Great place for coffee. Not many edible items but the ham and cheese croissant is delicious. The staff was friendly and the place was clean.

The cold press is like iced tea. I’ve had stronger tap water. Baristas should ask if you like iced tea when you order because it’s indistinguishable.

Solid place. Good coffee. Friendly staff. I was able to get some work done and grab a couple cups of coffee. Enough said.

This place deserves yet another good review, the energy is always so lovely and the Americano coffees never fail. If you need a good energy pick-me-up or a literal caffeine pick-me-up... head here!!

Cute place, nice atmosphere, calming music, and the worst bagel and cream cheese I’ve ever had. It was supposed to be toasted but it was cold in the middle and tasted terrible.... so probably don’t order it 😬

Truly one of my favorite coffee shops. Their unique and thoughtfully crafted drinks are worth every penny. Great ambience too.

Coffee is really good but the baristas have been consistently passive aggressive and rude

I love Five Watt, I met the kind owner when he first opened the shop several years ago. I was gone for almost a decade and I’m back and I live right down the street! The service is a little pretentious- I wish that was a little bit better but the coffee makes me come back over and over.
