★★★★★ 5.0 Olivia Minnes · Jan 2026

This was a great place to chill out and get some work done on my laptop. The peaceful atmosphere and amazing service made for a cozy day of studying and relaxation. Shoutout to the baristas for being so sweet and helping me pick a great drink (Tree of Souls Pecan Pie Latte with maple and cinnamon — SO good)! I’ll definitely be back! Thank you everyone at Counterspell for your dedication to the craft! You guys rock ☕️ ❤️🫡

Considering that the atmosphere is designed with table-top gamers in mind (like D&D and Magic the Gathering), this is the perfectly artistic place to enjoy both gaming and coffee. There are tables large enough to play table top games, as well as smaller tables for cozier gatherings or work time. The coffee is creative and I’ve enjoyed everything I’ve had so far. Special shoutout to the conchas as they are they are homemade with love and the perfect pairing for coffee. The Fortune’s Favor comes with a homemade sweet potato marshmallow and everything is made with homemade or quality ingredients. I also enjoy the inclusion of the arts, as they have handmade ceramics and jewelry for sale.

A HUGE WIN FOR THE NNN! This cafe is perfect and will be loved by all. The drinks and food were to die for. Chai lattes pictured here are the best in town and we also tried a conchas! DONT SKIP! Truly so tasty and we love the vibes!

★★★★★ 5.0 Meredith Courteau · Nov 2025

Really great use of space as an anchor for the Ward redevelopment - I loved the big windows. The fancy specialty drinks are on the board (Maple Miso was an interesting new flavor) but also their more "normal" menu at the counter. Lots of people were working/reading while enjoying their drinks/food.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Chelsea Los · Dec 2025

Super cute place that offers uncommon coffee combos. Baristas seemed well-versed and able to speak to each unique item. As they expand I would love to see more options on the menu and look forward to visiting again!
