I don’t know James, but if I did… I would say congrats on making a superb shop of coffee. Excellent espresso with unique seasonal offerings. Very impressed by the strawberry latte. This place does glass only to go. Pretty cool idea but will cost you a 1.50 extra per drink.

This is a wonderful coffee shop. The people who work there are so friendly. I especially like that you can bring your own mug. ?

Located in a refurbished warehouse, you will find this little coffee gem and a few other shops. Honestly, I'm just tired of drinking coffee in a paper or plastic cup. I was served a cup of Americano in a ceramic cup, which was my absolute favorite part ❤. I see that people take their coffee to-go in a reuseable glass jar- what a WONDERFUL IDEA ? ?

I'm not quite sure how I feel about paying the extra $1.50 because of the "ecological earth environment no waste cup." And at the same time, the prices with paying for the glass jar are the same at café's with to-go cups. Meh, it's a toss up. Truth be told I will forget that the jar is even in my car or it will get broken in my car and I would have to continue to buy a jar. Such a quandary.What's not a quandary is I enjoyed the entire music track from CSI playing while enjoying coffee. Oh, and the coffee is good as well. Did you know that you can buy a deck of brand cards and play go fish while sipping cafe?Five stars because of "Bonsai." You will only get this inside joke at James Coffee and Bonsai will be apparent.Paid parking and even the meters are only up to 30 minutes. Moe's Coffee is 3 blocks northwest. Just add delicious, no extra pay and suitable free parking.

Great coffee, friendly service, variety of options+interesting flavours. Love the reusable glass bottles and the aesthetic of the place. Would come back for more!

I was so pleasantly surprised with this lovely little coffee shop. Located inside a little indoor food court/business area I wasn’t sure what to expect but I was blown away by the friendly service and delicious food and drinks. I also love their dedication to reducing waste. They have a glass bottle reuse program where your to go drinks are bottled up in reusable glass. We loved their pastries like the Yuzu croissant which was gorgeous and delicious! Their jalapeño and elote brioche was perfect for breakfast. The coffee was delicious as well. We loved the seasonal strawberry mint latte with actual strawberry puree in it!

Coffee and pastry selection are very good, everyone is generally pretty friendly. Walk over from East Village with my dog so she can get some zoomies out at the dog park beforehand. I have a great coffee shop 2 blocks from my apartment, but the coffee they use here has a much better taste.

Interesting location, inside a refurbished warehouse shared with some gift shops and a barbershop. Coffee was good, and their single origin Ethiopian was fantastic in a cortado. Tried a black sesame and lemon curd croissant, it was tasty and original. Nice staff

Good coffee and cool hang out spot. Only negative was the Mexican coffee flavor was spicy ish for some reason? Idk never had it taste like that at other places. But definitely recommend coming here.

Absolutely LOVED this place!!! The staff was friendly. The chai was amazing, and the fact they use little jars is unique in its own way. I can reuse them for my iced coffee. It's genius!
