Atomic Coffee

Atomic Coffee Bison is right outside the coffee shop. This is a very busy location. It even had live music when we visited. Freyja got to practice being friendly as she got someone to give her a treat. I had the frozen lemonade which was perfect for a long walk in the sun, as the drink melted, it stayed as yummy as when it was bought. The hubby enjoyed the cold press. We had a slice of banana bread which was a most excellent side for a coffee.

Exactly what you would expect from a local coffee shop. The very hipster crowd definitely brought out the vibe of the place and the chai latte tasted homebrewed.

I love atomic coffee. The prices are reasonable, I don't feel like I have to give up my left kidney and firstborn son to get a coffee, the vibes are good for studying, and their hours are even better. The biggest reason I come here is because their hours are accommodating for my full-time student/full-time employee status. The staff are friendly and always willing to chat! There is a sense of community here too. I love atomic coffee.

Nice cafe. The activated charcoal mocha is amazing!

It was fine. I ordered a decaf Americano and it was exactly that, no more, no less. The atmosphere was hipstery, with Edison bulbs on long wires hanging from the ceiling, which was also very high. The service wasn't good, the cashier was nowhere to be seen until I had to ring the bell for service. There are high-top tables in the center and armchairs lining the walls. A belligerent woman came in and started yelling before leaving. Two more homeless people came in and one was obviously not all there while another one chatted him up. The picture attached was the highlight of my visit.

This place is disappointing. I came here twice during my weekend trip in Fargo. The first time I stood at the counter for probably 5 minutes without being acknowledged by the barista. She was busy making drinks, but a simple, “I’ll be with you in a moment” would have been nicer, especially for the extended delay. I decided to walk out and try one of the other coffee shops in the area.

I came back a different day and finally tried the coffee. I got the drip and it was very weak and distasteful. I ended up throwing it out to go buy a cup from an alternative establishment. All this to say, there are much better places in downtown Fargo for brewed coffee.

This place allows homeless people who high on drugs to hang out in the business for hours on end. This is not a place to go have coffee if you want to feel safe. I tried talking to the manager, and she started arguing with me. Stating they were "paying customers", which is absolutely false. I asked her to give my name/phone number to the owner and have them call me. She refused to do so. I will not be returning after 5 years of supporting Atomic Coffee.

My group tried the coffee, some lattes (mine was a breve), the hibiscus lemonade, and some of the French creme sodas...all were delicious. The seating area is spacious and the staff is wonderful. This is a great local place and folks should stop by here over any national chain.

Excellent coffee, super friendly service. I like how they actually have different roasts instead of dark roast only like other places I have been to. Will definitely visit again.

The food was and is delicious! The wait was very short and the vibes are lovely. The barista was a little melancholy.
