This place is awesome. Bang for your buck coffee and if I have a rough day ahead, I need to swing by here to get it started. I mean that in terms of (I know no one will set my day on a weird path here, and the coffee KICKS).

All the workers and even the new guy and GM are great. Here’s my take — if two coffee shops are near each other, I’m going to the one with better service (it isn’t about the coffee at that point) and this one is the one 10/10 times.

Not a fan of the old guy who runs the front desk, though I wouldn’t let him taint my experience there. I do not appreciate his treatment towards the needy / homeless, though that’s his own issue.

Thanks guys for consistently delivering some awesome jet fuel grade coffee:))

Cozy little shop inside the Lawrence House lobby, a really solid coffee/tea option. Great service, one of the better espressos I've had in the neighborhood.
Will be back for sure!

I like calling the Heritage Outpost and The Lawrence House my productive, secret space. You can have coffee and be productive with your work, phone and or laptop in the lobby.

Amazing coffee spot. I got an iced latte that was so tasty as well as a Danish pastry and it was so yummy. I really enjoyed it.

Loved the seating vibe, and the Blueberry Jasmine Latte I ordered was so good.

very convenient and nice place to grab a little coffee while walking around uptown or waiting to catch the bus. Service is always fantastic, and the seasonal drinks are a treat

My go-to neighborhood coffee joint. The baristas are always warm and friendly, and the coffee is solid. Never had a bad drink or experience here. I believe they source their pastries from Sweet Rabbit and their coffee from Intelligentsia.

Perfect stop for a quick coffee in a gorgeous building. I met a friend here and sat in the shop long enough to feel out the vibe. It was a good time.
The coffee was exactly what I needed it to be, and I could see myself getting coffee here regularly. It seems the neighborhood agrees. There was a consistent stream of people grabbing coffee to go, and service was very quick. There was never a sense of the space being too loud or too crowded despite the number of customers.
Seating was mostly barstools at a counter, and so this may not be the place to work for the day. It was a great place to have my morning coffee, wait a few minutes, and spot cute dogs on the street.

Great spot for coffee and pastries.

Had a pastry, which was pretty good! The biggest downside was that the front desk attendant at Lawrence House was extremely unwelcoming. I had just arrived at the lobby catching up with a friend, and he immediately confronted me about needing to buy an item at the coffee shop in order to stay. I completely understand that and more than willing to comply. However, he stood right by me, almost staring me down, then accused me of having an attitude. I did not appreciate that, and made the rest of the experience unpleasant. I’d love to come back in the future, but this experience is making me think otherwise

Great nearby stop with solid options for ordering online. Very friendly baristas. Minimal seating in café itself but lobby of adjoining building is serviceable.
