    10/10 would definitely recommend the iced earl rose latte with oat milk again.
    Ashley B.

    I have been eyeballing this place for quite a while but just hadn't made it in until yesterday. And I'm sad that I waited so long. I thought this establishment was a lot smaller than it actually is and I regret not taking pictures like I normally do. There is a main area that has high top seating at the window and a couple tables, there is a small outdoor patio with several tables and chairs, as well as some umbrellas. There is also a dining style room that people can co-work in to the right of the main seating area. The ambience definitely gives trendy hipster vibes, while being very clean and unique. Normally, I do a bathroom check, but as I was here, meeting a friend, I did not do so, and will definitely pay attention next time. As for their drinks, they offer a variety of coffee drinks, as well as non-coffee drinks. They also have some food items both sweet and salty. They offer dairy free, vegan and I think gluten free alternatives for both food and drink. While I don't remember the exact prices of things, they were reasonable for the quality. I ended up getting an iced earl rose latte, and in all of my reviews of the coffee shops that I've been to around the world, I think that this has to be my favorite one. I ended up ordering two of them, one when I arrived, and one when I left because I wanted to take it home. I definitely will be back and I urge anybody who's looking for a unique spot to give this place a try. Stop here for coffee and work then head across the alley to Mead Krieger for a nice glass of mead in the evening and you got yourself a pretty good day.

    There are so many things to love about Dark Heart, it will be difficult to keep this brief. The DH Coffee Menu is the most epicurean coffee shop menu I have ever seen. Here's my favorite drink, the spectacular Smokey Mocha Latte verbatim from their menu... "Our Smokey Mocha is made from single origin Askinosie cocoa hand whisked with pure maple syrup, a dash of smoked paprika, and espresso then integrated into silky latte style milk and garnished with black sea salt! Like a salted 70% maple chocolate bar in a cup!" I drive 40 minutes round-trip, 2 times a week to get this drink, and I'd drive more if I had to. It's that good! My partner in love, life & crime, gets the Earl Rose Latte which is a fragrant combination of loose leaf earl grey tea, hibiscus simple syrup, and rose water with silky smooth latte style milk and garnished with fine hibiscus. It's delicious! There are a nice variety of these delectably mind-shattering drinks on the standard menu, plus a selection of seasonal drinks right on the metal post to the left of the digital register as you come up to order. They're sometimes easy to miss, so give them a glance before looking up at the big menu board. So the drinks are phenomenal... what about the vibe??? We know that many coffee shops are all about the space, the people, the baristas, etc., and maybe it's no surprise, but Dark Heart is basically the coolest, bad-ass little coffee shop in the entire Centennial state. Every detail of its interior is custom designed, hand-cut & bent metals abound & chic industrial surfacing are everywhere. Black & grey is the general design theme, only to be contrasted by the incredibly warm, friendly staff & owners. Food offerings are a bit limited to case selections, but I've got my super tasty favorites including: the breakfast burritos and mini quiches. If you like a place with lively music from their locally-made Heinsenfolg Bespoke Audio speaker, friendly cool people, and those heavenly drinks, then I'll see you every Friday & Sunday, and we can be regulars together! :-)

    Wonderful coffee with homemade nutmilk! Rich, frothy delicious. Also had a croissant which is splendid! Service was friendly and fast. Bathrooms- clean and spacious. It is a wonderful space with delicious coffee My only complaint is the onesie "customer" who are entitled to take an entire table (there are not many) get a cup of coffee, pull out their laptop and spend literally hours using free coffeehouse real estate and wifi to work. The public library is a mere block away. Maybe a sign hinting at the proximity of the public library is in order? Finished your coffee? We kindly request you relocate to allow other customers a place to eat. Unconscious entitled customers are annoying but besides that- it's fire!

    This coffee bar is a great place to spend some time by yourself or with company. I visited late morning on a Friday of a holiday weekend, and it was busy, but I still found seating outside. I only waited in line for a few minutes behind a couple of guests. The individual that took my order was friendly, and also able to answer my question about the in-house nut milk. Dark Heart makes their own cashew milk, with water, cashews, dates, and salt. Being a warmer day, I went with a cold, Grapefruit Ginger kombucha, which I enjoyed outside in the patio area. There was a variety of shaded and sunny seating available. I went on my own this time, but was happy to see that I could bring a "well-behaved, leashed dog" to the patio area in the future! To those that are sensitive to loud noises, I would recommend the outside area when weather permits as the music inside was a bit loud. Also, since the coffee bar isn't directly downtown, the traffic noise was okay for the most part, aside from a couple of delivery trucks that arrived during my time there. Restrooms are handicap accessible and gender neutral. There are lots of happy plants both inside and outside. There was also a mix of individuals, couples, friend groups, and families, with a variety of seating options to accommodate all. I even saw a larger study/conference area in the back. I'm looking forward to going back to try the house-made cashew milk, and also the mimosas which can be made with orange juice OR kombucha!

    House drip coffee and a macaroons
    Martina O.

    Went to this place last month, pretty lay back have plenty of coffee selection, mine was simple dark roast house drip. They offered free refills for it, got good selections of food as well, tried their macaroon; not a bad choice! This locations has WiFi and located at downtown Loveland and pretty popular spot. Just be mindful for the wait, it's worth it!

    So popular we had to wait for about 20 mins on a Sunday morning but it was worth it! Ordered the ham & cheese pastry as well as the chocolate croissant to go with our coffee- so yummy!

    Coffee shop

    Hands down, the best coffee shop in NoCo. If you brew a pour-over daily like I do, this is your spot. Their drip, Americano, and latte are all solid, consistently high quality. The service is always on point, too. And the shop itself? Absolutely killer. I'm actually trying to copy the design for my garage or basement. Add it all up, and you just can't beat Dark Heart.

    Ham and cheese croissant
    Kristi M.

    I haven't been here in years but I'm happy to report it's just as good as I remember! The staff was so incredibly friendly. We got two iced coffees with the 'not so basic' syrup which is so tasty. The ham and cheese croissant was delish! They offer assorted bonfire burritos which are great. The avocado toast was good but I think next time I'd ask for light balsamic on top. If you're in the area, this is worth the stop!

    A good spot to get some work done. The latte I got was thoughtful, with a nice flavor profile. The patio is awesome in the warmer months!

    Best coffee in northern Colorado? I think maybe. Always go here when I'm in the Loveland area. Homemade nut milk is bomb.

    When we are walking around old Loveland, this is a nice stop. A little off of the beaten path, but worth the extra steps.

The owner, Emily, was there working to keep everything running smoothly. The food was healthy and evidently is a great local favorite.
