“This is a place I'll definitely keep saved for any future visits to the area! Great variety on the menu for all tastes. The pancakes our large enough to share and looked fluffy delicious. We went for lunch and the 3 of us ordered a burger, huevos dish and a rueben. Everything was fresh tasting as well as yummy to the eyes. The servers are friendly but the cost was incredibly reasonable to this Californian. Quaint & delicious.“

“Best bread in the valley!“

“I live in Colorado and never heard of Alpha Coffee. I visited Salt Lake City, and friend recommended we meet at the downtown location. I ordered an "Aztec" and it was great. Something different, new and tasty for me. I liked the drink, the vibe and the servers ... the whole experience was great! I look forward to my next visit to SLC. I'll stop at Alpha again - to try the Poly! :)“

“Love love love this sandwich shop.. I'm from New Jersey and it's hard to find a really good sandwich shop in utah that compares..it's top notch!“

“Love Sugarhouse Coffee! My favorite local coffee shop.“

“MiaoMiao Cafe is such an amazing spot for cat lovers! 🐾 The space is super clean, cozy, and welcoming, and the owners are so kind and clearly care deeply for their cats. The café and cat house are in two connected houses (separate spaces), and you can bring your drink inside when you visit the cats. All of the cats were sweet, playful, and cuddly you can tell they’re well-loved. They even had kittens available when we went! Just a heads up: not everything on the food menu may be available, but honestly, the coffee and drinks are 10/10, and that alone made it worth it for us. We didn’t get to try the food this time, but we’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for a fun, relaxing, and heartwarming experience!“

“Absolutely delicious coffee and breakfast bagel. Love the vibe of the place. Feels like home!“

“Overall nice atmosphere, nice space. Service was good.“

“I sometimes will crash at local coffee shops to get things done for business, but they're so loud and cluttered that it really takes the whole focus out of me. eats is by far the most relaxing and chill place to get things done! especially since it's so close to the universities, it's the perfect spot for anybody who needs not only yummy and healthy eats, but yummy brews too! highly recommend!“

“Absolutely amazing donuts!“

“Having the ability to grab a super yummy smoothie made with high-quality ingredients to refuel after getting your butt kicked in a spin class is brilliant. Not to mention the protein muffins… the pumpkin is *chef’s kiss*. And to top it off, you have owners who genuinely care about their community and their customers in addition to an attention to detail that comes through in both the product and the employees.“

“District Coffee Co. is one of those places that's easy to become a regular at. The coffee is consistently excellent, the staff is friendly, and the atmosphere is perfect for relaxing or getting some work done. I ordered the avocado toast along with a honey lavender latte, and both were outstanding. The toast was fresh and flavorful, and the latte had just the right balance of sweetness without overpowering the espresso. If you're looking for a local coffee shop with great drinks, delicious food, and welcoming service, District Coffee Co. is definitely worth checking out.“

“Overall nice atmosphere, nice space. Service was good.“

“They were the best coffee around until a month ago they raised doubled there prices and I not some coffee grounds to take home and one to go out was horrible the coffee wasn't fresh I had my friends try it they said it tastes just like Kroger instant coffee and I agree it's easy cause I was going 5 times a day for my friend in wheel chairs to get coffee we spent 300 to 400 a month there and to come back to this after I moved away back to Starbucks is all I can say I bragged how great there coffee was I'm broken hearted“

“I am a tea drinker so was excited to try this place and I was not disappointed , It was clean and the staff very friendly. I will be going back to try the other wonderful flavors they have!“

“I love the strawberry yogurt :)“

“Best coffee in Utah. I hadn’t been into coffee as much UNTIL I tried Urban Sailor’s coffee. I’m hooked! Bye Starbucks, forever! I’ll be supporting my local brewer from now on, not only is it tastier, it’s a family owned and operated business, love that! (I also really like their chai tea. I enjoyed the option to make mine more spice than sweet, making it on point!). Random but, have you seen their video with @KeanuReeves? 😍“

“Always have a great experience at Coffee Garden. A 9th & 9th fave. AAA+“

“This is simply the best cappuccino I’ve ever had. The ambience is amazing, the art on all of the walls is excellent, and we enjoy your time here every Wednesday morning at 1,000,000 cups where Julio provides the best handcrafted coffee for all of us with a smile.“

“Publik Space was the perfect event space for our concert. They were easy to work with, the ambiance was incredible, and the location was easy to access. Looking forward to future performances there!“

“WE ARE IN HEAVEN!! Coffee and EXTRAORDINARY TACOS!! TACOS ARE LIT!! 🔥 Tortillas that melt in your mouth and sauce you just want to drink because it’s so delicious!! We are taco snobs being Texas natives from San Antonio and coffee snobs!! It’s a hells yes from us!!!“

“We come here almost every morning and it’s always a great way to start our day. The coffee is great, but the best part is the service. Every staff person is absolutely lovely and always so kind. I feel so fortunate to have this place in our neighborhood!“

“Solid 4/5 star coffee shop. It’s a fun vibe, I like how it’s small and quirky. The drinks were good, nothing special though. They only had one roast to choose from, and the staff was fine, not very fun and bubbly like your typical coffee shop. Not sure that I’ll go back, but definitely in a fun location and worth swinging by if your a block or two away.“

“I would make sweet love to their sandwiches if it wasn’t socially frowned upon. Get the spicy chopped cheese and fries. You won’t regret it!!!“

“FANTASTIC breakfast croissants & caramel macchiato!!!“

“🙋🏻 Grateful to Rawtopia for a delightful 2025 New Year’s Eve dinner, surrounded by warmth and served by such kind-hearted staff 👍“

“Forty-Three Bakery has the most amazing pastries and desserts and delicious breakfast too. My lemon poppyseed scone had the perfect crunch. My vanilla latte and my husband’s chocolate London Fog were perfect to the last drop. Need to find out the secret for the yummy eggs too. Such a wonderful Sunday brunch treat. The chocolate, rosemary, and huckleberry pinecone is my favorite chocolate dessert ever. It’s like cracking open a delicious Easter egg when your fork cracks open the delicate chocolate shell. The best customer service too. Got some treats to go for work tomorrow!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“I cannot say enough good things about this place. The owners and workers are incredibly kind, the food and drinks are FABULOUS and the atmosphere is so cozy and unique compared to the other coffee shops in Salt Lake. Genuinely one of the best lattes we’ve had in the area and you have to try the lemon Thai tea!“

“This is going to be a long review. When you first walk in you are met with a delicious aroma of fresh bread, and pastries. The staff beats you with such sincerity that you feel like your family. I had called to put in a large catering order Tuesday afternoon right before closing; Wednesday was a holiday and I needed it by Thursday morning. They had everything boxed up ready to go…. Only for me to realize the coolers I bought were not big enough for a box. They offered to repackage everything into smaller boxes. The smaller boxes worked perfectly. While I waited I ordered the Turkey, avocado, bacon sandwich. I can honestly say that was the best turkey avocado, bacon sandwich I have ever eaten. As I write this, I am thinking of how delicious that sandwich was and trying to convince myself that a 50 mile drive for a sandwich is a bit much. The turkey was a thicker cut, juicy, flavorful, and it had that Thanksgiving roasted flavor to it. The bacon Cooked perfectly, not too crisp so you don’t chip a tooth , and not underdone where it is chewy. The avocado was fresh, and it was ripened to the perfect stage. The sandwich also contained some lettuce, and a dressing, which was delicious. All of this delectable goodness placed on fresh bread. The bread had a perfect crunchy outer crust While the inside was soft. The bread itself had an amazing flavor to it with all the seeds and nuts in it made a perfect sandwich. I will write a follow up after the party tonight. It will include photos.“

“Great staff! Great coffee! Great food! Can’t get better! (Could have more seating haha).“

“Service could’ve been a bit faster, I waited a while for food and even more so to eventually check out. Nonetheless, the food was so good I’m still giving 5 stars. I appreciate that they call when your table is ready because the wait can get pretty long.

Food is so fresh, I watched as my orange juice was made from fresh oranges.
So many flavors in each bite. Highly recommend.“

“The best peanut butter paprika cookie!!!“

“Friendly drive-through employee!“

“The food was amazing! I ordered the Road Dog, vegan omelette with chilli inside. I could only eat half of my meal! Nice to have another vegan friendly spot in SLC!“

“Lovely spot for good coffee and feeling of community. Great music and even better service.“

“Amazing Red Bull frappes and great owners. Always stop by when I’m in town.“
