The owner, Mike, is so friendly and kind. The drinks we got absolutely blew us away! My mom got the Toasted Marshmallow Cold Brew with Brown Sugar Cold Foam, my husband got a French Vanilla Cold Brew with 2 creams, and I got a Frozen Chocolate. I see why my family are regulars here and look forward to their Saturday mornings dates together there. We'll definitely be going anytime we come for a visit now. 10/10 recommend!

This is my experience as an AuDHD adult, male-presenting person…read more I went to Déjà Brew and was greeted with smiles. Three people were prepping early in the morning--maybe around 8:30 or 9:00. The whole place had a warm, easygoing vibe. I ordered a Soul Shine smoothie and a BLT for later, with romaine substituted and garlic & herb sourdough, a Texas-toast-style bread. They called it sourdough, and maybe it was--but just a heads-up, it's on the denser side. I liked it, though! The interaction was great. They answered all my questions, and when I asked if I needed to make a purchase to use the WiFi, they said no--it was freely given. That small kindness already made me feel welcome. I took my time sipping my smoothie while researching what's next. When I was ready for my sandwich a couple of hours later, I let them know, then stepped outside for some air while they made it. When I came back, I found they had brought it right to my spot. That small, thoughtful gesture really stuck with me. The sandwich looked fantastic, and to my surprise, it came with a few thick-cut pickle chips--definitely dill, and so good. The BLT itself? Also solid. Big slices of tomato (which, honestly, I don't usually go for, but it's a BLT, so I rolled with it). The mayo--or maybe aioli?--was incredible, the kind that makes your mouth water. The romaine was fresh and crisp, and the bacon was good--though I wouldn't have minded another slice or two. When they brought it over, they reminded me that chips were included. I checked out the options and saw some good flavors, but I was craving something a little more nutrient-dense. I asked if they offered fruit with the meal, and they kindly offered me a banana. It seemed like something they don't normally do, but they were happy to accommodate, which I really appreciated. The total came to $21.60 after taxes, and honestly? Worth it. I spent five hours here, enjoying the space, the welcoming atmosphere, and the heater they had running on this cold April day. The kindness, the food, and the comfort made it an easy place to settle in for a while. 10/10, would recommend to a friend.

We arrived at 1110am hoping to get some drinks and a small breakfast. The place was moderately…read morebusy. There's a drive thru and then a big seating area inside with the counter. Plenty of drink and food options available. We ordered 2 drinks off their specials board which were "dirty sodas", I opted for a nitro cold brew black. We ordered 1 egg and cheese wrap. It took 10 minutes for them to take our order upon arrival and then we didn't get any drinks or food until 1150. It seems they prioritize the drive thru and don't really have a system to make drinks or handle customers in an efficient manner. We ordered relatively basic drinks and waited over 25 minutes. The place does have a nice ambiance but the lengthy wait times for orders will prevent me from coming back.

We loved everything about walking into this place, but that's where it ended…read more We ordered croissants and someone not working the register went and grabbed the croissants we ordered for another customer who was on the phone. Rather than telling the person handling the phone order that the croissants were already ordered, the cashier just apologetically smiled. It's our first time here (we told the cashier that) and she tried to offer other options, but we weren't looking for cake first thing in the morning. What's weird is that the person handling the phone order was making drinks before and after so I'm not sure if this was an order for a friend or a legitimate customer. The whole thing was disappointing and soured our opinion and experience. Seven employees were working and it still took over 10 mins to get two lattes. When served, our drinks were not hot because the espresso shots had been sitting on the counter cooling off while the milk was steamed and the flavoring added. The interstellar had good flavor but was kid's temp by the time I got it. The honey saffron didn't taste like anything and was slightly warmer, but fell flat flavorwise. Overall, the experience didn't feel particularly high end as the prices would reflect, nor efficient. I'm not sure if I would return.

Kataifi is phyllo dough shredded into fine threads, resulting in a light and crispy texture that reminds you of toasted coconut but way better.

Visiting Shamballa Cafe today really makes me wonder: why do I even bother with chain coffee shops?…read more First and foremost: the coffee is awesome! I went with what was in the vat today: a medium roast that I believe was called blue moon. I forget the provenance of said roast (I remember it was South American), but my oh my was it good! Exactly what you want a medium roast to be: balanced, with notes of whatever chocolate or berries or leather is in there. I couldn't put the cup down! Whereas getting the sludge from the big chains down the gullet sometimes feels like a morning chore. Why is the coffee so good here? It turns out that the owner (a very friendly guy named Emmett) roasts it himself. He had several varieties on offer that were roasted within the last 24 hours, maybe even this morning. That particular minutiae is a blur as I wasn't caffeinated yet when we discussed this. But it's yet another huge benefit a local cafe provides: freshness! Another thing: Shamballa is a great restorer of faith in community and our fellow humans. Emmett and I discussed many things in my fairly brief time in his shop, but I'll never forget the empathy he displayed when discussing some current trials & tribulations. It turns out he's been down the same road, and his well-wishes and kindness made for an even finer accompaniment to the coffee than the coffee cake muffin pairing that was purchased on impulse. A double espresso was consumed on-site while 2 large coffees were taken to go. The espresso was awesome, 100x better than Sbux or Dunkin'. Total for 3 beverages? Less than $8! For later, I grabbed a 1/2 lb. of whole bean Guatemalan medium roast on Emmett's recommendation, and the coffee cake muffin was moist and delicious without being too crumbly or cloyingly saccharine. Drake's it was not! A ten spot covered the latter purchase. If I lived in Baldwinsville, I'd probably stop by here every morning! Except Sunday and Monday when they're closed. Be sure to arrive early, closing time is now noon. Please swing by Shamballa and see for yourself! Perhaps you too will ponder why we make grabbing coffee a chore, when it can be a true morning delight?

It has a reasonably sized parking lot which leads into an entry way full of plants before you enter into the cozy seating area and counter for ordering. They have a refridgerated section for baked goods, especially worth noting is their wide selection of keto cookies, cupcakes, and other "sweets" They have coffee and tea in a lot of different forms as well as lunch and breakfast sandwiches. I got the keto bagel which was good, but the egg was definitely overcooked to the point of being reminiscent of a hard boiled egg with a yolk that's gone green. Staff was friendly, service was fast, and overall I enjoyed my visit.

The salad was magnificent and beautifully arranged, and the soup was delicious. The atmosphere is really nice and in the warmer weather there are seats out in the back and on the front porch. The women running this establishment are lovely and aim to please. We ordered at the counter and they brought our food out all at the same time , no small feet since there were about 12 of us.
