Z vault has great coffee, food, and service. I love how many sugar free options they offer, even sugar free cold foams! They have your standard milk alternatives: oat, soy, coconut, almond, etc. Their banana bread latte is one of my favorite lattes of all time. My daughter loves their matcha. Their food is delicious too. Their omelettes are hearty and stuffed. read more

I had an iced banana bread iced latte and their stuffed tater tots which were fully loaded with cheese and bacon--so unique and delicious. There's ample space for parking and even a drive thru! Staff were super friendly and they sell gelato and a sim wide range of smoothies, breakfast and lunch items. They have specials throughout the week. I was able to snag a fully Belgian waffle for only $5! Definitely will be back. read more

Nice location to grab some coffee!! I haven't checked out Z Vault yet so decided to try it out. I got a lavender cold brew coffee and it was good. Service was nice and fast. There is a variety of seating from small tables to large tables to sit. read more

When I first walked in I love the way the restaurant looked. A beautiful coffee shop aesthetic that makes you want to write poetry or philosophize about happy things. Then the staff all had welcoming smiles and professionalism. And then they had GREAT food. I had the avocado toast. Delicious. I was honestly full for the rest of the day. Definitely recommend and will be back with friends. read more

This place is so beautiful and the staff was amazing! We stopped for a quick breakfast and were not disappointed. Oatmeal was awesome and crepe was great. Coffee was awesome too. Highly recommend! read more

We came here as a party of ten and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. We ordered London fogs, matcha lattes, coffee, veggie omelettes, crepes, a waffle, soups, turkey bacon BLTs and a fruit cup. The usage of a decent tea was wonderful. I've seen a lot of cafes using stash teas or something similar so for a place to use rishi teas it resulted in a much better latte for tea lovers. The omelettes were packed with veggies and the fruit cup had nice fresh fruit and it was overall a nice place to have brunch. I'd go back for sure. read more

This is one of my favorite places in downtown Bel Air. The food is so delicious and the staff is always friendly and welcoming! read more

Great coffee, great gelato equals a great affogato. The baristas and their service only add to the greatness. Finally, Mohammed always makes you feel welcome read more

Z Vault is genuinely the best locally owned coffee shop in Bel Air, MD. I've been coming here every Thursday for a couple of months now to study and I have no complaints. The espresso is so smooth and has a wonderful taste, the staff if always welcoming and kind, the environment is perfect for studying, but also for socializing, it's clean, and it's so cute! They also have really tasty options for breakfast, lunch, and gelato too!! The turkey sandwich with garlic mayo is a personal favorite. I love love love this coffee shop. Please go support! read more

Greatest coffee in Maryland! Oh, and crepes to die for! Great staff...starts making my drink when I walk in the door.

Visited this coffee shop early on Sunday morning, the staff were nice and even suggested the type of latte I should get because I had no clue as to what to get, lol! I ended up getting a hot latte with almond milk and French vanilla and it was super good! Me and my husband ordered two breakfast sandwiches on wheat grain toast with over medium eggs, tomato and avocado and it was Absolutely Delicious!! There were mixed reviews about this place, but I'm here to say, "IF YOU AEE IN THE AREA STOP BY, YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED " oh and by the way , the decor was giving, "It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas "!! Love it! read more

Pleasant respite Used my fav app (Yelp) looking for hot chocolate on this rainy dreary cold day.. I'd side-eyed "the vault" just yesterday passing through town It was listed as one of the top 10, and not a chain. Reviews the last year hadn't been kind, but I figured I'd give it a shot Parked in the rear, it's on a corner and a former bank. So had a drive thru, but I wanted to stop in. Quaint and festively decorated inside, it's a cool place to sit and chat w a friend, or plop on the couch and kill an hour like I did Wasn't really hungry but opted to try the grilled cheese with my hot cocoa, and the lady at the register coerced me into ordering her daughters' banana no-nut bread I cornered on the couch and didn't have to wait long for the piping hot gooey sharp cheese on sour dough sandwich. The cocoa was just ok..nothing spectacular (I got it with almond milk) but the sandwich was really good and I only ate half...I'd def come back. Too full to try the dessert, I carried it home. It wasn't crowded. No more than 4 other seated customers so I felt comfortable chilling on the couch on my phone, nibbling lol. When I got up to leave, another customer moved from their chair and plopped on "my comfortable couch corner" and wrapped himself around a comfy Christmas pillow..smiling through the window he waved goodbye Def recommend for the ambience, and the sandwich. Cocoa was drinkable, but not amazing. But the offer a variety of smoothies and bowls and breakfast things (sorry, didn't take a pic of the menu) read more

Z Vault - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Bel Air, Maryland

The space is big, tons of seating inside and outside. They've got a variety of food, breakfast sandwiches, açaí bowls, pastries and more. The staff is a little confused sometimes by the simplest requests, but they try hard to make sure to get it right. They don't quite have a good cold foam.. and I find their matcha to be too sweet and watery. Their coffees are pretty good and decently priced. Their acai and smoothie bowls are big! I never can finish it in one sitting but I'm sure there are others who can. read more

Delicious food perfectly prepared in a clean and pleasant atmosphere, we love this place ! If I opened a cafe this is what I'd strive for. The employees are also very nice and go above and beyond read more

This spacious coffee spot in downtown Bel Air was ok. There is plenty of seating and some tables for working if you choose. They play soft music in the background and they do offer some small food bites. Unfortunately, the coffee was just ok. I ordered my usual latte and asked for it for here (I.e. I wanted it served in a mug and not a paper cup), but the barista was clueless and didn't do that. She also was clearly not very trained as the drink served was pretty much a cappuccino with thick, heavy foam. The milk was also steamed too hot so it was slightly bitter. I did try a muffin which was pretty good. Overall, it was ok, but relative to very good coffee shops it doesn't quite cut it. read more

Absolutely adorable coffee shop! Met family here after an adoption at circuit court house, and the owner went above and beyond taking care of us. Food was delicious (bacon, egg and cheese on croissant, tuna salad on gluten free bread, crepes, iced coffees, and teas, etc), service was stellar and super friendly (we were 50 people and the staff handled the crowd like true pros), and the atmosphere is fun, modern and energetic. I will definitely be back to visit this Bel Air gem. read more

Horrible customer service! Avoid this place, for the employees are incredibly rude! I went today, Saturday, 11/29/25, and ordered 2 BLT's and a large sweet tea. Was asked to pull around after 5 minutes waiting, and told 1-2 more minutes. Another ten minutes went by and a young girl said my food was prepared wrong. I returned the tea and asked for a refund and she said go through drive-thru, which I waited again. An older guy with gray hair and a beard said you can't wait 10 minutes. He said there were 10-15 orders ahead of me and I could wait. I said the food was done wrong and I asked for a refund, and yes 15 minutes was too long for NO FOOD. He was incredibly nasty. He reluctantly gave me a refund, and I told him this was the third time in a month this happened and I'm not returning. He didn't care. Food was good at first, then went downhill fast, along with the customer service! Avoid unless you want disrespect and attitude along with your long wait for food, and prepared incorrectly. At least they told me it was wrong. read more

What happened z vault!?!? I use to love this place. Getting a cappuccino from here was something I looked forward to. I have been there twice recently and both times were an extreme let down. After the first time, I thought maybe it was an off day so I went again. The second time was even worse. Don't get me wrong, the people were friendly, but the cappuccino was horrible. Tastes like hot milk?!?!?! My brother ordered an almond croissant and that too he did not like all. I'm not sure what you guys did, but please bring back whatever you changed. Extremely disappointed and even more dissatisfied. read more

This was my first time here and had the motivated smoothie which was very good, tasted so fresh and refreshing. The employees were super friendly and answered any questions that I had about the menu. I'll definitely come back to try different items. read more

Z Vault - Motivated smoothie - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Bel Air, Maryland

Best baristas in Bel Air. They're friendly and their product quality is high. Unfortunately Bel Air's coffee scene is desperately lacking in the hospitality department and Z Vault is the single exception to that general rule. Also their decor is the best in town. read more

Great ambiance and amazing service! The food really does need improvements though. Very bland and the Açaí bowls are extremely poor

The first year z vault was open it was good. Now it's intolerably bad coffee. Every time I decide to get coffee here, the order is wrong, it take 25 min, and the coffee is just made poorly. read more

Z Vault - Straight milk with honey. Where is the coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Bel Air, Maryland

Z Vault has the easiest ordering system ever: Place your order on the app and then pick up in the drive-thru! Wanting to try something new for breakfast, I was mesmerized by the photos of their smoothie bowls and boy, they did not disappoint! I ordered the Brilliant smoothie which was BRIGHT pink and since I ordered it in a bowl, it came topped with generous scoops of granola, coconut flakes, chia seeds, bee pollen, honey, and fresh strawberries & banana--YUM!! To wash it all down, I tried a caramel cappuccino with almond milk and OMG--it was the BEST cappuccino I have ever had. No contest! It was so delicious and not overly sweet from the caramel flavoring. The espresso was divine. I'm still dreaming about it! They also wrote a little sweet note on my cup sleeve which was a thoughtful touch. Can't wait to go back again soon! read more

Glad they're are being extra careful cause of corona but today I went through the drive through asked for a large iced latte got but medium. And the cheese danish was a big disappointment today , the cheese part is so little compared to the large amount of cheese filling like usual. I said I asked for large latte but the employee said I ordered medium but I definitely asked for large but as long as I didn't get charged for large it's okay. But I don't have a receipt. read more

Stopped by a coffee place in town on my way to work, encountered a completely unprofessional employee. Employee: I'm not sure who my favorites are, EMT's or firefighters Me: uhhh I don't know I'm just an EMT Employee: well at least you don't have the audacity of police. You save lives, they do the opposite. Yet I'm sure if there was an incident there, they would be crying for help and the police would be called. I came for coffee, left with an opinion I didn't ask for. Lost my business. read more

The staff are so helpful and not to mention the food and beverages are great. My friend ordered a matcha latte and it was her favorite she has ever had. Sharing laughs with the staff and enjoying the cute interior design made it a great experience. Thank you!! read more

Solid coffee here! I'd say their food menu is limited compared to their coffee and smoothies. Nice space for working but extremely cold and music is a bit too loud! read more

This place has great food and drinks! Pretty reasonably priced. I got a grilled cheese sandwich on sourdough bread and it was around $9. Not to terribly bad for the Bel Air area. Nice inside seating and staff was friendly. read more

First time here. Loved the decor. Sleek and modern. Ordering was a bit odd. The person who took our order did not seem to know the drinks well and when we asked for something specific, she recommended a different drink not really along the same lines of what I described. Coffee had a smooth taste, but my vanilla latte lacked any vanilla flavor - maybe they forgot to add? Overall, I would visit them again. I think as time goes on, they will get into their groove. I know they have only been open two months. read more

Ventured here when the Bagelworks was overwhelmed. Cute spot with a nice vibe. The cashier was very kind and patient. But the food left a lot to be desired. I ordered the vault melt - the cheese was not in any way melted, there was absolutely no flavor of any kind. There was an egg even though it doesn't say it comes with egg? Incredibly bland. We also ordered a frittata - for the price it should be a meal, but they made the two smallest egg muffins. My coffee was ok, probably not something I would recommend. Overall this place has a lot of potential, they just need to work on the flavorfulness and quality of their food, and they might be able stand against Bagelworks read more

First time visit, and had a wonderful experience. The aesthetic is bright and modern. I told the staff it was my first time and she offered to answer any questions and directed me to the interactive menu. We were the only ones there, so we were able to take our time. The cold brew coffee was delicious, I didn't even need creamer, could have drank it as is with vanilla flavoring. The smoothie bowls were huge, enough for 2 servings. We took ours home to eat later. The smoothie bowls took a few minutes to make, which we didn't mind because you saw they were freshly slicing and blending. All of the staff was kind, but were having personal conversations very loudly. Perhaps if the restaurant were busier we wouldn't have heard their every word. read more

Cool place and always friendly service. They have lots of good drink and smoothie options and even made my dog a special pup cup treat!

I was out of town from CA on a business trip and needed a place where I can sit endlessly while I work remotely- of course being from LA area I was looking for that coffee place that has a mermaid on it but stumbled upon this place and so glad that I did! The environment is stellar, the music is awesome as are the coffee drinks, smoothies and pastries! Yes, I'm the mermaid coffee snob but I now wish that there was a Z Vault where I live- my style of latte was so dang good that it blew the mermaid out of the water! As mentioned, I was going to be working for quite a few hours each day, which I did and I was never harassed to leave. I tried a few different smoothies both bowl and parfait style and both were awesome! I've read some reviews on here where people are not so happy about the pricing however one should note the following: all organic, good size portions, good size toppings and fresh! read more
