Where to find Cole Coffee Bean + Retail Shop
What's in the cup
“A great mix of locals, regulars, students - the coffee is excellent - their rennovated cafe space now includes pour over as well as espresso drinks, and is light and airy.”
What regulars say again and again
“Also, the almond croissant left us disappointed.”
“First, the beans are excellent, so good I order them shipped to me when away for any length of time (excellent shipping service to boot).”
What customers say
An awesome local coffee shop featuring about 18 coffees and a variety of roasts. Drip-cup coffee made to order and all the quality espresso drinks that you'd expect. Locals love the poached eggs on La Farine toast. Mostly outside seating with just a few tables inside.
My wife likes a non-dairy macchiato, I usually drink an Americano. The espresso is usually pretty good. Unfortunately it's so dependent on the barista. One day we get delicious drinks, another day they're on the bitter side. Also, the almond croissant left us disappointed.
A customer of Cole's for a decade switching from Pete's after they went corporate, and not a 'reviewer' but doing this now to support an outstanding independent local business in these very tough times.
A wonderful, independently owned (not a chain!!) cafe. Has done brilliantly in the face of the chains - Peets, Starbucks, Philz - all going in within a block of them.
