I like the atmosphere and service and tea but coffee is really bitter and strange. They just need to change that brand o coffee, whatever it is

I was visiting for work and opted to stop in here for my morning espresso rather than my typical franchise coffee run. I’m so glad I did! The coffee was great, the potato quiche was local and the best I’ve had, full stop.
Bagels were awesome too! Lisa was so kind and knew almost everyone else there by name. Such a great spot. I highly recommend a visit!

Mega church funded, tax exempt, uses proceeds to fund homophobia. Kalamazoo doesn’t want you here.

A fantastic place for a coffee drink or fun dessert. Interior is amazing. Wish they could get a new location with a view as it would be supreme.

Need to update hours online! Got here at 9:30am on a Saturday from out of town and closed. Sign on door says Saturday 11am-6pm. Hours on Google need to be updated. Very disappointing.
Great coffee and the cutest shop! Employees are super sweet! The parking garage nearby has free parking for an hour and cheap rates after the hour is up.

Such an incredible place! The people are so kind, friendly, and helpful! The prices are perfect for the quality of drink you get. Overall, the atmosphere here is very chill and light-hearted. It's my favorite place to come and write.

BEST COFFEE PLACE ON THIS SIDE OF MICHIGAN. I am a decadent coffee fanatic and as someone who lived in NYC, the creations here are better than some Manhattan cafes I've been to! If you are a cold foam girl this is a must!!!!
The biggest specialty to me is their custom cold foam, they can make any cold foam flavor based of their syrups, which I believe they make in house I added an earl grey cold foam to my hibiscus latte and it was magical! The coffee is STRONG and not at all watery, it is super creamy and paired with the syrups it's perfectly decadent but not too sweet.
They also serve cold brew and nitro cold brew, and according to my boyfriend the matcha is decent too (paired with oatmilk is super creamy too.) They have a generous list of syrups (brown sugar, cinnamon, etc...) Not to mentioned the customer service is extremely friendly Haven't tried their food, but if you love a sweet coffee stop by!

The overall design of the coffee shop is unique. The colors are simple and modern, with slight funky spins here and there for decoration. It had a good amount of seating across the shop with a variety of different chairs depending on the type of hangout or work space you want. So, the interior place itself is rather nice with myself ranking it a 4/5 in itself. It offers a good variety of choices for coffee, tea, and even some canned beverages in addition to a varrying baked goods and food dishes. I've been to Matchhead many-a-time, and I've never had anything bad. I have tried things that weren't to my liking, but that's because I was trying something new, and I found out I didn't like it (for example, a cortado). Prices are decent as well. For what I ordered in the photo, it only cost around $10. Food/Price I'd also place around 4/5. Now, the real debate is the atmosphere. If you're looking for a hush place with good coffee where everybody is quietly keeping to themselves - the perfect place to hermit and read a book or do a bit of computer work without any headphones...I'd say Matchhead isn't a place you should stop by. The music is a selection of folk/pop/soft rock (Iron and Wine, Hozer, Coldplay, etc) that is a pleasant background, but it can still get pretty loud in there. People have conversation, as a lot of people know each other, and aren't afraid to display a hearty laugh. Currently, there are two women sitting 3 or so tables away as I write this, and I can nearly hear every word they're saying with good clarity. Personally, it doesn't bother me. There can certainly be rushes where it feels like everybody-and-their-mother is in the cafe and having battles to see if they can top the other conversations in volume, which can get a little annoying. In sum, if you're looking for a place to come and have a quiet worktime, bring some good headphones because depending on the day and hour, it may get pretty loud. Other times, it's a grand place to enjoy the sounds, background murmer of conversations, and watch the happenings on the Kalamazoo Mall out the window. Overall, 3/5. I've had days it's felt like a 5/5 - cozy, calm, quiet, nice - and I've had days it's been a 2/5 - loud, busy, slow, and chaotic. It's a toss-up, but certainly worth visiting a few times. Oh, they're all nice people, just a little noisy as an ending statement.
Nice atmosphere to work or chat with friends. Coffee and homemade baked goods are 💯
They serve some of the best coffee in West Michigan, Mad Cap! The people I have interacted with have been very happy and pleasant.
