But don't be fooled with the modern concept and layout, they are roasting their own coffee and you can taste the difference! Whenever there's an espresso tonic on the menu I order it. I wonder how many times I've said that in a review? I digress...They actually had seasonal flavors, though I just wanted the regular. It was delicious and on par to the high coffee standards I have coming from Denver! They have a pastry case, large drink menu, unique items for sale, packaged beans, merch, etc. Tables are standard, many four tops open, though we loved sitting at the community table to work. Keys for the bathroom are located at the front counter! No complaints, would totally come here again. Hardy Coffee has my stamp of approval!

One of my favorite remote spots to work. There are several areas to sit both inside and out, which…read moremakes it super easy to settle in for a while. The baristas are always so kind and welcoming! Lastly, you have to try their turtle latte (little bit of carmel. Little bit of mocha) with a burrito or cinnamon--so good! Cheers!

A great spot for coffee in Underwood! They have lots of flavor combinations-- you'll have to ask…read morewhat is in them because it's not listed on the menu. The coffee is smooth and silky. We ordered at the drive thru window but I believe they have a walk up window as well. The lady at the window was very nice and signed us up for their loyalty program. I ordered an iced skinny coconut latte; I ordered mine half sweet and it was plenty sweet for me. The sweetheart latte has a raspberry cold foam that was very good!

If you don't like a very strong coffee they have beautiful sweet options! My only complaint is the chai. I know myself and many others would enjoy the place 10x if the chai wasn't grainy! I'm not sure if it's a sugar dissolving issue or the tea, but every single time I get chai there's just grains floating around and at the bottom of my cup. It really brings me down! However everything else really is amazing!

We visited quickly on our way out of town on a rainy Monday and had a great experience! I would…read morehave loved a sunny day to enjoy the side patio or a table inside with allll the natural light. The staff were very kind in explaining their menu and made some great recommendations. We ordered a hot chocolate which was creamy and delicious! We also ordered the Maple Blueberry Cardamom latte which, as the staff described it, tasted just like a blueberry pancake. The flavors blended great and were not overly sweet which I appreciate in a seasonal latte. The espresso was also quite smooth and not bitter at all which I was looking forward to as they do their own blends. A great spot!

I ordered two cold brews from here, but each with a seasonal housemade syrup (maple cinnamon,…read morevanilla walnut). It was not overly sweet, and I think it worked well with the cold brew! Inside was warm as in it was inviting and the barista was so sweet. There looked to be plenty of seating inside, but I just stayed off to the side while I waited for my coffee. There is street parking out front, but there was some major construction happening that it could be a little hard to find close by parking. Still, this was lovely and kept me awake for the rest of the day!

Stopped in this morning to restock on some coffee beans. We pretty exclusively use archetype beans…read morefor our espresso machine at home. I love that they roast them themselves so they are always fresh when you buy them. It truly makes a world of a difference in taste. We also grabbed a drip coffee and a cortado to enjoy on their patio- great as always. We love the peaceful patio surrounded by the plants. This is truly one of the best coffee shops in town if you care about quality.

Loved this café! The ambiance was really nice--kind of industrial-esque but still modern and cozy…read more The service was great too, everyone was friendly and helpful. The coffee was delicious. I can't remember exactly which latte I got, but it was one of their seasonal drinks and I really enjoyed it. I also love the beans they use; you can really taste the quality of the coffee. Their menu has a great selection of breakfast items and pastries too, and from what we tried, they do them really well. We got the cinnamon roll and chocolate chip cookie and both were delicious. Definitely want to come back and try some of their breakfast items next time!

Great service and excellent coffee and food!…read more I ordered the banana ball latte- it was delicious it didn't have an overall banana taste and it was too sweet. I also got the egg and cheese breakfast sandwich and it was fantastic. The cheese does get a little messy so grab a napkin. Good amount of seating area and not a loud environment even when many were in the building.

First off, they have no parking spots for disabled people. None. We circled the building and there…read morewere no signs for a disabled person to park. All the parking near the entrance is metered parking-- the kind that's hard to figure out if you don't use it regularly. There were three parallel parking spots directly in front of the door, but they were all filled and had 15 minute limits. The meters seem to be owned by the city, so maybe Big Grove doesn't have a choice, but it's very odd and wrong. The employees don't know anything about it. Next, the food. Bookguy wanted a muffin, but they were out. The pastries in the case were not like anything I had seen before, except for the cookies. The counter person described what they were, rather than naming them. Thus we ended up with a mushroom thingie and a pizza thingie. The mushrooms were minimal, black shreds with no flavor in a cornbread-like square. Bookguy rejected it after one bite: too dry and flavorless. I didn't think it was awful, but I wouldn't get it again. The pizza thingie was ok. The soft square of bread was fresh, with two pepperoni rounds, a teaspoon of mild pizza sauce and a teaspoon of white cheese. I especially liked the bread. Lastly, the coffee. It was excellent. I ordered a cappuccino with oat milk. I commented on the fancy machines they use and the "barista" pointed under the counter and said it was a robot. So maybe they don't have a trained barista, just a button pusher because they have a coffee-making robot. Nevertheless, it was great coffee. That being said, I can't imagine coming here again.

The decor and overall concept are just so cool and different. Such a great coffee shop. Definitely recommend!
