Chic coffee shop! My kind of style, gas town vibe. Coffee is strong!!! But good. Aesthetic is nice, definitely photogenic. Kind of a creative scene, there’s a second bigger room where people work, the main room is the nicest and has little booths to sit. One of my fav coffee shops in downtown. Their coffee cups are pretty small. I ended up getting 2

We first visited Revolver 5 years ago, and we finally came back for a visit in 2024. The vibes have continued to be stellar. Coffee tasted delicious, and they offered a selection of fine espresso options for your drink. They have added a tricolate bar for guests to engage in the brewing process, which is a plus from my perspective. We will definitely return.

Had to try the espresso flight! It included only two different options which I was slightly disappointed by, but the milk-added options really made a difference in changing the flavour and adding to the experience. Worth coming in for, just like I had expected. I also appreciate when cafes offer free water, you’ll need it for the espresso flight! And make sure you walk around to the other side, there’s a lot more seating behind the wall but it made not be obvious when you first come in. Loved it and look forward to returning to try more espressos!

The signal in this cafe is not good and the wifi is quite slow. Cappuccino is not too bad, just okay.

Awesome spot! Dark atmosphere and cool layout. The coffee is great and baristas know what they are doing. Very inspiring if you are an artist and just like unique spots. Definitely one of my fav spots in town.

I heard many good things about this place, and it was worth paying a visit. I tried their pour-over, and it tasted really good! I wished I could make coffee like they did. It felt like a good place to chill, chat, or work for a while. Will visit again when I'm in town.
The coffee is good but I’m just extremely disappointed because I had a gift card with $20 that they couldn’t put through. After one of the baristas asked me how much money was in it and i told them. They were very kind and told me sadly the gift card was too old and there was not much they could do but they would give me my drink free(which was on a $1 dollar promotion) and took my gift card. Since the line up was building up and I never want to bother a customer service person who might not be able to help I took my coffee and thanked them. I sadly don’t think I’ll be going back anymore. But again good coffee and the baristas were very kind when trying to find a solution

They’ve always got something unique on the menu. This place feels like my happy spot to enjoy a bright, flavorful coffee.

This place was recommended to us by our waitress from the night before, who said she used to go there for coffee and banana bread. So we decided to go here for our morning coffee. I didn't like the coffee much but the banana bread and lemon cake -- the only food on offer and clearly marked vegan --were both very good.

Supreme coffee experience. Got pour over from some of my favorite European beans, DAK, tasted great. Music, atmosphere and location is supreme too.
