Black Forge Coffee House I - Allentown

This place is way better than that national chain. I've been on a coffee journey lately discovering different coffees as with adulthood increasing I need coffee to function. This metal coffee shop could be walked past if you didn't know any better but please know better! I got a salted caramel mocha latte and I tasted it and almost cried. Bonus points is the fact that they have almond milk. I can always appreciate that. Also the metal music doesn't bother me. They also have punch cards and snacks, and wifi. What else do you need? I would totally hang out here every day if it was in my neighborhood. All coffee isn't made equal. The customer service is awesome but there aren't a lot of outlets so please show up with laptops charged. They host events so you don't really need your laptop. Love the decor. Will absolutely be back.

Black Forge coffee!! It's delicious coffee and if you like heavy metal you'll love this place. The decor makes you smile or maybe you'll be curious about it. Either way it's something to see. The staff is always friendly and they put a lot of love and hard work into giving the best coffee and service to their customers, you can tell. Parking is on the street, but that never stops me from getting a cup.

Metal to the max. Coffee was as black as my soul. Felt right at home in the Forge.

Very lovely coffee shop. Its not your average coffee shop. Not the boring same old stuff. Its amazing and peaceful inside, great drinks great prices and its just amazing. Would give more stars but its the best shop around for miles. If only other coffee shops had more original tastes

Enjoyed my stay, and my coffee. Very comfortable atmosphere. Good music, and free house video game.

Great neighborhood coffeeshop with wonderful, unique coffee drinks (the Hellhound is one of my favorites, served hot or cold) lovely pastries and great art on the walls. If you're not a coffee drinker, they have several tea blends and tisanes worth trying. The parking lot is a block away but worth every step. A definite must visit.

Stopped in with a friend today to check this spot out and we were definitely impressed! The atmosphere is killer and absolutely unique. The barista was friendly and had no problem answering my questions. I found out that they get their coffee from a local roaster which I appreciate! We tried a couple different drinks but their chai latte was what really stood out. One of the best I've had anywhere! Their pastries looked great, I'll have to get one next time! Awesome experience!! I'll absolutely be back 😁

Cool spot! Sad to see it go. Good coffee. Will have to visit the McKees Rocks location.
EDIT: Soooo psyched to see the Allentown location staying with new ownership! 🖤🖤

The dark atmosphere is quite interesting. They have a $6.66 price special which may be the most unique thing I've ever seen in a drink menu.

Their drinks (Coffee, tea, etc.) are soooo good.

It was such a neat vibe, I've never been to a coffee shop like it. The man working was so stinking friendly and helpful. They showcase local art, also, which is always a joy to get to check out. The drinks were amazing, too! I'll definitely go back.
