Kaffeology

I met a friend here for coffee and we stayed for brunch! Absolutely lovely, fresh, vegetable forward menu. My coconut cream cold brew was delicious! The avocado toast did not disappoint with a fried egg and micro greens. Yum!nMine came boxed-not sure if they offer plated.

This place has become one of my favorites to stop into. I've driven by the area a few times and seen it however I believe they were closed due to covid. I'm super excited I got finally try it. This review is based off 2 sperate visits.nnAt first glance the building seems kind of bland on the outside however one you walk in you are moved into a very lively and open floor plan. The place is very lightly colored with a lot of white and windows to let in natural light. By no means is this a dark place. A counter and kitchen take up some of the building and a bunch of smaller tables occupy the other half. All finished up with a small unisex bathroom.nnThe coffee here was phenomenal. I ordered a white mocha latte and a special they had, a lavender latte with oat milk for my partner. I'm not entirely sure where their beans are coming from but they are amazing. Extraction was perfect. I don't care for lavender or oat milk but I tried a sip of it and even that was amazing. My only complaint would be that they use standard ice cubes instead of coffee cubes. Coffee prices are average around 6$ a coffee.nnOn my second visit I tried a breakfast sandwich and some macarons (again for my partner). A beautifully crafted sandwich that was all (seemingly*) fresh ingredients and put together perfectly was really well received. I'm always hesitant to order food from coffee shops. It's usually over priced and under delivered. Kaffeology threw that right out the window. I felt very satisfied and full after my breakfast. I didn't personally try the macarons. Those were for my partner. She did say that they were amazing with strong distinct but not overpowering flavors. I will note that I feel the price of the sandwich ~7 was fair but the macarons seem over priced at around ~4. A little high for something that you can pop in your mouth.nn* I say seemingly because the kitchen is obscured from view and while everything points to it being a fresh sandwich with veggies etc, I coukd also be wrong because I didn't personally see it get made.nnThe staff has been super polite and helpful the two times I've visited. Eager to answer any questions I had and patient with me searching the menu for probably what was realistically too long. The shop also sells some bottled beverages in a cooler, pre made meals in a open cooler, some interesting coffee/tea related knick knacks. Mugs. Brewers etc. Some fresh tea in the far wall. No fresh beans that I could see. I did pick up a set of reusable metal straws.nnOverall I highly recommend Kaffeology. Very lovely and happy place to be inside. The staff are amazing. Coffee and food are top notch. The prices are fair on most things and in coffee shop averages. I look forward to my next visit in the area and would definitely recommend this to someone.

So delicious. Went for my first time today with a pretty long list to-go & everyone who tried it loved the food. I had the breakfast BLT w/ tempeh bacon bits & their churro milkshake which was super good. Clean, artsy/boho vibe inside. So glad this new location just opened in Portsmouth we will definitely be back!

Impeccable food, drinks and staff! Wish I lived closer.
