Oh so glad this place is within walking distance for me. Finally I can live out my dream of taking Sunday morning walks to the local coffee spot. This will be the perfect place for it. Cozy little coffee shop offering small bites to eat, juices, smoothies, and of course coffee. They have a wall of goodies featuring their own coffee and loose leaf tea, coffee supplies like tumblers/mugs, bean grinders, French press, kettles, and even chemex. They also other fun stuff like candles, fancy chocolate bars, honey, maple syrups, cocktail mixers, and even sardines. Yes, I said sardines. Plenty of seating and things to look at. The interior is beautifully decorated with art and wallpaper. Great spot to grab a drink and get some work done. Staff were friendly and ready to serve the many costumers walking through the door.I got a chai latte and vanilla latte. I also got their last slice of chai tea cake. Both drinks and the cake were delicious and very flavorful. You can tell the chai is actually brewed and not just some syrup to mimic the taste. The vanilla latte wasn't overly sweet like some coffee spots make. Can't wait to walk back down to this awesome cafe!

I stopped by here last Sunday with my wife for our morning coffees. We have been to the De Fer coffee location in the strip district before but never to the one in Troy Hill. The inside of this coffee shop is massive and is actually much bigger than it looks from Rialto Street. The floors are made from worn hardwood and then the walls are decorated with lots of bright and colorful art. In the main area there were a couple of display cases full of food and then a bunch of merchandise and coffee for sale. Beyond that there were multiple rooms with plenty of seating but since I have young twins, I enjoyed the one which had all sorts kids books from Sesame Street to Pete the Cat and even Llama Llama. For our coffees on this morning both my wife and I went with coffees from their specialty section. I chose the salted butterscotch latte while my wife went with the peppermint mocha. Then some of their food looked good too and so we added a ham and cheese hand pie as well. My coffee from here ended up being pretty good as the coffee tasted freshly roasted and then a hint of the butterscotch came though. What I didn't get was the salt which was honestly fine. As for the handpie, wow, was it good. First off it was stuffed full of ham and cheese and then the crust itself was flaky while the herbs and seasoning on the exterior was tasty. Then there was also a sauce of sorts inside which may have been a bechamel which was also very tasty.The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again in the future. I really enjoyed the handpie I had here and was also impressed with all of the children's books.

I'd yet to visit since this location was Pear & Pickle (it's been a minute!), but was delighted to find that De Fer Troy Hill has preserved the same cozy, neighborhood cafe feel. I stopped in mid morning on a Wednesday after seeing a client in the area and ordered a cold brew and breakfast english muffin (eggs baked with parmesan, bacon, hickory smoked cheddar, sun-dried tomatoes, chipotle garlic sauce, buttermilk chive english muffin). Based on the freshest homemade quality of my order, I think that any choice off the menu would be sure to satisfy! I would love to try their weekend waffles and basic cocktail offerings. This was the perfect stopping off point to get some remote work done and recharge. Thank you, De Fer!

Let me start out by saying, my mom used to dip my pacifier in espresso. I am half Italian and Half Cuban. Coffee is literally in my DNA. I am a tad bit of a coffee snob. This place is hands down one of my all-time favorites. I have been to all of De Fer's locations and this one opened up down the street from my new house! BLESSING the neighborhood with some real good stuff. The coffee is top tier goodness. Each coffee spot has their own thing that I love and order every time, here my go-to drink (and only here will I get this because they ruined all others for me) is a Mocha Latte. The chocolate is so damn delicious. Perfect amount of bitterness to the chocolate, balanced so exquisitely to the coffee. It is really perfection in a cup. My boyfriend didn't think he liked chocolate beverages and he was like "WOW, that's REAL good!". The baked goods are always a hit too! I loved the chocolate chip cookies. This time we tried the banana pecan muffiin and it was amazing! It was spiced kind of like a pumpkin pie but different, if that makes sense?! Crunchy in all the right places. Super tasty. The breakfast sandwich sounds pretty tasty too, will definitely be back to try that soon! Thank you, De Fer for being in Troy Hill!

Great space- so much seating, upstairs too! Their food looked delicious although we didn't try any. Got black coffee and peppermint tea and they were great! They brought the tea right to our table which was nice. Good place to study or catch up with a friend!

Wow bad. Coffee is awful here, bitter and thin. I poured mine out on the street, not kidding. I guess people get lattes and other candy concoctions that cover the acid burn.

Coffee here is like gas station coffee. Decor looks like a children's daycare center. I had some thing like quiche but it had lemon in it. Really gross. I don't know why hipsters always reproduce this babyland environment. Im usually just takeout anyway so I'm more saddened that I can't just pop in and get a good strong smooth coffee. Oh yes with mandatory tip I paid 6:50 for a red-eye (one shot).

I recommend all the locations of this coffee shop, but this one is the quietest and coziest of them all. Like the additional non-coffee items on sale along the opposite wall.

This place is beautiful. Light and sunny. Coffee is great. Food is good. Zucchini roll excellent,but raw in middle. All the he other food was good but needed just a little more flavor. I recommend this coffee place!
