Meadowlark Coffee & Espresso
1624 South St, Lincoln, NE
Crema's Take
“Meadowlark is a genuinely beloved Lincoln institution that goes far beyond serving excellent specialty coffee—it's a welcoming gathering space where queer folks, creatives, and professionals all feel at home, backed by a team of baristas who actually care about crafting drinks tailored to what you need. Their commitment to sourcing quality fair trade beans from regions like Peru shines through in signature creations like the Aztec Mocha Latte, and the space itself showcases local art while remaining perfectly suited for a long work session or meaningful conversation over pastries and light food.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu.
