Stopped by for a quick coffee run, but unfortunately, it was a letdown. For a place that roasts its own coffee, I expected much better quality. Instead, I ended up paying over $20 for three to-go coffees that were absolutely terrible—weak, bitter, and poorly made. At this price point, there’s no excuse for subpar coffee.The atmosphere and location are nice, but the quality doesn’t match the cost. They really need to focus on training their Saturday baristas better because the inconsistency is unacceptable. Been to many coffee shops around the US. If you’re charging premium prices, the coffee should reflect that.Service: 1/5 | Atmosphere: 5/5

Great atmosphere and great service. Seating is available, but the place seems pretty busy. You may have a hard time finding a seat. Their coffee is very good.

While the service and atmosphere was great, the Rosemary Vanilla cold brew tasted neither at all like rosemary or vanilla, and the earl grey black sesame cookie only tasted like brown sugar. A bit disappointing since I was really looking forward to a good experience here, considering the price of the goods, a lot of good reviews and good word of mouth mentions.

Kind of hard to find decent espresso places in downtown so was happy to see Urbana was open and close to our hotel. The espresso was tasty and good vibe inside. Only knock is their syrups aren’t homemade, but everything else was great.

What a unique and comfy place! Has a feel of being transported somewhere but I'm not sure where. Like a mix of the video game BioShock with the band Zero 7. There is one employee who's been working all by herself on Saturdays and she still handles all the customers like a champ! Very friendly! Really delicious, fresh, hot coffees (many to choose), and their sandwich "The Herbivore" is one of the best I've had anywhere! The place is definitely worth a visit.

Popped in today while visiting the area and found this place to be a hidden delight. Teas were good, ham and cheese croissant was good but best of all the staff were great, friendly and super helpful! What a lovely place. Was a tad on the chilly side but on par with an unexpected cold snap. Lots of different kinds of seats with plenty of space. I favored the leather sofa.

Excellent offerings! Espresso beans are locally roasted, ground and measured for each drink. My cortado was perfect, my croissant absolutely amazing and Orian, my server, was really chatty and polite. Oh ans the prices aren't insane, they're actually reasonable. It's what a coffee house should be.

This was a neat spot to hang out and read a book with a hot latte. The food took a little while though - about 20 minutes and the iced coffee my husband got was quiet small for the price. With that being said the taste of the coffee was phenomenal and the bagel with herb cream cheese was top notch.
