Mnemonic Coffee is for the alternative milk crew, they only serve oat and almond milk, and honestly it works because they do it really well. We ordered two cortados with oat milk, beautifully balanced, silky, and finished with latte art that tells you the owners are truly talented. The vibe is cool and calm, and you can feel the skill behind the bar, especially when they’re pulling great shots while managing stacks of drinks without things slipping.

Above and beyond service. I don’t drink coffee but the barista made a tea latte for me out of the Gold Yunnan loose leaf tea and it was amazing. Super well decorated inside, with local art that’s for sale on the wall.

This is an intimate coffee shop in both size and community. The staff seems to have a close relationship with each other and regulars. We got one of our favorites (cold brew) and it did not disappoint. It had chocolaty notes and was a great price as well. Not only did they have glasses for the cold brew but a glass straw as well which I personally really appreciate. The quirky almost retro diner vibe with tile coasters, and a nice fall color palette. Overall its a great spot to grab a coffee and im sure we will be back.

This place is so good! I live down the street and I highly recommend this coffee shop! Whatever you get, from a vanilla latte to their chiaroscuro, you can’t go wrong! I highly recommend to try their seasonal drinks, they are the best! If you go in the morning, you must order their pastries and burritos because they go fast! Look out for small collabs with local vendors!! Just by seeing their latte art, you know these are experienced baristas!!
