from Google"Undoubtedly the best espresso AND service in coffee. Loren asks all the right questions and will not let you leave with a drink you don't love. Having experience with coffee makes me picky as hell but she does not mind at all. A couple of my favorite drinks so far: 1. Matchalato with vanilla and espresso chip gelato 2. Lattelato with vanilla and smores Gelato 3. DIRTY ICED CHAI IS THE BEST IVE EVER HAD! (Spiced it up in the fall with pumpkin syrup or pumpkin gelato)"
"First time having a Portuguese Coffee ☕ super delicious and had deep dark flavor I love.... I couldn't help but notice the tequenos absolutely mid blowing fresh and delicious gooey stretchy cheese... Great addition to the neighborhood"
"This isn’t just a coffee shop that happens to sell gelato—it’s a coffee shop that sells coffee with gelato in it. When I first heard about this place, my curiosity was definitely piqued. I’ve tried affogato al caffè before (the classic Italian dessert of gelato topped with espresso), but what I saw on their social media looked a little different—iced coffee topped with gelato. I ordered a small Matchalato ($10) made with oat milk, vanilla gelato, and hazelnut swirl, plus a scoop of chocolate gelato ($7) and an Argentine beef empanada ($5). For the empanada, I had the option of corn or wheat, and I went with wheat. It came stuffed with ground beef and onions and I thought it was pretty good. I appreciated that they warmed it up in the air fryer. The chocolate gelato was rich and creamy—solid, though not the best I’ve ever had. The Matchalato, which is essentially a matcha latte topped with gelato, was the highlight. You can pick any gelato flavor, but I played it safe and got vanilla. The gelato gave this drink a velvety texture and enhanced the matcha flavor by tempering the bitterness of matcha. Maybe next time I’ll be more adventurous and try pairing it with something more unusual like their salted caramel chocolate pretzel gelato—something to look forward to. Overall, this place puts a fun twist on coffee and gelato. Definitely worth trying if you’re looking for something a little different.

"A hidden gem of the neighborhood. First I want to bring attention to how aesthetically pleasing this shop looks. I love that for a coffee shop they have so much variety, including empanadas! My favorite is the Pan de Bono, totally recommend. Lastly, their idea is so unique. I have not seen in the area, coffee with ice cream and it actually taste amazing. If you have not tried it is a must!"
"I have never felt so personally taken care of or welcome in a cafe like I did in Coffeelato. Loren was so sweet and knowledgeable, telling me and my friend all about where she sources her gelato and snacks from. I had an absolutely delicious empanada. One of the best I’ve ever had. The cafe is obviously becoming an institution in the community. Loren takes the time to get to know her customers and makes seriously delicious drinks! I had a chai with cardamom. My friend had a s’mores affogato. I cannot recommend Coffeelato enough."
