Prufrock Coffee Company

Chill vibe, quiet (when I visited), a great place to have a tea and write for an hour. Really great service!

My wife and I learned that not only does Prufrock have good coffee, but they’re also run by EXCELLENT people. We punctured our tire on the way to get some coffee, and managed to pull into their back lot. Their owner saw us out there struggling to get the flat off, and left the shop (which was super busy at the time) to come out and help us.
I saw this photo on their wall while waiting for my coffee. Big thanks to them for being a light that day!!

The barista was very patient with me and was able to offer suggestions.

I enjoy going downstairs and working, reading, or doom scrolling while I have my coffee.

The seasonal spice bomb was surprisingly pleasant and not overwhelming.

I recommend going downstairs and utilizing the space there if you work remote.

Cool space. The top floor is usually busy.

I do wish it was easier to form a line at the checkout area.

This is the most expensive coffee shop I have ever visited. I always order a quad shot latte with a syrup and oatmilk and have never paid more than $8 at a time. My fiancé got the same drink as I did and for it to come out as $23? No food or pastry, just 2 lattes. That is insane. At Ascend coffee, my exact latte costs $7-8, not over $11. The cup size here was maybe 10oz, tiny and it was not anything special. I had been here once before and ordered the same way to try and see if it got any better and it didn’t. For this shop, I had asked for a hot, quad shot latte with oatmilk and ube syrup both times and it seems like the baristas they have are not experienced because they assume a different syrup without confirming before making. I ended up getting their specialty Ube mango tropical latte when I specifically said just ube. There’s a lot to improve on here. Highly recommend this place work on their pricing and probably train their baristas more with communicating and understanding the register especially when their tiny sized lattes aren’t worth over $11 a pop. On top of this, their atmosphere is not ideal or even welcoming. It is quiet and I mean quiet. No music at all- the silence is deafening. It feels almost too uncomfortable to even talk to someone in there because everyone would hear. People have been saying since the shop switched ownerships, it has gone downhill. I can 100% agree. We will not be coming back.

Hip Cafe with some unique offerings make this worth a stop. Baked items also available.

Great location. Street parking.

The coffee is good but the lattes are hit and miss sometimes. I think it has a lot to do with who is working. Otherwise great location for caffeine and chats.

For a few times in a row now the place hadn’t had a cold brew or drip coffee available. The counter is a mess and shows that the barista isn’t organized/prepared. The product does taste good but I’ve been disappointed by the service and availability a few times now which appears to be the regular for the place.

New owners gutted this place. Severely understaffed, creative drinks replaced with Instagram bait, all the charm gone.
