What a wonderfully inviting coffee shop/cafe that is located in the Clifton neighborhood just off…read morethe Mellwood Avenue exit on I-64. I came for the coffee, but oh that display of homemade bakery items had me drooling! I had the Turkish Coffee which was a complete experience. The barista talked me through the process of making the coffee, as he was rolling the small, long-handled coffee pot in warm sand, to ensure even heat distribution and to create a foam. The coffee was served in traditional fashion using gorgeous serviceware that consisted of a long-stemmed coffee pot, a small demitasse-type cup, a covered dish with a small sweet item (in my case a small cookie), and water for cleansing the palate. I was worried that the coffee would be too strong for my taste, but it was not strong at all and had a much different taste than espresso. It was deliciously full-bodied and satisfying. The cafe was spotlessly clean with a warm and relaxing vibe with many tables. I especially enjoyed the wall of famous people and events from Middle Eastern countries. Ample street-side parking is available on area streets.

In Clifton, a neighborhood flooded with coffee shops, Café Shiraz stands out…read more I visited the small coffee shop on Brownsboro Road today for the first time, and among a loaded menu full of lots of food and drinks, there were a couple real standouts that will have me coming back. First: the Turkish coffee. This was served traditionally (as best I can tell), in beautiful servingware with a coffee pot, small mug and cup of water to drink to cleanse the palate. My friend's tea was served in a tea press which I liked as well. Cafe Shiraz also boasted a well stocked case of pastries. I enjoyed a pastry stuffed with chorizo. Cafe Shiraz had many indoor tables. It was a perfect place to chat. Such a great coffee spot all the way around.

It was so chill with plenty of fun decor and a nice collection of board games. A plethora of plants were for sale. My husband had a panini, and I couldn't believe the affordable pricing for that and my iced coffee. I would come here all the time if I was local. Ample seating and quick service make this an excellent stop for anyone looking for a coffee on-the-go or a relaxing coffee date spot with friends. Additionally, Historic Old Louisville is a great area to walk around for travelers who love looking at historic neighborhoods. I encourage tourists to grab a cup-to-go at Old Louisville Coffee Co-op and explore the neighborhood!

So keep that in mind and browse some of the local jewelry, plants and other handmade goods or hang outside on their patio. As far as coffee, they really do a great job creating balanced drinks. My go-to has become an iced americano with whole milk and raspberry. It's got a little sweet fruity kick, but a nice depths from the espresso. A super inclusive vibe, lots of opportunity to enjoy evening activities like open mics, poetry, etc. And a good playlist humming along in the background.

Went to Wiltshire Bakery during Sunday brunch and it was pretty busy with a decent line but it…read moredidn't take too long to order. Food took a bit to come out though maybe 15 min. Got the lox on a sourdough bagel. The bagel itself is big and pretty doughy, which I liked. They load it up with sweet pickled onions.... honestly too much, it kind of buries the salmon. And there's not a ton of lox to begin with. This isn't a loaded NYC lox bagel, you get one slice a side. What's there was a bit not sure about how they cure the salmon here. Still good overall, just not balanced. $14 feels a bit high for what you get. Tried the ham and cheddar quiche too. Nice and creamy, good flavor, slight smokiness. Solid, but really small for $10. Like a tiny slice of pie. Comes with a small fruit bowl but come on. The spanakopita croissant was probably the best thing I had. Good size, flaky, buttery, nice spinach and cheese flavor. Definitely should be warmed up for max yum factor, but for $5.50 it's a great deal. Overall, ok spot. Brunch spots know they can just charge anything and people keep going.

The cortado was also strong, super hot, and perfectly balanced with steamed milk. The barista was super sweet, and made me feel incredibly welcome (not always a feature of NYC dining). While it's relatively small inside, it's quaint and actually has a decent amount of seating. There was a steady stream of customers flowing through during the handful of hours I was there, and everyone always had somewhere to sit. I was here on a random Thursday, but I could see this place being mobbed on the weekends so I'd get here early to get your pick of treats and seating. The pastries looked off the hook but I restrained myself from participating this visit due to the numerous carbs consumed in the giant fresh-baked everything bagel. But I shall return, and I SHALL eat the sweets.

On this visit, I got a double cortado, and while it was piping hot, the flavor of the coffee tasted a bit burnt. I also wish they offered glass cups for orders to stay instead of automatically giving takeout cups. Since it seems like such a popular spot, I'd be willing to go back and try it again.

More often than not my barista has not provided me with tasty coffees. I wish there was a recipe that everyone would follow in order to get a uniform cuppa coffee. Prices are higher than other coffee places. I do like the decor though. They have good chocolate covered espresso beans. Parking is problematic, you can park in the back but it's a little bit of a hassle to park and walk around the building, especially if you're in a pinch for time. Also, this location has odd hours.
