This is a cute little coffee stand inside a common area for several smaller shops. There are several tables to allow you to enjoy your coffee/food inside. This is a nice combo of indoor with very open space and large entryway with natural light. Lots of fun people watching! The coffee was delicious! As an abode canner I was super excited to also be purchasing a new lug lid and matching jar!! I will happily pay the deposit to keep the jar and lid! The coffee was very smooth and flavorful. I ordered an iced mocha latte. The chocolate was good quality and not overpowering. Service was friendly and helpful! The area was clean, even the multiple tables were kept clean.
Cute little bohemian coffee shop operating inside a warehouse space in Little Italy. The service is methodical and meticulous (so not fast) but the results are lovely and delicious.
Trending co space style layout with the coffee shop in the center rear. Unique modular storefronts line both sides of the space. The atmosphere was lightly above average on account of the custom furniture and tables. The service didn't quite stand out as above average and felt forced, but there was engagement and a helpful response to my request for a suggestion. Unfortunately the drink itself was not a temperature that adult steamed milk beverages are typically served at. I didn't test it with a thermometer but the beverage was at best kid temp warm, maybe around 130?
Really quality coffee. The taste is on par with alot of the best cafes I've had. Really good selection of pastries as well. And they serve you the coffee in a mug as opposed to the boring paper cups everyone uses.
I’ve been here a bunch of times and will continue to do so. Parking anywhere in Little Italy is a task by itself so go early soon after they open. Service is good. There’s plenty of seating. Most importantly, the coffee and food are good. I personally like their iced Mexican mocha and iced honey cinnamon latte. On this trip I got the “pull apart bun” and I can’t wait to get it on my next trip! So good.

This place was amazing. My brother and I both had cappuccinos that were both delicious and beautiful. We also tried out one of the chocolate almond croissants and one of the traditional croissants. They were both warmed up for us and delightful. The space is great with the different storefronts and several different types of seating available. Since we had never been there before we asked some questions about the options and the staff was very polite and knowledgeable. One of my favorite things to do is watch someone who is good at their craft, and I was not disappointed at James Coffee. You can even sit at the bar behind the counter and watch them all in action. The stores where not open the first time we went so we actually came back later in the day to go through the stores. I believe that I spoke with the owner in the James At Home Shop and he was very nice and helpful. You can really tell from the space and the quality of product that they produce that this is not just a job but a passion. I highly suggest stopping in and giving it a try if you are in the area.
I was in SD and finally stopped by this location. The first time I went (Saturday ~9am) it was very busy but I got my order in a timely manner. The second time I went (Sunday ~8am) it was pretty empty. I got a cappuccino and butter croissant and both were good! Definitely check it out.
Craft coffee and espresso beverages, plus an indoor 'open air' arts collective.. AND a barista class space too!!
this place is a one stop shop you could stay at all day..
Their roasts are phenomenal, can't wait to try their Huehuetango (guatemalan)
Super fancy, but very tolerant eclectic vibes makes for a great co-working space 🤌
We went on the Caffeine Crawl this morning and got to try and experienced the Chemex Coffee in James. The tour guide did a full demonstration of how to make Chemex coffee. It was amazing to see how temperature, grind… effects the results of the coffee. We loved the coffee very much. It is super delicious and flavorful!
I stopped by to get some decaf beans, but I must say I am impressed by this place. Situated in a old warehouse, it shares space with some other cool shops. While getting beans I decided to try their decaf mocha with oat milk. Normally I would add sugar when a mocha is not sweet enough, but this one was so good I drank straight. It was pulled perfectly, and mixed well with a good quality chocolate. They don't use paper cups anymore, so either drink there or get their reusable jars. I support this initiative as it is better for the environment.
