    Iced vanilla latte with oat milk
    Cammi P.

    I've never met a coffee shop I didn't like and Good Neighbor was no different!!! Offering coffee, food, and unique and healthy food finds, there's truly something for everyone. My latte was smooth and had the perfect balance of milk, vanilla and sweetness flavor. The shop is very aesthetically pleasing and the food smelled absolutely divine. I can't wait to try something from the menu soon. Parking can be tricky, but I was able to get a spot in a 10 minute loading zone right down the street. I also noticed they have two fifteen-minute spots you can pull into right next to the shop. The outdoor seating looked so cute and would be perfect for a nice, warm sunny day. Service was good and my coffee only took a couple minutes to make. It was an expensive latte but it was delicious and worth every sip! Can't wait to become a regular here.

    Excellent coffee and excellent food, you can truly taste the quality in both. The atmosphere is beautiful, with plenty of space to sit, work, or catch up with a friend. The outdoor garden patio is especially charming and a lovely spot to relax. Wouldn't recommend the matcha however it was very mild and tasted like mostly milk. I stayed in the guesthouse for the weekend and visited the café several times during my stay. Unfortunately, I didn't feel particularly welcomed during any of my visits. Each time, a different cashier seemed disengaged and didn't offer a greeting, only just a blank stare until I placed my order. It stood out even more as I watched how warmly they interacted with regulars. Otherwise still a great place to visit. Hopefully my next visit will feel more warm.

    good neighbor is a cute little modern coffee shop that tries to go for a feel of 'stepping into a loved one's home' - I tried the Strawberry Fields, which was a matcha with strawberry syrup - this was actually pretty tasty, but I wished it came out piping hot, as requested - it was more lukewarm, which was pretty disappointing. I like the cup that they use, in which they fill it up to the brim. Seating is limited, and if you're unable to get one of those armchairs, the wooden benches and the small tables are a bit uncomfortable. Street parking is available. +lukewarm drinks +limited seating +street parking available

    Oh wow, good neighbor was like a warm hug on this cold, rainy December day! I cannot believe I have never been here before. The greenery and the decor was so comforting. It was definitely busy on a Tuesday afternoon but we snagged a corner bench by the window and thanked the coffeeshop gods!!! I loved the Asian and Desi inspired flavors. The rose and cardamom latte was excellent. The chai latte was also divine! The chili paneer sandwich was the perfect spice and comfort food for a rainy day. The veggie sando was great too! It's also so rare to find veggie onigiri - loved the mushroom one!! Overall, one of my new fave spots in Bmore!!!!

    The outside of the cafe

    I like my coffee without a side of gentrification, thanks. I got a cardamom rose latte, which was absolutely delicious. I'm a fan of a pretentious coffee shop, but this was a bit too pretentious even for me. Even so, it would be 5 stars if it were not obviously gentrifying a neighborhood. Opening a shop that charges $7 for a coffee next popping up in the middle of delapitated, obviously low-income neighborhoods is going to result in poorer people forced out of their homes.

    Unique, creative, and vibrant cafe with a great outdoor atmosphere and drinks! The overall vibes and ambience were amazing- the outdoor seating area is a must. It's such a quaint, peaceful escape. They have plenty of drink options. My friend got a chai latte while I got their Strawberry Fields Matcha. The Matcha was incredible and delicious; my friend was happy with their chai. We'd come again for the vibes and drinks, but not the food. The food took a long time to come. We were both disappointed with the food- I got the Chili Paneer sandwich which honestly tasted like cheesy burrata garlic bread. Paneer shouldn't be like burrata! I tasted no spices and it was very bland- the "green chutney" wasn't chutney at all and it was not good or flavorful. I really expected an Indian twist, which it wasn't. My friend didn't like the beet salad since it was all just raw veggies with no texture, cooked veggies, or flavor added. While our food expectations weren't met, this still is a must check out place to grab drinks and enjoy the scenery.

    omg HOW have I never been here before?? Good Neighbor is located in Hampden with free street parking nearby that can be hit or miss, especially on weekends, so be prepared to walk over a couple of blocks. GN has indoor and outdoor seating and is a gorgeously decorated coffee shop / cafe / eatery. They sell books, records, cookware, and other miscellaneous trinkets in their shop as well. They have two restrooms which are stocked with free pads and tampons which I think is so kind of the business to offer! For alternative milks; they only have coconut and oat. I have to note that they have excellent customer service. I came in on around lunchtime on a Tuesday with a friend and they were already moderately popular. They answered some questions I had about their food and when they accidentally got my drink order wrong, they spotted the error before me and not only made me the drink I ordered, but also offered me the incorrect drink to keep as well. Hojicha latte with whole milk (iced) 4/5, ok so the issue here is while this was a good nicely roasted tasting hojicha, I had never tried hojicha iced before so while I do definitely recommend this, I say order this hot Iced Latte 3/5, I did not order this but it was given to me to keep as it was accidentally made. I'm not a coffee drinker but this tasted like an average iced coffee to me, if that's your thing, you can't go wrong with this Matcha latte with whole milk (iced) 4.5/5, I got this unsweetened as I wanted to try how bitter their matcha would be but this was a very pleasant surprise! I quite enjoyed this drink and the ratio of matcha:milk present Espresso Soda 3/5, my friend got this and noted that she didn't like the citrus lavender flavoring from soda and would have preferred a different blend with the espresso Spicy Salmon Onigiri 5/5, this onigiri came PACKED w/ fish and the spicy mayo was beautiful done Chili Paneer 5/5, what a sandwich! This was very filling and the chili was not overdone at all and paired well with the burrata that was melted in a way that allowed the cheese to stretch out nicely as you bite in

    Matcha lattes

    Ambiance is amazing, beautiful collection of art work, books, decor and furniture. The outdoor space was beautiful, perfect for reading or studying. We got the spicy mayo salmon ongiri and the miso mushroom ongirir, both were delicious! I need to go back to try more food. We also got ice matcha lattes, one with vanilla and one without. With vanilla was better than without. The one without vanilla was not sweet at all. Both a little milky, not very green for being ceremonial grade though.

    pros: ambience is super nice to study and talk, and the onigiri was so good. cons: theres not a ton of parking space and my matcha latte tasted pretty watered down. overall a cute spot to sit and work

    Fantastic spot for breakfast or coffee. Lots of unique coffee/espresso beverages, clearly made with care. Latte was perfectly creamy, with just the right amount of sweetness. Both sandwiches we ordered (bacon, egg, and cheese, and chili paneer) were bursting with flavor. The space is very aesthetic (don't forget to grab some photos for Yelp or Instagram ) and they have lots of cute items for sale too. Staff are so kind and helpful; they answered a ton of my questions about the menu.

    Home of one of my absolute favorite breakfast sandwiches in town, the egg & cheese. They use high-quality sourdough, and the sauce on the sandwich makes it a unique offering. Recommend getting either their creative, seasonal latte (my favorite so far was the carrot spice) or a drip coffee. If you get drip, then you get one free refill, which is nice. Had the PB&J toast once (pictured here), which was tasty, though I prefer the egg & cheese. Staff are friendly and their musical selections are always top notch.

    Pros: chic, hipster decor and amazing coffee Cons: music can be very loud and seats are hard/uncomfortable I really love good neighbor and I have been here more than 5 times. It's a semi-regular study spot for me! The decor is very chic and has a home-y vibe. Modern and inviting. Their coffee is AMAZING. Genuinely some of the best I've had in the city. I'm not a coffee purist, so I usually order lattes or specialty drinks. Their seasonal drinks are also cool; in the summer they often have refreshing matcha drinks and herbal/floral blends. The food is good (but a bit pricey). I love the curry chicken sando! Very flavorful and healthy. Some of the options are definitely overpriced; I got a harvest bowl once which was just yogurt, fruit, and oats. The staff are very personable and fun! Street parking nearby is easy too. My biggest con is that the music can be very loud. It varies based on the day, but sometimes they're *blasting* hip-hop and rap (which are genres I enjoy!! But not at full volume in a coffee shop!). The seats are also pretty uncomfortable. I believe there is only one big table that has seats with cushion. All the other chairs are hard wood. I'm normally ok with this set-up at coffee shops, but for some reason good neighbor chairs are extra uncomfortable. Overall, I do really like this place! Especially for shorter, casual meet-ups with friends. I would not make this your regular study spot unless you plan on bringing a very good noise-cancelling headphone or a seat cushion!

    This is a nice, small coffee shop located in the Hampden area. I got a yummy ice coffee that was quickly made, the staff were kind and welcoming. The service was smooth, but the seating was limited, or not very supportive in style of seating. Nonetheless, it seems like a nice spot to do a coffee chat, work remotely, or enjoy artisan coffee.

    Best cortado in Baltimore so far. The roast wasn't dark, the steaming was ok, the latte art pretty good. I'll definitely be back.

I'm a big fan of cinnamon raisin pretzels and was happy to see that theirs didn't come with extra cinnamon sugar on top. They do offer a separate cinnamon sugar pretzel for those who prefer that. The glaze on the cinnamon raisin pretzel was perfect for me. My husband tried the pecan caramel pretzel as well as an original, with a large orangeade. What I appreciated most about the cinnamon raisin pretzel was its freshness and the fact that it wasn't overly sweet. The original pretzel had just the right amount of salt, which was great. We didn't care for the pecan caramel pretzel much. The pecans were a bit too toasted and it lacked caramel. The orangeade was delicious! I'll definitely be returning because the service was great and the quality of the pretzels really stands out. The all-beef pretzel dog is next on my list!

My first visit went smoothly, and the pizza was fairly good. However, I did notice that the customer service could be improved. A more welcoming atmosphere with employees smiling and making eye contact would make a big difference in the overall experience. I decided to give the place another chance and went back for a second visit. This time, I ordered two slices of their bread pizza, and unfortunately one of them had a hair in it. I politely went to the front desk and informed the employee. At first, he seemed to brush it off or not fully acknowledge it, and I had to physically take the hair out to show him so he could see it. He did offer to replace the slice, which I appreciated and accepted, but there was no apology or kindness in the interaction. Situations like that can happen anywhere, but the way they are handled really matters.
