Coffee Shops near Forest Park

“Food is very hit or miss. Usually around lunch time the food is nice and hot with a good amount of toppings, however in the mornings (especially during weekends) the line is a bit slow and the food seems rushed. Considering the rush during breakfast food is still fresh. One thing I had happen to me was I ordered a bacon McGriddle and my bacon was burnt with two of the smallest pieces you can imagine. Other than that this is my usual go to spot for a McDonalds.“

“We came here on a Saturday at 11:30 AM. The food, service and ambiance were top notch. We ordered the Shakshuka, Omelette and 2 Israeli sandwiches to eat. To drink, we got the the carrot and orange juices. Both delicious and freshly squeezed/pressed. The star of the show is the challah bread. Cheers !“

“Cincinnati hit the jackpot with Boosalis Baking! I used to jet off to Paris for work, trying every croissant spot there, thinking nothing could match up back home. But Boosalis proved me wrong in the best way!Their chocolate croissant (pain au chocolat) is the real deal. Seriously, it gives the famous spots in Paris a run for their money. And don't even get me started on their plain croissant—it's a close second to my favorite in Paris, Ble Sucre.Now, I can get my croissant fix without the long flight. Big thanks to the Boosalis team for bringing a slice of Paris to Cincinnati!“

“I love how this place just sends out good vibes as well as delicious coffee!!! My fav is the Mocha latte and every cup I receive a enlightened message that helps me continue thru my day. I love that this place exists and that you all exist ❤️? God bless you“

“The Madison Place was a very pleasant surprise we wandered into. What a lovely place!! Beautiful ambience and the friendliest people. We had a yummy lunch of melted cheese and Veggy sandwich on focaccia. My husband had a beef brisket sandwich and we shared a delicious blueberry scone. We got sodas but the coffee looked amazing. I was already at my limit so I couldn't indulge. But, the small was amazing. They're open early for breakfast and have lots of egg choices. A grand piano stood open for anyone to play and the coziness of the place was just screaming, "come and stay a while."“

“Everything about this place is amazing. The people, atmosphere, the food and drinks. There’s such care put into every aspect of your experience at Mom ‘n ‘em. From the kids steamer that is thoughtfully made to be warm, not hot (get the homemade vanilla!!) to the awesome coffee, to the croissants…most recently I’ve found that their housemade granola - and their house made almond butter! - are pretty much the best things ever. Literally every time we visit Cincinnati to see my parents we stop here at least once. So grateful this place has come to my hometown!“

“Bruh..had a chocolate dip, cake, doughnut with peanuts… may be the best doughnut I’ve ever had!Chicken strips, curl fries, very good! Very impressed with the food!The piece they need to keep improving is the speed of the operation. Seemed short staffed and/or just a bit slow. Several waiting around for their orders. It actually had me question (maybe I made a bad choice here!)But that Doughnut was special.“

“Birdie's is a delightful coffee shop. They have completely renovated a building that used to be an eyesore and stood empty for 15 years. Now it's beautiful!! Their coffee is absolutely delicious and they have pastries and gelato as well.“

“Food was good. I had the Turkey bacon melt which was good except they had used ham instead of bacon. Not enough of a deal breaker to send back. Fries were hot and fresh. Kiddo had 2 huge buttermilk pancakes. Ordered a side of hash browns (they were okay) and an excellent side order of bacon. Husband liked the breakfast bowl which was a large portion size.“

“The best coffee we have ever had! Perfect flavor for delicious seasonal drinks. Husband had the Bee Sting Latte (honey syrup with a warm winter kick) and no idea what the warm winter kick is, but is was the best latte I ever tasted! I opted for the Caramel Brûlée Latte and it was decadent!“

“This place was fantastic! They had a variety of cafe food, such as miso, pork buns, baked goods, cheese cakes, etc. After 3pm on the weekdays they offer a variety of Korean corn dogs! You won’t find them on the menu, but if you go in there will be a menu for them! They also have a huge variety of fresh teas, lemonades, and boba! The food was delicious and the prices are great, and they were super kind and service was fast. The establishment was very clean and handicap accessible as well. We will definitely returning soon!“

“I have been to this location a few times over the last few months, and today was another lovely experience! The barista was incredibly friendly and kind, and made a delicious americano. I got there right as the pastries came in, the blueberry danish is delicious!“

“I enjoyed my visit. Our lattes were a bit more expensive then at chains. At least we were served our drinks in actual cups. Very clean and cozy decor. The staff was really nice and made the coffee quickly. The coffee was real smooth with no bitter harsh tastes at all. A good cup of coffee for sure.“

“Park Pour is always a wonderful time. we usually come in for some drinks and maybe dessert. The evening staff is so absolutely wonderful and absolutely charming. Friendly and courteous, they are always willing to help their patrons where they can. The food items are always unique and fresh, and the drinks are creative and delicious.“

“A great little doughnut shop that I found on Google. The staff was friendly & accommodating & they had a pretty good selection for us showing up more towards closing time. Absolutely the muffins & prices are really good for this day & age. Definitely will be lifelong customers!!“

“This is such a nice place to grab a cup of coffee and hangout with a friend. The inside is decorated nicely and has plenty of seating space. I have only tried a few of their lattes but they have all been delicious so far. The staff are always outgoing, welcoming, and open to suggest new drinks to try.Parking can be a little difficult depending on time of day. They do have restrooms.“

“If you’ve had coffee in cincinnati, there’s a good chance the beans are from deeper roots! Consistently so good!! I usually get an iced oat milk latte year round and this morning was no different Exocet I added a ham and cheese crosstant to my order! They even wanted it up for me?Wouldn’t have a cincy coffee scene without deeper roots! If you’re visiting and traveling through would highly recommend grabbing coffee from them or any coffee store that uses their beans ?Parking: There is a parking lot to the right of the store front that is free to use for any of the surprising business in the area off Madison road! There is also meter parking out front that uses the cincy ez parking app!“

“I am a local College Hill resident and visit this coffee shop often. It is bright and airy with a boho modern feel. The coffee served is La Terza, which is one of the best local cincy roasters. Seasonal coffee drinks brighten up the mood with small food side dishes, including salads, pastries, and sandwiches, filling your appetite. Luminary is becoming a College Hill staple as I have run into many a neighbor there. They sell La Terza coffee in bags, which is convenient and makes a great gift.“

“I 100% recommend this place! I tried both a sweet and savory crepe and they were both AMAZING! I also tried a black sweet tea with boba and I will absolutely be getting it again. It was just the right amount of sweetness and the boba was perfect! Plus the staff is very friendly and helpful!“

“THESE DOUGHNUTS AND SWEET TREATS ARE SO DELICIOUS THAT THEY WILL MAKE YOUR TOUNGUE SMACK YOUR BRAINS OUT!!!!!!!!!!! NO OTHER DOUGHNUT SHOP EVEN COMES CLOSE TO JUPITER DOUGHNUTS. ALWAYS FRESH AND DELICIOUS AND THE PRICE IS VERY AFFORDABLE NOT OVER “

“One of my go to coffee shops. What is really nice about them is that any of their frozen coffee drinks, do not contain milk. They are coffee based. Love coming here and they send random coupons via email as well which is nice. They offer more than coffee but that's what I come here for. Highly recommend.“

“Great coffee! They were already sold out of their quiches and sandwhiches when I strolled in around 11:15am:( but was able to snag a slice of banana bread. It was good, but nothing crazy! Ordered an iced oat milk latte and it did not disappoint! All together it was $9 for both items, not bad! Loved the glass that they served it in and with a compostable straw as well! Lots of tables but for someone who chronically forgets to charge her laptop, not enough plugs around the tables :/ there was a good chunk of people already here so I think those tables might have the plugs ? I couldn’t tell because I didn’t want to stare.If you need a stimulating place to work while getting computer work done, there are paintings and art work all around to enjoy and to even buy! As well as lots of locally made items that would be great to give as gifts!“

“Highlander grog and a hot chocolate with no whip. It's amazing how we don't even have to order, the friendly and reliable staff already knows what we want. It's delicious, inexpensive, friendly, cozy, local, and NOT some big chain like Dunkin or Starbucks. You won't regret going here.“

“Tom thank you and your lovely wife for such a delicious savory treat. I highly recommend anyone reading this to stop in and give ‘em a try for a not too sweet brownie but filled with awesome flavors from raspberry to oatmeal and many more. Absolutely refreshing to be able to actually taste the flavors and not just loads of sugar!! I was supposed to take a picture of the brownies I purchased but I ATE THEM !Parking: Spacious area“

“Hands down one of the coolest little coffee spots I’ve ever been to.Just passing through town and was surprised by the interesting layout of an old house converted to a coffee shop. The welcoming staff and environment are great.Not to mention an amazing menu full of different unique sandwiches.Highly recommend.“

“Super excited about this place being in Hamilton ! Been in a few times and love it. The decor and vibe is amazing ! We have been there when it was busy..and got our drinks fast and the atmosphere was exciting but relaxed. We had Virginia as our bartender...and loved her professionalism..very upbeat .fun & friendly. The drink menu seemed creative and the drinks I got were beautiful and good. We will definitely be back and will bring friends.“

“Great coffee shop. Lots of comfortable seating. Decent Internet access. The breakfast sandwich on a ciabatta roll was pretty good.Coffee was good, although I like mine a bit darker than their standard cup.Atmosphere was good, but two different music sources was a bit annoying. Simultaneous Pink Floyd and 80s pop was a bit much.“

“Some of the smoothest hookahs I’ve ever smoked. Always amazing service and I never have to wait on coals. The staff are attentive and friendly. Definitely recommend to those looking for a chill spot to study or vibe with friends. The mint tea is delicious and you can’t beat the prices. Definitely my regular hookah spot hands down.“

“Stopped in today to grab a cheesecake for my ole ladies bday because her favorite is cheesecake. Kids got some stuff (peeps, and bday cake batter cheesecupcake) and I picked up a brownie cheesecake. Okay yeah this is by far the BEST CHEESECAKE I have ever had in my entire life. Hands down.“

“All around excellent service the owner is a very nice young woman I hope her business succeeds the food items they make are exquisite the flavors don't overpower each other and the sweets are not rich at all like some can it was a very pleasant experience for the first time here and hope more to come“

“The first time I went I asked the difference between two drinks and not only did the barista explain the difference between the drinks he made other suggestions based on those drinks so the next time I went I got his suggestion, the avalanche, and it was so good! Every time I come they are so fast and so friendly. Couldn’t recommend enough.“

“I applaud this as above and beyond for a coffee shop , first time in Tuesday 11/21 evening and the house blend drip ? is phenomenal. Service , quality , price and location A+ Dark long haired girl very kind , very respectful, great communication ? ? Thank You!!! Now I know where I'll go before work!!!!“

“Awesome sauce. Great healthy teas, shakes and more. So happy it's in walking distance of my house. Your health is priceless. Sam and Charlotte are wonderful. Great decor and energy. Support your local businesses and make healthy choices, all in one. I had the Cherry shake with protein powder. Yummy....“

“Today was my first time trying Shepherds Ground! I got the double chocolate hot coffee with oatmilk and a blueberry muffin! They were both delicious! I went inside and ordered, not realizing that they had a drive thru also! The place was very nice and clean and the service was very friendly and polite! I definitely will be going back again soon. Thank you!“

“The doughnuts are light and airy. We had the glazed twist and cinnamon sugar twist. Yummy reminds of an old school doughnut shop. We found the shop as a last minute passing by and thought we give it a try. It was late in the morning so he sells out quick but we had was delicious!“

“This place has all the coffee shop essentials on the drink menu, with some other interesting flavors, and lots of "refreshers" for non-coffee drinks. I went with a plain cappuccino with oat milk (their oat milk is made in-house; it had an interesting flavor and a little more texture than your average, but it was pretty good). The espresso is pretty decent quality, too. My lady was a fan of her caramel latte. They have a couple breakfast sandwiches on the menu, a large selection of paleo primal donuts, some bagels, and muffins. The vibe is chill, and the couch I lazed on all morning was comfy!“

“I’ve only been here twice but I was so impressed both times. Their iced coffee isn’t watered down like every single other cafe I’ve been to, and they are sweet without being overly so. Their croissant sandwiches are sooo good as well, and the prices are decent. I hope to come back tomorrow as I’ve been craving it for a while.Vegetarian options: I got an egg and cheese croissant sandwich and was very satisfied :)“

“My nephew invited me to join him for coffee at Sidewinder Coffee. This was an establishment that I had never heard of before. Now that I have been there I highly recommend it for quick meetings. The atmosphere is comfortable, well lit, and they play music. (Jazz at first and then metal. I asked if they could return to jazz and thankfully, they did.) The coffee was delicious, hot, and could be flavored with various additives and creamers. If you are in Northside and want to enjoy coffee and conversation, the Sidewinder is just the place!“

“I enjoy stopping by here for a tea whenever I am in the area! Teas are super fresh and not too sweet. My favorites are the strawberry oolong and mango oolong! Parking is easy, inside is cute (love the idea of the photo wall), and staff is efficient with making my tea. There is something for everyone!“

“I feel bad as I don't remember the specific name but it was a super tasty old fashioned. I stopped in with my BFF after ordering a sandwich at another location at Factory 52. I have been here before and got a yummy coffee. If in the area I would be happy to come here.“

“From the well-crafted gelato to the perfectly pulled espresso, every element of this dessert was executed flawlessly. If you are a coffee lover looking for a sublime, coffee-infused treat, I wholeheartedly recommend indulging in an affogato.“

“Macarons were not perfect but tastes good. The need to be a bit more hard outside. Ordered a bag of 6 macarons, americano coffee and a chocolate croissant.Tiramisu- tastes great,Belgian chocolate- great,Raspberry - good,Orange mandarin- good,Red velvet- good,Pistachio - it doesn’t taste like pistachio it is more cherry flavor.“

“Friendly staff a nice cafe environment. I got a chai latte which was good a lil watery but adding sugar helped. This place not only has a wide variety of food like different sandwiches, Panini, etc.. They also have wine and different things so I will definitely have to come back and check out more things I would recommend to others because the staff was friendly and then environment was very nice.“

“We have always had a really good experience anytime we have been here. On our last trip, Mikey went above and beyond to be sure that we were able to enjoy a delicious drink despite a lot of things being out of stock. We sincerely appreciate the kindness and great customer service given to us every time, but especially on our trip from Saturday. Mikey, you're the real MVP, the drinks were DELICIOUS, and Im sorry I entirely missed the out of stock sign right in front of my face. ;)“

“While I dislike the setup of the drive thru and parking lot, they always get my order right and as quick as possible. Christina is consistently my favorite one here. No matter what she is always cheery, her customer service is outstanding, and she’s a great team player. After over a decade in the food & bev industry, she is the kind of employee I love to be taking care of me!“

“They're so quick and kind. I found this place recently on my way to work and now I stop in as often as I can. this honeysuckle latte is so good, and there's never a bitter aftertaste. you have to try it hereParking: its right to the right of the store, nice free st Bernard lot. I've never had an issue getting a spot before.“

“It's Dunkin. There's barely a bad experience unless it's a specific location. There are a couple, I won't mention.I usually order in the app and go through the drive thru.This Dunkin is one of the better choices.They will make your coffee right every single time, like they read the tickets on the cup or something, I don't know, magic.“

“Food can be inconsistent but that is the charm of it being a local place and not a big chain restaurant. When it's good, it's really good. It's going to take you longer than you think in the drive thru. On average, expect to wait 10-20 minutes from pulling up to pulling out of the drive thru. I give it grace because it's part of our community. If you go in with this mindset, it'll make the experience much more positive. If you go in expecting something more than what it is, you're gonna be disappointed. I hope they stay in business for a long time and continue to improve their technique.“
