Story and Soil Coffee

Wonderful small coffee place with awesome servers behind the counter. Food was delicious and well presented(Tried Spanish latte with avacado toast). Not much space for more than 11 people at max. Not sure if they have outdoor seating available as it was winters when i visited last. Prices are ok considering very small portions. You may see few books n magazines as well to go through if u wish stay away from ur phone/laptop. Must try while u r in downtown Hartford.

One of our favorite coffee shops in CT. Their coffee game is solid and their team of baristas is friendly and knowledge. Picnic tables outside are perfect for those warm days. We drive an hour to visit.

You can't tell until you drink I asked for 2 macchiato, that's only thing I drink always FROM DOKIN,STARTUCKS I DIDN'T LIKE IT ALL .Coffee is good. I GUESS EVERYTHING THEY know is just making a espresso with steam milk nothing special about this place.
never going back to this place.

The espresso cream soda was excellent as was the avocado toast (humorously called rent money). Also has a yogurt with banana, peanut butter and cinnamon... also amazing! Gem of a place. Good to see this area with vibrant businesses

Service is friendly and prompt. Captivating art highlights a pleasing environment with unique architecture.

Beyond your run of the mill cafe pastries. Espresso was freshly ground and did not have a distinct character. Roasts vary though.

This was what they charged $9 for. A horrible ripoff. Don’t ever come here

Really good, very affordable coffee. Got the iced latte, unsweet, and it's awesome.

Easily Hartford’s best coffee shop.

Best coffee in Hartford area. Must admit to being a bit of a coffee snob, so after trying a number of shops in the area, Story and Soil wins hands down. Quality coffee, well prepared, with a friendly staff. Absolutely give it a try

I went here early morning on some day in Late july. The cafe is very warm and cozy. You should definitely give it a shot in winter as you can sit outside and soak up the sun then alongside having coffee.
