Hazelnut latte, drip coffee, and seasonal "the grinch" matcha and pistachio latte
Meghan D.

For all the time I've spent in this general area, I don't know how or why I have never been to Bardo before now. It is such a gem! My sister used to go regularly when she was in school and let me know that the hours were super awesome for that routine - open at 6am, closed at midnight. Perfect for an early morning study session or late night cram. Or if you're just in the mood for all-hours coffee! Parking is admittedly a bit cramped in the front and pretty awkward to get out of if it's busy, but there is a lot behind the building with more space. There are a surprising number of tables and comfy chairs inside, and the vibe is kinda retro which my sister and I both really love. Their menu is pretty big and they also had a ton of holiday drinks to choose from. My sister has raved about the coffee they use (kaladi), so I got a drip coffee and since I wanted a little festive treat, I also got "the grinch" lol, which was a matcha latte with oat milk and pistachio. Take a wild guess which cup was mine in the photo. My sister got a hazelnut latte, which also came out really pretty. The coffees were ready very quickly, and we were able to find a little table near the back of the shop. Our three drinks (all 12oz) came out to about $16 which I think is pretty on par with specialty coffee drinks, so I felt it was worth the price. The one girl we interacted with at the counter was super friendly, too! It seems to be a very popular spot, which doesn't surprise me even a little bit, and I cannot wait to come back again to try other drinks!

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.

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).

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!

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

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.

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.

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!!

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!

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!!

Fun street sign

As soon as you walk in you can see their hydroponics system growing the most beautiful produce. You can also purchase their handmade dressings and greens to go!! They then use all this incredibly fresh and flavorful produce to craft intricate salads, soups, and sandwiches. All salads and soups can be ordered gluten free, and there are many vegan / vegetarian options. We ordered the lotus salad, lazeena salad, and tomato bisque. I was so jealous of the zhougg sauce on the lazeena that I ordered a side of the sauce for the lotus salad, it was an incredible addition!! The soup was the perfect compliment, and we were absolutely stuffed when we left. These portions are huge! Seriously check this place out for the ultimate sustainable, clean, organic, delicious, and stunning meal.

I ended up getting quiche for myself, pepperoni pizza for my wife as well as a plain croissant, chocolate pistachio croissant and maple cinnamon bun.

The cinnamon bun was also very good but the frosting was a bit sweeter for my taste. A must visit if you're considering a solid bakery!

We were hoping to try the breakfast sandwiches but were disappointed to see that they stop serving them after 11 am- which is fine, we ordered the vegetation artichoke sandwich to share instead. It was super wet and goopy without any crunch or other texture, but the flavor was good. The prices were high for what we got. We also tried the chocolate pistachio croissant which was also super messy and leaked everywhere on the warm day. The staff was friendly enough and there is plenty of outside seating.

The restaurant shares its' space in the strip mall with other businesses all of which provide something different! Parking is ample and layout inside is nice offering a variety of seating options, including the patio! STAR #2: Staff is friendly, welcoming and provided great recommendations off their ever-changing menu. We opted for a round of mocktails and sodas, before ordering. Our server was patient, brought our food out in record time and was pleasant throughout our visit. STAR #3: The food is fab! After looking at the menu ahead of time, I was interested in trying the Peach Palisade pizza with a peach lemonade (seriously give me all the peaches!!) and I did just that! We started off with the blueberry habanero wings which were perfectly drenched in sauce and sweet with a major kick! They weren't overly fried and were lump in size! YUM! We also opted to order a second pizza split, with pepperoni and other half with their mushroom special! All pizzas were larger than expected, looked fabulous and were delicious! The crust was crisp and not heavy, which I enjoyed! STAR #4: Prices are reasonable for the quality of ingredients and service! This spot will def be on my rotation when in the area!

Brunch with the ladies! My daughter, my friend and I came for brunch…read more We were welcomed in and seated. We did opt for the shaded outdoor area which is always nice. Genaye took care of us. We had some mimosas to share. We chose orange and cranberry juice to go with the bubbles. I decided I was feeling more lunch than breakfast and chose the Southwest Turkey Club. It is served on toasted ciabatta with tomato, red onion, shaved turkey, bacon, roasted poblano pepper and chipotle aioli with pepperjack cheese. Yum! I got fries as my side as well as an extra serving of the chipotle aioli to dip. My daughter selected the Works Burger with the day's soup, corn chowder. Her burger had lettuce, tomato, red onion, bacon and sharp cheddar. She really enjoyed it. Genaye was fantastic. Great service!

Winner winner bread dinner??? Nice try, Matt…read more I walk by this place all the time. ALL. THE. TIME. I frequent a local spot a few doors down weekly. At the times I go, Bread Winners is usually closed. So I never think too much of it. And I haven't thought about actually checking it out in years. Until the other day, my wife was like, "hey we should go get breakfast at the place next to Bluegrass." Well, we all know what happened next. With the in-laws and little man in tow, we ventured out for a Sunday morning breakfast on the patio. I had no idea what to expect, all I knew is that I wanted to sit outside. Their patio is amazing, completely turfed, shaded, and covered. Nice big chairs and tables, too. Portions are huge, and extremely generous for $15 plates. This is old school breakfast and brunch, not the trendy BS you see on social media. Which is why you won't find too many people online talking about this place. Well, except for Yelp, of course! I ordered a green chile scramble loaded with eggs, chorizo, potatoes, and spicy pork green chile. It came with toast and I loaded it up the scramble with cholula. The food was great, with the green chile being the star studded standout. It had an awesome kick to it! Service was friendly, coffee was refilled multiple times, and we were stuffed. Can't ask for much more these days!
