I made a reservation ahead of time with a friend so we could enjoy the flights together and give their team a heads-up.

I also love that they've expanded their space recently since it can get pretty busy. Another great experience here!

I recently visited Zen Coffee Company for the first time. Since I've been avoiding caffeine lately,…read moreI was hoping for a good selection of herbal teas. They only offered one herbal option (lavender mint) but unfortunately I could only taste the mint and didn't notice any lavender. They did have other caffeine-free drinks available, but I was looking for something unsweetened and low in sugar. The space was also different than I expected. Based on the name, I imagined a cozy, relaxing atmosphere with comfortable lounge seating. Instead, the décor felt a bit mismatched, almost like the café had expanded over time and the two sides were decorated very differently. That said, one thing they absolutely got right was the amount of seating. There were plenty of tables and space to work, study, or catch up with a friend without feeling crowded. The biggest downside was the cleanliness. The bathroom didn't feel clean, there were stains on the floors, chipped paint and damaged walls, crumbs around the couches and on some of the chairs, and the dish return bins were noticeably dirty inside. I stayed for about 90 minutes, and during that time I didn't see any cleaning happening, even though there were several areas that clearly needed attention. None of these issues alone would have been a dealbreaker, but together they made the café feel neglected and took away from what otherwise could have been a much more enjoyable experience.

The thing about the bubble tea fad is that everyone is trying to get in on it, and maybe in CB you can get away with it being very average...

That area of Omaha is blessed with some good Java shops with good vibes. Perfect for a thriving midtown area.

The service is quick and efficient and the coffee was wonderful. I got a caramel latte with oat milk and my partner got an Arnold Palmer.

The exterior is adorable, and inside it's bright, cozy, and thoughtfully styled warm lighting, clean design, and the kind of vibe that makes you want to sit and stay awhile. I ordered a Large Blueberry Coffee Cake Latte (iced) with brown sugar and cinnamon cold foam, and it was SO good. Perfectly balanced not overly sweet, super smooth espresso, and that cold foam on top just made it next level. You can tell they care about quality. I also grabbed a pastry (the cinnamon coffee cake muffin was incredible) fresh, moist, and the perfect pairing with coffee. I recommend getting it warmed up. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and everything felt intentional and well-run. It's such a gem for Bennington whether you're grabbing a quick drink or meeting a friend for coffee. Already looking forward to my next visit

The branding and overall vibe feel intentional, and I genuinely appreciate their mission and what they're trying to build in Omaha. That part really stands out. That said, the coffee itself didn't quite hit for me. I ordered a seasonal latte and was excited for something distinctive, but the flavor felt pretty muted. It tasted more like a standard latte than something seasonal or layered. Not bad by any means -- just not memorable. I'd still come back to try something else because the space and concept are strong. I just hope the drinks lean a little more bold next time.

Whatever they are doing in this department is fantastic work. Americano was just maybe better than average. Service was not at all welcoming. As a 22 year hospitality veteran I'm accustomed to actually working for tips and at least smiling and greeting guests. That's why it's called hospitality and not service. If I ever came back, it would be for the cold brew and not for anything resembling a memorable experience, sadly.
