The coffee and pastries were very underwhelming. I would go somewhere else for breakfast.

Really nice coffee spot. Great atmosphere, good selection of options. Food was decent and coffee was very good. The guest service was really solid as well.

A variety of offerings, but not too many tea options. Even so, cool atmosphere and a great place to meet someone to chat!

Poindexter is a wonderful establishment with great service, fresh ingredients, and amazing tasting items. I would recommend coming here if you like a variety of coffee options and a calm atmosphere to work/hang out at for a bit

Coffee was not good at all. I got an ice coffee and water was added to it to avoid making more. Threw it away immediately unfortunately. Great atmosphere. Barista was a bit standoffish.

In love with this little gem. Staff is wonderful and friendly, coffee and breakfast are delightful, and they now got kombucha on tap! Try it out!!

Bleh Bacon egg and cheese: bun is badly burned and scrambled egg is runny. Veggie wrap: tortilla is soggy from condensation in it's container. Apple slaw is very heavy on the mayo. Is it just mayo, cabbage and apples? 🤢 The hotel rooms are not any better. The place looks cool but under the hood... yeet.

Great place to study and chill with friends. The walls are filled with real pencils. Very student friendly and cozy vibe and I was just mesmerized by the interiors. So artistic!

Great place to meet friends, enjoy some excellent coffee creations, and stare at pencils. Music is sometimes too loud, but otherwise, it's a great alternative to Starbucks and has lots of open study space (unlike Java House).

Super cool place with an awesome vibe, very cozy and clean. Unfortunately the WiFi connection is beyond useless. Wouldn’t be a bad spot to hang out with some friends for coffee, but if you’re looking to work or study this is a poor choice.

Seemed like a good place to hangout and study or have coffee for an hour or two. The coffee drinks were pretty good, but the food was really not. The breakfast sandwiches are flavorless and mushy and way over priced.

Staff was extremely rude and the coffee was overpriced.

After ordering a breakfast sandwich, then waiting 20 minutes for said sandwich, it was given to me without bread. Not much of a breakfast sandwich for such a long wait (despite not being busy) if you want my opinion.

Until I ordered a Mocha here, I thought I knew what Mocha was. My only regret is that this place is 2 hours away and can not be a regular stop for me. It will be on my must visit list for when I come to town again.

Perfect study/meeting spot! I usually get a latte here, which is always delicious. They’re chairs are very comfortable and there’s plenty of tables even during peak times. Prices are comparable to other coffee shops in the area. Probably one of the best coffee shops in town!

Fun coffee shop with unique decor. Food was tasty - get the egg sandwich. However, asked for orange juice and it was $8!! I couldn’t believe it. The music was also very loud for a coffee shop I could hear the people who were sitting at the same table as me.
