Ella Coffee (Food Truck)

Coffee shop

👍 When we walked up at 1:30 they said they were closing although online it said they closed at two. They said their machine was hot and since it was a hot day not a lot of people were coming through. When we started looking for other trucks, they changed their mind and said we could order. The owner w...

Mitalena Coffee

Coffee roasters

👍👍 I was a fool for buying my coffee at a grocery store considering Mitalena is right in the neighborhood. Ordering online is easy and they grind the beans to your specifications. I’ve been forced to switch to decaf and Mitalena has made that switch rather painless. I can’t say enough good things about...

👍👍 Very neat coffee shop. Love how it’s shared with the Fourth & Nomad clothing store. It’s all kinda just one building. Feels like your in a clothing store that randomly serves coffee. The ambience is kinda cool. Good service, indoor and outdoor seating. Neat little spot!

It was to sell me another coffee & then call building security to escort me out of the...
