Get here - quickly! We were traveling through and stopped for the night. Enter the morning question, "where to get coffee." I mean, yes, the hotel offers "free" coffee, but come on. There is no shortage of options in the downtown Lima area, which surprised us. After scouring the we sites, pictures, and reviews, we landed solidly on Vibe Coffeehouse & Cafe. The deciding factor? They roast their own beans. I may sound dramatic with this next statement,but I promise - there's no drama. I had the best and truest flat white I've ever had in America. Nope, not kidding. Nope, not a dramatic statement. I only speak the truth. I'm not a massive world traveler, but this flat white rivals those I've had in Denmark, Sweden, and Ireland. It's great quality and I was sad when I had my last sip as the car rolled through Cincinnati. The breakfast sandwich wasn't quite as epic an experience, yet it was exactly what I wanted and needed to start the next day of travel. I had the turkey sausage, egg, and swiss cheese breakfast on a croissant. Not greasy and I'm still sated 3 hours later. Nice job! For those who live in Lima, you're so lucky to have this gem in your backyard. For those traveling through, get off the 75 and take the time to drive 2ish miles - Vibe is worth it and you are, too! read more

Awesome local coffee spot. Very upscale and Vibey! Perfect place to relax too with a very comfortable space

*review for the remote worker* Vibe Coffeehouse and Cafe is the perfect spot to escape the confines of home for a day. They offer a variety of good coffee options, fast internet, and friendly staff. I appreciate the inviting ambiance, and the music volume strikes a nice balance--it's audible without overpowering during virtual meetings. The cafe provides ample parking and offers both indoor and outdoor seating options. It's a great spot overall, though I wish they extended their hours beyond 4pm; they do open early at 7:30am, so you can spend the day working here and still make it home in time to start dinner. read more

Back to try one more time. Coffee is absolutely awful. It's brighter now. The service was like being with space cadets. Messes up everything. And forgot my son's milk shake. Wake up. Wow. No more trying this place. read more

This fun coffee shop near downtown Lima is a wonderful place to gather or work. With a menu that offers a plethora of caffeinated, and non caffeinated options, there's something for everyone. They have some breakfast type sandwiches and a few treats. Definitely order the macaroons! The vibe inside is chill and comfortable. They have plenty of tables and chairs to work at, some plush chairs, and a sofa or two. With its rustic charm, the walls are adorned with every Rae Dunn-esque coffee related sign. There is free wifi available as well. On a nice day, the roller doors come up and the coffee shop is filled with fresh air. read more

Great coffee shop. Cool urban vibe. Delicious cappuccinos and breakfast sandwiches. Great customer service.

I'm a fan! Vibe is the perfect place to meet a friend or small group of friends for coffee! I love the cozy, cabin/industrial feel in the design and decor. The darkened, open ceilings revealing the duct system, the industrial pipe handrails, exposed brick, wooden chests, wood paneling on the walls, Edison lights, wood furniture, and tan colored leather seats create a cozy and relaxing environment perfect for reading book, catching up with friends, listening to the music played on the stage, or enjoying a board game all while sipping a cup of coffee. There is plenty of seating for parties of one to 5 at tables and couples can enjoy the comfort of their cozy leather sofas and love seats. There is a small stage where it appears guests perform. There is a bookshelf of board games available for guests. Walls are decorated with pictures of pop icons enjoying coffee. The coffee menu has a variety of traditional coffee drinks from mochas to an assortment of coffee and espresso drinks (latte, macchiato, cappuccino, red eye, and house specials). The menu includes French Press and pour over. I don't know what brewing device they use for pour overs. They have other drinks like hot and cold teas, chai, and pop soda. They also prepare sandwiches and sides. Milk options include regular, skim/lactose free, and almond. I've visited twice and each time I ordered a cafe latte that tasted like a typical latte. They have a Rancilio espresso machine. I couldn't tell what kind of grinder they use. read more

Super cute inside but I asked for an iced latte and it looks like they just use premade cold brew from a jug. Didn't taste great.

Huge coffee shop with tons of seating. There was a large line when I got in but it didn't take too long to get through the line and get my coffee. Good cup of coffee and from the smell alone I regretted not trying one of the waffles! read more

We were just passing through the area and looking for a good place to get food/drinks. The employees were so sweet and patient with us even though we took a while to figure out what we wanted to order haha. Not only was the customer service great, but their drinks and sandwiches were so good too! The place is also cleaned up and so cute! Thanks Vibe Coffeehouse for an amazing experience :) read more

Coffee and service was great! Quick, courteous and tasty. Will make it a regular stop!

Spent the weekend passing through Lima and found this cafe. Baristas were friendly and fast. Coffee was beyond amazing. Will be back!

Stopped here while traveling in Lima. I love little coffee shops and bakeries. This one has a charm that you usually only see in artwork depicting coffee shops. I had a pour over and a breakfast sandwich. Both were great. There's a small stage for poetry or small acts, so that's be cool to check out in the future. I'll make this my regular morning stop next time I'm in town. read more
