parmesan black pepper croissant
Morgan A.

Love the vibes here- slow morning crowd & great coffee. The parmesan black pepper croissant was fabulous. The atmosphere is welcoming and old school and we loved the coffee too.

My coworker and I come here regularly to get work done - incredible they're open until midnight, not that I want caffeine that late. Bummer they no longer serve beer in the late afternoon, even though some of the business photos reflect old times. Parking is okay. There are a few spots in front but otherwise find somewhere on the street. I usually get the Blackmoor coffee with syrup. Very caffeinated. There's so many beverage options! If you need Wi-Fi connection, ask for a two hour code. Great that they reinforce this because it's always so packed in here. Pastries are yummy. There's electrical outlets everywhere. Perfect spot to get focused and work or hang out!

Love the early AND late night hours

Mike Brady definitely designed the interior of this place. It's a fun blast from the past decor. Tons of seating to get some late night homework done or catch up on some work. Staff was friendly and inviting and the Breve was spot on with great flavor, not too weak and not too strong (if there is such a thing).

Setting couch with coffee table. Great for those big talks.

Nice place to grab a coffee and dig into reading, homework, conversations, work, or just people seeing. If your using the wifi make sure to ask for the code they are individualized for 2 hours each which is pretty fair. No complaints really, and its open till midnight. (Unlike some locations) 10/10

This is such a fun spot- and their chai is excellent! Make sure to get the WiFi code when you order (you get 2 hours free after you login). The pastries all look superb- too bad I ate before I came in!!

Drip coffee 8/10 and the grinch 8/10. Grinch was too sweet for me but the matcha taste was strong. I went on a Monday so there was many people there working but everyone was respectful. Great place to try.

3.5 cups Bardo is okay. They serve a great selection of coffee drinks and specialty drinks plus a pretty decent food menu. Service was a tad slow and the ambiance was so so. Would I come back ....yes...but I much prefer the coffee at Huckleberry roasters next door.

Came here to get some work done. They have lots is spaces with outlets throughout. I ordered an iced spicy chai and breakfast burrito, which was made in house. Both were delicious and the service was quick and friendly. There was a 2hr wifi code provided at the register. I will be back!

Coffee bar

Spacious and lively coffee shop with lots of seating for people to do work at. Got the hot americano small for the morning after a night out and the coffee was definitely helpful for the hangover haha clearly I needed the coffee because I spilled a fifth of the cup upon pick up but the baristas were super helpful with clean up and even offered to fill it back up for me. Only con was the lack of available parking spaces in the lot because it's so popular!!

Inside bar area. They also have cozy tables and couches.
Xia A.

Yes, yes, yes to coffeehouses opened until midnight. I love their special coffees and drinks. Great 2 hour wi-fi (so no one overstays way too much). I appreciate what they do! Go check them out at any time of the day.

Fun street sign

Is the wifi password based or web-portal based? Since I have to use a VPN for work, I can't use the latter.

Easy to get to this location as well as find street parking. Coffee to go as well as flavorful and filling food. Almost everything on the menu is vegan/vegetarian or "regular" so that's a huge plus. Something for everyone! Breakfast is the main event but they do lunch stuff also. I mean seriously DELICIOUS food. I'm a veggie but anyone that has tried whatever I ordered said it competes with the standard meat option if not surpasses it. Respect. Best vibes with the music they play. Staff is friendly and quick to check on you and call your order out. Patio if you'd like to sit outside but it only holds a few groups. Inside is nice and airy with some taller community tables and lower two top or four to six top tables. Line moves quicker for drinks but the food is speedy for sure. Just made with love and attention. I've never had a meal look less than or sloppy. Attention to detail is top notch. Food can be fun and comforting and still kid ass. They also do some boozier options if that's your vibe. They run off Toast for their POS but are also on InKind which is a solid app. You can order on their website or via InKind. If you know, you KNOW. Busier Saturday and Sundays but that is to be expected. Mornings will get busy for nearby people but it's always worth popping in. Thanks for all you do crew!

Finally tried Odie Bs…read more First the parking is mostly street so be ready to find a space. There were a few available shortly around 9:15am Sunday when we arrived and a small line already as they open at 9am. The staff is extremely friendly and efficient. One person came to get drink orders to help things move forward. They have a lot of food (vegan menu/option for many items) as well as non alcoholic and alcoholic drinks. They had a small case of raccoon bakery pastries as well. The raspberry (fresh not the canned crap) pop tart was a delightful treat to eat while we waited for a take out order. The drip coffee is pour your own with simple syrup, cinnamon, oat milk and regular along with lids and sleeves. Very good I think a medium to dark roast. The pickled things were amazing. They were pickles and in a delicious brine. It is $6 and you get four cut into quarters. The chopped cheese was a great size and the optional sunny side egg made it feel brunch worthy. I'd get this again. There is a vegan option for this as well as most of their other selections. My wife tried the vegan boujee which comes on focaccia with tofu & just egg scramble, a herb vegan cheese spread, greens, muhammara (roasted red pepper and walnut spread) and za'atar. She found it had too many ingredients. While she liked the vegan aspect of it the sandwich was just too busy. My sister in-law chose the special which was fried chicken on a biscuit with egg, Tasso ham and gravy. She said it was good but very heavy without anything to cut through the fat. It is priced similarly to other restaurants which is a bit pricey. It does add up quickly so uncertain if I'll be back to Odie B's anytime soon.

They simply Do Not care about general food safety getting a hot meal here is rather risky I will explain why. My friend was a cook here for a short while and quit on them once he realized they care nothing about serving food that is safe to eat, he saw them do sooo many things that would easily make the food contaminated and unsafe to eat and somehow that was there process of doing things. Here are a couple examples of menu items one should try to steer clear of Chicken parm sandwich- they cook off a large batch of the chicken cutlets and let them sit at room temp for a hour or two until someone orders one they refries them for a minute or so, your supposed to keep food hot once it is cooked especially chicken to leave cooked chicken at room temp for so long is extremely risky to the public's health. Meatball sandwich- they leave there meatballs on the hot line all day then they save all of the hot food items from the day and reuse them the next day without properly cooling any of the food and the cooks will leave these item sit out at room temp for about 45 mins before even putting them into the cooler. Many issues with this practice first of all hot food should be discarded after 5 hours according to the health department because after 5 hours it will start growing bacteria, to leave it on a hot line all day then save them for the next day and not even cool them down properly is Crazy risky to people's health and they do not just do this with the meatballs they do it for many of there hot dishes they are used for days on in, not properly cooled and not properly tracked for how many times it has been reheated and such me they keep them in the same pans it's flat out gross. Other issues my friend encountered there was never seeing anyone at all wash there hands at any point in time, a ancient dishwashing machine that didn't clean anything at all it didn't even get hot so half of there dishes are greasy and have food residue on them, in his short time there he saw people fired for no reason what's so ever from what he was told the owner fires people left and right and doesn't even give reasons as to why, that's why they have ads up on indeed looking for employees 24/7.
