    Cowboy Tea and Salvi Cheese Bread
    Ada J.

    I'm always on the hunt for coffee shops to get work done. I have a few places I regularly go back to but Third Place might need to be added to the rotation. The ambiance gives off a boho vibe with the indoor plants and rattan furniture. I also love their playlist so much I didn't end up putting on my headphones to listen to my own music. I visited not too long after they opened and had the whole place to myself for a bit. I ordered the cowboy tea and salvi cheese bread. I honestly didn't know what I was going to expect with the drink but I was so pleasantly surprised. I'm usually a fan of hojicha and oolong on their own as earthy teas but the addition of jarritos gave it a nice acidity. It was a unique spin on a "sweetened teas". The cheese bread was also amazing. It reminded me of a Filipino pastry called mamon that is a fluffy sweet bread. They added a big dollop of black sesame butter on top. I love the creativity of their menu items and it seems as though they rotate things seasonally. This is a great hidden gem in the Heights area and would definitely recommend checking them out.

    Nutty coffee100/10

    I loved the drinks and the food here. I had a nutty coffee that tasted like a Reese's I've had the matcha drink too and that was good. When I first tasted the nutty coffee without mixing it, I was like ehhhhh it was ok. But once u mix it and the flavors came together, wow!! This weeks menu had 2 things I wanted to try and that was the mapo rigatoni and the Hamburg eggrolls. The mapo rigatoni was better of the 2. I just thought it was a little salty. I'd come here again. Love that at 11 u can order a limited menu of foods. Plenty of parking spaces for me when I went. This is a coffee shop so a lot of people come here and keep to themselves with their headphones and their laptops.

    I have been seeing so many IG reels about Third Place and it's near me, so wanted to try it out! We went on a Saturday, and got the Peanut Cold Brew drink (I think) which was mid.. I wasn't impressed with it. I did get an empanada, and it was freaking fire!! I would go back just for that. It was so warm, flavorful and perfect size for a light snack. Pricing is a little high to be honest. I got 2 drinks and a pastry and it was like $27.. Not sure I'd go back for coffee, but I'd go to try their food/menu. Parking is crazy, cause it's right next to Happy Hour Pilates.. but we were able to find street parking. Service was quick. Not super friendly, but also not hateful. Definitely gorgeous inside and super modern.

    Burmese Chips & Salsa (6/21)

    We came in for Saturday lunch service for Chef Suu Khin's pop-up. Parking wasn't an issue, as there is a reasonably-sized lot in front as well as neighborhood streets. However, depending on the rotation and time of day, it can get (and was) pretty full. It is a small-ish place so it does get busy during lunch service. The ambiance is nice - the atmosphere felt much more casual and fun. That being said, it was fairly noisy as there were quite a few people. I got the Heights Matcha and the Lemongrass Catfish Congee. My father got the Shan Khao Swè and we shared the Burmese Chips & Salsa. The matcha was so refreshing and helped to balance the tangy-spicy flavors throughout. We shared a bit of each other's dish also - the noodles had a good heat and soaked up the sauce well. That congee, though - I am NOT exaggerating when I say it changed my brain chemistry. The warm, thick soup with tender catfish chunks combined with the cruller and peanut-sesame crunch was heavenly, especially with the provided garlic-chili flakes. Lived up to the hype and then some! I even got the chance to see Chef Suu as she stopped by each table to check in. She was very nice and answered my father's questions. I hope to eat more of her creations in the future. I've always really liked Jūn, so when I heard that Third Place was opening up during the day, I was excited to see what the owners would do. I was not disappointed in the slightest and look forward to future chef rotations and events. We will definitely be coming back.

    This place offers a cozy environment with excellent coffee and desserts as well. The staff was welcoming, making it a relaxing place to visit. Good food, friendly staff, and fair prices. I would recommend it.

    If you did not do your research on Third Place, it is the same spot as Jun but only in the morning at night it becomes Jun. So find the Jun's big wood door for the entrance to Third Place. You order at the counter and they will bring your food and drink to you table. There are good amount of seatings and outlet for you to relax at your new third place to do your studies or work, they have a water station for you to get your own water. I came here for the rotating chef pop up but by the time we go there they were all sold out for the day. We are here so I might as well try the regular menu food they have here which are the breakfast tacos and a chicken salad. The tacos were expensive and so was the chicken salad. They were expensive so I thought they would match the quality to the price. But no, the food here is just overpriced. I will not come back here and properly will not visit Jun either.

    Having been to Jun for dinner before and remembering it as one of the best dinners I've had in awhile, I was excited to find out that it's now a coffee/lunch spot during the day. The drinks and pastries are also unique like Jin's menu. Not really surprised that I'd enjoy everything here too. We ordered as much as we could lol. Will deal with 45 south to come back again for a caffeine and pastry fix . -Iced matcha with honey: 4/5. Matcha flavor was great. Ceremonial? Just a little too much honey for me -Nutty brew: 5/5. Salvadorian cold brew with peanut foam. Heavenly -Cortado: 5/5. Nice and strong -Cafe de olla: 5/5. Christmas in a cup -Bo lo bao: sweet bread with savory carnitas was a delicious combo -Empanada: has tomato, bacon, and cream cheese. Loved the flaky crust -peach tart: we loved the peaches. Sweet but not overpowering. Will return to try more of everything and catch rotating chef residencies

    What a great place to grab asian, fusion food that rotates often as well as their unique drink menu. I got the Third Place Matcha and their sando which were great. Super good service, clean spot with lots of seating and parking. The matcha was very refreshing which i enjoyed. The chips had a lime taste which i wasn't a huge fan of. The sandwich was good, reminded more of a Bani Mi in terms of flavor than a japanese sando. Overall good spot and i would come back.

    I've been following Chef Evelyn ever since her pop-up days years ago. It's great seeing her progression from then to now. Of course when I heard about Third Place I knew immediately I had to come. I've been twice now since their opening a few weeks ago and can't wait to come back. First of all, I love that they're repurposing Jun as a coffee/lunch spot in the daytime. Somehow, the decor inside works perfectly for both concepts. I also love how they feature local/special chefs weekly with an ever changing menu. This will be what keeps me coming back again and again. Drinks: Third place matcha: 4/5 interesting flavors, it reminded me of a pina colada + matcha Nutty Brew: 4.5/5 who knew peanut foam would belong with coffee Cowboy Tea: 4/5 interesting drink, the flavors worked well but not something i'd get all the time Iced Latte with Piloncillo syrup: 3.75/5 I figured I should actually try a normal drink so I can compare with other coffee shops. The latte was solid but not anything that special. I wish they had more syrups to choose from Food: Bo lo bao: 4/5 perfectly soft and filled with carnitas Empanada: 3/5 the tomato and cream cheese threw me off a little but the empanada crust was really tasty Salvi cheese bread: 4/5 this was so good and i loved the sesame butter it came with Kolache with sausage and cheese: 3.5/5 not bad but not something I would get again I've had one of their popups so far and it was a chef who I've been following on social media. Her food did not disappoint! Overall, I love this spot and the concept. It's a great place to get some work done or to catch up with friends. The seats were well spaced and it was not too loud. I can't wait to come back and bring more friends to try it out

    I love this place already but when they started doing all the pop ups I wanted to cry. The food and chefs they have allowed into their space have been phenomenal. Every item is made carefully and with the best of ingredients. You get to watch in the window and enjoy a nice drink from Third Place. Such a great move to showcase other chefs and it shows you that the people of Jun and Third Place really value the culinary community.

    Fish congee

    I had an Americano, their savory pastry and fish congee. Everything was yummy but the congee was too salty... their service was good and I love their interior. Not a big space but I like the concept of having guest chefs.

    Heard about Third Place for quite a while but couldn't find the time to visit until now. It's located in the same space as Jun in the Northern Heights area. Parking is available out front. The interior is fairly contemporary with an open view of the kitchen to the right side. We came by right after lunch to check out their day time menu; they had coffee options and some pastries so we got a couple pastries to try. We got their caramel cookie and seasonal bread pudding. I thought it was going to be similar to other bread and pastry shops where it takes a couple minutes to get your order; it took about a solid 20 minutes for them to grab us a cookie and a square of bread pudding. The staff didn't seem that surprised or concerned at all so I'm guessing this is the norm. Once we finally got the cookie and bread pudding, the anticipation was a bit worn off by then. The cookie was moist in the center but dry towards the outside, pretty tasty but it was a $5 cookie. The bread pudding was a bit denser than expected and needed a sauce to go with it. Overall, this is an upscale coffee and pastry spot in the daytime where you can chill and work (?) in the same space as Jun but it a bit less impressive than the reviews make it seem.

    Wow. What an incredible find! I went for some coffee but left with a whole gourmet meal! The cold brew with piloncillo and peanut foam was incredibly flavorful and such a fun twist on flavors I grew up with. I also tried out their limited time salad that included eggplant, shrimp, and a variety of elements that I wouldn't think to pair together. Definitely keep this place in mind for coffee, bites, and a place to work/study.

    The empanada with cream cheese, bacon jam and Thai basil was amazing. I'm going to be thinking about it for a while!

    I love to eat at El Bolillo Bakery. It all started because my boyfriend really loves their conchas,…read moreso he was the one who introduced me to the place. I've always liked bakeries, but I try to eat on the healthier side, so I usually avoid anything that might tempt me.But I am a sucker for cinnamon rolls, so when I saw they had them, of course I had to try one and they are so, so good. Now we actually go there about once every two weeks because we love it that much and I look forward to opening the front doors and smelling the sweet smell of baked goods Recently we also found out that they have cheese & sausage kolaches, and oh my gosh, they are delicious. They are really, really good and were such a nice surprise when we tried them. The location closest to us is the one on Airline Drive, and we usually go in the afternoon so we can avoid the after-work crowd. That time of day works really well for us because there aren't too many people, which makes it easier to grab bread and look around without feeling rushed. The ordering process is pretty quick and simple. You grab your metal tray and tongs, open each little door, pick what you want, and put it on the tray. When you're ready, you go to the register where the ladies count the breads, ring everything up, and bag it nicely for you. We're usually in and out pretty fast, which we really like. We love going to El Bolillo, and at this point it has definitely become a staple for us. We honestly can't get enough of it.

    Always the freshest Mexican bread. Options for everyone and reasonably priced. You won't break the…read morebank like your typical trendy bakery/pastry place. Grab a tray and tongs and load up. It can get busy but people move through quickly. I'm a sucker for the conchas and definitely ate one in the car on the way home.
