Do not get beans here. Do not let them grind them. I like to support local shops when I am…read moretraveling and I have my own espresso maker. I asked for espresso grind. When I opened the bag I could tell right away it was too fine. I attempted to pull a shot, but got nothing. It was most definitely Turkish grind. Since I could do nothing with the bag, I went back to explain this was ground too fine. The same individual was there and reacted with condensation, saying this is indeed espresso grind, which is basically Turkish, and he doesn't know what kind of maker I have so he cannot dial it in. I said I have never had this problem in the years I have done this at other shops. He acted like he could do nothing for me, so when I pressed that I can do nothing with these beans I spent money on, he got on the phone. At one point I heard him say, "Yes, I tried to explain that to her." As if I didn't know what I was talking about. I was finally given the option to get a bag of beans without having them ground, which is all I really wanted. I can grind the beans in my own grinder at home. I went down the street and bought a bag of beans there. I asked for espresso grind and mentioned that the last place gave me Turkish. She had to look up the appropriate setting, but she got it perfect. When I got home and opened the bag of beans from Black Iron, the beans were oily and smelled burnt. My coffee tasted that way, too. I was rather shocked because the latter I had ordered with my purchase was not bad. I had to use them up slowly by masking the bad taste with my go-to beans.

They have since changed owners since I last visited, and had the opportunity to meet the new owners daughter who was working on bar that day. She is so friendly and makes a great macchiato! I used to be a barista for a few years and have since become an at home espresso enthusiast. This cafe produces delicious, quality espresso made with care. Quiet, clean, and cozy.

The pistachio latte is one of the best anywhere. They serve it hot or cold and the service is fantastic. They have a nice seating area, including a few couches around a fireplace. It wasn't super busy but it appeared to be frequently by lots of regulars who had the menu memorized. About half of the orders were pick ups and the rest were people who decided to stay in the café and enjoy the music. I'm definitely returning to this one! Places like Starbucks, Biggby and Tim Hortons pale in comparison to these new breed of Yemeni coffee shops popping up everywhere. I guess they deserve it since coffee was basically invented in Yemen and then shared with the world.

Sandwiches (gluten free bread), soup (gluten free options), coffee, cocktails, and ice cream! Something for every time of the day. Order at the front and they will bring it to your table. This method was a tad disorganized and you could tell the 2 gals working were either a bit overwhelmed or unsure who was coming or going. I suggest giving your guests a number on a little stand for their table after ordering. That'll keep you from hollering out their name and walking around the establishment trying to find them. Nonetheless, the food tasted great! Parking: street parking out front and on the side but there's a free lot on the northeast side of the area. Attire: casual. Great place for kids & dogs on patio

If you are a fan of tiramisu latte, this is the only place to get it. We tried the pistachio matcha cloud latte (with a shot of espresso) over the weekend and a couple pastries- ham and cheese crossiant and ham and cheese toast that's topped with corn cheese. I absolutely LOVE the h&c crossiant. They do add an aioli that might throw some people off, so beware if you are not a fan of mayo or spice. Since opening, service has always been friendly and much quicker. And I love that they changed up the seating areas- they added cushioned seating along the back windows. This is a great place to come for a quick bite, meet up with friends, or even while you're waiting to rotate your tires. A huge plus is, they are open 365 days a year!
