Cutest little coffee and pastry shop in the National Hotel. Super cool vibe amazing coffee and the cookies were to die for! Favorite was the butterscotch oatmeal and sea salt chocolate chip!

This place was the perfect little stop for drinks and a bite while walking around downtown. We went during Christmas time and the seasonal tea drinks were phenomenal, the vibe was cute, and sitting at the window looking at the downtown buildings and lights felt nice and cozy.

I visited The Gilded Acorn while on a work trip and a few of my coworkers and I were needing a coffee shop to talk over our upcoming presentation in downtown OKC. I am very glad that a coworker of mine said we should go here. My first impression upon walking in was that the atmosphere was very bright and uplifting while also being somewhat unique. There was plenty of seating when we visited which was around 10AM on a weekday but unfortunately not many outlets. I ordered the dirty chai latte (pictured) and thought it was really well-made with a healthy portion and reasonably priced. I recommend visiting The Gilded Acorn if you are looking to get some work done, read a book, or catch up with a friend.

I was disappointed in this cafe. It looks so beautiful and the pastries look amazing but it just looks pretty. The latte was okay with terrible latte art. If you’re going to do art on a latte going out, it should look halfway decent. The pastries were still cold in the middle even though we had them warmed and definitely didn’t taste anywhere near as good as they looked. The girls working were very kind and attentive and were easily the best at part of the experience. If you’re visiting from out of town, I’d recommend EOTE over the Gilded Acorn. They have a different vibe for sure, but way more authentic and better execution.

Had such high hopes after dining at the Grey Sweater the night before. Walked in for coffee & pastries. Inquired about the cava & cheese experience; was told the chef could pull it together in about 30 min (typically advance notice is required). That turned into 1hr+. Busy afternoon & they seemed completely understaffed. The manager did everything except make coffee. Tables sat dirty literally for hours (the one pictured here next to the window was dirty when we arrived and stayed that way until the last 10 min of our hours long stay). But here’s what was most concerning, with a direct view of the kitchen, I noticed that none of the staff wore gloves when plating food. I also noticed the “chef” sweeping and then going back to plating food and they did not appear to wash their hands in between. When the cheese plate arrived the cheddar had dry spots as if it had been sitting out too long or just was not fresh; and the manager served it with a smile never acknowledging our extended wait or gratitude for our patience. This cannot be the experience Chef Black envisioned.
