Has great seasonal drinks and good cold brew. I spent an entire day working here from open to close and the entire staff is friendly and personable. Comfortable seating with many outlets and decently fast wifi for a teams meeting. Even a couch. So a few artists, real estate sales, and others just working like me. Music wasn’t too loud and just acoustic enough you could focus a whole day on work.
Always lovely staff, the prices are good and the products are stellar. The worst exp was not having extra napkins one time lol. It's becoming one of my absolute favorite coffee spots.
Ugh! The Red Roof didn't offer any type of coffee ☕️!!! And I need 😫 coffee in the morning! Soo, next thing I did was to use Google maps to explore coffee shops closer to the Alamodome. The reviews and pictures 📸 of the Poetic Republic Coffee Roasters really caught my eye 👁! Specifically it being close to the Vienna-style coffee shops I knew from Germany! Glad 😊 to have picked this one! Jorge was more than helpful. The coffee ☕️ was great and the quiche, just delicious 😋! It is made a little differently than a "usual" quiche, but oh, the flavors!!! And, they bake it themselves! CC was all over my plate! As you can tell, almost no crumbs left! 😀! Oh, free coffee refills, while you are there! Since I had more time to visit, I ordered their Cinnamon Croissant Roll, also baked fresh there! Yum, yum! Good for my tummy 😋! Cynthia did a great job of answering some of my questions! The ambience is just beautiful, encouraging you to either chat with others, to work or just read. I had the pleasure of chatting with Jorge and others! Loved ❤️ every minute I was there! Jorge, knowing that I had more time on my hands, recommended the "Cherrity Bar" as a stop, working my way to the Alamodome! More in my review for it! This little coffee shop is definitely 5-star, thumbs 👍 up gem! If you are in San Antonio, it is really worth a stop!!! 😀😋😊! A big shout out to Jorge and Cynthia!
Love this coffee shop! Great coffee, friendly staff, cute & cozy atmosphere. Their specialty drinks are superb. I got the BCS and it did not disappoint! Definitely visiting again.
Such a nostalgic aura that encompasses poetic republic. The barista Jorge welcomed me as I walked into the atmosphere and I felt immediately comfortable and at ease. The coffee here is absolutely 🔥, it’s not just made with quality beans and dairy, but with actually care and emotion; this is what keeps me coming. This is one of the only coffee shops in San Antonio that has authentic wood floor, yesssss, wood floors! This rustic feel allows for more nostalgic vibes.
