Nothing Nowhere

Well the name justifies the coffee place: It is inside a combined business.
The coffee is good and the barista is very friendly.

I love this spot, beautiful anti-cafe, owned and operated by local punks who stole my heart.
You like coffee? Fancy chocolate? Delicious treats of many flavors? Gotta check this spot out. Simple as that.

Tricky to find (it's just inside the Home Green Home store). Otherwise, the barista was genuinely very kind and made an excellent macchiato.

I love everything I get from here. The staff is lovely, the drinks are perfect every time, and the environment is wonderful. I tell every coffee lover I can about this place. They have the perfect mixture of soul, knowledge, and good ingredients. Come here for the coffee, and come back for the characters.

Caleb is a fantastic human being and barista. Pulled me a fantastic shot and made us a very creative specialty cappuccino. Absolute legend.

What a lovely place. Great coffee, great staff, great energy. Very much enjoyed the pastries they had here from Oracle Chocolates as well!

"Exquisite" does not even begin to cover how good the espresso is here. Waiting in line for it is to be expected, because the barista takes his time and is delightful and friendly, and this is all well and good because your eyes have so much whimsy and creativity to take in as you wait. 😊 Highly recommend. They'll even let you use your own mug. My life is always made better from a stop here.

So glad to have stopped on my walk. The friendliest barista on the planet Earth, cute objects everywhere, and VERY good espresso!! I will definitely swing by from now on for the afternoon pick-me-up I often need. & my husband very much enjoyed his cortado :)

Trust in Caleb! He's done a wonderful job creating Nothing Nowhere and he is an expert craftsman. You can help but smile while in his presence, the way he creates coffee magic is unbelievable. If you tell him what you like, he will recommend the perfect drink for you. I tried all the hot chocolates he had on his menu and I am dreaming of my next visit. The atmosphere is something that has to be experienced. So welcome to your new favorite hangout, enjoy the creativity running rampant, and drink that good bean juice!

Not sure what the other poster went through (frustrating to feel unwelcome for sure!), but we stopped here for coffee for the first time today and it was AMAZING. The barista was charming, helpful, and suggested a drink that we never would have tried off the menu. When I went with my old standby (a Cortada- hard to get in Ithaca), he went ahead and made a sample of one of his recommendstions. It blew my mind. I’m not a coffee connoisseur by any means, but I am from the Pacific Northwest and thought good coffee was a thing of the past went I moved east. Today, I was proved wrong. Loyal customer starting today. Best coffee in Ithaca, hands down. Lattes were full of nuanced flavor, not sickly sweet or syrupy, everything was beautiful to look at and memorable to drink. We had three drink between the two of us, and couldn’t pick a favorite. Bravo little shop.
