Safai Coffee Shop

This is the closest to home I feel in a business in this city. From the incredible staff, to the culture and feel of the shop, it's my favorite coffee shop in Louisville. The crepes are to die for....the coffee is delicious and the real deal, and the entire place just makes you feel one with the community and like you're really supporting an amazing vision for what local businesses should be and represent.

One of my favorite places in Louisville. Every time I go to Safai the coffee is great and staff is friendly. They also have fantastic crepes!

great coffee, drinks, and crepes, I especially like their seasonal drinks. I will say it is often pretty crowded when I go there so prepare for that.

One of the best coffeeshops in Louisville in a well-designed and comfortable space. The coffee is good, they have a nice menu, and a great location. Not only that, but they have a small, but well chosen beer and wine selection if you need to pick up some beans during happy hour.

Had a rich, dark roast pour over..perfect flavorful cup to start the day with. Crepes are perfect balance of chew and crisp. Mexican Sunrise crepe was loaded with veggies and bacon. Will make this a regular spot in LOU

The coffee is great, but there are so many things at Safai besides coffee! Homemade crepes, beer on tap, bottomless (and generous) $8 mimosas on Sundays, and lots of other goodies. I'm particularly fond of their Italian sodas with lavender. Staff is also always friendly and kind.

I had to wait for a while to get my order because it was a Saturday afternoon and there was a throng of customers. But boy, was it worth the wait. I had an oat milk latte which was amazing. They use Oatly which is my favourite vegan milk. And the berries and cream crepe was out of the world. I dont know how they managed to make the cream so perfectly sweet, yet not overpowering.
Must try!

Nice quiet place to read. Good coffee, charming staff.
Edit: after several visits, they have outstanding whole bean coffee. Best decaf in town, for my tastes at least. Service is always excellent, and their crepes are also tasty. Fun part of the community.

This is my favorite coffee shop! All the baristas rock! They are kid friendly and dog friendly- with a curb side window to order your beverage and stay with your pooch! Their wifi is always working and they make the best crepes in town!! Did I mention they serve alcoholic beverages?! Yes. You read that right. Wine & local brews right there on the menu!! Love them! They're definitely a Highland favorite!

One of the best coffee shops in town. A great place to work. They have a small front room you can reserve easily for free, just ask an employee. I use it to have writing meetings but I've also seen book clubs and craft nights happen. All the staff are super friendly.
