My top spot for Thai Teas and Thai coffee The bomb burritos not to be passed up on. I honestly can't get myself to try anything else cause they are so damn good. Great prices, fast service and veri cute!

I don't drink coffee often but this spot is great!! The staff is so nice. I'm strictly gluten free and have been glutened by coffee syrups more times than I'd like to admit. Cafe on 1st is super accommodating about checking labels when I ask and even let me look at them. Anyone with food intolerances knows how awesome that is and we appreciate it so much! They even have some gluten free pastry options but I haven't tried them. Reasonably priced (for not being a chain) and they particupate in the square point system so you get points. Definitely check it out!

Their dirty chai is really really good! I also love that you can self service by ordering on the kiosk, makes things easier and less stressful.

The food and coffee are pretty good overall but the kiosk ordering system is a pain. If you’re ordering something very simple it takes a lot longer for the consumer and you’re missing the human interaction. The kiosk ruins the vibe of the rest of the coffee shop and feels very corporate/Starbucks.

Great place to have brunch. The food was healthy and delicious. The sandwich was big, and I could not finish it. They have some outside tables and chairs suitable for sitting on a nice day.

Imagine the hippie scene of Haight Ashbury days in San Fran? This place captures that vibe. It's a neighborhood staple in Salt Lake's "Avenues". While its not the architectural eye candy of many coffee houses, the coffee is good. Cafe on 1st doesn't roast thier own, yet offers a variety of coffee roasts & tea.

Great spot, great staff, decent prices. Spacious and open, great for studying or working, they had a lot more meal options than I thought. Would come here again.

Great place. All around just so welcoming. Got the bomb burrito and it was delicious, and twice the size I was expecting it to be. This is a sweet little shop in the avenues, and I sincerely hope they stick around forever. Bonus points for playing relaxing jazz music!

I really hate the new trend of ordering on iPads. I get the it’s maybe useful for the store, but I hate it as a consumer. It turns a nice ritual of saying “I would like a coffee…” into a complex process that makes me feel like I’m at a corporate chain. This is a shame because the vibe at the restaurant otherwise is very relaxed and feels like a nice local coffee shop, but honestly ordering this way really kills it for me :’(

Perfect Sunday morning coffee stop! The employees were very helpful and made excellent recommendations when we told them our coffee preferences. They have plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, and plenty of chill vibes to go around! We’ll be back very soon to try more of their menu.

Our favorite coffee shop so far in Salt Lake City. The London Fog is fantastic. The veggie sandwich is the best! Espresso shots are amazing. Ambiance is cozy. Love this place!

I wouldn’t recommend the food. We tried bagels, sandwiches, and smoothies. The smoothies were okay, but didn’t seem to have any real fruit in them which was disappointing for the price. The sandwich and bagels were just plain bad. Hardly any cream cheese (even though we paid extra for it) the meat in the sandwich was all balled up in the middle (not spread evenly), and the bread was soggy because there was too much sauce. The place is in a very cute area and they have a decently large menu, but prices are very high for the quality and the vibe inside was off.

This was my first time in at cafe on 1st in a while. I think it is worth noting the changes. You have to type in your order instead of verbally ordering from a human. My easy order turned longer and impersonal. Not my vibe. Also, half-and-half is an additional 10 cents. I like a heavy pour of cream, which wasn’t an option.

Hot chocolate was fine, but don’t order the breakfast burritos. You will be sad.

Awesome local spot. Fair price. Nice atmosphere. Friendly baristas. Comfortable seating and music. Easy to order. They have food but I didn’t eat any. The espresso was solid. Would recommend.

This is such a cute little cafe, and it's located in a great spot. The coffee is delicious, the atmosphere is welcoming and warm, and the house sauce is SO GOOD. I recommend the turkey sandwich with the spicy ranch!

I really love the casual atmosphere here. Very few of the chairs are fat friendly though, so keep that in mind when you are dining in. Also there is a crack in one of the red Adirondacks out front. It may dump you on the ground

Filling breakfast! I had a decaf mocha too…

I used the qr code outside to place my order. Their site said it would be at least 15mins, so i choose the option to text me when it was ready so that I could take a quick nap in my back seat. 🙄 After my power nap I looked and hadn't received any texts about my order that I had placed over 30mins ago, so I went inside to investigate. The girl asked me if I had an order to go and then gestured that it was sitting on the counter. I asked them how long it had been sitting there and let them know that i never received a text. Their response was that they brought it outside and didn't see anyone (which was not the option I picked). I never got a clear answer to how long it had been sitting there, but I can say that everything was cold. My entire life I've been working in customer service, and at least a decade in restaurants, and I can not believe that they didn't just offer to remake everything right then for me! I wasted $30 and my time, and had to eat cold food and drink cold coffee because of their mistake. I chose this place because it had close to 5 stars, but I won't be going back.

This is Home away from Home for me. I've been a patrion for the past 10 years. Mr. Tong and his family are the Best at making you feel welcome and heard while supplying you with your coffee or tea needs. Highly recommend you enjoy this avenues coffee house

Used to go here all the time. Loved interacting with the people that work here. They were so sweet. They loved my dog too. Just went in today and stood at the counter to get my order taken... The guy behind the counter didn't even look at me... I waited. I looked down at the blue screen that said "tap here to start your order" and realized I was expected to put in my own order. I had difficulty finding what I wanted and had no way of communicating about allergies or anything... Not one word from any staff member. So I left.

This place is an awesome shop that has amazing food and good coffee drinks. Only loses a star through the somewhat confusing ordering process, where sometimes you will order directly from the attentive staff, and other times through the kiosk that are located at the counter. The food is awesome, providing a selection of great sandwiches and cafe fare for decent prices.

This has quickly become a regular spot for me. Excellent coffee and food items. The staff is lovely and gives the best service. Highly recommend.

Best mocha latte I’ve had! Great food love the bagel sandwhich and the breakfast burrito. Also very cool art my boyfriend and I came in and he bought a new piece for his room and it looks so good.

Great all around. Even better than I remembered it. I was asked what roast level I wanted for my coffee (Light, medium, or dark). Just had my orange juice freshly squeezed in front of me. My two food items were amazing. Definitely worth spending a little extra on our local cafe, than you would fast food because this truly made my day. Thank you for the amazing meal :)
