Before taking a stroll through the neighborhood, on a beautiful morning, I dropped by to grab a cup of coffee here. To my surprise, I was met with such a passionate, knowledgeable barista (hopefully that is the proper term).
Addison was a pleasure to be serviced by. Iām a newbie to the world of coffee, and Iām kinda in the āwinging itā stages, whereas I go to a coffee shop, and just order what I see. However, today, I was taken aback by the well informed gentleman, who really took the time to educate me on some key points in the āworld of coffee.ā
I cannot quite recall some intricate details that were shared, to reference here, but I will say, Iāll begin to draw from my new knowledge as I continue on my coffee journey. One thing I forgot to ask ā if I should have enjoyed the coffee in its pureness without diluting it with a bit of cream & sugar?! I canāt say that I enjoyed the coffee, to fault of my own⦠however, next time, Iāll try it straight.
All in all, itās a great addition to the downtown area, and I look forward to my next visit. Would absolutely recommend to others that might be in the mood for a charming specialty coffee shop, with great...

The coffee shop was understandably busy at 8:45 am, but it would have been nice to be acknowledged when entering.

I stated, āI donāt like this at allā which was not acknowledged by the barista. Had I had more time I would have waited and gotten a new drink. Instead I left disappointed.
I had a better experience at the Ponce City Market location earlier...

I am a coffee/iced latte fiend, and try all locally owned coffee shops every where I go, but nothing compares to Spiller Park. The ingredients are freshly made from the caramel to their food- and the food is amazing!! I love a good avocado toast, biscuit with a runny egg, or grilled blueberry muffin.
The people I see everyday here are just as amazing and why I often find myself bringing my laptop to work remotely and stay all day. I felt like a āregularā after just a few days. Thank you to Addison, Kat, Ola, and Lee. They are just as excited to see me every day as I am to see them. They make the āmorning coffee runā experience the best way to start my day.
If you are looking for a great coffee spot/cafe, Spiller Park is where...
