    two cups of coffee on a table
    A K.

    Very cozy! I enjoy the atmosphere and study energy from this place. It's also close to OU campus so convenient for students. Service is good and their crème frappe's never disappoint if you have a sweet tooth.

    I came in with my friends today the 13th around noon, we have loved going to stella nova in the past and haven't come in a long time. The food and coffee were great as usual but everything else was abysmal! Our orders were taking long (around 20 minutes) so we came up there and asked very nicely for an update on our food and drinks. This didn't make sense as to the amount of people in the lobby/ drive through. I think they were too busy trying to catch a cockroach (pictured below). Honestly all of this didn't bother us- we've worked in the service realm, and sometimes these things happen. I wasn't going to write a review until we pulled out of the parking lot, looked to our lefts, and an employee, flipped us off through the drive through window. This behavior is completely unacceptable and nothing like we've ever experienced before. Would hate for this to happen again to the lovely people of Norman.

    Overall a great stop not far off the interstate. Don't expect it to be a true craft coffee experience but it's better than Starbucks or other fast coffee options. Wide selection of food and drinks that were reasonably priced. The space is large and inviting, clearly used to be a fast food restaurant or something. The staff was friendly and helpful. I got a hazelnut chocolate cream latte made hot and honestly loved it. It was smooth and very sweet. My husband got a cold brew with honey and cold foam, he too enjoyed his drink! I would definitely return next time we are driving through! They had super cute merchandise and branding as well.

    I am sorry but this is not a real coffee shop. It looks cute and industrial from the outside, the inside is quite large with lots of space between tables and sofas and might be a good place to work remote from. The staff was pleasant but couldn't answer questions regarding their roasting process, where they get their beans and I find it annoying that they only share prices for 16oz (medium) drinks on their TV screen menus because they couldn't figure out how to fit everything on it. I'm sorry but between a TV menu and a cheap electric espresso machine, all I can think is CHEAP. Also, If you like a strong coffee tell them exactly how you want your drink made because they don't put very many shots unless asked.

    This is one of my favorite coffee shops in Norman. It's always a good experience, but the last time my boyfriend and I went we were helped by a barista named Reese and she was GREAT!! He forgot to get his cinnamon roll, and when we went back through the drive thru to get it Reese gave us an extra cinnamon roll for free!! She was seriously so nice & had great customer service. Our go to place

    Personal and attentive service, delicious coffee drinks and fresh pastries in a cool environment - Stella Nova has it all! It's 45 degrees out and we all need a warm-up. So glad we saw this cool coffee shop on our way out of town - it's the perfect blend of cool vibe and hot coffee to keep us warm and toasty on a crappy gray foggy cold-to-your-bones day. All orders made perfectly according to each drinker's druthers - and served up fast and HOT! 5 nothing better than hot coffee on a cold day stars

    I really like the Stella Nova in OKC so I thought I'd like the one in Norman and I do! I do! They are cute and funky and actually serve good coffee. They have my favorite almond flavored syrup which makes me supremely happy. They have good pastries. I especially like their spinach pastry which is savory and yummy. At this Stella Nova the decor is eclectic funk and fun! Fun! Fun! In one of the bathrooms they have the coolest mirror (check out my pic).

    Joseph is the best I like the coffee he is so good at making coffee he is good and the best. also the chocolate milk is very cold and fresh. also I do recommend the chocolate muffin and Joseph is a good boy .

    Food: 4.9 (Brussels were a miss) Service: 7 out of 5 (Thank…read moreyou, Madison F.) Ambiance: 5 (cool building!) We ended up at Scratch after trying to go to a nearby restaurant and it didn't work out. I called to see if we could be seated at Scratch without a wait and the person answering the phone was SO kind. Turns out he was the host. We were seated immediately and Madison F. took our drink and app order. The green chile hummus was OUTSTANDING although I would have liked some carrots or celery with the pita instead of the olives. Cosmopolitan and Old Fashioned were well mixed. The entrees? Holy cow. I had the coffee crusted pork tenderloin with Parmesan risotto and lemon Brussels sprouts. The pork tenderloin was the BEST I've ever had, hands down. The risotto was creamy and delish. Not a fan of the Brussels sprouts as they were too oily. Husband had the Creole seafood pasta and he ate every bite. We will absolutely be back.

    Interior- the entire place looks like a social media post with intention out behind creating…read morememoeable moments of togetherness, laughter, and selfies. Lots of faux foliage and neon cursive isms on the walls. We sat at the bar, which gave a beautiful display of the spirits inventory. The menu gave so many good savory options for the Fall weather from pork to beef to seafood, and appeared to feature mushrooms in a lot of their dishes. The bartender said he just started, so we knew to expect novice service. We had to flag him down for every order with only 4 people at the bar and when another staff member came back to help, neither of them could answer questions about the menu items such as whether or not the risotto had mushroom chunks in it. Fried green tomatoes - The plating speaks for itself, so I'll leave that to the readers' discretion. This a favorite for me wherever I go, but this was so bland, I was confused by the lack of flavor medley you usually get with this mixture. It appeared to have pepper seeds but I couldn't find any to determine what they were using for the heat component. They might have opted not to include a pepper. It was entirely watery and watered down. The tomatoes were breaded with more flour than cornmeal, which is fine, but we couldn't figure out what they were seasoned with. With the amount of water left around the slice causing a hard to cut, I stopped at one. This appetizer is served with your option of pimento cheese or black bean corn salsa. We chose the salsa, which is comprised of black beans, corn, tomato, red onion and traces of maybe cilantro or parsley. The buttermilk ranch has something like dill or similar note added into it, which helped make up for the lack of flavoring, but didn't cover the problematic bite. But let's get into the exciting stuff: We ordered the 4 dishes that stood out most based on sides pairings. Meatloaf: a slice of dense, somewhat mushy meatloaf loaded with flavor and topped with heat in the form of a tomato base sauce. It is mentioned on the menu that the space is spicy, but it really give us a surprising heat that balances well with the sweetness and savory notes. It was served on a plateau of red creamed potatoes. Listed as mashed, but definitely creamed. The potatoes mix very well with the flavor able oils from the meatloaf. This dish is also served with a seasonal vegetable which turned out to be eggplant and red bell pepper. I ended up picking out the red bell pepper to add to the risotto that came with the pork loin and leaving the eggplant. Pork tenderloin - encrusted with coffee grounds - a very interesting take on slow cooked pork. The risotto was creamy and soaked up the flavor from the tenderloin, which made for a wonderful infusion. Chicken Alfredo - this creamy dish was an easy fall weather pick. We took this home and the reheat was even thicker and flavorful from the seasoning and juices on the chicken. Salmon - this was served on a bed of thick, hearty risotto with lemon-fried Brussels sprouts. You can't taste lemon, so I think the acidity might have helped balance the Brussels as they cooked down. I prefer a crispy Brussels, so not my cup of tea, but the flavor was nice with the salmon's seasoning. Overall, the service, plating, and quality testing could improve the experience, but I don't want that to overshadow the incredible flavor pairings the kitchen put out for this first visit. Very much looking forward to returning for the next menu turnover to see what amazing plates Scratch will create
