We ordered 4 drinks - 2 Vietnamese Coffees , salted plum soda, an Americano and 2 lox bagels. The food came out pretty quickly and really liked the Everything Bagel, it was toasted and had a good amount of cream cheese. We also had the Americano shortly after. Unfortunately the other 3 drinks took about 25 minutes to come out, well after everyone else sitting down received their orders. There were 2 baristas working, so I'm not sure why it took so long. There wasn't an acknowledgment of the delay either, which was a little disappointing. Perhaps an off day, but I'm hoping that next time I'll have a better experience.

They make all the pastries in house, and their drinks are so unique and made with really good quality ingredients. Try all their matchas!!! But I'd totally recommend the ones made with coconut water if you want something different and refreshing. The other reason why I love this place is because every weekend they have fun events and popups! A must visit!!

I do have an issues with the cashier or baristas, for someone reason they find it enjoyable to ignore you when you walk in and keep talking to someone who clearly was just talking. The vibe is off when you walk in they are always standoffish. I'd recommend going to their other location downtown and ignoring this place. The baristas are always with an attitude that they don't care or simply it's a day job. I get it, but please acknowledge that people walking in and make sure you are greeting them. But this is the second time that I've come to this location and both times I've been extremely disappointing. Unfortunately, the only saving grace is the coffee.

They have great options for drinks and their basic americano is pretty good. They do the basics well, which make all the drinks that much better. This is a fun place to check out.

They serve espresso drinks, specialty lattes, loose leaf tea, a full bar, and a small selection of local pastries. The menu is creative and elevated. We ordered the Passenger Side and Random Rules and both were so good. Truly some of the most interesting, well-executed coffee drinks I've had. The barista clearly knew his craft and made great recommendations. You order at the counter and then they bring your drinks to your table, which is a nice touch. The ambiance is a whole vibe. Chill music, stylish decor, and a DJ turntable right in the middle of the space for when it shifts into bar mode at night. It's on the smaller side, but there's a surprising amount of comfortable seating. Parking can be a little tricky since it's downtown, but there are options nearby if you're willing to look. Definitely a spot worth checking out if you're in Salt Lake and want something a little different than your typical coffee shop.

5 stars ‼ If you…read moredidn't know, this crystal recently moved locations and became a crystal shop AND a cafe!! If you're looking for a little magic with your morning coffee, Sacred Energy Crystal, Coffee, & Cafe is your new go-to spot! This place is an absolute gem (pun intended). First off, the espresso drinks are so reasonably priced--finally a spot where you don't need to pay $8 for a decent latte. I grabbed an oat milk cappuccino and it was smooth, rich, and perfectly balanced. But the real star of the menu? The Amethyst Matcha. It's this fun, dreamy-looking lavender matcha latte that tastes as good as it looks--lightly sweet, super creamy, and totally Instagram-worthy. Food-wise, everything I tried was delicious. The avocado toast ($9.99) is next-level (topped with a fried egg and balsamic glaze), and the Big Dipper burger ($13.99) was amazing. They clearly put love and intention into their ingredients. The cafe opens early at 7:00am, which is perfect for early birds like me. The crystal shop at the front opens a bit later at 9:00am, and it's a total vibe--tons of beautiful stones, incense, and energy tools to browse while sipping your drink. It's like getting a mini spiritual reset with your coffee. Not only does this place have coffee, food, and an incredible crystal shop, they also have Hape ceremony's, Yoga, and more upstairs. Which I believe you sign up for online. I came in on a Sunday morning and all the staff were super friendly and welcoming, and the ambiance is cozy with just the right amount of woo-woo. Highly recommend stopping by--whether you're into crystals or just want a damn good matcha.
