I was impressed with Lemonjello’s when I first moved here, but honestly, the 205 is the best in town. Incredibly fun rotation of single origin coffees, wickedly knowledgeable and friendly baristas, great location.

this is hands down the best coffee shop in town! I’m not a huge coffee person & I have no knowledge in it but the staff never makes me feel bad for that. they’re always so helpful with helping me find something I’d enjoy! you can tell everything here is made with nothing but pure love! from the taste to the atmosphere, this entire shop is filled with a unique type of love and comfort. not to mention the waffles are beyond amazing. the owners of this shop have seriously blessed our community with such a local gem!

I had a lunch meeting with a potential client here and it was a 10/10 experience. The coffee was great, the staff was kind and even explained the menu for me to get me exactly what I wanted (I’m used to an iced caramel macchiato at Starbucks and have NO coffee knowledge) so I definitely appreciated that and learned a lot! The environment was very clean and upbeat. I highly recommend to anyone who loves coffee, a great atmosphere, and those who want to learn more about coffee! A downtown holland, mi staple!

This is truly the only coffee shop that I will never stop talking about! Not only will the coffee be the best you have ever had in your life, but add a Nutella strawberry waffle and you are in for a treat! Also the staff are some of the most amazing people I have ever met. Shoutout to Vanea and Kenzie, they are two of the kindest people I know. If you have the time you need to stop by and get you some 205 coffee trust me you will not be disappointed!

205 used to be a nice place to grab a cup of coffee, meet with friends colleagues, and get a little work done.

Apparently that is not the case anymore. When I stopped this morning, I purchased a coffee and sat down. I moved a small sign on the table I was sitting at and started to pull out my computer. A woman behind the counter loudly yelled at me across the room to put the sign back. Only then did I notice that the sign forbid me from using electronics in the restaurant.

I have no idea what the purpose of the interaction was, but it was deeply unpleasant. I wouldn’t suggest going there anymore, unless you like getting yelled at before 8:00 am. Very sad to see when so many small food service businesses are really struggling.

Food was delicious and it's a lovely space for a coffee date with friends. The only thing I didn't love is that the prices aren't listed on the menu boards, and only after I checked out did I realize it was all quite expensive. Waffles + coffee for two = $40

This was our first of many visits to come. Great coffee with excellent service. The seating, wifi, and complete vibe were on point to hang out with your coffee and friends. Our do a little works on the ‘wall’ where each table has an outlet for charging.

We ordered the avocado waffles, expecting to have actual avocado and not avocado spread, no salt, no taste, and very expensive.
Would not go back.
Definitely not worth the $40 dollars we spent for a breakfast.

Such a great experience here. Came in for a Togo coffee and bagel, in my short time there the staff was so personable and friendly and had real conversations. I am obsessed with this place - worth the 30 min drive! Definitely will be back.
