Overwinter Coffee - Barista Bar - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Buffalo, New York

Very small shop in downtown Buffalo. There's only a few seats on a bar top with the window view. The drink selection is kept to a minimum but they offer seasonal options so I got the pumpkin latte which wasn't too strong. It's a nice place to stop by when walking around the city. The barista was kind read more

Overwinter Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Buffalo, New York

Great cozy coffee spot with a welcoming atmosphere. The staff are incredibly kind, friendly, and make you feel right at home as soon as you walk in. One thing that really stood out is that they use real chocolate sauce in their mocha--not the artificial syrup you find at most places--which gives the drink a rich, authentic flavor. Definitely a place that pays attention to quality and customer experience. read more

Overwinter Coffee - Mocha - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Buffalo, New York

This place is so tiny that only a few people can sit at a bar along the window, but they churn out delicious coffee. I have tried an Americano and a dirty chai here, and they were both delicious. The chai was more spicy than sweet, which is my cup of literal tea. A great place to warm up in Buffalo! read more

Wonderful coffee and even better employees. I'm from out of town and they were so so sweet. They helped me with recommendations on what to do. Such a good vibe. read more

Overwinter Coffee - Morning light and blueberry scone - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Buffalo, New York

Tourist here stomping through the winter tundra our way toward Starbucks when we turned left and saw this local coffee shop. Amazing service, local entrepreneur, roasting their own coffee from around the world. Today the espresso was sourced from Minas Gerais, Brazil. Homemade syrups. I enjoyed the raspberry vanilla latte with coconut milk. Shop local. read more

Overwinter Coffee - Vanilla oat latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Buffalo, New York

The last time I came to Buffalo I lucked across Overwinter Coffee and immediately knew a good thing when I tasted one - I came here for a vanilla cappuccino every day of my trip and really enjoyed it! The staffers here are really friendly, and their coffee is excellent :-) Tip: This shop is easy to find, as it's right across the street from the convention center read more

Overwinter Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Buffalo, New York

Sometimes on my layovers I'll look up coffee shops that do latte art and that's how I choose where I'm going to go. On a snowy Monday afternoon I braved the 8 min walk from my hotel to come here. I told the barista that I chose this shop based off of the Yelp/google photos I saw showing latte art like hearts and such but I was let down that my $6 oat milk chai tea latte was watered down and didn't have any art. After getting my cup and questioning why it was so plain I was later informed that you can't really do art on chai tea lattes. At least not here. Anyways, I wouldn't be such a negative Nancy if the drink was actually good but it wasn't. It was watered down with a hint of chai spice flavoring. The space is small, the decor is cute, pastries look tasty and I'm sure they have amazing coffee because I sat at the window seat and watched several customers go in and out choosing local over the Starbucks across the street. It just wasn't my cup of tea. read more

For views, you can't get much better than Overwinter. The inside is currently closed but the bar style seating at the window looks directly out at the Buffalo Savings Bank building and it's beautiful gold dome. Thankfully the outdoor tables have the same view and more! Currently you order at the doorway and all drinks are in to go style cups and food is served in paper bags. That was fine with us as we sat and enjoyed the shade on a warm day and then went for a walk around the block as we finished our coffees. We ordered a cappuccino, maple latte and a blueberry "Plop Tart." Good coffee and anytime someone offers maple flavoring, I'm in. The plop tart was as you can imagine, their version of a Pop-Tart and as one could imagine, much better! Great place to grab a coffee to go or sit outside, but not so much a place to camp out and work. Love the turquoise accents, including the espresso machine and outdoor tables. Would definitely recommend stopping by here! read more

We stopped in for the first time and I could finally say I've been to all three overwinter locations LOL. This location is more smaller with very limited indoor seating like 4 seats by the window. They also have outdoor seating (but still unavailable for now since it's been raining). Coffee was always delicious, and the lady who worked behind the counter is friendly and great customer service. A must stop to get your caffeine fix. Will be back! read more

The coffee is excellent, the place cute, the staff charming - but the options for bakery goods or other breakfast-like snack options is far too limited, and the few cling-wrapped items have stronger competitors... read more

Definitely one of the best brews in Buffalo. Their pour over is only $3 and so worth it. I got the strawberry flavor and it really did taste like strawberry jam without very much acidity at all. The person behind the counter suggested pretty much a perfect brew. There is only a little bar table inside and a few tables outside, so it's not the best place for a sit down meeting, but they do have wifi. Best to just grab and go and find a nice outdoor seat. If you're looking for a place to sit down and park and work, this probably isn't it - but if you want one of the best (taste-wise and value wise) brews in Buffalo, don't miss Overwinter Coffee serving the downtown community. read more

Overwinter Coffee - Pour over strawberry (3) - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Buffalo, New York

Best tasting coffee I've had in Buffalo. I got a large iced honey latte, the 24 oz cup was nice to see! The staff was hardworking and friendly and the shop had a small but great vibe. I will return, this will be my Buffalo go to for lattes and coffee read more

I stumbled in here at the recommendation of a friend, who knows was a serious coffee snob I am. To put this in perspective, I travel the world for work...and I make it a point no matter where I am to seek out serious coffee providers that are passionate about what they do. I am happy to say, this is one of those places. The owner happened to be working the day I came in, and made me a seriously awesome cappuccino with his Strawberry roast. After a nice conversation about the different roasts, I tasted my capp and immediately understood why he calls this the Strawberry Roast. IT TASTED LIKE STRAWBERRIES. Sweet, tart and oh so good. (I ended up buying a bag naturally). I was equally impressed that he went out to his car to get coffee that he roasted the night before! If you are as serious as I am about coffee and demand quality, look no further. This place is literally as great as it gets. read more

Overwinter Coffee - Capuccino - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Buffalo, New York

Perfect coffee experience and quality! We sat and enjoyed the ambience and architectural details.

Overwinter's roasts are delicious. I recently had a cappuccino with The Blueberry and it was a special treat. If you're looking to elevate your coffee break this is the place to go. It's got a cozy atmosphere and sometimes other patrons are willing to chat, making for a touch of humanity in a cold world. read more

I was in Buffalo for a conference across the street from Overwinter Coffee and did not want Starbucks, so I thought I would give it a shot. When I walked in, I was amazed at how tiny the shop is and there are only two seats in the window, so no place to enjoy coffee and work/relax. I ordered a small drip coffee and a blueberry-lemon scone. I was quickly provided both and made my way back to my hotel, to find a place to sit and work on my computer. The first couple of drinks of the coffee were not too bad. The coffee was very earthy and nutty, but had a strong bitter aftertaste. I even added cream and stevia, but it would not cut through the bitterness. After trying the scone, I wish I could get my money back. It had absolutely zero flavor and was so hard, I thought I may break a tooth. It was like eating a brick! The more I drank the coffee, the worse the bitterness became. It was sad, but I couldn't finish either. I love supporting local businesses, rather than chain restaurants/shops, but Overwinter was a swing-and-a-miss. Unfortunately, I will not be back. read more

Top 2 lattes I have ever had in my life. The orange/vanilla/oatmilk combo plus the high quality espresso is unmatched. I finished one in the shop and ordered another. The shop has a very relaxed and clean vibe. Mans behind the counter knows exactly what to do. Check out his band SPACED. read more

Was meeting someone downtown so I picked a place for coffee since it was still so early. Saw this place a few times during my google searches but never made it in until today! Glad I stopped by and will definitely return! Appreciate you guys having decaffeinated coffee on the menu. I had a coconut latte with a banana nut muffin! Delicious! Thank You for serving with kindness and care! read more

Tasty, minimalistic coffee downtown. What could be better! It's taken me way too long to try Overwinter, but I'm happy I was able to stop in today. This storefront is very small, but the girl who took care of me and my friend was so kind in explaining their coffee and processes to us! I opted for a pour-over of their Blueberry blend coffee with coconut milk. I added Stevia, and I was a little worried that the coffee would be too strong (or worse, too bitter), but it was absolutely perfect. I could taste the fruity notes from the coffee beans and it was absolutely delightful. My friend had a vanilla latte and she enjoyed hers too! They offer a small selection of baked goods as well, and they looked delicious. I regret not getting an oatmeal raisin cookie! I wish there was more seating inside for chilly days, but they do have cute tables outside that looked perfect for a summer day. I will definitely be back! read more

* late review * Came to grab a nice cup of coffee and ended up getting a delicious honey orange iced latte, after getting this iced latte recommendation from the barista on duty.

I fell in love how cute and cozy this cafe is! read more

Awesome little coffee shop in the downtown buffalo and the guy behind the counter was more than accommodating and knowledgeable. While not the most expansive coffee shop in regards to size, it makes it up for delicious (and affordable) coffee selections and a few baked goods to pair with. If you're looking coffee on the go that is largely much better than the consumer masses of Tim Hortons, Starbucks in the downtown area, look no further than Overwinter. This is a great coffee gem in Buffalo. read more

Overwinter Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Buffalo, New York

Pretty cool concept I always wanted to try pour over coffee! And may I say it is located at one of the best views of downtown buffalo. Prices are decent ($3 for a cup) and although it takes awhile for the drip process, the coffee is strong and full of flavor. My only disappointment was that there wasn't much in the way of specialty drinks or food options besides a few pastries. I'll always be a Starbucks girl, but this is definitely a better option than most other cups of coffee in the area in my opinion. read more

Stopped here this past Sunday during a brief stay in Buffalo. I went there based on a strong Yelp rating. Couldn't have been happier. I grabbed three bags to go, and had a Strawberry pour over on ice. Yep, tastes like Strawberry! Got home and ground up The Day Drinker and prepared in a French Press. Tasted as good, if not better than the tasting notes. Nice wine taste. BTW, service was great. I wished I got the name of the person who waited on me. read more

Highly impressed with the quality of the beverages and the customer service at Overwinter! So far I have had a growler of chai concentrate delivered to my front stoop (I was texted at arrival!) and I have ordered online for curbside contactless pickup! The chai concentrate was amazing because you could add it to hot milk or cold milk depending on your preference for a hot or cold beverage! Ordering a beverages online was a breeze, and I received an email when the drinks were ready. While the price of the large oat milk vanilla orange iced latte was more than I usually spend, it was WELL WORTH IT. The orange and vanilla were expertly crafted to taste fresh and not overly sweet. It had more beverage than ice too, so you are getting a lot of amazing product in one cup. I am totally obsessed, and excited for my next one already!!! #shoplocal #buffalocoffee read more

This cute little coffee shop was a life saver as my husband and I went exploring downtown Buffalo on a cold Saturday afternoon. Overwinter Coffee locally roasts all their own beans and has some of the best house made syrups to boot. My husband got a coffee, and I got a mocha. The mocha syrup was not too bitter or overly sweet, but truly just right. It was like drinking hot chocolate with a boost of espresso. Customer service was awesome. The owner and the barista were kind to talk to us about Bufffalo, and provide some good tips for future places to eat. We hear there is a second location, and we are excited to visit! read more

I LOVE this spot downtown! It's a tiny little place to go in, get a coffee, and explore downtown! The baristas are highly personable and the coffee is phenomenal. They always have a "secret" menu every season with fun little creations that always make it fun to stop in. Their fall secret menu is my personal favorite! Definitely worth a stop if you're downtown. read more

So this is my new favorite coffee place and I'm so excited that it's downtown and close to work! First of all it's adorable. The perfect size and spot for this place. Walking in, the gentleman working were warm and friendly. They made everyone feel welcome. I loved that they were so knowledgeable about the products they were serving. I had a blueberry pour over coffee to go and espresso while I was waiting. They explained the flavors and options available which I thought was great. The coffee was absolutely delicious as was the espresso. They serve delicious little things to match with your drinks too. The prices are very reasonable and I've been meaning to get back there ASAP! Definitely something you need to try! read more

Nothing worse than a cappuccino that makes you question whether the milk used was expired. My drink tasted bad. Not bad enough because I took two sips, but bad enough to throw it away after. I really wanted to like it, but the sour & bitterness... My husband also got a cortado and their was something off with his too. Sadly, we don't think we'll be back because of the quality. read more

Overwinter Coffee - the entrance to a coffee shop - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Buffalo, New York

Stopped in around 1:30 during the week and there was no wait (however there was a short line when I was leaving but it was moving fast). They have two people working and a few coffee stations going to get multiple orders going at once. I was indecisive and both of the ladies working were friendly and helpful with recommendations. Limited seating inside, there's a few stools along the window. This is more of a takeout place. Highly recommend if you're looking for takeout coffee! read more
