WOW! We went twice in three days because it was that good…read more The food is fresh, delicious, and packed with healthy options. The value is great too. I was pleasantly surprised that a waffle comes included with the skillets, and even more surprised that it's a house-made protein waffle. Such a nice touch! The coffee was just as impressive as the food. They have a huge variety of flavors and customization options. Their lattes are on the sweeter side, which I personally love, and the coffee itself is smooth. The cold foam is fantastic. I also appreciate that all drinks come in to-go cups. As a slow coffee drinker, I love being able to take my coffee with me when I'm ready to leave. The atmosphere is great as well, especially the patio. Our first visit was during a busier time, and while our server was incredibly friendly, the patio didn't get checked on very often beyond ordering and food delivery. When we came back a few days later and sat inside, the service was fantastic. Multiple staff members checked on us throughout our meal, and the experience felt much more attentive. It may have just been a difference between the patio and indoor seating or the level of busyness. Overall, we were impressed enough to come back within three days, which says a lot. Great food, great coffee, great atmosphere. Highly, highly recommend!

The coffee was delicious, but the vanilla lavender tea was not as good, but still Tea, my guest felt it should have been steeped longer. The egg hash with 2 waffles was great, the waffles were exceptionally good. It's a great choice if you find yourself here. One thing to be prepared for tall people... the seat and table height are not great. You'll be crouching down to get food in your mouth before it falls off of your fork. The tables are low, and the seats are too high. As a shorter person I had to crouch and slouch over my food to get it into my mouth. This, sadly would be the one reason I'd not return. Also, This is a different type of restaurant, they're a church restaurant. Odd, but interesting. Either way, great waffles, cool staff!

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!++

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.

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!

It was delicious and on par to the high coffee standards I have coming from Denver! They have a pastry case, large drink menu, unique items for sale, packaged beans, merch, etc. Tables are standard, many four tops open, though we loved sitting at the community table to work. Keys for the bathroom are located at the front counter! No complaints, would totally come here again. Hardy Coffee has my stamp of approval!

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.

Their rotating menu keeps things interesting. Great coffee flavor mixed with creative freedoms of coffee creations! I've taken multiple out-of-town friends here and they have all been impressed! The service is great with expert baristas willing to answer any and all questions. The ambiance is photo-worthy and peaceful enough for college students or working professionals to work from a secondary location! I tried the Apple, Spice, + Everything nice today and was impressed by the genuine Apple flavor. Some shops go wrong and make a candle-flavored Apple coffee, not Zen! I encourage everyone to find their Zen and give this place a try, you will not be disappointed!

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.

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!
