Coffee Emporium

Awesome coffee and food. The best in Cincinnati for sure. Pumpkin spice latte was awesome and delicious! Very nice atmosphere with lots of choices. I even bought some coffee beans to go. Will be coming for more again soon! Keep up the awesome work!

Excellent coffee and a busy place on a weekday morning when I stopped for my first caffeine. My cortado was excellent and worth paying for as the flow of customers definitely had the baristas working hard.

I found a table with a power outlet and was able to connect to their wifi with ease. I stayed about an hour and a half and would have gotten a second coffee except that my parking meter was running out. Cincinnati wants its dollar per hour for sure.

Great spot, great coffee.

There are so many amazing coffee shops in Cincinnati, it's really hard to pick a fav, but The Emporium is definitely at the top of the list! Love their casual vibe, rewards and variety of nibbles. Also, the only place ever I've gotten latte art in my YETI, now that's attention to detai!

We were visiting from out of town and were waiting for a table at a restaurant around the corner and decided to go get coffee. We didn't try any food but the baked goods that were out looked good and they said they made it all in house. The atmosphere was unique but it seemed like there could be a few more tables. The coffee though was on point! I'll self identify as a coffee snob and I definitely appreciated the taste of the coffee. I got a mocha latte which isn't anything special but many places have messed this up. I'm looking for a nice, slightly strong coffee taste with a nice but not overbearing chocolate flavor. I can say that they hit both perfectly for me. If you're in the area I'd recommend that you drop in!

A nice place with a lot of choices.
I really liked the White Chocolate Truffle Latte. They are very nice and they also have a lot of pastries that simple looked delicious.
The Espresso wasn’t the best but the rest was very good.
I also really enjoy the environment and the design of the place. It is by far my favorite coffee place to go when in Cincinnati.

The outside seems a little questionable w/ the caged windows & small sign but the coffee variety is worth the stop in! Once you step inside, its the great coffee house atmosphere w/ beans to go, coffee mugs, tons of pastries, big tables, & nice window seats if you need to work. I got the dark, Italian roast brew w/ a splash of vanilla & oat milk which was delicious! So good we went back the next morning!

This is a don’t miss coffee spot in Cincinnati. We stayed in financial district but this was a very short drive or streetcar ride if you are vacationing here. Fantastic roasts and food selections, wraps, baked goods, yogurts, juices and quiches as well as specialty coffees, teas. I loved the espresso. Plentiful seating for singles, families, groups. Must go for breakfast. Line moves fast.

Such a wonderful coffee shop. It has a very nice open concept when you walk in and warm feel to the place.

A variety of tasty looking baked good are available but we unfortunately weren’t hungry enough to try any.

My wife and I both got a mocha and loved every sip. There was just the right balance of chocolate to coffee.

Would recommend to anyone looking for a delicious start to their day.

Friendly staff, amazing to walk in this coffee they decorated even for a to go coffee they do a amazing job parking was a pain because we did street parking but totally worth t

Let me start by saying I am not a coffee drinker. When I came in here I did not know what I wanted, I had no idea what anything meant and I didn't know what to expect. I assumed it would be like how beer has a bunch of different flavors like apple, licorice, chocolate, watermelon, and there would be random flavors but for coffee. This wasn't really the case, at least i don't think. I mean i thought the apple cider meant apple cider coffee, i asked and it was normal apple cider lol. I told the server I had no idea what I wanted and he helped work through the options with me to see what I might like. It was super sweet. He knows his stuff! I got some type of latte or something. Idk it has milk (assuming cow milk) and it's iced. It tastes really good. Like a super good crisp nutty refreshing coffee flavor. I also got a muffin it really hit the spot. Just what I needed right after Latin mass at old saint Mary's down the street. There was also free parking on clay street??? I fully extended to pay and I was so pleasantly surprised I didn't have to. Anyways this coffee is so good and I like it a lot. It's not over powering, or too sweet, it also doesn't taste like fake sweetener or anything. It doesn't really have a texture, it's just liquid. But the ice wasn't too cold so it was nice. The lid did keep leaking but it was fine. The muffin was super moist and tasty and I want 5 more! It kinda tasted like marshmallows. Anyways I might be a coffee drinker now.( But not for the caffeine!!! The caffeine is the issue, I can't really consume caffeine without getting jittery and on edge. I have a bike ride right after this so I'm hoping the caffeine will do me good.) Too bad I don't know anything about coffee. Maybe I will if I keep coming here.

Amazing staff and amazing offerings! This will be my go to coffee/pastry/sandwich place whenever I am in this area. The dirty Chai (chai with espresso) was the wake me up I needed! Pastries were on point and sandwiches were divine!

Cute coffee place with plenty of options to choose from. They have a variety of cool and hot drinks along with a great selection of baked desserts.
Caramel latte with Almond milk gets 5+ stars. Excellent baristas.

They also sell samples of various coffee blends if you want to try before buying a bag of bulk coffee beans. My place to visit every time I am in town.

My first time on this coffee place and definitely wont be the last. We will be in town this weekend for the Asian Food Fest and this will be a good place to hang out with my party. Their coffee is so Good!!! and staff are very welcoming!

Such a cool/cute coffee shop! The staff really seemed to be loving their jobs and the lattes were delicious! Can't go wrong here and they sell aluminum bottled water which was so good on a hot day in Cincinnati. Nice outdoor seating available as well

A great alternative to the mermaid, great selection of coffee and tea with tasty snacks as well.

The space is great for meeting up with friends, or even a lunch date. They use the space well with a combination of intimate tables and community tables spread around the room. It may look crowded but it doesn't 'feel' it.

Nice prices and good service al around.

What a really cool place to grab a coffee and a small breakfast. The vegan cinnamon coffee cake cupcake was delish!! And both their iced coffee and hot are great!

Fantastic coffee & deserts. Very clean, friendly associates, quick and an enjoyable experience. I can’t say enough good things about this place!

We Googled "best coffee place near me" while we were crossing the bridge from Covington, KY to Cincinnati, OH. The coffee is hood, loved the atmosphere and the coffee cake was delicious!

Quaint coffee lounge with eclectic garage sale furniture, concrete floors, but warm colors, soft-glow lighting. Nice coffee and food selection for reasonable prices. Some gluten-free options. My wife really enjoyed the gluten free pumpkin muffin (pictured). Free Wi-Fi. Also enjoyed the gentle swaying melancholic indipop music and the subdued millennial generation crowd who were interacting with both their devices and the actual people around them.

One of my favorite coffee shops to stop in at. Great coffee. Good pastries and a great atmosphere. Often times I walk here for a coffee in the mornings to get a good walk in from the office.
