I'm a regular here - the coffee is consistently great, the staff is very friendly, and the environment is wonderful. One of the best spots in town.

Cute place inside Kingma’s. Coffee was alright but very good vibes. The Matcha wasn’t my favorite but the Dirtier Harry’s was pretty good!

Great spot for coffee, and the food is great. This coffee shop is inside of a market with great selection as well.

This is the best cafe in town y'all!!! This place has it all: great quality coffee, yummy espresso drinks, pastries for days, and by FAR my favorite rotating seasonal menus of any cafe out there. I cannot help but gush about how cute this location is. It isn't the biggest, but there's plenty of seating inside and outside when it gets warm out. It is so clean and well maintained, you just know that everyone behind bar cares about their work. And yes it shows!!! Some of the nicest staff I've ever had the pleasure of being around, I've never had a bad experience here. PLEASE check this lil place out, it is well worth your time.

We love having this Cafe in the neighborhood. The design and menu are all very well done and perfectly thought out. Their seasonal drinks always hit right. We usually stop by to get a coffee while on walks around the neighborhood. I highly recommend giving Sparrow Coffee a try!

Variety. The spice of life. This coffee spot does an exceptional job of offering various tea/ coffee concoctions that are sure to please. Stop by and see for yourself. A friendly well mannered groups of humans. Major major is good and the lavender tea iced is yum er. It’s cute and chirpy. Just like a sparrow 💕 Kingma’s is the attached grocery that is priced for the Kings in the area. I know .. bad joke. Yet, it’s true.

Very nice addition to the neighborhood, seating in cold weather is somewhat limited. That wouldn't be a problem if the coffee wasn't so good.

Sparrows is just the best. Really good seasonal drinks, quick and friendly service, relaxing interior as well as nice outdoor seating. I love the events and pop-ups they host. I’ve never had a bad experience there, and today they went above and beyond. I ordered a steamer for my kiddo and a matcha for myself. With a suggested add-in of lavender syrup, the matcha was delicious as always (and free, as they applied my punchcard to the more expensive of the two drinks.) My kiddo’s steamer was the perfect size and temperature, and they added latte art of a little bear on top, which my little one loved. Despite many coffee options in GR, Sparrows is always top of my list.

Lovely local place. They make all their own syrups from scratch. Never bad coffee. Always pleasant and friendly.

Got a triple espresso from this shop today. Glad I'm not allergic to cinnamon. Seeing that my order of triple espresso with Suger and milk also came with a dash of cinnamon in it. Hope you don't kill anybody as you have killed me taste buds today.

Absolutely beautiful atmosphere! I've visited the location on Wealthy Street a few times and loved it, but I had never visited this one. Boy am I glad I did! The walls of windows make it feel open and airy and makes it a great place to study or read or write. I tried The Streisand off the winter menu and it was absolutely delicious! The scone I got was light and fluffy and didn't dry out myouth either like some scones do. And the baristas were so friendly and funny and took great care in getting my order right. 10/10 experience and I'll definitely be back again the next time I visit Grand Rapids.

Delicious Vegan Chai Latte. I love how much this coffee shop supports the LGBTQ+ community with their donations and charitable items.

The cappucino was so strong last time that I got a latte today instead. It was pretty good, but if I had known that the pastries were gluten-free and vegan I definitely wouldn't have bought that muffin.

Coffee overpriced, and wasn't that good.

This coffee shop has really great coffee! It is kind of expensive, but on par with places like Starbucks. Buying more than one coffee adds up but their festive drinks taste amazing! If you're willing to support local and pay a little extra this is the place for you! I recommend the pastries as well, even the day old ones that are cheaper.
