Five Stars for Caffeine, Comfort⌠and Crying Less (Hopefully)
Stopped by Press Coffee â Biltmore yesterday to meet up with a friend and decompress from the emotional rollercoaster that is my love life (Beau, if youâre reading this⌠no, youâre not).
Right away, the staff was warm, welcoming, and fully committed to helping me find the perfect non-caffeinated drink because, letâs be honest, I didnât need to be any more emotionally charged than I already was. They guided me with the patience of a seasoned therapist and the charm of a barista whoâs seen some things. And the pastries? A full-on edible hug. I got two. For emotional support. Donât judge me.
The vibe inside? Cozy, classy, and just the right amount of ambient hum to drown out the sound of my inner monologue spiraling. Itâs the kind of place where you can have deep convos, write your novel, or rehash your last three situationships, all in one visit.
Will absolutely be back. Hopefully next time with a little less heartbreak and a little...
   Read moreMy first visit to Press Coffee wasn't what I was hoping for. After asking the barista what's popular, I got a shaker.

With that said, it's an interesting drink and I'm definitely going to go back at some point and try something different. It has a cool atmosphere that is great for working, hanging out or having a meeting (which I was there for). Maybe my next visit to a different location will...

I love pour over coffee and I found that press coffee is the best in town.
I stop by for at a cup and snack every single day. And I have already visited all locations in the area and everywhere everyone is super chilled and happy except barista in this location. (This barista is tall, have red and long hair and he is always mean and treat me the second time as I am nothing. And always telling me that pour over coffee will take to make at least 15 min.
Note to the owners: please change the parking sign where it says âat least 15 minâ because this morning I saw a security person walking and writing down the plates of all cars that parked there for longer period of time.
Thanks!
P.s. today I forgot my wallet in the car which parked at Biltmore area. So my cup of coffee was warmed up at microwave instead real fresh...
