    Strawberry matcha
    Johnetta H.

    I enjoyed Wayward. It's a spacious coffee shop with the sounds of soothing music mixed with espresso machines. I got strawberry matcha which was a nice treat. Couldn't try the pastries cause they were mostly sold out by the afternoon.

    Gold rush and latte

    A fun little coffee spot that has nice seating, open spaces, and bright lighting. I liked the ambience a lot because it felt casual and also like a place you could work or read. It was fairly quiet when we went on a weekday. The coffee tastes really good and the baristas are nice. Cost is average for a local coffee place.

    The vibes inside this coffee shop were really nice; however, there was no seating available when we went. We ended up ordering a cortado and matcha latte. The matcha was fairly watery and pretty pricey given that it did not taste the best. Additionally, the cortado was really bitter and also more expensive than other local options. The combination of all of these factors left me disappointed and I do not plan on returning.

    Gold rush Latte

    Someone said this cafe was a work from home heaven, and I'd 100% agree. This cafe has lo-fi music and nothing wordy or loud. Easy place to concentrate. Does feel like an upscale corporate office. Very nice vibes tho. The gold rush latte is amazing! Highly recommend this place if you need to concentrate or want to catch up with friends. I'd like longer hours tho.

    I'm so glad I stumbled upon Wayward Coffee Co upon searching for a coffee shop to get some work done! The space is very big, bright, and welcoming with lots of beautiful greenery, making the study/work experience much more enjoyable. There's plenty of seating, including large tables that can fit up to 8 people, small 2 seaters, and couches. There's also a private community room, but I'm not sure if it requires a reservation or fee. Drinks were priced on the higher end. I ordered an iced chai, which was pretty standard. The service was also fairly average. There is a private parking lot available in the front and extra available behind the building. Overall, I'm really glad I made the trip from Fort Worth to here! I highly recommend this spot, especially if you're needing to hanker down and are looking for a productive place to study/work.

    a wfh paradise, except i dont mean it as a compliment. the shop is cute, but in a sort of vast, stale way that makes it more of an office than gathering space -- the shop was dead silent the last time i came in. I know the design district is expensive, but the prices push it even for the neighborhood. to add to that, the wifi rarely works, defeating its one strength as a good place to work. the staff was very kind though, and of course the coffee is high-quality. if you're looking for somewhere with a little bit more soul, i would just go down the street to triumph's.

    A good hang in the Design District. Plenty of high tables near the entrance and towards the back. There are additional tables/rooms to book as well. Baristas were friendly. They had your usual coffee/locally supported beer draft options. There were some baked goods for nibbles. Seasonal menu lead me to a choice of pistachio latte float. The foam is pre-made. I got my latte with oat milk. It came cold. Only a star off for off flavor. The foam tasted sour. Barista was cool with remaking it hot. Second try/time was the charm! They had WiFi. Same parking for Subway and barre 3. Parking available in the lot. Cheers!

    DRINKS Matcha - has a unique flavor. It's not like super representative of matcha but it has a special tea aroma to it which tastes good! VIBES This is a great place to work. They have plenty of seating from benches near outlets to high share seating to sofas to private rooms. I love the vibe of this place with all the real plants, some of them being super huge just really cool. Great connection, plenty of outlets, and lots of people were working, studying or just talking with each other. SERVICE so great! They're very personable and friendly!

    Perfect Cappuccino every time.

    Coffee is always on point and they are super consistent. Comfortable place to sit and relax. So far, my favorite coffee shop in Dallas by far.

    Some really good coffee found in Dallas! This shop has a lively yet calm environment on the weekends. Seems like a place of community. The day I came there was a catering popup by Molino Oloyo who were serving tacos (from breakfast to wagyu confit and more). You may be in for a treat depending on when you stop bu during the week. I ordered a classic honey/vanilla iced latte with oatmilk. The quality of the coffee was REALLY bomb!

    I read through other reviews that the people aren't the friendliest and I'd have to agree with that! It was a little tough to have someone crack a smile behind the counter... and I feel like that's just something you need when you're spending $7 on a coffee. I got the hibiscus tea and my husband got the drip coffee. Both were great! It was a little odd that the coffee shop didn't have holiday flavors .. but maybe they are trying to be different? I loveeeeed the plants in the place also- that's always a plus for me! Lots of seating- the place is pretty huge!

    I came here for my birthday a few weeks ago after a friend recommended them. I really loved the atmosphere here, it was calm and inviting! The choice to have plants all throughout is such a good one, I really liked the decor. After asking tons of questions, the baristas never seemed put off by it and they answered all of them kindly. I really appreciated how great they were. My Oat Milk Latte was awesome! I really love when I can taste the work that goes into a good espresso shot, it had such a rich and creaminess to it. Will be back!

    Love it. The place is so cool. The barista was so nice and recommended the Hearth and Soul seasonal drink was sooo delicious! Great place. Recommend for sure!

    Great place to work and get coffee. My croissant tasted like paper though. For a 6 dollar pastry that was so silly...

    They consistently make good drinks. Have a good vibe inside and have a conference room you can rent out.

They have good artwork here too and lots of things to just look at on the walls. I tried the creme brulee iced latte. While it wasn't super strong or sweet, i thought it was just the right amount of flavoring. I will definitely stop by here again the next time I am in town.

I emailed them so hopefully can get that fixed. I love to be part of a reward program and have the ease of ordering ahead from the app! When i walked in this morning, i immediately noticed that it was packed, not really anywhere to sit, so be aware of that. The line wasn't too long and moved quickly. The baked goods looked tasty and they said were from local bakery la casita (i think??). The wait for my drink was short. The service was ok, nothing to write home about, but they were busy so eh. My drink was beautiful and delicious. Highly recommend! I also thought that the decor was very clean, modern and comfy.
