Cafe Steam at Two Discovery Square

"Cafe Steam is my favorite local coffee shop. Great space, great coffee. They partner with local Colorway Coffee Roasters to make the best local coffee, all served in a large, open space with tons of seating options. Parking is not great, but there is street parking and one of the city parking garages is only ~2 blocks away. I typically drink their light roast, single origin, drip coffee. They do have pourovers available, but they are 16oz and it's too much for me. They also have great rotating, seasonal drinks."

"Fast, friendly, skillful service. Alyssa, Mitch, and Austin are great!"

"There are several Cafe Steam locations in Rochester, all serving excellent coffee, but this location is my favorite for the wonderful atmosphere - the floor-to-ceiling windows are fantastic in the wintertime and provide a great place to study or have out of office meetings. If you're a Mayo employee, you should be able to access the Mayo network from this location. One thing I really appreciate is that the baristas are really friendly and helpful, and the people behind the counter are often the ones roasting the coffee at their local Colorway coffee facility. My tips: If you like drip coffee, come before 9am for a $1 coffee. Their waffles are excellent, and in the summer, try out their spiced Thai."

"My first time at this location, will definitely return. The staff was helpful, drinks were delicious and beautiful. Lots of quick grab breakfast items. We tried the giant biscotti with chocolate chips. I kid you not, it hung over the plate. It’s for sure a serving for 2-4. However, very good in my Macha The guest with me just had a light roast cup of coffee. Said it was VERY good, and she too will return. The area has to be amazing in the warmer months, great outdoor seating. The seating is ample with several groupings near the stairs. Lots of plug in for laptop and working. It wasn’t loud, so I’d you were trying to study- it’s a wonderful spot. Very large windows from floor to ceiling. I can only imagine how beautiful it would be to set with a cup of coffee and watch it snow."

"I have had both White Chocolate Moca’s and their medium roast coffee. Both are excellent. The Baristas are highly trained. The atmosphere is very relaxing with mild music playing."
