I work around the corner but have stopped by here a few times. It's a cute little spot with a fun decor. Service is always great and the coffee itself is very good. If you're nearby, give it a shot!

I got a Horchata Latte ($6.50) here last week and it was amazing. The foam was thick and perfect, and it lasted through my entire drink. Props to the barista, who was really nice too! (This was Tuesday 9/10 at 2pm.)

The shop itself is nestled in a really beautiful spot in the Center for Architecture and Design. Super airy, newly remodeled, and just seems like a really nice spot to grab a coffee with someone.The coffee itself was just ok; I got a cortado, and it was too overly roasted for me. It had quite the sour aftertaste, and didn't provide the mouthfeel I usually look for.Will be back if I'm in the area!

The cortado is perfection! Vibey and cool, dripping in art with genuinely friendly and speedy service.

A great city's people no longer forced to drink swill! Cento Coffee is some of the best around, and this new joint does not disappoint. Quite possibly the best thing to happen to downtown since before the pandemic.The pandemic took away my beloved Special Xtras and Cafe Lambretta, making Cento Coffee a rare find with only two spots (I think?)--the inimitable Cento and the always delightful Cafe Suspiro, formerly Vega.The new Système D brings the best brew in town back downtown in a stunning (if a little empty at the moment--give it time, they just opened) new spot inside the brand new Center for Architecture + Design. Featuring a striking glass chandelier hovering over the fantastic communal table, perfect for sipping every ounce of romance out of a Cento (their take on a Gibraltar.)If you were a fan of OG Blue Bottle before they sold out or if you just love a great cup of coffee (or hell, if you're a fan of classic Italian scooters!) check this spot out and you won't be disappointed.

This place is super cute, I came this morning for a coffee and was so yummy and the guy was so nice. I didn't realize that my card declined and he gave me it anyway, so grateful as I have been working on very day and exhausted. Thanks so much

Stopped in to try a coffee today and had a delicious mocha in this GORGEOUS space I've been watching be built over the past few months at the Center for Architecture + Design. The coffee was great (they roast it themselves) and there were some yummy looking baked goods that I will have to come back to try another time. After sitting for a bit at the beautiful live edge communal table, we wandered around in the space and were blown away at how absolutely STUNNING it is. The counter man recommended that we do that and he was so right. Very impressive! Can't wait to come back here.
