A nice little coffee/Cafe shop to stop into. The coffee was kind of weak, and the soup was ok, and that's really the best way to sum up this place. It's just ok. The outside and decor is great, the staff was friendly, but they need to redo menu. Worth coming at least once though.
Fantastic spot just off Rt70. Local cafe with great owner and Chef Adam. We stopped to get quality coffee and found gourmet food as well. The cafe is located in Joan Jenkins Sewing building … a number of cool shops under one roof.
The old cafe 11:11 is no more, closed during Covid-19.
The new cafe is now Frederick Soup and Comfort Food. Small menu hand selected by professional chef, we really recommend this place of looking for homemade food. Cappuccino rocked as well.
Just reopened. In an amazing arts district in an old granary. Great stories with building owner Joni helping Adam get going running a business after working in the back before elsewhere.
Want to make a difference in the community — great for locals and visitors This is a great place to go for a coffee and more as get going again in our post-pandemic world. Currently testing the waters with their reopening and hours are bound to change. Th-Sun 11-4 for now!
Stumbled upon this nice little café for the first time today. The building has been around for ages, but under different names/businesses (most recently Gravel and Grind, I believe). They've recently come under new ownership and are working hard to get the place back up and running, according to one of the owner/partners I chatted with. When I walked in it felt like I'd walked into a friend's house. It was cozy - like a living room - with couches, a pile of Christmas lights waiting to be untangled and strung, friendly people and a sweet dog wandering around. I ordered 2 coffees to go, was pleased they had almond milk, and loved the artisan syrups. They were cooking gluten free waffles and asked if I'd like to try a piece while I waited for my drinks. The waffles were delicious! Really good people, coffee, and vibe. Looking forward to going back.
Lovely, relaxed little cafe and very friendly staff; unique teas and coffees; outdoor seating amidst beautiful flowers; affordable prices; bonus was the cute dog that knows sign language!
Excellent food, charming and unique décor, and smooth coffee. I ordered the Honey Lavender Latte and was not disappointed, as it had just a hint of sweetness. The churro waffle was flavorful, buttery, and brimming with cinnamon sugar. It was a busy day in Frederick, but service was quick and there was plenty of seating. Sitting outside allows you to enjoy the active historical neighborhood, while sitting inside gives you a chance to appreciate the local artwork on the walls (much of it for sale). The waffle was a big, Belgian-style delight and filled me up. There were customers of all ages, and the location is downtown, but out of the way enough to ensure enough parking. This would be the perfect place to bring your laptop to get work done, a book to sit and read, or a friend to catch-up over coffee. I will definitely be back.
Super cute location, and the sandwiches were tasty. However, they were a bit over-priced and took close to 20 minutes to prepare, despite my friend and I being the only customers. While we were waiting, two more people came in and were ignored for longer than was polite, while both employees continued their personal conversation at a volume everyone could hear clearly. I'll still go back and give them another try to see if the service has gotten more professional.
I really have enjoyed this place and their coffee on the many occasions I have visited. The outdoor seating is one of the main reasons I come as it’s a quiet and peaceful place to get work done. However, my last visit was not very enjoyable as the outdoor area was very messy with pieces of trash and food remnants everywhere. I can understand if it’s a bit busy and no one is available to clean up right away after a table just left... but no one was there. Understandably so. There was also a few cats- 2 of which were very friendly and I enjoy having around- but one that was very aggressive towards me as I was trying to find a seat with a clean/ nonsticky table that wouldn’t bother them. The deck too was not much better as there seemed to be clumps of animal hair (from the cats?) and more food and trash as well as boxes and trash from next door. I did also see some poop (cat?) in the mulch area eat where one table is too. I ended up having to leave. I’m sure the inside was perfectly fine- but I never went in as the state of the outdoor area was too overwhelming to even contemplate ordering anything. I really would like to continue coming back here as I look forward to sitting outside and drinking some of the best coffee in town- but a basic sweeping and general cleaning/ maintence of the cat area must occur!!! It has me questioning what the cleanliness of the whole cafe is...
I’ve been by a few times in the last few months in the morning near open. 11:11 had never been open when I went by. The sign says they open at 8 on weekdays and 9 on weekends but the open light has not been on and it’s been dark inside. Out of the 8 or so times I’ve been by I’ve been able to go on twice. Once after waiting about fifteen minutes for them to open the door. The coffee has been good but it seems like they should just change the time if they’re not able to open when they say they will.
Love the atmosphere. Very homey feeling. Good tea selection and great syrups for coffee. And the waffles...the churro waffles are dangerously delicious
