Reviews for Coffee Emporium in Cincinnati, OH
Nice place to get a coffee. Great for outdoor seating, and nice area to grab a coffee and go on a walk. You'll have to parallel... park, but it's not too bad. Read more
Right across from the Mushroom house! Great coffee. Parking is non-existent, expect to walk a block or two... but it's through... an EXTREMELY beautiful neighborhood (drive through it if you're a fan of architecture and/or old homes) Read more
I love this coffee shop! This particular location is best visited on a beautiful day so you can take advantage of their large... patio, since there is little to no seating indoors. The patio in the back is nice and shaded by large trees and lushgreenery. The side patio has multiple tables with umbrellas and super comfortable. There are also some tables in the front,right next to the street. Just perfect for people watching. Coffee is great. My favorite drink is the Brew Hoo (Half coffee andhalf chocolate milk). One of my favorite coffee shops in the city! Read more
I have been going to Coffee Emporium for years now and have had nothing but good experiences. Only to be let down and be treated... unfairly by this business one Sunday afternoon. I arrived to Coffee Emporium right before they closed and got to the doorexactly at 4:00 PM. At first I tried to open the door but it was locked. I was confused because I had no idea they closed at 4pm and should have checked beforehand. One of the workers putting things away looked through the glass and mouthed to me ?sorrywe?re closed?. I had no issue that they were closed, and just walked back to my car. As I am in my car looking for anothercoffee shop to go to, my boyfriend and I witness this Caucasian lady with a stroller walk up to the door not realizing they areclosed as well. As we sit there, we witness her look at the door and flail her hands up theatrically disappointed they wereclosed. Someone comes up to open the door and very happily takes her order. We see her hand the guy the money and soon after shereceives her drink. The concerning thing for me is the fact that Coffee Emporium decided that it was okay to pick and choose whothey decide to serve based on how the customer looks. I feel like there was an unconscious bias happening in deciding who gotservice in that moment. I do not understand why me arriving right at 4 pm causes me to 1. not only get no one to physically comeup and talk to me, 2. Not place an order BUT when a Caucasian lady comes up to the door minutes after me, she gets served withgreat customer service. Truthfully I am beyond disappointed in this business. I have contacted the manager about the issue andtalked to Sam/Samantha (said manager), and was told that their policy is no one after closed gets served and would be contactedback, after they looked into the issue. I gave them about 1 to 2 weeks to get back to me and still no response. This just provesthat they do not care about certain issues and favor a specific clientele. I will not be retur Read more
I moved away from Cincinnati a few years ago, but this still remains one of my favorite coffee shops! I love the indoor space as... well as the outdoor. The most recent visit I got to bring my puppy and he did really well in the provided shade. I?ve hadseveral of their drinks and pastries and have had only positive experiences! I also came here to study while I was in collegeand they have a great atmosphere for that as well when they?re not too busy. Read more
Best dessert coffee drinks we?ve ever had. Had the iced mochas 3 of the 5 days we were here. They are that damn good. I?m sure... their hot coffee is great too, but only had the dessert. So phenomenal! Most are standard iced mochas, but this? this stuff issomething exquisite. Read more
Expensive - Yes. Quaint - Yes. Local - Yes. Tough to find a parking spot - Yes. Bottom line lovely coffee well worth the price... and the trouble. Phenomenal service and a Cincy gem. The espressos remind me of intelligentia of Chicago and wow, they have aquad espresso. Read more
My favorite coffee shop in Cincinnati! Their coffee is always consistently good no matter what you get. They also have great... service, yummy bites and a cool atmosphere! ????? This is also my favorite location. It's inside of an old house with a largeseating area upstairs and there's a really neat patio out back with a rad viney pergola. Read more
