    Matcha(left) and latte
    Rebecca P.

    LOVED the building and owner:) This place has an unmatched rustic vibe. It has charm and character, and a story to it. What was so sad was the rave reviews, and stellar experiences listed had my expectations through the roof! The matcha tasted like close to nothing, more like a sweet milk. I don't recommend grabbing this drink if you stop by! The coffee was robust, and quite interesting. It's a fun stop for the vibes and chatting, not for me taste wise! Thanks for the amazing experience though:)

    So the old owner has sold the business to Haley and she is doing a great job, there is now food while pastries coffee still amazing, ambience is outstanding. There's no place like at Omaha with original bar and everything. It's still a great experience. Kraig is missed, but Haley is doing a stellar job. This is my favorite coffee place in the United States. Best coffee best atmosphere check it out.

    A cool little place. Used to be a bar turned coffee shop. And as someone else mentioned- it is like "Cheers". Several people came and went and the barista and others were welcoming each other and calling each other by name and everyone knew it was one gals bday. The coffee was good and there were a couple pastries to choose from too.

    The coffee is perfectly brewed and sooo smooth. Loved it. Beautiful building and atmosphere. Owner is so friendly and nice. Fast service.

    It's a bar, not a coffee shop layout. Not quite what I had envisioned, but let's see how their coffee is for the hubby. Ordered an oat milk latte and a lemon ginger, Manuka honey tea. $10. The oat milk latte is good, it's flavorful, the beans are good. They use Sumatra beans. The 11AM military siren went off for an entire minute. Nice convenient hooks under the bar top. This place feels like a spot you go for actual coffee, not for the sugary ones. Service was warm, friendly?", quick and so chilled too. This place has a Cheers vibe to it and it's nice.

    Love all of the drinks I've tried here. The coffee flavor is bold and roasted perfectly!

    We loved the bar look in this coffee shop, very nice counter top and just looked cool. Service was great with only one person working she was whipping out coffees like no other. Coffee here is not your normal sugar stop coffee, flavor is very strong which suits my wife and I's taste for coffee. If you are looking for some real coffee Howlin' hounds is the place to be!

    Cold brew with cream

    I wasn't familiar with this place at all, but Yelp suggested it to me. The reviews were so enthusiastic regarding the coffee and the friendliness of the owner. Remarkably so. Today, I was out on a walk and not really thinking about coffee, but since I happened to walk by I decided to try the door (there really isn't any indication outside that it is even open). It was open, the owner was attentive to the two customers that were in there. I can confirm that he really is as nice as all the reviews said! We chatted for a bit, and I learned that he eventually plans to close the business, of course. He doesn't have a timeline for it but said that one day, he just won't unlock the door. Well, I decided I better not wait to sample the coffee, since who knows if I will have another chance? So I got a cold brew, with cream. And I have to say that it really is a remarkably good cup of coffee. So, if you are in the area, check the door.

    Visiting Omaha and stumbled on this spot because it was open earlier than most. Great mocha (not sweet but deep and rich), even better service. The guy pulling the shoes is clearly a local favorite. Great spot to stop for a cup of coffee and a little local flavor. Highly recommend it.

    Great place to chat and relax. The owner is welcoming and we enjoyed our time here. Seating is limited as its front bar design. Quite nice concept. The coffee is good, different for my taste but I would return a second time to try something new

The branding and overall vibe feel intentional, and I genuinely appreciate their mission and what they're trying to build in Omaha. That part really stands out. That said, the coffee itself didn't quite hit for me. I ordered a seasonal latte and was excited for something distinctive, but the flavor felt pretty muted. It tasted more like a standard latte than something seasonal or layered. Not bad by any means -- just not memorable. I'd still come back to try something else because the space and concept are strong. I just hope the drinks lean a little more bold next time.

    Astute is very truly a GEM among the Omaha coffee shop community…read more You can expect warm hospitality, bright and spacious seating areas, thoughtfully made pour overs and a fun seasonal menu. When I get the chance to sit somewhere for awhile, Astute is my first choice. It's generally quiet enough to read or study, and the pour over service is truly exceptional. The roasters they choose to work with are some of the best around. Astute's employees' commitment to serving their clients well and learning about the nuances of each coffee make for an excellent adventure each time. ++also, they carry Pettit's Pastries and you're gonna need to grab a donut while you're here. Best in town!++

They carry local baked goods like Osos baked goods and they also have ice cream which I find fun! Their coffee syrup selection is vast, if you like a fun syrup you need to come here.
