    Ambiance: It is a very neighborhood coffee shop vibe. There is such cute decor inside but very minimal seating. I feel like the majority of people stand around or take it to go. The staff is not really friendly but the vibes were still peaceful. Mushroom grilled cheese: This was so yummmy!! The bread comes perfectly crispy and buttery. There were tons of mushrooms and creamy flavor. By far one of the best grilled cheeses I ever had. Banana horchata matcha: This drink was very sweet and good for people that dont like bitter drinks. I loved the banana flavor and it reminded me of banana bread. There was also a lot of cinnamon in the drink which made it so tasty.

    I stopped by Cafe Duro to try their banana horchata matcha but they were out of it today. The two people behind the counter were nice and helpful. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I like the vibe of this place, it is more of a casual place to stand and drink coffee or wine.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]There is no seating in the cafe, but there are some standing tables.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I ended up getting a vanilla oat milk matcha latte and one of their italian sausage kolaches which were both great. The matcha was smooth and did not have any clumps which is always a great sign. The kolache was served hot and was nice and flaky with its croissant crust. The parking situation here is that there are limited spaces behind the store. When I went (10am on a Tuesday) there were several spots open. They also have valet parking but I am not entirely sure of the details on that. Overall I enjoyed this place they have a pretty standard vanilla matcha latte. I will be back to try their specialty drinks!

    The drinks were so tasty! Highly recommend to anyone that's in Dallas. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Such a cute spot and nice area to roam around as well![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Parking is only by valet!

    To be completely honest, I heard the matcha at this spot was really good, so we decided to spend a morning bopping around lower Greenville. On our way in, I had a craving for an espresso tonic though, so that's what I ordered and it totally hit the spot. A good espresso tonic is the drink that really signals the start of summer for me and they executed it perfectly! I also really liked the banana horchata my cousin ordered. The staff were friendly and service was quick. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The actual bar is quite small, standing room mostly, but there's patio space if you plan on hanging out.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I will definitely have to go back to try the matcha! Highly recommend starting here if you plan on spending the morning strolling lower Greenville.

    Cafe Duro has a charming and beautifully designed interior. It gives off a trendy, cozy vibe. The staff are friendly and welcoming, which is always a plus. However, it's important to note that there's no traditional seating available--only a few standing tables. So if you are planning to stay and work or relax, this might not be the best spot. More of a grab-n-go kinda spot. Parking can also be a bit of a challenge. They do have a small lot tucked away in the back, but it's very limited and often full. I tried their Banana Horchata Matcha, and while the concept sounded unique and intriguing, the execution left a little to be desired. The drink was visually appealing with its vibrant green color, but flavor-wise, it leaned heavily on the banana horchata side. I couldn't detect any matcha flavor at all--it felt more like a banana milk with a splash of horchata, dyed green. Not bad, but honestly, I couldn't taste any matcha at all. If you're expecting that earthy matcha flavor, you'll probably be a little disappointed. Overall, it's a nice spot with good vibes.

    Espresso is dark and bitter, Italian-style. Drip coffee is delicious. Banana horchata matcha also yummy, not overly sweet.

    There's a lot to like about Cafe Duro. It has a cute ambiance, and the drip coffee was quite good. Service was relatively quick (although a long line grew after we arrived). The parfait and the banana horchata matcha were both quite sweet, no surprise. The matcha wasn't as sweet as it could have been (a good thing in my book), and the flavor was really nice. I'd get it again if I was in the neighborhood, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it. They were out of the McDuro breakfast sandwich and a couple other food items by the time we got there around 1 pm on a Sunday. So, that was a bummer. The mushroom grilled cheese was pretty delicious, though. Limited seating is one of the big drawbacks here, but that also might be a good thing, because the #1 reason I'm giving 3 stars is that when we left, after sitting on stools by the window far away from the kitchen (where we moved immediately after I took this photo) for about 30-45 minutes, our hair and clothes REEKED of cooking oil. I mean, it was so off-putting that we had to go home and immediately throw everything we were wearing in the laundry. So...yeah...I guess maybe grab-and-go is the move here, unless they can get their ventilation fixed.

    Cafe Duro has excellent coffee and food! My friend took us here and it did not disappoint. The line does get a bit long on a Saturday morning, but it goes by quickly and we waited about 10 minutes for everything to come out. We ordered the cortado, spice latte, and banana horchata, chicken panini, raspberry lemon bar, and breakfast pizzeta. The pizzeta was my favorite as it was light, fluffy, and full of flavor. Everything was high quality and on point. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The coffee shop is a bit small, but they have more seating at their sister shop next door.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Café Duro is a wonderful little coffee shop in a neighborhood in Dallas. It is a very popular spot in a local neighborhood on the weekends. They have great homemade drinks and they also a couple of food items on their menu. The menu is fairly small but everything was really delicious. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The inside is fairly small and they only have a couple of tables but they do have an outdoor patio.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] If you are looking for a great local spot with delicious home made coffee drinks and food this is your spot.

    Banana horchata matcha
    Cat N.

    banana horchata matcha is bomb. I drink so much matcha that this is one of top ten in dfw. The only complaint I have is the parking. I dont want to valet my car for a drink. Please, getting rid of parking so you can valet is the equivalent of horrible tipping culture. just squeezing any dollar out of the customer as possible. Parking is already scarce around lower greenville.

    If you're in Dallas, this is a great spot to get some matcha. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibe is nice, and feels very nature esque.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It did take a while for us to get our drink but it's a matcha spot so I was expecting it tbh. I'm not a big matcha connoisseur but my gf is and she really enjoyed it, and so did I. We got the horchata banana matcha and the banana flavor had no artificial taste to it and was very pleasing to the tongue, however I wish the horchata flavor can in a little more through.

    Came here to try their matcha and it was good. I've had better matcha but I did like the banana horchata matcha. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very few seats, so had to take it to go but looks very cozy and inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    The ambience is beautiful. The Matcha is nice. I would give five stars if this place had seating.

    After trying the adjacent Sister restaurant, we had to try cafe duro. We got coffee as well as the McDuro sandwich and an italian panini. The panini was great but the McDuro was a real standout. It was a delicious take on McDonalds' famous McMuffin sandwiches with fresher, tastier ingredients. The coffee was also of high quality. My only complaint is that it took a while to get our food because it was so busy. I would recommend coming here.

    I have driven by this place no less than a thousand times and have lived in Dallas over the course…read moreof probably about 15 years. Ironically, I've actually never been inside. Until this past weekend. We went in for my partner's birthday, and I'm sure glad we did. They normally don't like rich desserts or cakes, but they love pretty nice, high end dark chocolates. Chocolate Secrets did not disappoint. We arrived with our family, including two little ones in tow. They actually treated our kids with such love and care. It was slightly understaffed, but even then the service was excellent. We ended up taking a box of nine chocolates to go. Pro tip: they also host jazz nights on most nights. It also seems like a really cool spot for hosting events. My favorite so far was the Yes Yes Yes Truffle. It has milk chocolate, dark chocolate, and white chocolate. All in all, a Dallas institution that I'm so glad I went to.

    I've heard such great things about Chocolate Secrets and they did not disappoint! I came in to try…read moresome chocolate, but stayed for the live music. The band was great and provided a nice vibe for the night. I loved all of the bon bons I chose for a 9 pack. Here is my list from absolute fave to amazing: -Sea Salt Caramel -espresso Cafe -Brown Butter Caramel -Black Panther -Sunflower seed
