The variety is excellent - whatever you like in coffee, whether you know what you want and stick to it or you're a novice, trying to find your thing or you're adventurous, looking for a new thing... they have it. But that's not why I give this place 5 stars. The space itself is excellent. It's comfortable, cozy and inviting, despite a tricky location. It's well designed and lit and has a giant window to view that actual roaster. But that's not why I give it five stars. The people love coffee... Like, they looooooove coffee! And they know coffee. I went in and they said "How can we help you?" And I said "I want to buy coffee, but I don't know what I want." And both employees lit up. They know the coffee language AND how to explain it to a novice without making you feel like a novice. And the more feedback you give, the better their next suggestion will be. The team here is camped right at the intersection of passion and knowledge and their love for it is contagious. I look forward to emptying a bag - yes, because it's delicious - but also so I can go in and talk to them again!

TLDR: Very good. Very expensive. I'd go 3 1/2 stars if I could…read more The coffee is fine, probably a tick above average. The smoothies are excellent. I like the Green Goodness, my wife likes the Velvet Elvis... And the service is good, mostly young people, polite. Totally acceptable but nothing I'd call "extraordinary." The price kills me every time... Coffee is on par with what you'd expect going out for coffee. But the smoothies are exorbitantly - almost movie theatre popcorn levels - expensive. Turns my stomach a little every time we go... but we keep going, so I guess that's the market. Food options are what you'd expect, prepackaged, overpriced but no more than any other upscale coffee shop. In summary, Everything is good. It's just expensive.

We have been in Lincoln for four days and yet to find a place that served espresso drinks the way I…read morewanted them. And that had a good flavor of coffee. I tried The Mill, it was tolerable. I tried Meadowlark coffee too. It was tolerable, but not good. Being from Kansas City, I did not realize how fortunate I am to have several spots with their own blend of beans, and freshly air roasted beans while you wait. But I'm so glad we stayed an extra day because we came across Cultiva Coffee. It was about 10 minutes from our hotel and it was so worth it. They also had a seasonal crêpe that had strawberries and chocolate ganache. It was so good. No, it was excellent. My husband and I almost fought over the last bite. But we were certainly measuring up the size of the bites. Lol the atmosphere was so cute and original. I absolutely loved it. I took a minute to tell them how much I appreciated them before I left, but I'm also telling you now. In addition to the Coffee, I appreciated the Service. When I ordered, the young lady never made me feel like I needed to hurry with what I was gonna say or that I wanted too many details. I appreciate this as an older person. I get tired of the impatience of young people these days and she was very kind. And the person who made the drink, made it perfectly to my liking. Not too hot to where I had to wait to drink it, but not just warm like it had been cooling off. I admit, I am very critical when it comes to my cappuccino. That's why I make it at home most the time so I can have it the way I want it. So a place that checked all the boxes is rare to me. If you try this place, I hope you have the same experience.

Cultiva coffee is my new favorite coffee and breakfast place in Lincoln! Omg. The coffee quality is…read moreso good. I immediately knew after taking my first sip. I told the barista how I like my coffee, which is strong, iced and sweet. I also told her I was debating between the dirty Barcelona and iced Cuban. She recommended the dirty Barcelona and it did not disappoint. However I will say it was a little too sweet for me. I'll have to try the iced Cuban next time. Nonetheless, the coffee was absolutely delicious. I finished it quickly. In addition to the amazing coffee here, I trulyenjoyed their food!! They specialize in crepes, savory and sweet, omelettes, and pancakes! Don't sleep on their food y'all. I ended up ordering a build -your-own meal which consisted of a bagel, eggs, cream cheese, and three sides; salsa, chipotle mayo and sausage. Let's just say I ate and left no crumbs. Everything was cooked and seasoned perfectly. Frfr. My toddler got the apple pie pastry, also a 10 out of 10!! There are board games and coloring pages for kiddos. Plus merchandise and coffee beans available for purchase. There's lots of seating inside and street parking outside. I'm definitely coming back here with more people and plan to spread the word about this amazing spot. 1000 out of 10 recommend. :)

I'd get it again. They sell merchandise, there's plants, lots of seating, a friendly staff and even better coffee! So much space to work and study, lounge corners with couches, etc. I'd rate this in my top 5 coffee spots in Lincoln, NE.

Cute interior with great coffee! We were a bit disappointed by the food options - the avocado bagel…read morewas good and had freshly sliced avocado, but if you want anything with eggs on it, all of their options are highly processed, microwaved eggs with plastic-like cheese. Everything comes pre-made, so we couldn't get the breakfast burrito, since we are vegetarians and the sausage couldn't be removed. It's a lovely spot so I really hope management can make some necessary upgrades to the breakfast menu - we would certainly have paid more for higher quality food.

The drive through was busy so I decided to checkout the interior and it was very zen with lots of windows. The guys working were friendly and took turns helping customers. Since I hadn't been I told the barista and asked what are the popular coffee drinks. He recommended the Fireside which was like a white mocha with marshmallow, whole milk plus whipped cream...very sweet but delicious! Definitely something new and would order on occasion. I'd like to try the caramel macchiato next time! Certainly would recommend. :D

First time trying Rock and Joe. I've driven by it several times and finally made plans to actually…read morecheck it out. Overall, I'll be honest, I was a little disappointed. I did look at the coffee menu online ahead of time but it was not fully updated, so I wasn't sure what to expect. I went through the drive-through and opted for an iced honey latte with oat milk. I ordered a medium and it was $8.20. Even with oat milk, $8+ seems fairly steep. For example, my recent obsession is with 7Brew where I can get a medium that has more ounces, more caffeine and a dollar less than here. The espresso quality was fine. I did appreciate that the honey flavoring seemed to be homemade rather than a premade syrup. However, the actual quality of the cup was very thin and flimsy. You'll notice in the picture I was holding it from the top because holding it like normal I was worried it was concave. With the average espresso, and very thin drinkware I'm not sure if I could justify the price. Not to say, I would never come back, I would like to try a hot espresso drink, but I am in no means rushing to go back.

I had and blueberry muffin that was out of this world and it was so moist and tasty. I wished I had bought more than one because I don't live in Lincoln and it was a stop on the Nebraska passport. The two girls that waited on me were adorable and very friendly. I got a lavender mint lemonade, which didn't really thrill me after I tasted it, but it tasted just like lavender so I got what I paid for. There's also a little cove of seating for books that looked very comfy and cozy. I would highly recommend this place.

Regular street parking in downtown Lincoln…read more They have pastries and stuff. This visit- we came approximately 15 minutes to closing. They politely informed us that they were closing in 15 minutes. It's like a speakeasy in the basement. Really cool! A cafe equivalent of one. They do have wine and beers too. And snacks, pastries too. I will definitely come back. I love the coziness of this place. There are some lounge chairs and a couch available. I got me an iced Chai. It's nice n sweet with a strong cinnamon taste They sometimes have live music too. How cool is this!! Point to note: summer vacation = summer hours. They close at 4 pm in summer as they are usually run by students and have primarily a student clientele. I do believe they are lgbtq+ friendly. I saw the little rainbow stickers. Love it!
