    I recently popped in before an author event at Carmicheal's, and discovered that in the evening,…read moreCrescent Hill Coffee becomes Supertonic Elixir Cafe. Elixir specializes in mushroom coffee and other healthy tonics. And I was able to chat with the owner for a bit about his business and passion behind it. It's clear he is very knowledgeable. He was eager to take me through the menu. And I ended up getting a caffeine-free chai latte, that was perfectly sweet and hit the spot. This spot has blends you can buy and take home. I also like how this business seeks to give people an alternative to bars, when you want to get out, sip on something, but be careful about it. This is definitely worth a visit to learn more.

    Crescent Hill is a cozy haven! Bathed in natural sunlight, as soon as you enter, there is a warm,…read moreinviting atmosphere. I enjoyed a calming cup of tea, tempted to chill on their retro couch and pull tarot cards (they had a 'Dark Crystal' tarot deck out for guests to use!), but I sat by the window, surrounded by plants, and people-watched on and off as I worked a little. After an hour - yes - tarot time! An added perk is its attachment to Eggs Over Frankfort. The staff in the cafe, who was very sweet and helpful, let me know I can order food from them and still enjoy their cafe! I will definitely be back for a drink with Crescent Hill, then a meal from next door. I absolutely love the openness of working together, both uplifting each other, and therefore uplifting the community. This is what I love about living in Louisville.

    Sunergos Coffee in St. Matthews is easily one of the best coffee spots in Louisville. From the…read moremoment you walk in, the atmosphere feels warm, welcoming, and thoughtfully curated -- the perfect mix of cozy neighborhood café and high-quality coffee shop. The staff is always friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about what they do. The coffee itself is outstanding. You can truly taste the quality and care in every drink, whether you're ordering a perfectly balanced latte, a bold espresso, or one of their seasonal specials. Everything is crafted with consistency and attention to detail. Even the pastries and small bites pair perfectly with the drinks. We love the cheddar chive biscuit! What really makes Sunergos stand out is the experience. It's the kind of place where you can meet a friend, get some work done, or simply enjoy a quiet moment with an incredible cup of coffee. St. Matthews is lucky to have a coffee shop this good. Highly recommend to anyone looking for top-tier coffee, great people, and a relaxing atmosphere! They also have added a mini print vending machine , you will need $1.25 in quarters to purchase!!!

    Several friends told me Sunergos has the best coffee in town, so we decided to try it. We went on a…read moreSaturday morning around 9 a.m., and there was a long line; however, it moved quickly. We ordered a hot oat milk latte and an iced latte. Mine had several customizations (1/2 caffeinated, 1/2 sweet), and they nailed it. We can't wait to go back!

I love that the lattes came with a little cookie too. My only gripe is that it's really loud and I feel like patrons aren't very mindful of a coffee shop hushed tones, people working, calm area vibe. Not the cafes fault but just makes it kind of hard to sip a coffee and chill. Overall though I loveee the coffee here.

My friend and I…read morehave come here mostly for the Annual Books and Brews for the Louisville Free Public Library. This is not a place we regularly visit, although maybe we should. Our experiences have always been great and have no complaints during all of our visits. It is a nice quaint little place just off Grinstead Drive. The space here is decent and seating can be limited depending how busy they are. It's like being in someone else's home while feeling at home at the same time. They have seasonal menus like most local coffee shops do. I love their winter drinks where you get a small butter cookie and you can dunk it in the drink. Staff is always wonderful here and welcoming. We do love Fante's and plan to come back again, maybe not wait a year at a time.
