My husband and I were excited to discover this local independent coffee shop, however, we both left…read morenot overly impressed. I ordered the grasshopper latte and strongly disliked it to the point of leaving most of it. My husband ordered the hot choc-o latte, and while definitely better than my drink, we both thought it was just okay. We also ordered a sweet treat that they didn't have in stock, so we opted for a scone that wasn't all that good/was fairly dry. The service was fine overall. The woman working behind the counter answered the questions we asked. The atmosphere felt cold to us/lacked warmth despite obvious efforts to decorate for the holidays/make it look attractive.

Location: 237 N Water Street, Kent Ohio Website: scribbles…read morecoffee company.com Hours: see website Menu: see website or bisiy Parking: plenty of street parking Whether you are looking for quality coffee beans delivered free of charge (locally) or an expertly-made beverage, consider this charming little coffee shop in Kent, Ohio. We actually came here two mornings in a row and enjoyed a nice number of coffee selections. Each day the line flexed from just 1-2 people to lining up outside the door and after the first sip of day 1 coffee (caramel macchiato, hot): I could see why. This is the real deal. A real coffee shop where your expert barista concocts your drink fresh for each order. Day 2 coffees we mixed it up a bit - a "black squirrel" (mocha with extra shots of espresso) and an iced oat milk drink. Really great flavor and the perfect way to start our day. There is limited indoor seating if you wish to stay for awhile to work on a fresh baked bakery item (the case had at least 10 options to choose from - all looked really good). There is also some outdoor seating available in front of the entrance. Both days, we elected to take our drinks to go and stroll through the downtown Kent area while enjoying the delicious coffees. Tips: 1) the menu is available inside - on the back wall and also on a banner over a bank of windows to the "right" of the bakery case. Had I seen this I could have spared my question of "what is the black squirrel" but the barista was polite and didn't mind. 2) ignore the line. If there is one - trust me, it's worth it. Allow 30 minutes to pick up your coffee and you should be within this timeframe.

Love the locally roasted retail bean selection, love being able to have a good variety to take home and enjoy.

The store boasts Coffee. Sports. Vibes…read more As a person who only knows vibes, I can attest they absolutely crushed those. As a person who drinks coffee but wouldn't consider myself a coffee snob, I could tell the coffee was good. It was smooth and was even drinkable when a hot drink went lukewarm bc I didn't drink it fast enough. As for sports, I know nothing about that but they did in fact have 4 TVs playing sports so I can confirm sports were indeed present at the establishment. Great place. Great coffee. Sports. I'll be back.

Such a cozy coffee shop with so many things to offer: nice workers, many coffee/breakfast options, stickers, cute indoor area, and plenty of parking out front!! I decided on a bacon, egg, & cheese croissant sandwich paired with a vanilla latte!!! Both delicious!! The sandwich was bigger than I thought and stayed warm while I was eating it!!! My latte was also delicious, a classic iced vanilla latte, that gave me enough energy to take on a bunch of 5th graders!!! I highkey recommend giving this place a visit if you want good food and coffee!!! Cheers!!!

Here's the thing, Mike's has always been a favorite of mine to take friends and family to because it's such a cool place with a ton of quirky decor and themed rooms. You can't miss the X-fighter plane right outside the entrance. They have outdoor seating during the warm months, but inside you can also sit and dine inside a bus! Aside from the experience, they have a massively EXTENSIVE menu! I mean, I'm not exaggerating! Of the many times I've been here, I haven't had the same thing twice. And I'm usually a creature of habit. There is something for literally everyone! The service is always good, the food is always great,... and best of all, their fares are always affordable. I love that I never have to break the bank to come here... and that's why I keep coming back!

Artisan used to be one of the best coffee shops in the region, but the quality of food and service…read morehas drastically declined in the last year. The interior vibes are the same; open, spacious, and clean. However, the food and most importantly, the staff, no longer maintain the quality that made me a regular in the first place. Artisan used to have amazing coffee and excellent food, but the coffee is no longer very good. I think this is due to the staff. The food has significantly declined in quality. The hollandaise on their breakfast sandwich is now a broken, greasy mess. The "sourdough" is generic white bread. What's even worse than the food is the staff. In the last two years, the staff has degenerated to an incompetent , bedraggled mess. The staff has never had to wear a uniform, but perhaps it's time for them to institute one. In my last several visits, I've seen grossly oversized clothes that have the staff looking like they just rolled out of bed. Hair is unkempt, not brushed, loose, and hanging down past their shoulders. A recipe for getting hair in my food. Furthermore, the staff is no longer smiling or friendly and can't answer basic questions about the menu. They seem confused about where they are and the service they provide. On top of all this, they maintain their strict breakfast timeframe. Why they have decided to stick to antiquated time limits for the food that is always available in their kitchen is beyond me. The barest minimum of market research would show how popular breakfast sandwiches are all day. What once was a vibrant, friendly coffee shop with great food, good coffee, and pleasant employees now feels like a dressed up McDonalds.

This was my first time stopping into Artisan Coffee as it is a bit of a dive for me, so I was happy…read moreto finally be in the area to give it a go! This place is a charmer for sure and has a vibe to it that is cozy. The space itself is larger than what I was expecting and it was nice that they offered additional parking across the street as their lot is small and gets full very quickly. The space also has a stage and lots of windows for natural light which I loved. The baristas were all very friendly and knowledgeable about the different drinks and what they offered, which was really nice. Unfortunately, I did not try any food, but their menu offers a wide range of breakfast and lunch options including sandwiches, soups, bakery and more. I reached for the cold brew and a friend got a lavander matcha lattee. The drinks were good, nothing out of this world but I was glad they offered additional cream, sugar, etc out in the open in case people decided they wanted to add anything to their drinks. They offer a wide range of drinks including some really interesting specialty drinks which all sound fun to try. Overall, Artisan Coffee is a cute, charming coffee shop that offers a wide variety of food and drink and I am sure you will find something you enjoy at this cafe. If I am ever in the area again, I would definitely consider coming back here to sit down rather than to-go.
