Crema's Take

Buddy Brew Coffee at Armature Works has built something special around genuine hospitality—baristas like Garrett, Ana, Mo, and Hanah consistently greet customers with real warmth and care, even during the rush. Whether you're grabbing a quick iced coffee before yoga or settling in for a slower afternoon, they nail both experiences with espresso-focused drinks, carefully crafted pour overs, and cold brews that keep people coming back, plus their homemade pastries like chocolate chip banana bread and oatmeal raisin cookies are worth lingering for. It's the kind of place where the team's personality shines through as much as the coffee itself.

Buddy Brew Coffee at Armature Works is consistently excellent. They’re a great team, and we honestly love this group. Everyone is friendly and welcoming, even on the busiest days. Garrett, Ana, and Moe especially stand out — they remember our orders and always make sure you love your drink. Shout out to the “moe-matcha!” We work nearby and go often, and the quality and service never miss. Highly recommend!

This location deserves a much higher rating! The baristas are always kind and prepare drinks quickly. Their chocolate chip banana bread and oatmeal raisin cookies are delicious! I often say that cafes either get baked goods or coffee right but never both - even at my favorite spots. Buddy Brew slam dunks baked goods and lattes!

Buddy Brew Coffee is a good coffee shop located in the Heights Public market. The ice coffee was nice overall.

I was able to get me an iced coffee before my yoga workout this morning so that was a plus because even though the line was very long, it moved very quickly and my drink was ready immediately! That was pretty cool. I will definitely go back for more coffee and even try the juices that they offer. I would also like to try the food that they have but for now I will just stick with the drinks.
