    Iced Vanilla Latte
    Rosa O.

    Tucked inside 7th Street Market, Not Just Coffee is a hidden gem--but at this point, I'm probably not hiding since I go at least once a week. My go-to? An iced vanilla latte, and it's perfect every single time. If you're in the area, do yourself a favor and stop by. Just don't take my spot in line!

    Matcha deliciousness for a Monday morning meeting!

    Not Just Coffee is always a good choice! I got to try their matcha for the first time and it was pretty good. I did add oat milk and vanilla which was perfection. I love that the market validates parking in the attached garage, makes it so much easier to go and enjoy the businesses inside. I love that Not Just Coffee is inside the market, along with Resident Culture. So you can get a coffee and later on a beer lol. Great service, great spot inside the market!!

    Cortado

    I visit this location in the 7th street market usually on the weekends. I only order the cortado so I can't comment on the other drinks. I am not a coffee drinker but love a good cortado. The make a decent one and being that it's an easy 5 minutes walk from condo makes it a no browner. The staff is always so friendly which is a plus. Maybe once I will try something else

    I ordered the summer special- The Dolly, which consists of blueberry vanilla syrup, espresso, and milk. At the suggestion of the person ringing me up I only got half the amount of syrup; great recommendation. It was perfect- not too sweet and still coffee forward. Note- they only offer one size here! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Definitely seemed like a spot for coffee connoisseurs as there were so many people at the bar enjoying small cups of standard coffee vs the latte option I had ordered.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Great coffee in a good location right off the rail trail. Service is always quick and great!

    I was in the mood for some tea, and decided to try this spot out. This coffee shop is perfect for those who enjoy coffee, but there is also such a wide variety of tea options as well, so it was hard to choose from! The barista was friendly and I was so impressed with the quality of tea leaves and care they took into making the drinks. They used high quality loose leaf tea and steeped it with a timer to make sure that the drink comes out good since certain teas require different steeping times! I ordered the iced dehong snow phoenix with sweetener which had a rich, nutty aroma complemented by delicate floral notes. Make sure to check this spot out if you're looking for high quality drinks at a decent price!

    I know my coffee taste and this coffee was quite good. Cappuccino was not too dark and had a beautiful leaf on it. They have 2hr free parking validation.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]What a cool place![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]There were all kinds of good seating options in a big, open room.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The servers got to me quickly even though there was a long line and were pleasant. The guest wifi was easy to access, too, which was helpful. My son and I got a coffee, a hot chocolate, and a pastry - which were all good. I will gladly visit again when I'm in the area waiting on a delayed flight!

    Stopped here while in the area in the morning for a quick drink. Ordered an iced Matcha Latte and boy was it GOOD! They had just opened in the morning, so it was pretty quiet in the 7th St Market. Of course, I'm the market, there are tables/chairs throughout for seating. The booth/location is very cool and trendy. Counter space available for patrons to sit, drink and work as well. There were a handful of folks working there. The staff was super friendly and helpful with taking orders and making the drinks. I would definitely come back to hang out and maybe even work a little one day. Give them a try if you're ever in Uptown!

    Located in the 7th St Market is Not Just Coffee! It's an open market so there are about ten or so vendors inside which is nice if you want many options from coffee to breakfast to dessert. Not Just Coffee is a craft coffee shop doing the classic coffee drinks in a simple and minimalist way. I got a cappuccino and my friend got a hot tea. Both were delicious and perfectly made with lots of flavor and the balance of milk to espresso was spot on.

    Amazing coffee, great service. We asked for a long press (lungo) and despite not knowing what it was they served us one of the best we've had (after learning how to do it)

I have also tasted their iced white mocha latte and it was very sweet for a "regular"sweetened drink. Any time you place an order, you can customize your beverage sweetness.

I had recently tried this drink at another Haraz location and loved it so much that I officially considered myself a matcha drinker. When I received my drink, I noticed it looked much pinker than it had at the other locations I'd visited. I assumed it had just been mixed and that the usual layers of matcha, strawberry, and whipped cloud had blended together, so I didn't think much of it. However, after taking my first sip in the car, it immediately tasted like strawberry milk. Since I was on my way to work, I kept drinking it, expecting the matcha flavor to come through, but it never did. It was disappointing because the drink was nothing like the one I've had several times at other Haraz locations. I hope this location places an emphasis on training and consistency so the drinks meet the same standard as the rest of the Haraz locations. On a positive note, the staff members were kind, welcoming, and greeted me as soon as I walked in.

I read through some of the other reviews and I want to set the record straight. Yes, it's inside a church but there is a separate entrance. Yes, there are Christian books but also other genres. Yes, the coffee is very affordable BECAUSE all the staff are volunteers. No one is getting paid and they LOVE what they do. All smiles and great service. The proceeds go to local and global missions of the church. Win, win all the way around. The place itself is very spacious. Two levels. The seating areas are comfortable and far enough apart you can have some semiprivacy if you need it. My friend who brought me says she comes here all the time to study (she's in college). All of the staff knew her by name. (love places like that) I'm not a coffee drinker so I can't really speak to the coffee (although my friend says it's pretty good). I am a tea drinker though and they have a variety of flavors, some refresher juice drinks, a few pastries. Please support. Every now and again if you're thinking of getting coffee or a pastry, choose them. Why not? Do some good for the community through others who are committed to giving back.

Good amount of seating inside (mostly 2-seaters; one larger table reserved for bigger groups). Helpful and friendly staff who were amazing with my little one. You have to try a slice of the basque cheesecake. The plain slice (with no whipped cream or fruit topping) is not overly sweet and the perfect amount of "burnt" & creamy. We also tried the madeleines, which - as the café's name suggests - were on point. And the garlic bagel is a garlic + cream cheese lover's dream. The iced dalgona latte was such a treat. Sweet with a creamy foam and topped with crunchy cookies - very well balanced and delightful to drink. The prices reflect the care and high quality of the products. Come support this amazing local spot and enjoy their unique, thoughtful offerings!

Plus, the barista was patient with us and did a great job making our drinks.

We also met the owner and she was so personable! I'll definitely be back, just have to figure out where to park lol.

There was a small sign for the summer latte options, but not an overall sign with the general menu - which is kind of odd. So I had to "create my own" drink. 2.5 for the ambiance, which was a bit weird too, and kind of all over the place. You can't really tell what vibe they're going for. Boxes piled up everywhere, a random balloon arch. A merch table ? The waiting line also goes right through the middle of the seating area. So I kept getting bumped into and having to move back to make way for walking people. Very clunky. 1.0 The last thing I'll note, which isn't an overall ding towards them, but it added to the experience...I was waiting behind 1 single girl, and when she was next - FIVE other people came up to join her. Ordering one by one. And then a group of 6 other people tried to join in, but then somehow ended up behind me. The line was already 10 people deep. I'm not sure how anyone let this happen....

They have ample space to handle the crowd and it's well staffed with people constantly walking around helping and answering questions. Service is fast and everyone is so nice.

I've been for morning coffee when it's not as busy and late at night weekends during it's busiest times. Finding a parking space is challenging, especially on weekends. But once you step inside Vavela's you forget all about that because the vibe catches you instantly. The music, upbeat yet relaxing, transports you to another place and time. As soon as the doors open it's impressive! Seating is welcoming and abundant, be it at a table, on sofas or a grouping of comfortable chairs. When you walk up to the counter to order they have all of their drinks and deserts chilling and on display. And there are a lot of them! I don't know if they are made from scratch or premade, but I've had about 6 different kinds and each one was better than the next. All delicious! On my last visit we got our coffees, shared chicken flatbread, a tomatoe/cheese appetizer and sweet potato cheesecake and EVERYTHING was delicious!!!! They always have a lot of servers and they bring your order to your table. Because it stays busy I notice they have to constantly be on top of cleaning the tables and floors and often people will grab a seat before the staff has a chance to clean the area. But they overall do a good job staying on top of it. I highly recommend Vavela for a group meeting, or if alone, bring your laptop, your studies and get some work done while grabbing a bite to eat...and a Latte.
