Always loved Brew, been coming every summer since I can remember. Regretfully, they changed their coffee and it's terrible. Tastes like black licorice. So now I just drink beer. Still a cool place and still recommend, just go later and get cocktails. edit: Coffee still licorice (not drinkable ) and only italian wins. Brew was cool now it’s ruined. Used to be comfortable and friendly, now it’s cold and basic. Go back to your roots !!!

The B.E.C. is divine, the perfect amount for a breakfast sandwich and they load it up with cheese. The egg is fluffy and delicious. Also got a vanilla latte with oat milk and it was just the right amount of sweetness. A must visit!

We went to there to buy a cup coffee on April 22, 2023. We tried their chocolate chip and a molasses cookies. The molasses cookie was awesome. The molasses cookie reminded of my grandmother's molasses cookies.

Brew was a nice place to stop while walking through downtown. The staff was friendly and very active in keeping the place clean. The space itself was warm and relatively spacious. I just had a cortado, and it was very smooth and rich. I had no issues with my visit at all.

I used to love Brew, but ever since the menu changed everything went downhill. The cold brew used to be the perfect size (mason jar). Now it's in a tiny cocktail glass. A few sips and it's gone. The new mugs for hot drinks are small and have no handles, so it burns to carry it to your table. The food options were cut back. They did away with avocado toast. The sandwich bread used to be amazing. It changed and is now chewy and burned. Last, but not least, it's overpriced now. Extremely disappointing.

I used to love to come here before they remodeled but now it’s not cozy it’s super dark and the mugs are very odd and not disability friendly. This place has lost all the personality it had and it’s cozy welcoming feeling. I always want to support local but I also would like to be able to feel comfortable and like I’m not going to drop my mug! Still the same drinks but higher prices too.

MadCap coffee is amazing here. My spouse loves the overnight oats. Also, side note, the bathrooms are super cool (thank you Brew).

Has a nice rustic vibe to it and plenty of seating. Coffee was decent but probably wouldn’t be the reason I’d come back.

Very very overpriced food. Coffee was good but the grilled cheese was very underwhelming for the price.

Great environment; perfect place for long study sessions or great conversation. Serves a wide range of drinks, including alcoholic beverages. The food is delicious and the customer service is amazing. Jamie is our favorite, she always remembers us and our order and is always working hard. Best coffee shop in Traverse City!

A decent dirty chai. Very small cup for the price. A comfortable place to hang out.

Nice coffee and late night drinks. Staff is great too. Happened to be there for happy hour which goes like 4-7 pm and takes $2 off beers. Not mad about it!

Amazing spot for coffee and cocktails. One of the best espressos I have had in Michigan, would highly recommend this place.

Perfectly pulled shot of espresso. Beautiful lighting and design. Very warm and friendly staff. Wish the sugar was easier to find but who cares everything else was great.
