Soooo good! Probably one of the top coffee shops we visited on a mini cross country road trip…read more Friendly service and moved fairly quickly , even with the line out the door at 7:30. Iced maple latte and chocolate sea salt cookie were divine. The sourdough and greens was not my favorite. I wish it was cut in half and i thought the greens would be on the sandwich.

Came by on a Saturday so it was fairly crowded, but the line moved fast. The interior of the shop…read morewas surprisingly big but pleasant and well lit. They also had a good variety of merch items (apparel, coffee mugs, etc) to browse while waiting in line. They had a blueberry mint flat white on the menu, but since I wanted an iced coffee, the barista was able to ring up an iced latte with blueberry mint syrup for me instead. Super kind of her to recommend! Unfortunately the latte tasted pretty acidic, and I couldn't really taste blueberry or mint at all. My friend got the blueberry mint flat white (which is hot) and had the same complaints, so it might have just been the syrup. So wouldn't recommend the blueberry mint drinks but would be open to trying something else, since the service and ambiance of the shop was nice.

Perfect for coffee or tea. Good for food! Best for to go!…read more Stopped in on a Thursday morning for coffee and breakfast. Their coffee is unmatched and they have lots of fun specialty beverages. We ordered avocado toast and a burrito. Both portions were pretty small, but that was definitely reflected in the price. It would have been better for on the go. A great option if you're in the area!

We also tried the pesto babka, which had nice flakey layers and a strong pesto flavor. I wish it was warm, but maybe we could've asked the cashier to warm it up for us.

Super amazing staff and good coffee, but bring back the banana cold foam !! !read more

Such a cute cafe! Stopped by after going to the farmer's market and it was the perfect pick me up!…read more The interior is super cute and there's a lot of seating inside and outside. They also had another area that had lights - super cozy! I ordered the fruity pebbles matcha latte (already came with oat milk) and it was so good! The matcha was good quality and the flavor was spot on! Definitely would love to stop by again to try their food!

Date of visit: January 25, 2026…read more I was looking for a little pick me up before grabbing breakfast and I noticed that Cargo Coffee East was just a couple blocks down from where we were staying at the Hotel Indigo. Despite the frigid temperatures, I braved the cold for a quite good peppermint mocha. The place definitely has a hipster vibe to it, I would not have been surprised if someone yelled "Suit!" at me as I entered or exited! Staff were not the friendliest, and the extra table between the cashier and you made it hard for her to hear me, and she was clearly annoyed at having to ask me to repeat myself and didn't ask me if I wanted a receipt, either. WiFi was solid and there was a fair amount of space to spread out, but definitely didn't give me the warm fuzzies and I would seek out other coffee the next time I am in the area.

Great little coffee shop, local vibes, lots of seating, fast service, friendly staff…read more Stopped in for a cold drink while out walking today, and was pleasantly surprised to find they have Italian sodas, seltzer, and carbonated "refreshers" in addition to hot and iced coffee drinks. Seems like a fun and creative menu with seasonal drink options. Refresher was nice, just like you'd expect, but a little on the sweet side for me. I got a second cup of seltzer to "cut" the drink and it was perfect. Front room is cozy with moderate noise and activity from the coffee bar and front entrance. There's a second back room that was cooler, quiet, and with lots of open tables for studying. I came on a weekday afternoon, but there was plenty of open seating even with ~10 customers sitting in. I wish there were more outlets, though!

Fabulous customer service and food quality. The environment was very comfortable and inviting…read more My partner and I got pancakes, a grilled cheese and some cold brew vanilla coffee. Everything we ordered was lovely and we would happy return in a heartbeat!
