Crema's Take
“Black Coffee and Waffle Bar builds its reputation on creative waffles (the gluten-free options get genuine praise) and friendly staff, but the kitchen is consistently overwhelmed—expect to wait well over an hour for food even with a small party, and drinks tend toward bland. Multiple reviewers mention dirty tables and sticky chairs alongside the long waits, suggesting the place struggles with both speed and cleanliness when busy. If you're patient and ordering their signature waffles, you might enjoy it; if you want quick service or solid espresso drinks, skip it.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and pastries on the menu. Family friendly.

I am gluten-free and every time I come to Fargo, I always stop by black coffee and waffle bar. I ordered the fat Andrew gluten-free waffle. Absolutely incredible. I’ll definitely be back.
