Absolutely loved my first visit to Coalescence Coffee! This spot is more than just a coffee shop…read more It's a nonprofit community hub where everyone's welcome, and you really feel that vibe the moment you walk in. There's tons of space for remote work, community meetings, or just hanging out, and I noticed several groups using the open, airy cafe for coworking and conversation. The staff was incredibly friendly and made us feel right at home. I ordered the Monticello breakfast sandwich (with sausage, egg, cheddar, arugula, and a delicious aioli on an English muffin) and their Brown Sugar No. 05. A creative blend of brown sugar, rosemary, cinnamon, espresso, milk, and a hint of orange bitters. It was unique, refreshing, and seriously addicting! My friend went for the brown sugar latte and a blueberry bagel with cream cheese, which she loved. I was so interested in their nonprofit work, and after a quick website visit, I learned that Coalescence creates space for all kinds of community groups to gather and learn together, partnering locally and globally to lift up important work. Events, co-working, and shared community workspace are all available, with donors and volunteers supporting the mission so this resource keeps growing. If you're looking for great coffee, delicious food, or just a welcoming place to connect, this is it. Can't wait to come back!

Was looking for good coffee in Ghent area and glad I found this place. Large, nice area to drink…read moregood coffee and study, work or hang out. Couldn't find parking on street in front but they have large parking lot in back. Came just for coffee so didn't get to try their food offerings. They appear to take coffee serious here (with weight to measure out ingredients). I asked if they had coffee menu and shown menu on wall. But they actually had signature coffee menu at cash register that had some interesting drinks. Worth coming to get good coffee.

I'm sorry but $8 for a tiny cup of matcha?! I barely had any liquid in the cup because of the ice…read more I feel like I got ripped off. The worst part? The customer in front of me ordered the same drink, but hers was in a bigger glass. I was excited to check this place out while visiting rva from nova, but left very disappointed. I came here to get some work done, but the wifi didn't work either.. I also waited at the empty register for about 5 minutes before someone attended to me. So much for the nice ambiance... this place has a lot of potential, but the service and drink quality is dragging it down!

The space and area is huge and modern, which I liked! The items I got were very average in my…read moreopinion though. I got this special latte they had on their signature menu, but it really just tasted like a normal latte. I also got a red velvet cookie that was extremely hard to bite through like a rock, and an English muffin sandwich that just seems like it was popped into the microwave. I don't think anything I got was worth the price. Service was quite slow for everything, but it seems like there were only three staff members when I went. They were nice, at least.
