Fante's Coffee

Wow! I've been here a handful of times but this time made me feel the need to leave them a review. We came in and ordered the brewed coffee special very close to closing time and because they were out of the brew, they made us a cup using pour over method. Firstly, the service was amazing. Not only did they take the time to make us a cup, the gentleman then came over and talked to us about the coffee, waited to make sure we liked it and offered us a "regular cup" if we didn't. Needless to say, the coffee was wonderful. It was Kana Hawa - limited edition African blend. I think it was the coffee of the month. It was light and floral with hints of lavender and jasmine. I normally add a bit of cream to my coffee, but this was so tasty it stood well on its own. We will definitely be returning for the service first but also for the delicious coffee! I was also impressed to see lunch offerings, wine, and cbd gummies!

The place is the kind of coffee shop you want in the 'burbs, near the 'burbs anyhow, though right off the interstate too. Coffee was exceptional, high-brow and good. I tried to the house drip and a seasonal specialty: sugar and spice (hot honey, toasted cinnamon cortado). Felt high brow drinking that... powerful, too.5 star service.

I have two things I mainly look for at a coffee shop: cozy vibes and incredible espresso. I am a definite a coffee snob. I love a good espresso in my latte with a nice, complimenting syrup. I even have an espresso machine in my home. I just moved to Louisville, and was incredibly excited about how close this coffee shop is to my house. My husband and I went there, and I was excited about the vibes. The place looks cozy and has a couch, something else I like to see at a place I may become a regular at. They also make their drinks with a traditional espresso machine and do latte art, another requirement I have for a go-to coffee shop. I then tried my drink. I ordered a hot salted caramel latte. The salted caramel was one of the worst I have had. It almost tasted sour. The espresso did not seem to be great quality either. I was unable to finish my drink. I do not want to go back for fear of getting something like that again.

Fun baristas who are willing to experiment on coffee! I wanted to try a strange flavor combo and the baristas were super helpful and talked with me about it and what notes each of their syrups have!There is a lack of outlets in certain areas though and the pastries were a little dry. But overall this is a great spot to stop by and chat with a friend!

Yummy! Iced raspberry coffee that was posted on the Specials board of the day was delish. (Picture is posted.) Friendly staff, relaxed atmosphere, and perfect place to meet a friend to catch up for a few hours on a Tuesday afternoon.

I don't know where to start..Warm however modern interior, coffee music, a good selection of house roasted beans and incredible staff.Jason behind the coffee bar is chipper, fun, knowledgeable and will explain everything to you. He offered to even make everything we want (coffee wise) even if it is not on the menu.It's very rare you find that kind of knowledge, dedication and drive, energy even these days. I moved here from Phoenix which is a Mekla in regards to coffee and this place is my favorite since I moved here.Thank you Jason! You sir, bring this place from great to awesome!

Such a cute place! While this is a smaller coffee shop, there are quite a few tables! Perfect for a coffee date, meeting a friend, or working/studying for a few hours. It's the perfect nlice volume too, not too loud but not library quite. While I'm not a coffee drinker, my friend enjoyed her beverage. I had some tea which was good too. I'll definitely be back to visit.

After a ride through Cave Hill Cemetery I thought a cup of coffee would be nice. Fortunately Fante's was close by. Service was very good plus they give you a small cookie with your coffee. I was even offered a cup of water later that was very welcome on a hot July day... with lemon. Nice touch!

This was a lovely coffee shop, but it was a lot. I came to meet with a coworker to get some work done and it was quite distracting. The baristas were yelling and rushing you through the line and it was so crowded. At one point I was stuck in a corner with about a foot around myself blocked entirely in. Talk about claustrophobic. I ended up getting out of there and finding a better table but it was still crowded. And loud as can be. I ordered a latte at first and it was good. A little while later I ordered a bagel sandwich and woof. It showed up to my table completely cold. As in, cheese wasn't melted, eggs cold as can be. My friend took hers back and said it was better. Instead, I waited until we left to get more food elsewhere. Overall it was an okay experience. I'd give them an extra half of a star if I could. Hopefully it was just an off day. I think I would come back, just not to work or read a book.

I have loved this coffee shop for years. I also never write negative reviews, but after today I felt I should give a warning. I spent 30 dollars for a sandwich, tea, and water (and tipping 25% because I love supporting small businesses). This price would not bother me at all, if it were up to a basic standards. Upon recieving my tea, it was lukewarm. They then forgot my sandwich for thirty minutes. When I brought it up the lady went into the back, I heard glass break, then 5 minutes later I was brought a bagel sandwich that was covered so heavily in some form of grease that I could see my own reflection. It was not only on the top, but permeating all levels of the sandwich. They also had expired pastries for sale. It was once I took a sip of my cold tea, and found something in my tea, that I decided it was time to go.
