Adorable and gigantic shop on the corner in downtown Buffalo. Was in town for work and looking for local coffee shop. Didn't even notice when I drove here that the almighty national brand across the street. So glad I found this place. Had a basic black light roast and it was amazing. Shop is huge. Place is clean. Music was awesome. And the people were super nice greeting you right through the door and immediately asking if you need help selecting and pointing out the extensive for a coffee shop breakfast menu. Loved it would totally come back read more

SPoT Coffee - New sandwich smash and dash - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Buffalo, New York

Good prices at this location. I bought a large black coffee, a yogurt parfait, and an egg and cheese sausage on a bagel. For only $17. The service was immediate and I was greeted upon entering. The ladies were friendly and courteous and took my order with ease. The setting is a bit darker which I like. It's easier on the eyes and doesn't cause eye fatigue. Not too busy for lunch. Get yourself some coffee and food. You'll be happy you did. read more

My daughter has recently moved to a gluten free diet. Staff went out of their way make sure she had what she needed. Friendly staff and was fun to see how engaging they are with all of their guests while my daughter waited for her order. Highly recommend and we will be back! read more

Ignore the haters! This place is amazing! Tariq at the register is a pure delight big selection of delicious snacks and food. I came here for the first time to see how any local coffee shop could be rated worst than the Starbucks across the street. Definitely better than Starbucks. read more

GREAT COFFEE. Stronger than I expected. I ordered the BLT sandwich and it was definitely flavorful especially with the Rosemary bread. However, there could've been additional slices of bacon along with thicker slices. The bread is way too thick to not have more than 4 slices of bacon. That's my only recommendation. Aside from that... again great coffee!!! read more

I came twice during my trip to NY and it was great. This coffee shop feels super 90s in the best way. Cozy and stylish and open and artsy. The service was great and the coffee was delish! The bagels were grand and there breakfast sandwich not shown here was my favorite order! Not expensive and straight forward coffee shop. read more

Nice little local coffee shop near the theater district, corner of Chippewa walkable area. They do offer gluten free rolls and wraps; they suggest the roll and it was pretty good for being gluten free. They do charge extra for that, and if you would like an alternative milk option they have them but charge extra as well. read more

We went here basically as soon as they opened for some coffee. We were not greeted when we walked in or even when we ordered. We accidentally got the door stuck open and couldn't fix it ourselves. The barista was not very nice about it and told someone in the back that she "won't work under these conditions" and we were the only people in the place. Very odd and not welcoming vibes for 7am on a Monday morning at a coffee shop. The place has plenty of places to sit and the coffee is decent. They have a large food menu and good looking pastries/desserts, but we didn't try any! read more

Recommend staying clear of this spot. One of the worst lattes I've had in recent years paired with unfriendly service from top to bottom. Don't waste your time or money. read more

Kyler the woman who took my order was extremely rude. I will never come back to this coffee spot again. The coffee is fine, but if you can't be kind at 7:30 in the morning, I will not provide my business. read more

Great spot and coffee/latte was delicious. I had the omelette and toast and it was really good. Ambiance was great and chill atmosphere.

Decent location. Nice interior. Lots of seating. Good tea. Okay yogurt parfait. Massively weird and slightly aggro vibes from the barista. I'm not used to smiling at someone and saying good morning only to catch an attitude in return. The service was *off off*. That alone would keep me away if I were local. Yikes. read more

We stayed at the nearby Hilton and boy was I glad to see SPoT nearby! No more hotel room swill for Mr. Coffee, that's me (or so I'm told). For its espresso, SPoT has the good sense to use a La Marzocco, an exquisite instrument originating in Florence Italy. It is to espresso what Sophia Loren is to beauty. Only problem is they are still using paper cups instead of ceramic for espresso. "It's the pandemic." Ok then wash the stupid thing. SPoT is still very aggressive in their mask mandate, but if you are seated there's no risk and you can go without. According to places and people like SPoT, the virus knows if you are seated and is thus rendered harmless. Then why did we all get vaccinated instead of just sitting down. I got the Mike's on focaccia and it was largely inedible. No worry. I didn't come for the chow. read more

Came into this location on Saturday July 12th to grab some beverages with my 2 friends. I ordered the drinks and we sat down at a table to wait for them. One of the girls behind the counter very rudely yelled out to us "excuse me, are you guys gonna buy something?" to which I said "I already did, we are waiting for them" and then she ran to the back without saying a word back to me. So rude!!!! Will not be coming back. read more

I loved that this was local, not a Starbucks (right across the street!) or a Tim Hortons. The coffee was perfect for me and the sweet treat hit the SPoT! The folks serving were courteous and helpful as we were visiting from out of town, out of state. The space was clean, cozy and comfortable...and quaint. Has an amahzing pink bubble chandelier. read more

DO NOT GET ICED COFFEE HERE. Just wasted $5 on the worst cup of iced coffee i've ever ordered. The barista filled my cup to the top with ice then put the cup directly under the molten hot stream of regular coffee brewing. All the ice in my cup immediately melted and she served me the most watered down "coffee" possible. It was fully translucent. That's how you know it's going to be bad. It's bitter, slightly coffee flavored water. At least cool down the coffee before you ice it so this doesn't happen, or offer cold brew! It's literally going in the trash. I added a splash of milk to try to make it drinkable but it just isn't. Sad because i wanted to support local but should have just gone across the street to starbucks. Awful. read more

Terrible customer service. Ordered a sausage egg & cheese on a croissant, when my name is called for it, i got a bagel with cream cheese on it. I go and tell the woman that works the register and she tells me i can put the one thats been sitting on a plate, on the counter, for ten minutes. Never again. read more

I came here for tea and it did not disappoint! I got an herbal one, which was blueberry-flavored, called Rishi. I really liked it. The other herbal ones were turmeric ginger and chamomile, but I wanted to try something new. The Rishi was hearty and full of vigor in taste! The place is so spacious, with tables and stools surrounding the counter. There's a gorgeous Buffalo-themed mural spread out on the wall. It's on the corner, so there's plenty of light and air coming in. There were lots of people sitting and working in silence, and a few chatting with others. Their service was quick and friendly. Their food menu is something else. I wish I had room to try one of their items! They have so many options that sounded great. read more

Nasty and rude staff that needs to be educated in how to deal with real people and not computer screens. Zero for consumer service from the cashier to the food server. Costumers were better off when these two were in their parents' basements and not in the hospitality business! read more

Dear western New York, contrary to whatever you may think, there is NO good coffee in this entire region, and SPOT tops the list as does Overwinter. I cannot fathom how any of you think you are getting a good cup of coffee. every cup I have had and I am 0 for 9, is weak, bitter, swill. if you want to taste real coffee go to First Branch in South Royalton Vermont, I guarantee you will never be able to drink the garbage they are serving up in western New York. read more

First of all, I'm a card carrying Starbucks rewards member, but lately that national chain has become more of an excuse for a caffeine fix than an enjoyable experience. When I had the choice of a real coffee experience or a fast food moment, I chose Spot coffee. It's funny that the other place is right across the street. It makes me wonder why anyone would compromise their coffee experience when you obviously have a better choice. The atmosphere is fun and funky. It fits the neighborhood on the corner of West Chippewa and Delaware Avenue . The woman behind the counter was incredibly friendly and conversational. After a stressful appointment at the IRS, it is so nice to be greeted with a smile. I asked her for a large latte in a ceramic mug rather than sipping it out of a little hole in a plastic lid. The latte was smooth, delicious, and artistically made. I also ordered a breakfast sandwich. The other place would taken it out of a cooler and shoved it in the microwave for a few minutes. This was freshly made with real eggs in the kitchen. I grabbed a table And absorbed the atmosphere while enjoying every second of my morning breakfast. Thank you for turning the start of my day around. read more

Total BS! Hamburg spot coffee location decided to close early on a Friday at 6:30. They're supposed to be open till 7:00. I drove all the way out here for nothing. I'm very upset. Worker (male) sees me through the window, but doesn't say a thing I get to see him leave in his car very disappointing! I will never return. They have lost my business! read more

Mixed experience -- ambience and service were excellent, and innovative/extensive menu of breakfast and other sandwiches. Espresso was one of the best I've had at a chain coffee shop, but the black house coffee was only average; it just wasn't strong-enough brewed for me to enjoy black, and it definitely wasn't strong enough to attempt cream or sugar -- it would have been watery. Probably fine as a red-eye, but that makes for a pretty expensive coffee. read more

This coffee shop is literally next door to a Starbucks, so I wanted to support the small business and hang out for a few minutes before a meeting. I ordered a grande iced caramel macchiato and searched for a place to sit. The seating area is dingy and is not clean. Crumbs on tables, crumbs on seats, stuff all over the carpeted floor. Over half the outlets don't work. I took a sip of my $6.00+ coffee hoping to at least have good coffee to talk about, but nope. It was bitter and the flavor was just not good at all. I was very disappointed and it unfortunately had me wishing I had visited the Starbucks next door. The staff was friendly and my order was done quickly, but that can't make up for everything this place is lacking. read more

Might just be the worst place I've ever gotten coffee...

Would have given 0 stars if I could... read more

SPoT Coffee - a hand holding a cup of coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Buffalo, New York

Very slow atmosphere for a breakfast/coffee shop. Food took 20 mins and wasn't good enough to eat. Avoid this operation.

Come here for the coffee. The coffee is good, the espresso is good. Come here for the coffee. But do not come here for the food, unless it's just a bakery item that can be handed to you when you order. Do not come here for the food because the making of the food is really slow--and because the food you then receive is not worth the wait. But the coffee is great! read more

I was staying at a local hotel and decided to give SPoT a chance. According to my family, I'm a bit of an espresso snob. I often find the espresso I order doesn't compare to what I make at home. SPoT was the exception. The espresso was good and freshly made. Rich reddish brown crema, balanced shot. Exceeded my expectations. read more
