Nice atmosphere. Seems like it might be a little cramped if it was busy, otherwise it was an interesting place. Wonder what it was in a previous life; it's a pretty old structure. A guy at the counter said he thought it might have been a warehouse for the railroad.
I always see Decade being one of the best coffee shops in Lawrence. I finally decided to try it and was a bit disappointed. I love the building, the atmosphere, etc but I wasn’t super impressed with the coffee. I got a shaken l espresso and a cold brew. The cold brew was 4/5, but the espresso had a lot of coarse grounds in the bottom. I’m a big fan of some fines, but this was crunchy and I didn’t even finish all of the drink.I also got a vanilla caramel steamer and a pastry. My kid was a huge fan of both! I will be back soon to give them another try since they are so highly recommended.
The iced chai was good but a bit weak. The grilled cheese was better than the egg sandwich. The muffin was as tough as leather.
Decade is everything a coffee shop should be. Reviving an old building into a nice gathering place for engaging conversations, it is LGBTQ friendly, and uses products and decor made from recycled and sustainable materials. It provides a peaceful and productive environment for work or socializing, with both indoor and shaded outdoor seating.It is the best place in Lawrence for a great cup of coffee or espresso made by skilled and knowledgeable baristas. The small selection of food I’ve tried has been excellent as well. Try the warm cider bread with sweet butter for a tasty morning treat! ? ELFK ?
Quiet cozy little coffee shop within walking distance of the main strip. It was not a very big room, but I never felt crowded and was able to hold a conversation without feeling like I was disturbing nearby patrons. I got a cold brew, which was delicious. I would certainly return to this coffee shop.
Decade continues to be my favorite coffee place in Lawrence and has been for years. Somehow they get it perfect every time and the environment is perfect for studying or catching up with friends. Can't recommend the place and all it's staff enough
One of my favorite coffee places in Lawrence! Amazing coffee and baked goods, and it's in a really cool old building. If you go to Decade you have to go right next door to Jungle House, a shop specializing in both common and exotic houseplants!
Great coffee and a kind staff! If you’re coming to study, please note that there are not very many plugins.
Although they offer food, the menu is very limited if you're looking for a meal (we were there for lunch). I would return for coffee and pastries.
They have delicious and sweet espresso; I recommend the cafe latte.
