Radiant Church cult bigots should have no place in our downtown with their intolerance

I'm not a huge coffee guy, but their hot chocolate is AMAZING!

A nice place to get some coffee. Space is open and provides a nice sheltered place to stay. Baristas are friendly - to a fault. It seems most of them would rather talk with friends than focus on POS or making drinks. Coffee is good, the selection is limited. Pastries are tasty. It can be either very quiet or very loud in there, so hard to plan for the environment you’ll be in. It is attached to Radiant, and so the crowd mostly seems to be people heavily involved with that church - young, white, nondenominational Christians. That being said, nothing is overtly or explicitly Christian about the business.

Amazing chai latte and mint tea. The atmosphere is too dark for me but we sat near the front windows so it made for a great morning. Most of the visitors sat alone with there laptops and headphones in the darkest regions. The furniture is so comfy. The workers are great at what they do. Also any tips you give and profits go toward some good causes. I don't know how the baristas are paid but they must have something worked out. It does take a minute to get your order though, don't expect it to be like other coffee joints. All in all it isn't a bad place to go.

Beautiful and clean space. Their chai latte was delicious, just wish it would have been warm. I would guess it was steamed to 120 at the hottest.

New to town and looking for someplace to work, found this spot around the corner from where I live. Good coffee, great pastries, and the barista was very friendly. I got the pumpkin cake/bar and a miel latte. The latte was well made with a nice layer of foam that held. Very open and inviting atmosphere with plenty of space to work/study. Love the ambience overall. Will def be back

True third wave coffee. Ryan was knowledgeable and served a wonderful shot of espresso. This is my new “go to” for GOOD coffee in Kalamazoo.

Would have been 5 stars but y’all need caramel flavored syrup. Over all pretty solid coffee shop tho. Bathrooms are very cozy, which is huge!

Great place! Atmosphere is modern and relaxing. Service is prompt and very friendly. Coffee and food are very good. Contrary to many reviews, the Church behind this place does a lot of good for the community of Kalamazoo that not everyone realizes, and they are most certainly NOT a "hate cult"!

I got an oatmilk latte and a giant whoopie pie to split with friends. Great coffee, great atmoshpere, very chill. Love that the baristas donate their tips back to humanitarian organizations and I appreciate the early hours!

Came here for my morning coffee. It was delicious! The baristas were humble, kind and relaxed! The atmosphere was welcoming and creative! I enjoyed my morning cup so much, I came back to get an afternoon cup and snagged a giant delicious chocolate chip cookie. 12/10 recommend! Wishing there was a Matchhead where I live!
