    Bourbon maple latte
    Jess F.

    What a hidden gem just 10 min away from the Dallas downtown area! First of all, you absolutely can't beat the vibes here. They play vinyls, with tons of mixed table and couch seating as well as different rooms to meet any atmosphere you're looking for. Lots of windows with good sunlight as well, and free parking and wifi - you just can't beat it! During my visit they had a drip Onyx coffee, and I also got a bourbon maple latte (winter special). Absolutely delicious! I'd definitely come back to try more drinks. The owner is also so kind and personal, he took the time to learn our names and learn about where we were coming from. Really made the experience more special! Overall, I loved this shop and wish I lived closer - I'd be here literally all the time!

    This is a super cute coffee shop in elmwood that i finally stopped in to yesterday. Its very non-descript from the outside but the inside is chill and had a great vibe! Parking is not terrible, mostly you'll park on the side street. Walking up i noticed the back yard/patio area first. Its pretty cute and they have corn hole set up. I also noticed a wheelchair ramp. The front has steps so if you need wheelchair accessible they do have it, just in the back. This is a house converted into a coffee shop so they have different rooms where you can hang out. Its so cute and so chill. I ordered a guava matcha and it was really good. That also get pastries from a local bakery and have a bunch of gluten free options which i love. I ended up chilling on the couch reading for a couple hours and it was delightful. I really enjoyed the music too!

    Super cute establishment! The service was really good and friendly, which is always appreciated. My coffee wasn't that memorable, but that experience was! I would try something different next time to see if it's worth the almost $8 price tag. I would really put it at 3.5 star, but not a 3 star

    Late review but came in a few weeks ago at 2pm, and Oscar and Michela were gracious enough to welcome us in! They were patient, kind, and Oscar was knowledgeable when giving us recommendations! We ended up getting a Matcha Soleil, Guava Matcha, and La Divina pour over! The drinks were delicious and pretty! I forgot to take pictures of them though which is a shame! The shop was nearly empty when we came in so I can't really give a review on the vibe, but there is a lot of seating, and I can see it being a perfect study/work spot! Overall, 10/10 experience we will definitely be coming back in the future!

    On of my fave spots in Dallas! Everyone here was so friendly and welcoming! The horchata latte was seriously amazing!! I love that they make all the syrups in house. They are very dog friendly as well

    Absolutely loved the flavor of my drink! The service was fast, and the workers were kind. There's seating inside and outside to take advantage of the warmer weather.

    This is a gem in Oak Cliff. The space is cozy and clean. Every little thing is made totally from scratch. The lovely barista was making caramel in a saucepan when I got there. Their seasonal drinks are so creative and delicious and unique. The owner roasts his own beans. If you're going to treat yourself to a fancy coffee, do it here.

    Very cozy, an old house redone into a coffee shop

    I came here on a rainy day. The parking is very small but there is neighborhood parking available. It's a very cute area. Inside has a nice slow pace feel, it doesn't feel like other coffee shops, people are just genuinely taking it slow here and it's nice. The customer service wasn't anything I'd rave about, the coffee was good. Not the best but I genuinely enjoyed the vibes here and would definitely come back on a rainy day just for the environment.

    Guava Iced Matcha
    Dennis L.

    Had their Iced Guava Matcha. Amazing taste! Great service! Definitely contends as best coffee in the area. Must have!

    They have a couple small tables out front (as well as seating inside and lots of other outdoor seating in the "backyard")
    Heather M.

    I've been here a few times now and really enjoy it! There is lots of parking - they have a small lot, but lots of street parking available in the neighborhood. The vibes are chill and great for hanging out or getting some work done! There is tons of seating - 2 small tables on the front porch, a "living room" seating area, and lots of seating in the "back yard". They also usually have a record on. The baristas are super friendly and always do a great job crafting the beverages! I first came thanks to the Dallasites coffee passport and enjoyed a hot LA Mood (horchata and espresso) and iced 75224 (shaken espresso, condensed milk, and cinnamon) - both were very yummy but the next time I came back I got the 75224 again since it was a slight favorite! I've also enjoyed their coconut foam cold brew a couple times (they have other flavors for the foam to choose from)! Overall, this spot is a great addition to the neighborhood and I would highly recommend stopping by to enjoy a beverage and small bite!

    Matcha latte & iced latte
    Sierra S.

    First of all that CUSTOMER SERVICE?!?! I may have had a lil uh-oh moment and spilled my entire matcha all over and the baristas were kind enough to help me clean up the mess and remake my drink (even despite me offering to pay again). It's these types of acts of service that cannot go unnoticed and need to be addressed because an embarrassing moment turned into one that makes me want to come back again and again. My matcha was pretty good. Confirmed that Slow & Steady does use ceremonial grade matcha that is not sweetened! This is what you want in a coffee shop offering matcha! I resorted back to a go-to order of lavender matcha & it hit the spot for sure. The space was super cute and spacious, but I do wish there were more tables to sit at. That would further make this place a great spot to work at or bring a book to read. I would say this coffee shop is great currently for grab & go, or bringing a friend to chat. Definitely a must-visit in Dallas! Highly recommend!

    cute gem in the neighborhood. love this place. it is pretty spacious. parking could possibly be troublesome at times. there was only one worker so the order/coffee took long. nonetheless the coffee was amazing. you can taste how fresh the beans are. got to finish my book here in the back room. people come and go so it can be noisy. would definitely come back

    Vanilla slow rush
    Rose G.

    love this place sm, perfect to go read a book or chill and study. ALSO... it's dog friendly make sure to try their vanilla slow rush, my favorite.

First of all, the Bishop Arts District itself is incredibly charming. Block after block of unique shops ranging from bookstores and bakeries to candle shops, candy stores, coffee spots, and little boutiques. It's exactly the kind of neighborhood I loveeeee exploring while traveling and if I lived in Dallas, I'd probably frequent this area often. As for The Wild Detectives, the concept alone immediately appealed to me...bookstore meets cafe meets bar meets restaurant. That combination will pretty much always grab my attention. I love to read, I love to eat. The space has a pretty relaxed, community oriented vibe, and during my Saturday morning/early afternoon visit, there were plenty of people working, reading, chatting, and hanging out both inside and on the patio. My one slight disappointment was that the bookstore side itself was smaller than I expected and didn't have quite as extensive a selection as I had imagined. That said, I still managed to leave with a few great additions for my ever growing TBR pile. Overall, this was a worthwhile stop and one I may revisit the next time I'm in Dallas.

My friends and I enjoyed two types of two; my favorite being the Berry Garden tea made of white tea with a blackberry infusion. The teas are available for purchase in their tea library section, along with the tea steeper cups as well. $13-14 for the loose tea bags (makes up to 80 cups) and $6 for the mini steepers. I highly recommend visiting this place whether you do the tea experience or not it's such a cute spot in Bishop Arts and we got to meet the chef and our waitress, both were so friendly and personable. Can't wait to go back!
