The layout is a bit of a maze and it's not super obvious where to go to order when you first walk in. And the staff wasn't super attentive. The coffee was okay. I ordered the Athena latte and my boyfriend ordered an iced americano. Neither one of us disliked our drinks but we weren't in any rush to go back for more. Athena Bean is a good coffee shop, but not necessarily one I would recommend as a local favorite.

The drinks are amazing. We've enjoyed everything we've tried! Highly recommend the Apollo for dirty chai lovers, the Cerberus if you like Arnold palmers or a lighter pick me up, and the Poseidon for something different (we like adding white chocolate to it) The service is usually pretty good, with some employees that stand out above the rest. Hard to beat Athena Beans Coffee House!

They also have a great selection of food items available if you're hungry. ​A huge highlight: my husband had the Vanilla Cinnamon Chai and said it was quite literally the best thing he's ever had. Whether you're looking for a unique caffeine fix or a peaceful spot to relax, this place is a must-visit!

On our way to the airport, we wanted to stop for some delicious coffee and a bite to eat to have a…read morelittle more time with family and didn't want the standard big chain coffee experience. There were not many options even open on a Sunday morning in the area of Day Break where we were located. We almost didn't even go in here because, from the street, this location looked closed. The crisp cold temps kept everyone indoors so I am really glad we double checked the front door, because we would have missed out on a hidden gem of a spot! We got there early enough that there was only one person working, which initially wasn't an issue, but as our visit went on, a line formed, and I even put back, on the shelf, an intended purchase of coffee beans because I wanted to visit more than I wanted to stand in a line. I ordered an iced Americano with sugar free Hazelnut and a splash of half and half to drink and a Pesto Grilled Cheese on Sourdough to eat. I knew it would be an easy food item to take any leftovers on the plane. Although the indoor space had enough seats for this particular morning visit, I am not sure how well it seats everyone on a typical morning rush. The outdoor space would be my preferred seating location but only when it is warmer temps so I definitely plan to come back and stay longer. The vibe is super chill, the flavor of the coffee was strong and rich, nothing bitter or burnt and we all found something we loved to both eat and drink. Dogs are definitely welcome too and I can see this coffee house becoming a neighborhood favorite very quickly! I wish I had stuck it out and waited in line as I'd love to make a batch of cold brew coffee from their beans now that I am back home in California! Maybe next time!

The lavender latte was perfect--just the right amount of syrup to make it floral and slightly sweet without tasting overly sugary or artificial. I also loved watching them hand-mix the matcha and seeing the little specks of real vanilla. You can tell they care about what they're making. The avocado toast was simple but so well done. Perfectly toasted bread with fresh, quality ingredients--sometimes simple really is best. The baristas were friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about what they do. The café itself is really nice inside, and I'm especially happy they're open on Sundays! Definitely a place I'll be coming back to.

They have Baby's Bagels here! We each go a bagel and I got an iced chai. The bagels were delicious, the chai was just okay.

The shop itself has a modern decor with a farmhouse elements but also plenty of natural light. The space feels very curated, and actually feels like a shop you'd want to spend time in. They offer a decent variety of pastries and the drinks are all pretty good. I think the coffee is good, and I would definitley recommend it on the list of SLC Coffee shops. On my last visit the service was only fine, but otherwise they are usually pretty good. The shop stays busy with an number of people on laptops throughout the day, and even though it's mainly street parking, you don't usually have to go far to find a spot.

I think their coffee is decent and they have a lot of options for flavored drinks. It's awesome that you can try a full flight with different flavors, but I'm not sure if the value is fantastic for the price, especially for 4 half sized drinks. I might just order 4 drinks and just bring an extra friend to help me finish them. The shop is clean with a fun design, it has a lot of natural elements with out feeling forced and an awesome mural on the wall. The staff is friendly and fast for sending out orders and happy to help with any questions that you have. They do utilize a kiosk or QR code for ordering, which takes some of the personality out of the transaction, but it goes smoothly over all and gives you extra time to choose. I would defintely come back. Lots of options and a fun environment. Great spot to meet up with friends, have a coffee and something to snack on.

A lot of choices for empanadas, sandwiches, coffees and teas. We ordered an Americano, breakfast empanada, alfajores, and the flight of coffee and teas. Everything came out fast! My favorite drinks of the flights were the dulce de leche latte (super creamy a with the oat milk) and the matcha latte. Highly recommended and can't wait to try more of their menu!
