AMAZING! Overall, great coffee shop! I true hidden gem!

I have found the coffee shop I didn't know I was looking for…read more My wife told me I needed to check out Weird Brothers Coffee because, as she put it, "You're a huge Star Wars nerd. You're going to love this place." She knows me well. Walking into Weird Brothers feels a little like stumbling into the cantina after taking a wrong turn through Mos Eisley. The place is loaded with Star Wars, Doctor Who, Harry Potter, and Nightmare Before Christmas memorabilia. As a longtime Star Wars fan and hardcore comic collector, I immediately went into "Okay, let's see what they have" mode. And that's before even getting to the coffee. Weird Brothers roasts their own beans and has a bunch of sci-fi-themed blends. The names alone had me reaching for my wallet. I'm the kind of person who will buy a comic because it says "First Appearance" on the bag, so naturally I'm susceptible to coffee with a geeky name. They even have a special blend for the CrossFit gym next door, which I thought was a pretty cool touch. Nothing says community partnership quite like supplying caffeine to people voluntarily throwing heavy objects around at 6 a.m. Supporting your neighboring businesses? +5 reputation points. Now, about the food... Come here for the coffee. When we visited, they were completely out of the breakfast sandwiches. The remaining options were quiches, so we grabbed the ham & cheese and spinach. Unfortunately, they weren't freshly made and were simply reheated. They were perfectly edible, but definitely more "side quest" than "main storyline." The Americano, however, was good. That's what brought me back to the primary mission: coffee and geeky stuff. I definitely want to return and pick up a few bags of their beans. At this point, I'm basically looking at the coffee menu the same way I look at a wall of long boxes at a comic shop: "I don't need all of these... but I should probably check every single one just in case there's a key." Four stars for the coffee, atmosphere, in-house roasting, and ridiculous amount of geek cred. The food kept this from going to five stars, but I'll absolutely be back. Now excuse me while I go investigate these coffee blends like I'm hunting for a first appearance of Boba Fett in a stack of back issues. May the roast be with you.

Had eaten half before I remembered to take a picture. They do have online ordering (which I didn't use today but might speed up the line.) That said, I've been before with friends for lunch and was less impressed. Floors and tables were pretty dirty by midday, and my salad had some moldy leaves. I've heard similar commentary on lunch from others. Overall, highly recommend for pastries and coffee!!

I'm glad I was with them, since the location is tucked away up the stairs and would be easy to miss if you are passing by. However, inside was very airy and spacious with many cozy options for seating. I ordered my chai with oat milk and a cinnamon roll from the friendly cashier. She asked if I wanted to warm my roll, and I agreed with the suggestion. Once we had our order, we headed to the couch to enjoy our brunch. The chai was delicious and had a nice peppery kick. It even came with a little cookie! I also really enjoyed the cinnamon roll, which was especially packed with spiced goodness at the warm center. I loved that everyone from studying students to large families could enjoy the indoor and outdoor space. Even with a fairly steady flow of customers, we were able to relax in the sunny couch area without feeling rushed. I would definitely return here for another chai and some breakfast in the future!

Nevertheless I never had an issue when I went. I thought the ambiance was very nice. The seating is cute and when you order "for here" they serve you in a very cute mug. I've had the red eye and the coconut chai. I didn't know this until after the fact: the coconut chai does not include coconut milk only coconut flakes.

I took a spot at the table inside and started to play with my tablet. After my friend came, we decided to order something. I got the caramel frappuccino and Charles happened to be the one to take my order. I noticed a little too late that they had the pumpkin spice frappuccino, and Charles went so far as to offer me a new drink or add a couple shots of the pumpkin flavor to the Caramel frappuccino that I ordered.. I actually took note of this guy earlier because he was awesome and friendly with everyone who walked into the store. In all of my experience coming to the various Starbucks, I really haven't witnessed any employee who was so outgoing and friendly with everyone. He was the same way with the employees which makes me think he is a manager here. The frappuccino was great, but really it was Charles that made it an awesome experience!

This review is solely based on my most recent visit and not any previous ones. I originally thought…read morestars, but then changed to 3 stars for a couple reasons. As soon as I walked in, I received a generic greeting, but I was okay with it. Usually the baristas are way too busy to even greet customers as they walk in. I decided to place my order through the app to make it easier (for me) since I always have "complicated" orders to say out loud. They were really busy but as I was patiently standing there, waiting for my drink, the barista asked what drink I'm waiting for and started on it right away. There isn't any indoor seating available, but there is outdoor seating. There was once indoor seating available, so not sure if this was a temporary or permanent change. I was hoping to be able to charge my phone, but there weren't any outlets available indoors or outdoors. The bathrooms are only for customers, which makes sense, keeps random non-customers from using them...gives slight NY vibes. However, I believe they require a code from staff.

Flavors are chocolate, caramel and coconut. I've tried the other latte specials as well, but this is by far my favorite. The coffee itself tastes amazing. I can tell it was brewed fresh with the right temps. Flavors aren't strong enough to overtake one another. Just a right balance all around. The Service: Service is great here. The staff are so friendly and attentive. They are pretty fast about getting your order out as well. The Atmosphere: Nice and small coffee shop. Not a lot of seating inside, but the vibes here are very nice. Feels very much like a "local iykyk" kind of spot. Overall, a 5/5. One definitely recommend trying Weird Brothers. All the drink options here are delicious!
