I had a latte and a sample of the nitro. Latte was very good, bold flavor yet still satisfyingly creamy. Great nitro brew (served chilled) if you are the breakfast-stout type, very creamy and aromatic. Friendly and informative staff. The kind lady in dreads makes a mean cortado. Trendy. Good location, nearby Funky Buddha. WiFi. Simplistic menu highlights quality of their brew and blend. Gets their pastries from nearby local businesses. UPDATE: removing a star because they have a newer barista (one of several: tall blond woman, very kind and sociable) who is admittedly not very good. Maybe barista-in-training, but the cortados she made were very bitter and the milk not well mixed at all. Off-day?

Fancy coffee in an “urbane chic” warehouse environment thats surprisingly comfortable. A great selection of coffee brewed any way you like, with some teas and coffee-cake staples to go with it. Casual atmosphere looks a bit industrial but is actually surprisingly comfortable. Good acoustics lend itself to conversation and a large outdoor patio area with a mix of tables and benches loaded with flowers. Staff are friendly, helpful, and know more about coffee than most people really want to — so you can let them guide your decisions without feeling oppressed by a snooty barista ☺ Local business in the heart of Oakland Parks growing downtown, nearby to Jaco Park and other “main street” activities.

I liked how Switchbox showcased MANY OPTIONS FOR SEATING; plenty of counter and table seating for those laptop workers, free wifi, and couches for those wanting to chat with friends. It’s A VERY INVITING PLACE to be. My MOCHA MACCHIATO WAS A TAD SWEETER than preferred because of the chocolate syrup. THE COLD COFFEE FLIGHT also caught our eye and featured Guatemalan coffee as a nitro brew, cold brew, and poured over ice. While I’m typically a fan of nitro and cold brew, the two here WERE PRETTY BITTER AND LESS SMOOTH while the pour over was unscathed.

Quick trendy coffee house with a cool industrial vibe. They serve high quality coffee drinks, plus a few other select offerings (hot chocolate, kombucha, Etc). They also have a varied selection of sweet and savory small bites such as cookies pastries and empanadas. My selections from this category were delicious and high-quality. There is ample seating ranging from comfortable chairs two stools at a counter and outdoor seating as well. This seems like a good place to get together with friends for coffee, or just chill out and study or work.

Excelente lugar, el ambiente es muy bueno y la de oración increíble, muy bien organizado para trabajar en el computador o simplemente relajarse y hablar un rato. El café frío no fue mi favorito pero tienen buenos precios y buenas opciones.

What a gem for craft coffee in Oakland Park! When traveling for work, I try to find the coffee artisans who know whats up and this husband and wife duo nailed it. The coffee is roasted on site and the flavors are amazing; both the nitro on tap and espresso drinks are smooth and delicious. The vibe is a perfect blend of Denver meets South Florida; custom wood bars with plenty of seating inside and out. If you know your coffee then get to know Switchbox on your next visit to OP.

Its the anti-Starbucks. With a distinctive " left coast " vibe, Switchbox is both hipster and comfy at the same time. They have a fairly simple menu featuring house roasted drip and espresso paired with more unique items like cold brewed nitro coffee. Its like the love child of coffee and stout. They do have some nice locally sourced munchies and loose tea if thats more your thing. Oh yeah, refills on the drip coffee makes this non-hipster caffeine VERY happy.

Stopped in for a tea. The place was very clean and organized. Plenty of room to do work and relax. They have a little magazine and book area. Prices are average. The lady that helped me was really nice and not overtly friendly. They sell some coffee items and their own coffee. This is someplace I would check out on my down time or to get away from the "Basics."

Awesome coffee spot with fresh brew and great cookies/cakes/pies! My wife and I frequent this spot and my local cycling club swings through here every Friday. Great place, the staff is always friendly and they let you sample before you buy in case youre not sure about which brew you want. Thanks as always guys and keep up the good work!

Seriously the best coffee I have ever had. I have no idea how they do it, and I believe the barista must know some sorcery, because the lattes are truly spectacular. Ive also had the chai tea, and theirs has the most amazing bouquet of flavors, and the drip coffee is the best in the area. This is worth the trip.

Everyone that works there is friendly and inviting. They take time to talk to you and explain things if you have any questions. Ive been three times, and the drip coffee has been delicious each time. The last time I had gone they were closed fixing something, but had free coffee outside for everyone to take.

My home away from home. Well roasted coffee. Big, bright, esthetically pleasing space. good wifi. plenty of seating indoors and out. clean (immaculate) restrooms, and the people that are drawn to this space are authentic and friendly. Featured bakeries are pleasing and a sweet compliment to the coffees.

What a great coffee shop. Decor, layout. Its charming and trendy at the same time. Spacious with outside option too. Parking is easy and the area is on the up.... Lets hope its gets some supporting business to help it grow. The only improvement required is your order to delivery drill, which will come.

We drive all the way from Pompano Beach to Ft. Lauderdale Switchbox in crazy traffic. Yes Yes Yes, Its that good. I always get a fresh brew, then buy beans to take home. The beans are always fresh roasted with the stamp on the bag. Dont miss out on this fabulous coffee and nice atmosphere.

Very cool coffee shop thats serious about coffee. Great, friendly staff who are very knowledgeable and passionate about their coffee. Lots of seating and some big tables. We tried the cold brew flight and all samples were great and showed the various brewing methods available.

Cool coffee shop with great baristas! Love that they offer aeropress and Kalita as well as tradition brewing methods. Quaint and bright atmosphere that isnt stuffy like other hipster joints. They also have a nice selection of loose leaf tea, will try that next time!
