    I just moved out of Louisville, and I'm SO BUMMED I didn't find this place sooner. It's pretty much a perfect coffee shop. Super cozy, quaint yet classy, clean, insane amount of adorable seating, excellent strong bold coffee and gluten-free pastries. I got my typical Cortado, and it was perfect: creamy, strong rich flavor and very a generous portion, almost more like a flat white but I'm not complaining. While I ordered the Coffee to stay, I got the gluten-free peanut butter chocolate scone to go. BUT it was so warm and delicious that one little "taste" turned into me scarfing the entire thing before I left. The barista was super nice and apologized that she couldn't give me the little cookie that they typically serve with the coffee since it was glutenous. They also have a case of fresh sandwiches and other food if you're needing something a little heartier. Dang, I would've been here all the time if I'd discovered it while I was still a full-time resident. But I will absolutely return any time I'm visiting.

    I have passed by Fante's Coffee so many times and had a coffee date to finally make me go. I could kick myself now because it is amazing!!!! Seriously why do I do that? SMH.... This coffee shop is so stinking cute. They have coffees, smoothies, scrumptious looking baked goods and so much more. The baristas were so friendly and the vibe was just spot on for me. They had the best decor. You could tell they take pride in their coffee roasting. The place smelled amazing before you even walked in the door. I did purchase some Mexican coffee beans and the barista was so sweet asking me if I needed any information about the different kinds of bean. If it hadn't been closing time, I probably would've. I hated to keep them any longer than we already had. I got a vanilla latte and my friend got a smoothie with whipped cream. My vanilla latte was amazing. And I will admit I did have to open up my bag of coffee beans and grind a cup up and it was so so delicious. So the moral of the story is people don't pass by this place stop walk and get a phenomenal coffee and whatever you want and I promise you, you will not be disappointed. Don't let this place pass you by like I did.

    Fante's is great for both coffee traditionalists and adventurers. Their seasonal drinks and fun and creative and I'm still upset I missed out on their fall sweet potato flavor. If flavored lattes aren't your thing, I think they also have one of the best espressos in the city, and you can't go wrong with a plain cappuccino, latte etc. Lots of indoor seating, a great place to sit and study or chat with friends. Also a beautiful back patio in the warmer months. Lots of parking available.

    Great coffee and snacks. I needed a strong pick me up coffee and they did not dissapoint.

    Fante's is up there with one of the better coffee shops in the city. Open until 8 pm, with great decor and ambience, this place is serving up quality iced drinks. The pastries were also solid and the service was very helpful. I will definitely be returning as it is a great spot to work or hang out.

    Went on a weekday around 830am and the place was packed. Lots of friend meet ups and business meetings. It was loud at times so if you are wanting a quiet spot, I would attempt another time. It thinned out some around 930/10am. Friendly barista. My drink was a little too sweet but would definitely go back to try others. Had a really good cheese danish. Nice little coffee shop.

    I'm a sucker for natural lighting and nitro cold brew. Thank you Mr. Fante. I look forward to trying a bagel or sandwich

    This was a lovely coffee shop, but it was a lot. I came to meet with a coworker to get some work done and it was quite distracting. The baristas were yelling and rushing you through the line and it was so crowded. At one point I was stuck in a corner with about a foot around myself blocked entirely in. Talk about claustrophobic. I ended up getting out of there and finding a better table but it was still crowded. And loud as can be. I ordered a latte at first and it was good. A little while later I ordered a bagel sandwich and woof. It showed up to my table completely cold. As in, cheese wasn't melted, eggs cold as can be. My friend took hers back and said it was better. Instead, I waited until we left to get more food elsewhere. Overall it was an okay experience. I'd give them an extra half of a star if I could. Hopefully it was just an off day. I think I would come back, just not to work or read a book.

    Fante's coffee is a local Lousiville coffee and brunch spot located off grinstead drive. I have an older daughter who loves to meet up with friends and do coffee, pastries and brunch with family friends a whole lot so we've visited Fantes a few times as it is one of our favorite spots. The location features a private parking lot which isn't always the case for Grinsted ave business's and the interior is deceptively large. The decor and setup here is very homey feeling and gives off comfort vibes. When you walk in you go a counter and place your order. If strictly coffee they will Male on the spot, if food they will give you a receipt and take your name and have a waitress come bring our to you. I'm not a huge pure coffee guy so I'll usually get the hot chocolate or seasonal chocolate specials. I love a good bagel breakfast sandwich and this business does offer breakfast bagel sandwich's which is my main reason to visit besides being the city tour guide for my daughter and her friends. Overall This a great local coffee shop with nice drink options, tasty pastries and good actual food options with the breakfast bagel sandwiches.

    Coffee is good but some staff treats every request like a chore. They don't follow their posted schedules for food service either.

    Days and days go by so stop in and have some coffee…read more This is a local coffee place. We happened to just stumble upon it. Truly from the outside it's one of those places just go inside. You will be surprised and impressed. They have a great little local here. It's got great charm and even better coffee. The inside seating allows for access on both sides of the coffees establishment. They have couches to lounge. Sit and sip that coffee a while. They have so many local options art and coffee mugs to purchase. They go to a great cause if you are looking for something unique. The coffee staff here are sensational at what they do. The coffee drink was outstanding. Come and sip and just enjoy the best things of life. Together, Pat and I do the coffee together. Sipping our caffeinated beverages and enjoying the new places we frequent together. Thank you for making our lives easier and enriched with the joys of your business .

    Day's is your quintessential neighborhood coffee spot. You know it's a good spot with good people…read morewhen you pass the same regulars every time you stop in. It's cozy with lots of seating - bar, loveseats, booths, and tables - with loootttss of outlets available for my fellow loves-to-work-from-coffee-shops folk. The menu is large and includes the basics along with a rotating seasonal menu. It's not the best espresso I've had, but it's still yummy and their latte art is some of the best in the city, it always does numbers on my Instagram stories.
