Equiano Cafe

Best espresso in Eugene. Was well balanced and served very hot. I only wish they could provide the option of taking the espresso "for here" outside with a ceramic cup instead of paper for taste and waste purposes (mainly taste since paper strongly negatively affects espresso flavor). They have a variety of beans which shows their dedication to the flavor nuances between them instead of the shops that just try to get out as many decent drinks in a day type thing.

I don't give a 5 star coffee review easily, but this spot is an absolute gem! We just cruised into Eugene and this was our first stop off I5. Their shared patio area really transported us into one of our favorite cafes in Mexico. Also, my wife and I got black Americanos and this was the last day of their featured Ethiopian espresso. When there's no steamed milk, cream, or sugar, it all comes down to the quality of the bean and barista. Great service, and the drinks were ready super efficiently. Will be back to try that cold brew!

Delicious Coffee joint with a very cute garden in the back. I enjoyed the quality craftsmanship that went into my caffeine craving cure. The staff was friendly and warm. I loved the use of floral accents throughout the establishment. They had a beautiful flowering jasmine vine in the garden out back by the stage that smelled outstanding and complimented the taste of my coffee with the smell of beautiful blooms. I will definitely be going back again!

Great atmosphere, amazing staff, super warm welcoming and friendly. Highly recommend to anyone looking for good local coffee. They roast their own coffee and you can buy bags of it. Probably the most underrated coffee spot in Eugene. 100% recommend to anyone to go there at least once. You'll keep coming back. A1 across the board. 💯
