A stunning coffee shop in the heart of downtown Cincinnati inside the Atlas building. Lots of sitting room and beautiful decor! Staff was really nice but very busy and overwhelmed and she was the only person taking orders and making all of drink and food order. The classic breakfast sandwhich was really good. If you ever need a quiet place to take a break while you're downtown, highly recommend!

Super cute cafe in Downtown Cincinnati. This was in walking distance from my hotel so I decided to check it out. The interior is modern and colorful. There's plenty of seating available and a few different areas so that everyone isn't right on top of one another. The service was friendly and helpful when I asked questions. I had a tremendous flat white with vanilla. It was perfectly balanced and tasted amazing. They use two shots of espresso in all of their drinks. I also had the original breakfast sandwich, which had egg, cheese, and sausage on an everything bagel with Dijon mustard. The sandwich was delicious. Who knew Dijon mustard could be so good on a breakfast sandwich?!? The only draw back was the WiFi. You HAVE to give an email address, which I don't like. And after 3 hours I was kicked out! When I tried to go back in it said I had used my daily allotment. So don't plan to stay and work here for a full day. This would have been pretty annoying had I been in the middle of something. But luckily it was a good point for me to pack up. The noise level was moderate. There were people there filming some type of interview and chatting, however with headphones in, it wasn't too loud and I was able to get work done and focus

Very good and quick service. The coffee was very strong. I got a caramel latte and am not sure if caramel was actually out into it. Cute location

Urbana is the perfect quaint little coffee shop to meet all your needs. I frequently take business meetings here because it's quiet enough to hear each other and it's also family friendly. There's something on the menu for everyone, and their seasonal flavors are my favorite!

Walked in and immediately was hit with the smell of fresh brewed coffee. Very spacious cafe to work at during the day.

I went to the Findlay Market to explore the local hidden gems. Suddenly, this little lovely cafe seized my attention. Since it was late afternoon, I ordered a decaf latte with oat milk (sorry for messing up the options to make it even not like a "real" coffee lol), and the taste was impressive! The baristas were friendly as well. Grabbing such a warm cup of coffee in rainy days is always amazing. :)

I came here with some friends for birthday! It was so fun! The vibes walking in were so good upon entrance. It was very trendy and made for a great place to take cute photos. The baristas were really kind, but service was a little slow since it was only 2 of them and we were a bigger group. Not a complaint, just an observation and a note that it's not the best if you're in a big rush. My friend got a croissant that I tried, it was very good and flaky. I got a blueberry muffin that was delicious! Overall would recommend!!!

LOVED this coffee shop in the heart of downtown Cincinnati. I was in town for work and Urbana was steps away from my hotel, located inside of the Atlas building. It was easy to find and once inside, I stepped into a funky, modern, and spacious cafe. The vibrant rugs and wall mural definitely added to the atmosphere, which is totally a vibe I can get into. The music was rather loud but I did have headphones so I was able to tune into whatever music I was in the mood for. They also have electrical outlets scattered around the seating. Thank goodness because it wasn't long before I needed to juice up my laptop. I got a lot of work done during my stay and I can confidently say that the wifi was strong. Placing my order was a breeze, but it did take the barista a good ten minutes to get to my drink. I went around 9am, which I'm sure is a busy time. The ladies behind the counter were putting in work and by the time I was settled in at a table, they were calling my order. I went with an iced vanilla latte with almond milk and a butter croissant. The croissant was pillowey on the inside, with a light crust on the outside - perfecto! My latte was also delicious. When I asked if I could get my water bottle filled, they were happy to do it. Very grateful for that. No need to waste another cup. I wouldn't hesitate to come back if I catch myself back in the neighborhood. Five stars all around.

Love the atmosphere of this location! So beautiful with the gold, vintage chairs, cool furniture and spaciousness. They had a decent amount of cushioned seating which is actually rare in coffee shops these days, so I really appreciate it as someone with a bad back! The staff is also very friendly and engaging. They have good coffee and snacks, and I believe this location had a section of grab and go foods as well. If you're looking for a place to hang downtown near the Aranoff and Fountain Square, this is a great location.

Really cute coffee shop with quality coffee. The cappuccino was delicious and I'm always appreciative of coffee shops that serve in real mugs/cups. I'm tired of drinking out of paper. The only reason for the 4 stars instead of 5 is that they don't carry imitation sugar at all. Which I find really odd for a coffee shop, luckily I usually carry my own supply with me just for these types of situations.

No Wifi! Deal breaker. I love the atmosphere but avoid attending when I need to complete work. I would be a regular if they added wifi!

We picked up a sampling on Thursday morning around 8:30. The line wasn't crazy so that was nice…read more UBE HALAYA CROISSANT 5.50 This was good. The ube filling was light and fluffy. Overall it was a bit overfilled so it was very messy and hard to eat. I could have done without the hidden coconut shavings inside. KIMCHI & EGG CROISSANT 5 I had this one for breakfast. I warmed it in my air fryer for 6 minutes on 330 so it didn't overcook. The croissant was flaky and delicious, and the kimchi added good flavor without being spicy. I would have liked to see a little more mozzarella but overall it was tasty! SOBACHA CHOCOLATE CHUNK COOKIE 4 Also tasty, oversized cookie. Soft and chewy texture. CINNAMON ALMOND BLUEBERRY TOAST (THURSDAY/FRIDAY ONLY) 5.25 Very good. The cinnamon filling reminded me of a brown sugar pop tart. I warmed it in my air fryer and it was perfect. Would order again. I just wish they had an espresso bar!

Came here on a Friday night with a group of friends around 6pm and waited around an hour in the…read moresurrounding area. The inside is a small, cozy space and service is always great. Menu is small enough to make you want everything on it - started out with the mochi mochi panic, which we all loved. All of our entrees were worth the wait - super delicious, warm, and hearty. I got the Wagyu Smashburger, which I've had at least 3-4 times now and will continue to get every time I come!
