“rigtig god mad, og fantastisk service“

“I passed this place for 3 years, assuming that it was just an efficient subway-adjacent spot. I popped in during a frigid December day and was delightfully surprised by the warmth and character of the space and the neighborly interactions between the baristas and customers. The drip coffee was great and the cookies delicious. The small space is a model of efficiency - it was fascinating to watch the three workers negotiate a tiny workspace and a steady crowd with ease. I've added this spot to my rotation of morning coffee spots.“

We came from NC and after visiting Puerto Rico several times I was so excited for this experience! She was so patient with us!

With only one other helper, she never showed any frustration and provided excellent above and beyond customer service! The cashier with her was brand new and super sweet as well! Camilla even gave me a hug when we left! She made my whole morning! And gave us the absolute best breakfast recommendation as well! Thank u so much Camilla for your grace and kindness this morning.

Arthur changed my life. his wire framed glasses fit his face gorgeously. i die for his kindness. thank you for EVERYTHING blank street on lafayette.“

“This place is quiet for working and enjoying coffee and chai lattes. After spending the majority of the working week for months here at Olas, the baristas have always been consistently neighborly and friendly. Love the cups made by a local artist as well. ❤️“

“Great spot! I got a strawberry milk tea with Boba and loved it, the Boba was fresh and the milk tea was delicious! I will say that the milk tea was on the sweeter side and had more if an artificial strawberry taste, (which I personally like) but if you don't like that kind of taste maybe get something else, there is an option to get get less sweetness as well. I really liked it though! The server was really nice too! Also, random but the ice was really tasty for some reason. 🤷‍♀️😅“

“my first time here, the food was great and presentation of food is delightful. will definitely go back“

“Really cool cafe! The decor is really cool, loved it a lot. Service was great, everyone is so kind and patient with explaining anything if you have questions. I got the iced banana latte, and it was described to me as a milkshake with coffee - I would totally agree, it was delicious! I definitely recommend this place.“

“Excellent family friendly cafe 🍵Recommend the chai masala, lavender donut and rose elixir matcha! Follow @maria.angelspear for more cafe gems ☕️🎀✨“

“The coffee was fresh, rich, and perfectly made, and the atmosphere was cozy and welcoming. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made me feel right at home. It’s a great place to relax, work, or catch up with friends. I’ll definitely be coming back again. Highly recommended!“

“The taste was good, and I enjoyed my drink. However, if you prefer unsweetened coffee or tea, be aware that the menu is very limited in that regard. They didn’t have regular iced coffee or plain unsweetened tea when we visited—most of the drinks were on the sweeter, more specialty side. If you’re looking for simple, less sweet options, it’s something to keep in mind before you go.“
