Melo Coffee & Kitchen
696 University Ave, Rochester, NY
Crema's Take
“Melo strikes that perfect balance between serious coffee craft and neighborhood gathering spot, with consistently smooth, well-made lattes that keep regulars coming back weekly. The seasonal menu shines through in both the coffee and kitchen—their avocado toast is legitimately exceptional—while the corner window seating and thoughtful decor create the kind of welcoming vibes that make you want to linger with your laptop or a friend.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu. Wifi.
