Clean, great quality product, cozy seating & friendly service! Creperie/sweets shop behind it once you go inside, and owners are cool about going back & forth. Caramel latte (w/extra espresso shot) I had today was EXCELLENT. They also have a few teas, one of which is caffeine free, and even have kids' beverages. Just a really nice place! UPDATE: The creperie/sweets shop that was behind Character Coffee has moved out, but Character will often have some nice baked goods available in their own little display case.

Homemade syrups? Try the pistachio/caramel! Excellent espresso! And a bonus iced blueberry. Thank you John for fueling the trip back to Indiana!

The best espresso I have ever had! Cozy vibe and the friendliest staff around.

Great place to grab a coffee if you plan on sticking around to enjoy it. Also great place if you are meeting someone for a of Joe. The bar set up is great and the dude behind the counter super friendly & knows his ish about coffee. Utica Coffee #1 in the city but it is always great to have options

This is such a comfy, inviting space with high quality coffee, espresso, tea and other specialty drinks. The owners are so friendly and knowledgeable about their products! Wish I could go there every day :)

One of my “go-to’s” when I travel to Utica. Owner Katie Aiello is a tremendous person, the coffee is great and the location is central to everything I like to do in the city.

Jesse and Katie have opened up a beautiful spot, with every detail carefully and thoughtfully considered. This should prove to be a must visit coffee bar in upstate New York, excelling in both quality and hospitality!

Heard about this gem from friends. What a cool spot to grab coffee downtown! I went with the suggested Hex roast out of NC, which made a smooth, velvety chocolate espresso shot. Jesse hit it out of the park! The baclava and paleo donuts are delicious and a perfect compliment. Thanks for bringing great products and service to the community!

Awesome coffee, awesomer hospitality!! We sat and sipped for about an hour, making pleasant conversation with their brewmaster the whole time. Dog friendly too!

Fritz Lekschas

They serve really really exquisite coffee! One can actually taste the hints of floral notes.
