The most unique specialty coffee experience you will come across. Such a wide array of specialty coffee from all over the world, I love the co-ferments. The presentation of the coffee is super special and different. Highly recommend!
I love exploring coffee spots. The coffee here is not only good, but also fun. Came here three times and each time I experienced very distinctive tasting notes. Staff have been quite friendly and willing to explain.
Too bad I ate my food before I can take a picture of it. Hate it when I do that. Food is bómbice i had the mini breakfast bacon sandwich with an iced vanilla late. They take their time, love their craft and make a damn good coffee. The vibe and music choice makes a great atmosphere for getting some laptop work done.
This was the best little coffee shop. They had locally sourced, grass fed breakfast options. The avocado toast was amazing. I added an egg and it was the perfect start to the day. The coffee was delicious and way better than any big box.
Burnside Coffee Bar is a unique entry into the 916's crowded coffehouse scene. Picture a craft cocktail bar, but make it beans. This place stirs science, flavor, and precision into every cup like it’s a chemistry final you actually want to pass. Pick your beans and watch the magic unfold. Or you can sip a flight like you're wine tasting. And you probably want to! The flavors are wild, from Melon Creamsicle to Bubble Yum. BUT. If you roll up with a Dutch Bros sugar bomb or a drive-thru frappe mood, keep driving. Burnside’s drinks are slow-crafted with surgical precision — which means yes, there might be a wait, and no, there’s no unicorn caramel whipped rainbow nonsense here. The menu? Not exactly beginner-friendly, but the staff’s chill and ready to guide you through your bean awakening. The vibe is a little cyberpunk dorm room with a side of goth. Not the coziest or most aesthetic, but you’re not here for the furniture — you’re here for the flavor alchemy. And flavor? Burnside delivers. If you’re a true coffee snob (or aspire to be), this is your new pilgrimage site. How I break down my ⭐️ reviews: 1 - No. Not if it was the last thing on DoorDash. 🗑️ 2 - Meh. Maybe if I’m desperate, close, and high. 😬 3 - Mid. Not texting the group chat about it. 🤷♀️ 4 - Hella solid. Planning my next visit. 😋 5 - Shut up and take my money. Om Nom Nom. 🔥
