Best latte in Dallas. Hands-down. Also, I love their new location in uptown at the quad.

A lovely little cafe within walking distance of Highland Park HS. I had an iced latte (2 shots, but you get a third shot for free should you need one) with whole milk. The coffee was really good and smooth. Service: The cafe was packed on a Saturday! It took them around 5-10 minutes for my drink to be ready. Ambiance: The cafe is tiny! They have a front area for waiting, but in the back they have additional seating (pictured). read more

LDU Coffee - Back room seating - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Easily the best coffee i've ever had, it has the perfect strong coffee taste with the right amount of sweet. I always ask for my vanilla lattes half sweet but I don't have to here. Their online ordering system is also some of the best i've seen, every location i've been to so far has had my order ready on time and in a convenient spot so I can grab it and go when im in a rush read more

Amazing and strong coffee! I also tried the lemon loaf omg it's to die for no literally! They spread this little butter on it "chefs kiss" the perfect amount of salty and sweet pairs so perfect with the coffee! Service is everything, definitely goes above and beyond to make sure you're satisfied read more

I've been a fan of LDU since their first location on Fitzhugh and they are serving some of the best valued coffee in Dallas. - Atmosphere: It's called LDU Coffee To Go for a reason! This location is long and narrow with space for a line on one side and a large bench for seating on the other. While it's small, people do sit around to chat. There is parking out front, but it can be tight so sometimes it's easier to park a little further away. - Service: When I was sitting on the bench waiting for my coffee, a server came up to me and delivered it, even though it's coffee to go. LDU adds that nice extra touch! - Coffee and Value: I am no coffee expert, but the experts love LDU. For $4 you can get a delicious hot latte with flavored syrup. It's less than a dollar extra to sub alternative milk. I don't know anywhere else serving such a high quality, custom latte for that price! I still have not tried their sandwiches, but I've heard great things and they're definitely on my list. read more

I love visiting new coffee shops, and LDU has been on my must visit for a while! I'm really glad I came because the cashier was so friendly and nice and helped me decide what to order. I believe I ended up just getting my classic order (iced vanilla latte), and it was a pretty decent cup of coffee. It was creamy and light, and the vanilla flavor was really nice. read more

I've been to a lot of coffee shops, but this one truly stands out! From the moment you step in,. you're greeted with a cozy atmosphere and the smell of freshly brewed coffee!. The staff are friendly and welcoming, always ready to recommend the perfect brew for any mood., read more

Drip is strong and amazing. No wifi or outlets just btw but amazing vibes and kindest employees

Fast service and welcoming workers! Unfortunately only bench seating available and not suited for conversation or leisure. Definitely a pop in and out place. Chai was just alright for me but glad they have alternative milks! read more

LDU Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Dallas, Texas

2nd store! Love the original on Fitzhugh! Same look, same ridiculously good coffee n sna!! Best in Dallas.

Last time at LDU Preston location. I work nearby and this is my go to coffee spot but after today i am done! Horrible service by the girl in long braids warm skin tone with a curt manner. When i asked for a remake i felt dismissed and irrational. I ordered an iced vanilla matcha and received milk with vanilla instead. When i normally spend 7$, i spent about $20 because she made me purchase new drinks that kept coming out wrong and didn't taste like they normally do. Clearly she needs some retraining to do or another job that puts a smile on her face. read more

Great coffee and great service. They roast their own beans, and the coffee has a great flavor without any bitterness. Delicious!

I tried a flat white and that was So good. Try this one. And the price is also reasonable. read more

LDU Coffee - Flat white - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Dallas, Texas

My to go place to get a great latte. We visited this place almost every week to get our caffeine boost. Great staff working here. Limited space indoor to enjoy your drink but they have the outdoor space or stay in your car. Highly recommended! read more

LDU Coffee - Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Dallas, Texas

If on the hunt for good espresso, look no further. Smooth and bold flavor without being burnt or tangy. Great service too, was hand delivered my coffee. Ordered an americano, not watered down, felt the perfect caffeine effect from it as well. Ambiance reminded me of those natural coffee filters maybe it's the way the menu was written and posted in the store or even the color scheme, but that's how I'd describe it. The LDU by me offers dim to natural lighting throughout the store, modern tables and benches/seats available. Seems to be very popular on the weekends, probably not the best time to go do work there, but during the week, seems like a great spot if you work virtually. Hope this helps, would recommend! read more

Ok LDU might be my absolute fav coffee in Dallas right now. Always kind. Always welcoming. And the coffee is just consistently great. I get the Boss w/ Oatmilk which is basically a double shout over ice with like 4 oz of milk. Perfect ratio and so few places offer an easy way to order that! This location has a really small seating area in the back but they encourage you not to camp. More of a grab and go spot. No wifi. And it's perfect. read more

Amazing tasting coffee and the oat milk is greatness! Staff are sharp and fast! My new haunt read more

Top notch Australian-style coffee. This location is a little more cramped but the coffee is still great. More of a grab'n go location.

went to LDU for the first time and i can say u was thoroughly impressed. Adam the owner, was the one to great me and my friend at the register and he was one of the most friendly people i've ever met!! We talked for 30minutes about random things, and normally i would have left a conversation by then, but it was so fun talking to him, i couldn't stop! Not only was the conversation great, the coffee he made for us was amazing too! Me and my friend just let him know what we like in our coffee drinks, and he made us the perfect drink I would definitely recommend this place to everyone and for you to go try if you can! read more

LDU Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Dallas, Texas

ADAM is the best!! Let me start by saying we met Adam at a coffee day a year or so ago and learned of this location. He and his brother have two shops. He is Australian guys! So the accent and humor is apparent and helps you feel welcome upon entering. I come here often enough that he immediately knows I start all orders with a double espresso. Adam makes a potent pour just how I prefer it and blends seamlessly with other liquids for a latte. Espresso too strong for you? Try the magic mike. Do you prefer a quiet ambiance? Sneak to the back room, put up your feet,and enjoy your drink. Matter of fact go as a group and watch him work his magic. You wont be disappointed. read more

LDU Coffee - The entry - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Dallas, Texas

LDU is my favorite coffee shop ever. The people are always so nice and the environment is so welcoming.

Coming from Seattle it's nice to find shops that serve really good and smooth coffee. Really enjoyed the location as well.

One of THE best coffee shops in Dallas. There's really not much else to say. No words can ever do LDU coffee justice. I'm such a huge fan of the original location on Fitzhugh Ave. This newer (second) location is amazingly a direct extension of the original location, albeit smaller, the service, quality and vibe are just as EXCELLENT. I can rave on and on about LDU. But I'll leave it to you to visit here and see for yourself. Seriously, to all my coffee lovers, you owe it to yourself to stop by LDU coffee. You won't be disappointed. read more

LDU Coffee - (top) chai latte with espresso, (bottom) mocha latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Dallas, Texas

This review is long overdue given that we had a great first time experience. After making an early morning trek to the airport to pick up family, we stopped off at LDU to get some coffee to wake us up lol. LDU did not disappoint! It was POURING down raining outside, but it kind of suited the vibe of of the place. I ordered an oat milk latte and my mom got a cortado. Both were great and the flavor the the espresso really came through in my latte. I should have left with some of their cold brew concentrate, but next time for sure! read more

We went in on a Sunday morning and the baristas were so kind and genuine. The place itself is so peaceful and decorated in such a cool way. They even handed us our coffees instead of calling our names! Such a great spot for anytime of the day, also great coffee! Would recommend to anyone! read more

I've been searching for an iced chai that's creamy, and theirs is it! I add vanilla and it's so good! I also love their toasted bread slices with butter. read more

LDU coffee is a sweet little spot under some apartments. They take the Bs out of a lot of these other cafes around the area and just do their thing. The customer service was very friendly from the jump. My girlfriend had the Cowboy juice. It wasn't the best coffee, tasted kind of watered down, but it wasn't too bad. The americano and banana bread was delicious. read more

LDU Coffee - Banana Bread - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Dallas, Texas

This is just your basic coffee stop. They get the drinks out fairly quickly. They have free cool stickers and other merch to look at. I got a vanilla latte w oat milk and banana bread. They do not have specialty drinks which was a little disappointing for me. It is a chill place to study. It has huge windows that light up the room. read more

Fantastic coffee and personable service. One of the owners, Adam, took the time to chat with us and talk about how he ended up from Australia to this little part of Dallas. My cappuccino was one of the best I've ever had; the brew was soooo smooth. I just wish we lived closer to this location as we would be here all the time. They have a clever gift rack too. My wife said Adam's recommendations for her coffee were on point too! read more

Best Coffee in Dallas. Service is kind and kewl. If you like strong coffee with flavor, this is where you should go. Sandwich's are superb as well. Easy going atmosphere without Wi-Fi for a great communal feel. read more

LDU is a wonderful coffee shop that's walking distance from Highland Park High School! The drinks are great, and the food is outstanding. I recommend the Yolko Oh-No or the Marco Polo sandwiches, which are both cheesy and delicious. Prices are very reasonable! The staff is always welcoming and cheerful, and takes the time to get your order right. There isn't much seating inside, but there are a few outdoor tables and some bench seating inside. Great coffee, delicious food, and lovely staff! read more

Service is always great, I go here often and every employee has been kind and personable. The coffee is the best I have had anywhere. Their espresso is the perfect roast (more on the dark side -- which I love) and always pulls creamy and smooth. The only downfall is that once you go here no other coffee shop will ever be as good. read more

This place is amazing. Baristas get to know you and your order quite fast. I walk in, and Adam (the guy with the Australian accent) gets started on my order before I even say a thing! Their coffee is great and menu is simple. If you are hungry, try one of the sandwiches, the pulled pork is my favorite and not something you find at your local coffee shop usually. Definitely some of the best espresso/coffee in Dallas. If you want a stronger coffee or something on the lighter side, let them know and they will get you exactly what you are looking for. read more

Stopped here while I was in Dallas. Flat white was good. Blueberry muffin was delicious. Great customer service. read more

A quaint coffee shop tucked between stores on Preston Rd that makes me feel like you're about to step into a 90's movie coffeehouse, when coffeehouses in the US were emerging - it just has such a special vibe. Amazing coffee! My order has always been accurate and now they added oat milk so it's fun to change it up from my old favorite of almond milk latte. The service is always fantastic. I usually go to the Fitzhugh location when heading out for coffee but will try to make it out to the Preston location more. Thank you so much LDU, your passion for coffee is felt through ever cup you serve! read more

LDU Coffee - Oat milk latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Dallas, Texas

I can't express how much I love this place. Their coffee is just absolutely delicious. I started with a quart-shot latte, then their coffee beans. Best coffee I've had in Dallas area. The shop itself is neat and very clean. Customer service is on point. Everyone who works there is absolutely nice and knowledgeable about their products. It's a 101% sure that I'll be back for many more times. read more

Strong and excellent tasting latte. Not much seating so it may or may not be a good place to meet with people.

Went to the new location about a week ago. Definitely will be my new coffee spot. Delicious Chai's, has unground coffee beans for you to purchase and super friendly staff! read more

This is one of those places you don't tell anyone else about so you can keep it all to yourself. Small place with limited tables sets a specific cafe experience. Low lighting, High ceilings, narrow walls and open space give a "chill" place to hang out. The man at the counter was the most delightful person I've met in a long time. He seemed genuinely happy to see people but we weren't the only ones there. Stayed for 10 minutes and about 5 people made their ways in. The espresso was good be the best I've had. The banana bread tasted and felt like it was sautéed in butter right before serving. Had that crust on it. Grabbed some coffee beans while I was there. They were cheaper than other coffee spots in the area. Can't recommended it enough if you're looking for this specific type of cafe environment read more

yeah- it's different narrow space on Preston next to the car wash. it's decor is similar to a detention room in a sub sahara police substation- brushed concrete and plywood wifi is similar- nonexistent counter help is dysthymic up some days not so up other days but you are here for the coffee and it's all in. solid selection- not fussy pro prep and tasty motif is - come get your joe and GTFO read more
