance. I usually get a sausage, egg and cheddar or a bacon, egg and cheddar. Though one time they messed up my order and gave me the Roggenart Signature (which is a bacon, egg and cheese with avocado... I'm allergic to avocado). But they corrected the error. Their lattes are also great! I prefer iced ones.

We would have loved one of the delicious looking pastries but we have many meals in front of us today. The staff was beyond helpful and accommodating.

Badass coffee was not bad at all…read more Lately I have been on the TRY EVERY COFFEE SHOP AROUND ME kick. So, I ended up at Badass coffee and it did not disappoint at all. This is a different vibe and place compared to the other coffee places around which are more chic. The staff is amazing. The service is quick. The coffee is nothing to write home about but it is still better than a lot of other places. The orange poppy cake was warmed and delicious. The everything bagel hit the spot, whatever that spot is. All in all this is your clean decent coffee spot. 4/5 definitely give it a try!

Hubby and I got to sit and relax while que enjoyed our matcha and coffee.

Amazing coffee shop in Old Town. It has an intimate neighborhood feel, and I can't tell you know…read moremuch I love the simplicity of the space. I don't want an endless number of menu options. I find that to be dizzying. So I found their straightforward menu to be very refreshing. Less is more. The interior is clean and simple. There are a few small tables and one communal table; it's minimalist - yet cozy. There's an standalone restroom just outside the building. Street parking. The garden area is really tranquil. There was no loud music playing inside. It was peaceful, yet there were some people chatting away so it was lively and inviting. Now, to the coffee. I tried the Nutella latte (hot) and it was excellent. It wasn't too sugary sweet and didn't have any strange chemical aftertaste. I had no expectation for an intense Nutella flavor so I was perfectly fine with more subtle flavor notes. I felt like it was just right. I was able to actually taste the coffee. My husband had an iced coffee (black) and enjoyed it. We will definitely be back. We didn't try any of the baked goods but next time we will. They looked tasty. Side note: the plants displayed are for sale, and I'd imagine some of the art is also for sale. I loved the photography they had displayed. I'd imagine it's from a local professional photographer. I checked out their website and learned that this is a multi-purpose little cafe/shop - they have wine nights and are open till evening, and also offer activities. Additionally they rent out their space for smaller events. I like what they're doing within the community and I hope more people support them. I'd imagine during busy times the wait is longer but I'll take the wait over a chain experience any day. There was once a time when people were more patient, when they were willing to wait for excellent quality and service. I hope we get back to those times and stop being in such a hurry! Good things take time :)

However, price aside, the experience was unforgettable. The baristas were extremely kind, caring, and descriptive on exactly what you were being served. The drinks were delicious, and you can order decaf if you don't prefer the caffeine. Highly recommend for a once in a lifetime experience!
