Best Americano I’ve ever had! I think I’ve found my new favorite coffee shop. Excited to go back and try out the breakfast.

I love going to uptown before I go to work, I got their cinnamon coffee but added tapioca to it. I love the vibe also. The workers are always amazing and kind .

One of the best dirty Chai lattes that I've ever had. Be sure to hit the farmers market on Sunday! Lots of variety and tasty treats!

My favorite breakfast place. My one wish is that they'd open one back up in Crown Point.

This is a great spot to grab lunch . I had the chicken bacon Swiss on a pretzel roll and it was awesome . Everything was fresh and tasted great . I had my first boba tea and it was pretty good too. Nice staff and relaxed atmosphere I would definitely return and suggest it to others .

Went on a market day. Local vendors with farm products and other vendors. Had plenty of eats and tried some delicious sample by the vendors. Their coffee ☕is outstanding. I just drink plain coffee.

Uptown manages to do what few restaurants accomplish… Uptown is a destination! Seldom is Uptown slow or lifeless. The busyness of this cafe is its lifeblood. They have a great coffee product, but there is probably better places for coffee in Valpo. Get a drip coffee and have coffee for hours. Their coffee is good and I’ve had some of the other espresso base drinks which are pretty good as well. The baristas are always fast and eager to help get your drink, right. There is a refreshing lack of pretension with Uptown café. They have a great selection of tea if you’re not a coffee drinker. Stay long enough and have lunch. I’ve had breakfast and lunch there and have never been disappointed. The value of uptown is a social experience that feels like the kind of place people just go. Atmosphere is the best aspect of Uptown. Lively and fun and happening— on its own without pretentious gimmicks. When you come to uptown, you will be surrounded by college students older folks, and middle-age folks. A couple of critiques: many of the outlets on the north wall don’t have power, one of them having it visible burn marks. There are several plugs in the floor some of them work some of them don’t. If you’re in Valparaiso and need a place to meet or work, this is the place to go!

Love this place but the parking is horrible. Hope I can come back in the summer time if I can find parking again. They had some outdoor seating which looked like it would be fun. The voodoo salad and soup was amazing. I also got a tasty bubble tea.

I love, love, love the sausage and biscuits. You have to get there early to get them. They have fresh made scones and great breakfast sandwiches, too. The great coffee drinks are made here. The barista knows me by name. Great place!

U suspect this place uses and is in a partnership with a shady tow company that uses an abandoned building for a buisiness address.

I used to go down the street (sorry) but I loved their website. They just revamped it and the website is now horrible. Love your website so you are now my go to place. Don't change your site please! I love your artist stuff. If that changes it would be nice to look at that before I come in each week now.

Always great coffee and soda! The baked goods, sandwiches and pasta salad are great too. The owners are awesome, they always make us feel welcome. Love this place!
