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.

Astute is very truly a GEM among the Omaha coffee shop community…read more You can expect warm hospitality, bright and spacious seating areas, thoughtfully made pour overs and a fun seasonal menu. When I get the chance to sit somewhere for awhile, Astute is my first choice. It's generally quiet enough to read or study, and the pour over service is truly exceptional. The roasters they choose to work with are some of the best around. Astute's employees' commitment to serving their clients well and learning about the nuances of each coffee make for an excellent adventure each time. ++also, they carry Pettit's Pastries and you're gonna need to grab a donut while you're here. Best in town!++

With a featured drink like this, I'm bound to return for other seasons! The only reason I even tried this unique combo was the delightful barista who talked me thought the different seasonal offerings. She was friendly and fast paced! The environment was filled with windows and some small plants - the perfect place to accomplish some laptop tasks. I can't wait to go back!

I was in a tea mood, so I got matcha with a shot of strawberry puree. My drink was both creamy and sweet which is what you expect in high quality matcha. Their drinks come with oat milk but you can change that upon request. What I really like about this Godega Market location is that it's intertwined with the Old Market Passageway. It's just a cute spot with tons of history and delicious restaurants nearby. Perfect for a quick drink right before a meal. This location also has tons of outdoor seating and some indoor seating as well. Definitely my favorite location versus the one in Aksarben. Can't wait to be back!

The place has a ton of goodies and good amount of grab and go options. The sandwich itself was simple but the lettuce had a nice crisp still and the tomatoes had some crunch left. It came with a mustard and mayo packet in the container as well. Staff was friendly enough. Definitely worth stopping in when in the area and I'm sure it's great for groceries if you need something or drinks if you live downtown.

I loved Hardy Coffee!…read more It was our last morning in Omaha and I really needed something besides hotel coffee to start my day. I saw that this place was nearby on Yelp and once I googled them I realized I could place an online order for pickup. If you know me, you know I love a good order ahead option! We did just that and my husband walked over to get the coffee and return. I had their espresso tonic and it was absolutely lovely. This was hands down the best coffee I had in Omaha and I hope to return someday!

I really love Hardy Coffee, i've been a few times now and the coffee has always been really tasty…read more I know they homemake at least some of their coffee syrups and you can taste the difference! I also love their space, it's beautiful and very open. The only thing that keeps me from going back more is I feel that they are quite a bit more expensive then other local coffee shops. Often times after I had an alternative milk, my coffee is $10+ which is just hard to justify on a regular basis.

LOVED the building and owner:)…read more This place has an unmatched rustic vibe. It has charm and character, and a story to it. What was so sad was the rave reviews, and stellar experiences listed had my expectations through the roof! The matcha tasted like close to nothing, more like a sweet milk. I don't recommend grabbing this drink if you stop by! The coffee was robust, and quite interesting. It's a fun stop for the vibes and chatting, not for me taste wise! Thanks for the amazing experience though:)

The space is relaxed and has a welcoming vibe with two distinct seating areas offering a mix of tables, lounge chairs, and sofas. The music is at a comfortable level, with plenty of folks settled in on their laptops working and studying. Even though it was cold outside, I ordered a medium iced mocha. It was rich and chocolaty without being overly sweet. Despite a decent crowd inside, my drink was ready within minutes and service was genuinely friendly. Overall, this is a solid neighborhood coffee shop that's worth the short walk if you're staying nearby.

The cashier was friendly and helped me apply the eGift card that I had purchased. The Bees Knees Latte that I used to order is no longer on the menu, so I tried a Honey Bee, similar, just without the aromatics. Not as good, but I am sure I could have asked for something closer to the original latte, so that is not on them. Ambience is great, well decorated, and plenty of tables. The baristas were having a conversation that would be deemed inappropriate by many, especially since the young man had a few colorful things to say that got some good laughs from his coworkers; luckily, I don't mind hearing the gossip while I wait for my beverage. Fairly quick service considering how busy they were. I recommend stopping by if there is a free space open.

Apart of my "Omaha coffee trials" reviews, I plan to review all coffee shops in Omaha!…read more I LOVEEEEEE the ambiance that this place has, it makes you feel like you have stepped into another universe. It's quiet, has a small amount of sunlight that comes in and brightens the place up, and there's seating upstairs that looks over the lower level seating. It's gorgeous inside. They carry local baked goods like Osos baked goods and they also have ice cream which I find fun! Their coffee syrup selection is vast, if you like a fun syrup you need to come here. The espresso was a little too sour for me, I did like the flavor combo of white mocha and sugar cookie though! They also have alternative milks which I appreciate. We each had a cream cheese danish that was SO good, the barista even warmed it up for us. It was a lovely experience!

Cold brew with cream: too acidic (affording to my wife) and tastes more like an ice coffee and less like a cold brew. Maybe could have used more water? The acidity was very harsh. The latte was great, very smooth espresso paired with a yummy made in house brown sugar syrup. This is not the place to go if you like flavors as they only have ONE flavor. The brown sugar flavor is wonderful though! The person working was very patient as I looked over the menu for several minutes. Overall, a wonderful experience and it's beautiful inside!
