Crema's Take
“Taste Coffee in Mason is a charming, vintage-styled spot that feels like a home away from home, with plenty of cozy nooks for solo work and spacious tables perfect for catching up with friends. Their in-house baked goods and house-made syrups pair beautifully with their thoughtfully sourced espresso-focused roasts, while the genuinely friendly staff takes real care in helping you find your perfect cup. With ample parking and a welcoming atmosphere that keeps regulars coming back, this is exactly the kind of specialty coffee destination worth seeking out between Lansing and Detroit.”

This place has so much charm! There are so many cozy areas to settle in and do work, or large tables to catch up with friends. The vintage style of the place was very nice, service was very attentive and they bring the drinks to you. Didn’t get to try their bakery items or food other than their breakfast burrito but even just that tasted great! Edit: Went there again with a friend in the morning and it was an absolutely lovely experience!! There was so much community and I got to try their bakery items which were absolutely delicious!! I think this is going to become my go-to spot now!
Best coffee shop in all of Michigan! The staff is wonderfully friendly and always helpful when asked any questions about the menu! I would highly recommend anyone who loves coffee to try this location out! I always get a hot caramel latte and it's not too sweet and not too bitter it's right in the middle. Thank you guys again for being great!
Lots of parking and lots of space in the coffee shop. My favorite part were the pretzels. The cinnamon rolls were okay, a bit lemony. The coffee was average. If you want a quiet place to focus on homework or meet with someone this would be a good spot. Could use a bit of upkeep with the building maintenance.
It is such a darling coffee shop. They bake in house and use their own syrups. A wonderful hidden gem!! Worth visiting if you’re heading out of Lansing and going to Detroit. I’m from out of state, so I can’t come back for a while. But, I will tell my Michigan family to come visit!
In my experience, this is now a favorite coffee shop of mine, and I will be going back. The coffee was delicious. Taste Coffee is using a delicious roast which rises above most others. While being flavorful, it was smooth and easy on my sensitive stomach. I loved every drop of my unflavored latte. Oh, and the pretzel and dip are worth it. I guarantee. I also enjoyed the scone. The atmosphere was as decent, considering the building is soon to be demolished from being old and in need of repair. They seem to have promising plans for an impressive new construction. Sometimes, the environment is noisy though and not a good vibe for hanging out. Don't wait though, what they have now is charming in certain areas. Being just a few miles off the main town of Okemos, I will easily make the detour. The young staff is 💯. You will not get served with the same love anywhere else in the Lansing area. Everyone I met was sincerely joyful to be working in this very special coffee shop.
