I would give no stars because we waited 30mins and we watched everyone get their orders. All we ordered was wine…. Thank you so much for nothing <3

This place is such a vibe! The coffee was DELICIOUS! I had the iced vanilla latte with macadamia nut milk. My husband had the dark roast with hazelnut. Both were fantastic! I also had the brown sugar bacon and gouda egg sandwich.. no picture of it though because it was so delicious I ate it all before I thought to take a picture! We will definitely be regulars here!

Good coffee and matcha. Love that they have gluten free loaf and biscotti avaliable. Wish they had some gluten free bread options for the sandwiches. EDIT: I discovered they DO indeed have gluten free bread. The caprese toast is delicious!

Got to grab some nice coffee here with my wife after work. This place is really nice and the employees were friendly. The Oat Vanilla Latte tasted amazing!

2nd visit today & it was just as great as the first time. Drinks on point. Vibe check, checked. I love how it's not too loud in the room, but there are still ambient coffeehouse sounds. Sitting anywhere you can hear yourself think, have a conversation, and not get distracted or overhear anyone else's conversation. Looking forward to coming back for happy hour & to try out the food! My one comment would be: to be asked when ordering if we are dining in & if so to use real cups to drink from. It feels so wasteful to drink from a single use cup when I didn't need it to go.

I had been waiting for this place to open since I saw the sign on the window. When it opened and I could finally go, I was blown away! All the baristas know my name, know my order and treat me well! The owners are incredible and the coffee is the best coffee I’ve had in years! The caprese avocado toast is also great. It’s way better than Starbucks and the flavors are unique. I love it

Cool space, for sure. A few people here on a Tuesday afternoon. They were doing some laptop work. Seems like a nice spot to do just that. I left mine back in room 309 though, drat. Already had lovely hotel coffee in the am, so not really wanting that, but starvin like Marvin. Order the egg, bacon, and cheese bagel along with a Can of water. Place already gets a star for supporting canned water. And the sandwich came out pretty quick, no hot sauce but a Cajun aioli was offered, i declined. Sandwich was hot, with i believe swiss cheese. Quite a large bagel compared to the egg and bacon, but it was pretty delicious and hit the spot. Great service to boot!

I wanted to like this place, but ... I don't. The atmosphere is just ... confusing. When I arrive at 9am for a coffee, I don't want to feel like I'm at a trendy late-night wine bar. The chai latte was gross. I didn't want to finish it, but I paid a lot for it. I also ordered a cinnamon roll warmed up. After waiting a while, it came out ... cold. And it did not taste good ... it felt and tasted like it was a week old and had been sitting on the counter. Overall it was a very expensive disappointment. Note: the largest cup they have is 16oz, but when you're paying more than "venti" prices, the smallness is magnified.

Great coffee and syrups. Little pricy if you go dairy free and add flavor. Nice atmosphere. Will come back.

Very nice coffee shop. The service was great, and the food was awesome. Coffee was smooth and very good. Matcha smoothie was surprisingly good.Their bread and even their bagel are so light and perfect. I was worried to feel like a ton of bricks in my stomach after a bagel, but it wasn't, and that s because it is quality food. I'm happy they are in Oswego!

Great local spot. The breakfast sandwiches are amazing. Got one today with goat cheese and pesto and it was so good. Angelica was very nice along with the rest of the staff.

This place was an absolute lovely find! The atmosphere alone was so inviting and soothing. Came here on a first date and it really helped with my nerves, with the laid back atmosphere and decor. The staff here is so friendly and helpful too. Make sure to get some fancy toast here, especially their fig and prosciutto toast! Amazing! Coffee is great too! But best of all, it's a wine bar too! I'll definitely be back!

I came here to order a coffee for a friend. This is a cute place with cool atmosphere and cute presentation. I came in and stood at the counter while 2 teenagers watched a gallon jug of cold brew. One of them noticed me and both kept watching the jug. Finally one of them left the watching to their coworker and dragged themself to the counter to take my order. They did not seem to want to be there. I was polite and smiled and ordered my friends drink.More people came in and both started making coffees. 30 minutes later I left with my coffee. The service was bad. I told my friend I was not picking up for him there anymore. There are too many coffee places around to put up with teenagers with bad attitudes. Maybe it was the day or it was morning, so I still left a small tip. My friend said the coffee today was meh. I'm not going back.

Oak & Bean is exactly what Oswego needed. The atmosphere is great, relaxed and calm. I've enjoyed each of the coffee drinks that I've had (including the latte art), and the munchies are good. It's also a nice place for a ladies night out, drinking wine in the mellow shop.
