Right now, they have an OUTSTANDING Mt Ijen Java fermented coffee that cannot be beat. If you are looking to get an elevated cup, come here.

My favorite…read morecoffee is the hummingbird which has lavender, raspberry, and coconut but they have plenty more unique coffees to choose from. The vibes are totally cool and laid back with board games to play with in the side room. Cool local art is usually on the walls that is for purchase and even more awesome is the murals across the street to view while eating on the pasto area outside or walk across and pose with them like we like to do! It stays pretty busy but the coffees come out fast so no complaints about the service. My mom and daughter are obsessed with the coffee cake and be careful cause often they run out or if you're too early they aren't ready yet to be served! But I personally love the peanut butter bars!

I did request for their Matcha latte with 2 shots of espresso since I was suffering from a caffeine headache-3 days of little to no caffeine lol thats on me. The gentleman accommodated my ask and I am forever grateful. Supporting locals is my thing but I will state when things are questionable. Its authentic in presentation and nondescript in terms of, if you're looking fir a Starbucks ambiance, this is not it. If want truer to Galveston and raw, come sit a while.

Wonder what it's like in the winter? It did have a bathroom, but I had to walk up long stairs to a sketchy area (equipment). Overall good I guess if you don't want a more trendy place. The barista was ranting to a customer while I sat at the bar.

I looked at the menu to see what was offered. I went to the counter to order. From the Coffee Menu section, I ordered an Espresso for 2.75. From the same section, I ordered a Drip Coffee for 2.75. From the display case, I got a Sugar Cookie. We sat down at a table. The Espresso had a sharp, but enjoyable flavor. The Drip Coffee had a pleasant temperature. It was smooth. The Sugar Cookie was a delight. I enjoyed every bite. The service was friendly. I didn't have any issues. Overall, I'm glad I stopped here. This place was excellent. I would definitely go again.

It's a cute little coffee shop that has a wide selection of drinks and a few sweet treats to accompany them. They offer alternative milk options so I like getting a hot cocoa with oat milk.

I walked in on a very rainy day to see this place. I've been to milk bar locations all over, but…read morethis is apparently not the same brand. It seemed really dark inside upon entry. It felt kind of cluttered. I expect they must have a patio setup on nicer days, but on this day all that equipment was taking up all the space right inside the front entrance. I'm not much on sweets. I can be talked into an interesting cookie, but this was not the place I expected and I don't think they sold cookies or interesting milk flavors from what I could tell. They do sell sketchy looking hot dogs and pizza. I'm not sure who orders that. It seems like they specialize in ice cream. I tried one flavor and it was pretty sweet for me. I'm not much on sweets so that's not hard to do for me. I stood around letting my wife pick her flavor. I would have waited outside given how cramped the space felt, but it was pouring rain. My wife mentioned the place has artwork and stuff. I didn't see that and didn't know to expect it. I also heard there is a wine bar somewhere on the premise. I may have to come back and give that a try.

I ordered an all day breakfast sandwich that was ready in little to no time at all and was pipping hot and fresh. The croissant was buttery, flakey and toasted to perfection. Not to mention the drink menu itself is diverse with something for everyone. My friend and I had a mom's almond Joy and raspberry truffle iced coffee; both rich and artfully prepared. The café itself was immaculate. Beautifully decorated, clean, air-conditioned and refreshing. They have a few merchandise items for purchase as well as coffee by the pound. Here's the thing, Galveston is home to more Starbucks than you can count on your hands. It is incredibly difficult to find a local coffee shop that does not disappoint. Your options are either an unlimited drink menu with nothing but sweets and subpar drinks. Or your average six items at a coffee shop with an enormous menu of food that doesn't hit. Seawall coffee company does a unique job of having a wide variety of beverages and an all day menu that will satisfy the pickiest of eaters. Final remarks: incredibly friendly service, great ambience, fantastic food, and beverages. You won't regret stopping by.

The place had a lively, cozy vibe that fit the day perfectly. I ordered a unique craft beer from Charleston, SC, which was such a cool find on tap in Galveston. My family tried the boozy hot chocolate, wine, and a couple of drinks from their solid coffee selection. The staff was friendly and kept things moving smoothly even with the festival crowd. The reason for 4 stars instead of 5--is the limited snack options. It would've been nice to pair the drinks with a few more bites, especially during such a busy event. Overall, though, Proletariat is definitely worth a stop if you're exploring the Strand. Great drinks, great vibe, and a perfect little retreat during Dickens on the Strand.
