This beautifully repurposed church is a relaxed coffee house, serving tasty food and beverages. I went to see a friend's art... exhibit, tastefully hung around the former sanctuary amidst the tables. There's also a large outdoor seating area. Read more

It's been 55 years since the revolution started right up the street. It's surreal to look up the street where it all began,... while having a mighty good time at The Congregation. This is a pleasant space indoors and outdoors. Awesome vibe. Good time!Great meeting spot. Gazebo and deck. Picnic tables with umbrellas. Bring you lawn chair if you want. Read more

Blessed. The Congregation is a place to give thanks for ????. A former house of worship is now a cafe by day and a bar at... night. The food is heavenly and healthy. Many tasty options and many plant based items. The interior is quiet and peacefuland the outside space is both a deck and a friendly backyard. I think my favorite thing was the restroom lock code 12345 whichfor some hilarious reason is a secret. Read more

(Plant-based reviewer) This place was amazing! Beautiful, unique building - it just had a really great feel to it, I'm guessing... because it used to be a church ???? I had the chickpea sandwich which was delicious. I heart dill and they use an excellentmulti-grain bread and fresh lettuce and tomatoes. They also offer a veggie sandwich and avocado toast which I look forward totrying in the future. They have a full coffee bar with plenty of milk alternatives, as well as a fully stocked bar. Love thelarge, beautiful outdoor seating area! Highly recommend this spot. Read more

Great coffee shop. Plenty of indoor & outdoor seating. The coffee is delicious & they had good pastries. We had the cheese/ham... croissant + raspberry muffin, both were great. Looking forward to going back. Read more

A historic church turned into a coffee shop/cocktail lounge. Great atmosphere for locals to chill and vibe indoors or outdoors.... Kid friendly, with a space for children to play with toys. Love the art in the space, decor, menu options, summer events andfarmers market. Like that they feature local djs. Great place to catch up on work, read a book, or to grab a solo cocktail. Solodating safe atmosphere. The carrot cake was my favorite. Read more

Very interesting place! They have a large outdoor sitting area available, but since the weather was cold everyone was inside.... Large variety of people enjoying themselves in many ways. People gathering with friends drinking coffee or having a drink, solopatrons reading a book or studying, people grabbing a bite to eat. Good vibe throughout. The owners really invested in thishundred plus year old church, as it look beautiful. Found the staff to be not very friendly. Stood there for a while waiting forsomeone to take my order. Prices were average. Definitely would like to return in the warmer months to see what they have goingoutside. Read more

Awesome coffee and amazing food. We went there around noon on a Saturday and it was busy but we still got seats. We ordered... toddy, spicy mocha latte, salmon bagel and Brie with bread. The food was amazing! This place used to be a church and theexterior is still intact. The interior has been well-preserved as well and you can still see the organ and the stained glasswindows. Overall, an excellent find! Read more
