We love an excellent coffee, so we visit a lot of coffee shops across the country. This vibe was so…read moreunique. Very minimalist, open-concept interior with a large triangular island-type seating with people working on their laptops, and also broad places to sit in the windows. It was packed and a little loud, but pleasant. The line was a bit long. The staff was super friendly and the coffee was really excellently made. I prefer a more robust roast, so keep that in mind if you have specific tastes, but that's a matter of preference, not their ability. I really respect that they're closed Sunday and their staff gets a rest day!

Onyx is one of the best roasters in the country and it's a real commitment for a shop to build around them. The iced drinks come sealed in clear cans, machine-lidded at the bar. It's a genuinely different presentation, it doesn't sweat through, and it holds up if you're walking around with it. I had the cold brew and the matcha -- both clean and not over-sweetened. The space is sharp: marble counter, black cabinetry, warm wood, good light in the morning. Staff were friendly and happy to talk through the menu without being precious about it. Menu runs deep -- signature lattes, four matcha options, their oat milk cold brew latte by the bottle. Easy recommend.

It's nice and sweet which I really appreciate too! I also got a cream cheese danish and holy stars this pastry is amazing. Even cold, it's delightful. I have to mention how lovely and sweet the whipped cream is. If you want a treat, get whipped cream on your drink and savor it. Someone has handmade knitted items for sale and they are CUTE! There were only 3 items left because it's Valentine's Day, but I can only imagine how cute other items are.

He then tries to claim that a flat white is the same thing as a cappuccino whilst making an insulting comment towards Australians. I should have went to vibrant coffee around the corner. And to my guy here: when someone orders two different drinks, don't make the same drink and try to play it off like your some superior barista; your job is to serve coffee as it's ordered, that's it. All I wanted was to enjoy a morning coffee but instead had to deal with some asshole with a complex.

Was looking for a new spot to try out coffee and I went on here of course to see which place to…read morepick from. I saw great reviews about how amazing the coffee and honey is here. Needless to say this spot deserves all its flowers because the coffee is phenomenal. I was greeted instantly by the people behind the counter. They were friendly and it was full of people who were also super friendly. It is a small cozy space with tons of other drinks and cool products to pick from. I had a hot pistachio honey oat latte and I savored it for a few hours because it was really that good. The coffee had a fruity and nutty taste that made my taste buds so happy. The pistachio and honey mix was the perfect combination. Can't wait to go back to try more!

I'm not usually an iced coffee girly but this was amazing! They have an adorable mural for that selfie pic, and cute vintage/ mis matched furniture.

Such great service and nice staff behind the counter- everything was such a good experience! I'll be back again soon!

I thought it was pretty good and was a different environment to grab a coffee. A friend and I went on a Sunday morning, so it was pretty busy and we had to wait a little bit to find a seat. We found street parking on Ingersoll and had a short walk over which didn't bother us, but I can understand how parking is an issue during busier times. My friend and I both enjoyed our drinks but weren't blown away. I also tried the breakfast burrito which was okay, but I probably wouldn't order again. I was hoping to try the breakfast sandwich but they were sold out. I liked this shop, but it is not a place I would go out of my way for.

It was popping in there but we were still able to find a area to sit in the back. The matcha was great and my friend enjoyed her coffee. We enjoyed each other's company for a few hours and when we left we grabbed another drink to go. She grabbed a matcha and I grabbed a decaf tea made of cherries, apples and cinnamon. I forgot the name but it was really good. Reminded me of a traditional tea we have in México called ponche also made out of a bunch of fruits and cinnamon. Also the glass jars you get to go are so cute and I definitely will be reusing it for my drinks. Recommend for anyone to come here. I think it's one of my favorite coffee shops now!
