My aunt had ordered coffee from here for a family party and I really loved it so much. I had to ask…read morewhere she got the party traveling coffee from. I finally made my way to this location on a Saturday morning at 10 AM right before it became super busy. What makes this location special is their medium roasted Guatemalan Bean and their tailored coffee creations. Their coffee is perfect. Not bitter, weak, or too strong. I think this is a great place for people who know what they want, but the ladies here are so kind and helpful and personally assisted me to create an amazing coffee. I ordered a blackberry cheesecake with almond milk and extra shot of espresso and requested the marshmallow toasted topping because I love aesthetics. The ambience inside is so home like and cozy and outside is so peaceful and quiet with fresh air. There is no Wi-Fi, but it's great because it helped make my coffee cost-effective( I was pleasantly very shocked). I had a great time chatting it up outside and enjoying pure freedom by living in the present moment. 10/10 experience so take a bestie or a good book and gooooo!

I really liked the place. It was very laid back and comfortable with a bit of a dive bar atmosphere. The seating included sofa areas, small table, and larger tables. It was not brightly lit, and the music was nice. We went to the counter to place our orders. They had sandwiches already made in an icebox. When ordered, the guy put them in a waffle iron before serving. I had the Cubano, and let me tell you- it was the best one I have ever had. It was so crispy and delicious. My only comment is that it could have used a bit more mustard. I also had an iced Americano with Como La Flor syrup. That was a blend of lavender and blueberry and was house-made. It sounded awesome and delivered awesomeness in every sip. I will definitely be back. I have to try the waffle pressed peanut butter and jelly!

It's a fun place even from the outside! They have coffee, beer, and wine. The barista was friendly and answered our questions. I did a nitro brew with their homemade Mexican vanilla syrup. I do not like sweet coffee and told the barista that. She said they do 1.5 oz of syrup. Which is a lot for my liking. I asked her to put .5 an oz only and it was perfect! They have events here too. Tandem is a place I would put in my rotation!

If you enjoy trying new places and taking a chance then definitely give this one a shot. (I'm a Starbucks fan because you always know your drink will be consistent, but I don't mind mixing it up in pursuit of discovering a wonderful new twist and supporting local businesses. I ordered an oat milk hot latte with Ube flavored syrup. (Usually comes with 4 pumps but I always cut into half because I don't like my lattes super sweet). I've never had that flavor before so I took a chance. It isn't too strong, and it has a little bit of an earthy flavor. I'm glad I tried it and I like my latte. But I would probably try one of their other flavors (I.e. lavender) or one of their signature or seasonal lattes next time.

At first, from the outside, I thought I was walking into a barbershop because of the door, but stepping inside was a fun surprise. The space is really unique--almost like a mini indoor shopping mall. The coffee shop is right at the front, but as you walk further back, there's a barbershop and a few other small shops to explore. Despite all that, it still has a chill, relaxed vibe. Plenty of seating and big windows make it perfect for hanging out with a book. I ordered the Holiday Inn Cambodia coffee, and it was fantastic. the service was great. Barista gave me a few recommendations. I'll definitely be back--this is a great spot to unwind, read, or just get out of the house for a little while. Highly recommend if you're in the area!

He's always answered my questions, no matter how silly or inane they might be and has readily offered perspective on different types of coffee or methods to make. I'll forever be grateful for that! Now onto Gold, I was a bit bummed when he wasn't at the trailer but happy he opened up his own shop and started visiting regularly. From its humble beginnings of a few bar stools, limited menu, and a small space to the wide open space that is Gold today, the constants have been killer coffee, awesome service, and great convo if it's not a mad rush. From standard drip to espresso to imaginative inventions, the coffee is top notch. If you're hankering for something different, talk to them a they will take care of you. Staff has always been awesome and they definitely know what they're doing. I once asked about chemex ratios and was given an on the spot class. If you don't like good coffee, good service or a solid place to chill, then this may not be your place. Also, they let me bring my doggo, Pancho, in, what's not to love?!

I placed my order with popping passionfruit. My order came out right away and I was back out the door feeling refreshed. it was perfect. Not too sweet not to bland. The passionfruit was delicious too. I will be back again.

They do have a variety of options on their menu and at a great price. I ordered two of their special coffees La Canela Loca. They were really good with just the right amount of sweetness and I paid only $8! (For Both). The workers were so friendly and attentive. We talked a little about how the business started and how it's going. We sat outside on their little picnic tables they had. They also have a walk up window you can order from.

Absolutely loved the iced Charlie Brown. It wasn't too sweet and had a nice smooth bold coffee taste. The donuts from cake thieves bakery were delicious as well. They were light, airy, fluffy, and not overly sweet. Service received from staff was excellent and I loved how laidback and friendly they were. I sure wish they had a rewards program because man oh man that would be elite. It's a small cozy coffee shop, but it delivers well, I feel like each time we went there were people coming and going. They move through the orders quickly and efficiently. Next time I'm in San Antonio I'll DEFINITELY be visiting.....likely another 5 times or more (kidding or maybe I'm not **wink**).
