South Side Coffee Co

"First, the food, I didn’t try because there weren’t any confirmed dairy free items so my review on their food is purely by looking and making a judgement call with half the information. Second, their service was attentive, friendly and quick. Third, atmosphere needs improvement, needs deep clean and some touch ups. Finally the coffee is not like the ⭐️buck ones but it has an enjoyable taste and makes you think if it’ll be worth coming back. There’s some dairy free options and I tried their pistachio, brown butter latte with oatmilk and I enjoyed it. But it wasn’t quite the coffee taste it was very sweet. Don’t get me wrong I liked it a lot. And now the; Why three stars? Well in my final checking account withdrawal there was an extra .10 cents charged when I signed for a balance that ended in .00 tip included. So that small error I am very very picky about. If misunderstanding double zero for a .10 is a difficult thing to do. Then the employees need a break, eye exam or something to better manage this place. Why is .10 a big thing for me because .10 cents are .10 cents. I have heard horror stories about companies taking .01 or .05 cents to thousands of customers and years later it was found it was fraud. Not a fan of that, I disapprove. And before you jump to conclusions no that is not what I am saying is happening but it is a possibility after their employees get their break, or any necessary adjustment to manage the bills in this place. To conclude, watch out your your final statement in your cards and save the receipts. BUT take a picture of your signature and your final total written because there’s no copy of that for you. I can’t dispute mine cause I signed and only took the receipt where is the charge of your order w no tip. Btw the picture is my order and I signed for a 10.00 as total. The other pictures are some of the things that are offered on site. I hope you enjoy this review, find it insightful and that your experience doesn’t match mine but that it can be better."

"Great coffee! Good study and socialization atmosphere. Typically, downstairs is more talking area and upstairs is more study area. However, the food is hit or miss. The sausage is microwaved, but if you avoid that and get their bacon instead it is pretty good! Overall, great seating (they have couches!) and atmosphere, but the price is a bit steep."

"Wonderful latte & espresso in a ceramic cup. Sat inside. Great atmosphere in an old historic building. Worth spending some time here. Super friendly baristas. I love this place."

"What a lovely spot for coffee. Tasty latte, be careful though, they serve their drinks extremely hot, I had to wait some extra time for mine to cool down. There are many options for places to sit, including a really nice upstairs area with a couch, chaise, tabes and chairs. It’s also very kid friendly with puzzles, coloring books, crayons, board games, and there’s even chalk outside. There’s a spot with jewelry, art and gifts made and sold by locals, and neat art on the walls. Love the chill vibe here."
