CRUDE Craft Coffee Bar

Despite not living in Ft. Worth, I've had the occasion to visit Crude a few times over the last several months. The cafe is small but comfortable, with numerous seating options, good yet calm lighting, and a staff that is very knowledgable and helpful. They typically stock some packaged coffees from DAK, La Cabra, and other roasters, and usually have a premium espresso offering from one of those roasters. On my most recent visit, there were two premium offerings, both from DAK. I chose the "Nitro Melon", tempted by the specter of watermelon, kiwi, and cantaloupe notes. The drink was presented, as always in proper service, with a porcelain NotNeutral cup, a spoon, and sparkling water. The shot itself was very well pulled in terms of balance (the barista had indicated he needed a moment to get it dialed in, a welcome comment). No bitterness, no sourness, it was right on. The flavor was.. interesting. Not something I'd want to drink every day, but it was a welcome change. The melon notes were indeed strong, in a mostly good way, but again, it was something different and not what you'd usually expect from espresso. I also grabbed a bag of DAK to take home, and it's been great as a pourover. This place is small, but packs a punch with its well trained and enthusiastic staff, and great offerings from well known international roasters. If you're a real coffee geek, this place will satisfy!

I have a whole LATTE love for CRUDE! As I've said in past reviews: "Words cannot ESPRESSO how much I enjoy..." "I'd drive out of my way to get coffee..."This all holds true, still. Crude is by far the best of the best for coffee in Fort Worth. I have not found another coffee cafe that crafts their speciality lattes with such care, quality and deliciousness. They always have a seasonal list of creative coffee numbers or you can grab a yearly favorite. I am still personally biased toward their Dulce De Leche or TX Spirit. The baristas are always kind and patient when you ordering. They offer help, advice or a cheerful conversation when needed, too. Hopefully, you'll go by for a visit and pick up one BREW-tiful cup of coffee!

Amazing coffee! I like the seasonal bumble bee but since it's out of season now, I tried their season pecan one is also delicious! The Nutella Knots!!!!!! 10/10Also, I love how they have Nobel art from portico coffee! local business supporting local artist/business! Love that!!!!

YUMMIES!! So I just popped into this place one morning because I was starving but wanted to get a quick small bite and coffee is always on my radar. When I tell you this little coffee spot is darling that is what it is. The service is patient, professional and polite. I got the Dulce De Leche Latte and I will get it again and again. They have house made syrups. I tried the cake they have there no picture I ate that cake up so fast and it is sooooo scrumptious!!! I think it's some type of pecan pound cake and it is gluten free... I do not usually like gluten free desserts but this thing off the charts good. We tried the Maple Almond Honeycomb and that was delicious as well. The coffee bar is clean and cute.

This is my first time at crude and I thought it was a cute coffee shop however it was just too quiet for my taste. Like way too quiet in there.The shop itself was cute and spacious. They had quite a few places to sit. My friend ordered a Dulce de Leche latte and I ordered a Texas spirit. Both drinks were actually pretty good!We also ordered pastries. My friend ordered a pink cake and I ordered one of the scones. I believe it was a pumpkin scone. My friend mentioned that her pink cake was way too sweet and the scone was pretty dry unfortunately. But both looked delicious. They just weren't.Check out this place for yourself though because it might just be the quiet you're looking for and you might like the drinks as much as we did.

I really like the ambiance for a rainy day, anticipate a darker more rustic environment. I got their chai which was really good, it has a bit of a spice to it.

This is a nifty spot for quality Joe in a trendy new area of Ft. Worth. They have a good selection-- lattes, Americano, cortado, etc. and the atmosphere is cool -comfy chairs, couches- even a chandelier. The service is great, too. You can also order some fresh desserts, scones, and other sweets. Definitely worth checking out.

My absolute favorite coffee spot in Fort Worth. They also serve one hell of a treat - which are all baked in house. I have used them for catering and purchased a selection of their pastries - they are just THAT good!Service is friendly.Coffee is tasty. Try the Texas Spirit or Dulce de Leche. The scones are sinful. But if it's wrong I don't want what's right.Super cute interior. A lot of folks come here and work. It's the kind of spot you want to stay awhile. So, stay awhile.

Love the interior, they have different art for display and sale. Music was playing softly in the background and I love the noise isolation in the cafe.The baristas were nice and brought my coffee to my table. I got an oat milk latte for $7.25. The beans were fragrant and fantastic. They do a solid coffee. Its a nice and clean atmosphere. Parking was street parking. There was different things around to do around the area like a cider shop, board games, and bbq all around the area.

We absolutely loved this place! The honeycomb pastry was possibly the best pastry I've ever had in my life!! So good that we bought the rest of what was left in the case! And the coffee and lattes were amazing in addition to fantastic service. Go here!
