Crema's Take

Rude Awakening's warm, cozy vibe and genuinely kind staff make it a natural gathering spot for regulars, though quality can be inconsistent—matcha drinks in particular seem to miss the mark. The coffee flight is a solid choice if you want to explore their roasting, and the late hours make it a rare downtown option for evening coffee runs. Stick to their traditional drinks and pastries rather than expecting niche beverages to land perfectly.

What to expect

Specialty coffee. A slow-sit, quick-grab, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu. Open late.

I love this cute and cozy downtown coffee shop! My best friend and I have been here a few times, but last night we decided to do a late night coffee run. We ordered the coffee flight and each one was delicious! I also appreciate how they’re opened late!

I thought the hot chocolate was way too sweet. I also got the “ chocolate disk as recommended to make the hot chocolate richer. It is a marshmallow with a thin layer of chocolate- stuck on top of your hot cocoa- not good in my opinion. Staff was very nice and the atmosphere…
