211 Cafe

YOU FOUND THE BESTnnAt first I liked Starbucks and was relatively happy with all the coffee places in town, but after going here a few times, nothing else compares. It’s not even close. I’ve been going here almost every day for years and when they’re closed we go home and make coffee with their awesome Guatemalan beans.nnHERE’S WHYnnI think I’ve figured out why it’s so much better. I can speak to the heart and the taste.nnThey roast differently - they only use a medium roast and I know that every other shop mostly serves a dark roast and I don’t know why you would, because you lose the coffee taste, the caffeine and have to replace it with sugar to taste decent.nnTHE TASTE & WHAT TO TRYnnThe coffee is so pure tasting and never bitter! Not even the espresso. I love the breve and don’t usually get sweet drinks, but their honey, cinnamon latte is on everyone’s list of favorites. All their syrup are made in house and are not too sweet. They’re the perfect blend of sweet and coffee. Also the iced, decaf, mocha with oat milk is like a oatmeal cookie. Oh yeah and they’re decaf doesn’t have any chemicals because they use the Swiss water technique to extract the caffeine. Every little thing it perfect.nnNICEST COFFEE SHOP AWARDnnThey also are so flipping nice! I went in once 5 years ago and we were friends because all the sudden we had coffee in common and that’s all it takes. Ask anyone who goes there and they’ll tell you the same. Mauricio the owner is your friend and Katrina is secretly the best barista in town.nnFOOD OPTIONSnnTheir food options are mostly made in house and although they sound plain - they all have an extra little detail that makes them something you can’t get anywhere else. The prices are great for a budget too.nnThey have large patio and fast WiFi for working or letting the kids play too.nn-OK NOW GO TRY IT-nnThis is the best coffee shop around in every way. Every time I travel I compare places to 211 and rarely find one as good. It’s the new standard. Try it and you’ll know what I mean.nnud83dude01✌ud83cudffb

Best coffee in town. Handmade syrups and beautiful coffee.

Excellent coffee, and the best service

Best beans in town!

I have LOVED this place since I first found them last April but, nothing has been the same since the move. They run out of ingredients, they have newer people who are neither friendly nor efficient. Today, I walked in and there were no customers at the counter. The guy was making a drink. He would not make eye contact or acknowledge my existence. It took him nearly 5 minutes to finish that one drink. He didn't know how to make a Little Italy even though the owner showed him the last time I was there. It took forever and it was gross. My normally sweet drink was bitter and sour. They always have chocolate chip scones which I ordered as usual. He didn't bother to tell me it wasn't chocolate chip. Imagine the shock to my taste buds when it was unexpected some kind of berry.nnHorribly disappointed.
