    Everything about this place is great. There were a lot of things I didn't even know I was missing from other cafes until I came here! First of all, the menu is diverse and unique, including their syrup flavors. There are a decent amount of flavor combinations, but what I love is that each drink has a list of all of its ingredients! I hate when I just see "Snowman Latte" or something and I still have to ask what's in it. I got a flavored latte and avocado toast. Everything was made VERY efficiently, especially considering it was just the owner! I never felt like she might not have remembered part of our orders. Plus, she writes on your cup everything you ask for so you know it's right! The prices were very good for what we got. The space is very comfortable and interesting. The seats at the bar are also very comfortable. I feel like most aren't. There was adult coloring, music playing, and it was decorated for the holidays with what seemed like meaningful, family decorations. Everyone was very nice and welcoming, and it seemed like many had established relationships with the owner.

    Attention all coffee lovers! ☕️ We stopped by Iconic Coffee Shop and couldn't wait to share it with you! This hidden gem specializes in traditional espresso drinks, pour-overs, loose-leaf teas, pastries, and small bites. Their espresso drinks are out of this world - the perfect balance of bold and smooth flavors. The coffee was so good we went back for seconds on our way out. Oh, and our quick bite was to die for!

    This place is amazing in every way! The staff is so helpful in deciding what you may be looking for in taste. I’ve ordered plenty of lattes and can say they are absolutely delicious. The pastries are a good size and you really get your money’s worth. I live nearby and stopped in several times and happen to chat with the owner each time, such a sweet woman. You don’t feel rushed out at all.

    Great selection of things you can't find elsewhere in the area. First visit today and had one pour over and one cold brew. Both were made great. They also have homemade pastries and small bites that go well with their coffees. The owner took plenty of time to answer any questions we had.

    Great coffee shop. The cappuccino was bold and smooth with the perfect balance of espresso and steamed milk and the avocado toast flight was delicious! Cozy atmosphere and friendly staff making it a great experience overall. Highly recommended.

    Beautiful little shop. The owner is super sweet and the coffee is delicious. There are a bunch of options and a welcoming atmosphere. I can’t wait to come back to relax and try more of her drinks!

    Quite possibly my favorite coffee shop ever (and I've been to quite a few). The ladies that work here are the best! There are always flyers and pamphlets for local businesses and events. It's a great way to find out what's happening around the area. The food is good and the coffee is excellent. The vibes here truly are Iconic.

    The Guatamala was one of the all time best cups of coffee I've had. The owner is so friendly and personable. She's knowledgeable and I love that they brew locally-roasted beans (Fresh Ground). One of our stops now when heading up 47.

    Great coffee and food. I’m hooked on the loaded bagel! Staff is great, and shop has a great vibe, a must if in the area.
