Fav new coffee spot. Matcha is exceptionally good. All drinks are authentic and very well made. Really wish they served large sizes instead of one size only (I’m a big back lol). Highly recommend the Coconut Cream Dulce Nitro Latte but with Matcha 👌🏻 Also appreciate that they close late than other coffee shops. Parking sucks, especially on the weekends, but the matcha & coffee drinks are worth it.
Cafe Duro had one barista last night. He was super quick and very friendly! The coffee itself was perfect. I had a Coconut Cream, it was perfectly brewed. They had refreshers in the fridge I also picked up. Great place
The cutest little (emphasis on little) coffee shop. Feels like you’re transported to Europe when you walk in! This place gets BUSY. If you’re going on the weekend definitely get there early or you’ll be stuck in a long line. The coffee is good, but not worth standing in the weekend lines for - there are sooo many other equally good coffee shops nearby. I tried the Salted Caramel Pistachio latte on their winter menu, and it was DELICIOUS. Their winter menu is definitely a good one.
Ambiance: It is a very neighborhood coffee shop vibe. There is such cute decor inside but very minimal seating. I feel like the majority of people stand around or take it to go. The staff is not really friendly but the vibes were still peaceful. Mushroom grilled cheese: This was so yummmy!! The bread comes perfectly crispy and buttery. There were tons of mushrooms and creamy flavor. By far one of the best grilled cheeses I ever had. Banana horchata matcha: This drink was very sweet and good for people that dont like bitter drinks. I loved the banana flavor and it reminded me of banana bread. There was also a lot of cinnamon in the drink which made it so tasty.
Stopped by Café Duro for an Americano, and it was excellent — rich, smooth, and perfectly made. The coffee itself is top-notch, and you can tell they take pride in quality. The service, while polite, felt a bit rushed — the staff seemed overworked during the morning rush. The atmosphere is trendy and stylish, but seating is very limited. I only later discovered that there’s patio seating next door, which makes it a much better experience if you know to look for it. Parking behind the building was easy and convenient. Overall, a great stop for grabbing a quick caffeine fix when you’re in the area, especially if you’re after great coffee and don’t mind a quick in-and-out experience.
