I'm done with this place. For years, we have ordered a breakfast sandwich at the bakery next door, then had coffee at Hyde Perk while we awaited our order. Today, a surly young server noticed we had a buzzer to let us know when our order next door was ready and said "We don't allow outside food or drink in here." We had neither, of course, because we were drinking Hyde Perk coffee while we waited for our to-go order from next door. I can't stand this kind of attitude, so we will never go there again. And we have told this story to at least a half dozen friends today, all of whom are regular and share our feeling about the attitude. Done with this place.

I’ve always loved the welcoming atmosphere at Hyde Perk, which makes this recent experience disappointing. My husband and I ordered sandwiches and drinks there and also brought a cookie from Certified next door. We’ve done this before without issue. While we were sitting and eating, a staff member loudly announced, “No outside food or drink — it’s written on the door — I’m going to ask you to leave.” It was embarrassing, especially with the café packed. I understand enforcing new policies, but it should be done consistently — other tables had outside items and were not addressed. We had ordered almost everything from Hyde Perk and simply had nowhere else to sit. The interaction felt unnecessarily public and harsh, and unfortunately didn’t reflect the warm, local coffee shop atmosphere I’ve always appreciated.

I will have to say, this little coffee shop is dope. I finally got a chance to make my way in today and I'm happy I did! It had a very old school vibe to it. I love the setting, the decor and most of the all, the coffee. The sweet gal behind the counter took my order. It was hard not to get mesmerized by all the goodies they have on display while I was ordering my drink. Cake pops, scones and muffins. They all looked so tempting! As hard as it was not to grab thick slice of the loaf in front of me, I just stuck with my iced sugar free brown sugar cinnamon breve. I chilled at one of the big tables while I was waiting for my drink. It gave me a chance to absorb everything about the coffee shop. I love the big mural of old school Hyde Park. I adore the books along the wall for the kiddos to enjoy. It was great seeing people out and about. People laughing and enjoying their company and drinks. It's honestly one of the dopest shop I have hit up. The second barista was sweet and handed me my drink. I chilled at the big table and enjoyed my first couple sips. The espresso is strong! You can taste it. I did add a packet of sweetner, I like my caffeinated beverages on the sweeter side. It was just what it needed. My breve was absolutely delicious. My drink was creamy, flavorful from the SF brown sugar cinnamon syrup and the sweetner helped with the intensity of the espresso. It was so good. I have been to quite a few coffee joints in town and I like a lot of them. But there's something about this shop that is so different from the rest. It's in such a neat area. The shop has such a charming vibe to it. They pushed out a great product and the staff was super nice. I will most definitely have to take a detour to this joint before heading to work downtown. It would be a great way to start my day.

I really enjoyed hopping on their wifi and getting some work done. The service was super friendly and the atmosphere felt roomy possibly too a high ceiling?? The only thing I thought was mediocre was my carmel lattè. It just felt lacking in boldness and sweetness. I dont particularly like sweet flavors, but the coffee was just missing "ahhhh"-aspect. I went to a different local coffee shop yesterday and got the same drink, and it tasted like it should... delicious!!
