Such a cute coffee shop! Coffee and pastries were delish. Any place with a kids play area is five stars from me!

I went to Fort Thomas Coffee to get some work done today! I ordered the wild berry smoothie and it was delicious. I enjoyed my time there, but something to keep in mind is that this is a family friendly establishment (which is wonderful), but it can get pretty loud at times and there were kids running around the whole place for pretty much the entire time I was there. The only reason I mention this is because I read some reviews prior to going that mentioned that this place has a quiet environment, which I would definitely not agree with. Overall, I had a great time there and would likely return in the future.

I love this place! I love the huge kids play area inside and I wish more coffee shops had spaces like this one. My toddler loves it.The coffee is also very good. I had the black cardamom cappuccino and the kids mango smoothie and both were delicious.

This is a gem located in the heart of Fort Thomas. It's a coffee cafe and serve alcohol. WOW. They have yummy pastries cookies and sandwiches for lunch. They have alcohol coffee drinks for an after dinner treat. Lots of seating and outdoor space and they have a playroom for kids. There is something for everyone

Fort Thomas Coffee is a beautiful space with a wide selection of food and drink located on a small town, walkable street. The interior is inviting and homey, but still spacious. The honey vanilla cinnamon latte was solid and the flavoring was on point. There is also a really great outdoor seating area for days with nice weather. I am definitely looking forward to coming back!

Tried this for a 2nd time and I really want to like it but just not impressed. Breakfast sandwich was not great, plain. Toys still gross in kids place.

This is difficult for me to write... overall, it's a solid place to visit - the coffee was good, the smoothie was very good (and very sweet)... the food and pastries looked phenomenal... service was speedy. Vibes are solidly Boutique Cafe.my disclaimer is that I have only been once and am not familiar with the history of Ft. Thomas. That said, it seems this coffee shop is situated in a building that has recently been maybe gentrified? I say that not because of the new construction but bc there are several signs stressing the importance of leaving when you're through with your beverage and that seats are for paying customers... which also might have something to do with being within walking distance of several schools? I don't know, I have mixed feelings about passive aggressive signage but as someone who has worked in the service industry understand the need for displaying such notices so they can be referenced when asking someone to leave...But as someone who had never been there before, and stated as such at the counter, I just felt a little... watched? Like how much time do I get to be there if I buy one drink, what about 2? If a membership for workspace is $15 a day, can I buy $20 with of stuff and leave $8 in tips and we call it even? Or can I refill the bathroom with toilet paper to earn my keep?Okay okay, aside from all the posted rules distracting me, the atmosphere is lovely - the decor is seamless and the vibes are cozy cottage-core spiked with industrial cowboy... it works! And several folks loved it too as I watched no less than 4 adults (influencers?) taking selfies against the pretty wallpaper. I was there for a while (not gonna say how long!) and I wasn't kicked out. Though, due to the holiday season it was crowded and loud for most of my time there... which was sweet to hear all the neighbors and returning-homers greeting each other and sharing their holiday plans for their family getaways to rentals and ski resorts.Despite moving to the counter to be closer to a wall outlet I wasn't asked if I needed anything else (whereas several other customers seated at the bar were) so I can't tell if I was the type they wanted to leave or if my RBF was giving serious do not disturb vibes - who knows. Overall, I feel more comfortable in places a little more... alternative? That's just me!

Lovely coffee shop. The apple turnover was delicious and the coffee was very good. I loved that it is family friendly, but the layout would be better to have the children's play area away from the guest line to order. It was very busy and noisy the Saturday I was there. It would be helpful if they had a "carry out" lane and a "dine in" lane. Was very congested for ordering and pickup. Otherwise, I loved this place!
