TLDR; cozy ambiance with lots of interior seating but my latte was far too milkya super cute cafe near oberlin college. upon entering, the lighting and seating had a cozy ambiance and most customers are students grabbing coffee before class or sitting at the cafe to study. i read that slow train and the local were the most popular cafes in town, and opted for slow train due to better lighting.ordered at the kiosk and my drink came out in less than 10 minutes.// iced lavender latte, 16 oz ($5.50) //i got the iced lavender latte with the default whole milk. in hindsight i should have gotten skim milk or asked for lighter milk because my drink was very milky. the lavender flavor was fragant but a bit subtle. however, the espresso flavor was not strong and it mainly tasted like milk. a little disappointed given the high reviews, but the atmosphere and people were nice. a little dim though if you're trying to read or study with physical books.

A great place for coffee. It's also for a vegan pastry. Slow Train Cafe may imply a laid back atmosphere. For the most part this is the how it is. The service is prompt thankfully. By far the most important thing here is coffee. Good thing it's really good. The prices aren't that bad despite being in a hip college town. It's about $2 for a medium drip coffee. The pastries are good too. It has several vegan kinds. The last time they had a vegan jumbo power muffin. The pastries usually are about $2 to $3 depending on what kind you get, and they also have a few sandwiches. It cares much about the environment. It won't provide plastic stirrers. You can get a metal one that you can keep and bring it back with you.

Only came in for a drink but had a positive experience. I'm very picky about my chai -- i would give theirs a 7/10. I liked the spice levels but it tasted a little burnt. My fiancé ordered french press and loved it. Staff was polite and everything seemed very clean. Lots of seating!

I am not a fan of coffee, but I am a sucker for good hot chocolate or chai tea. My friends and I stopped here on our lunch break today. I got a hot chocolate and a cinnamon poptart. The poptart was amazing! I really wanted another one, it was that good. I have also had their chocolate chip cookies before which are the best. They aren't allowing guests to dine in currently, but it was nice to get a sweet treat to take back to work.

Very good drinks but hit or miss food as far as non-pastries are concerned. Bagels are sometimes slightly stale.
