Found their gem a reprieve from corporate coffee traveling south on I-5 from Scappose, where my in-laws live. Replying solely on Google Maps to guide my path, I found the place to be warm and inviting. It felt like a simple whole in the wall establishment, but they prep their own beans & also craft their few select syrups on site. They made my wife and I memorable mochas for the long drive south. I will definitely make this the go-to place when I need a fix when in the area, for sure.

Ive spent time at this coffee shop as well as their location on N Williams. The shop here is a bit off the beaten path, so its less busy and quieter. It has the added bonus of being in the Schoolhouse Electric Co building. So the aesthetic experience is great. Friendly service and solid coffee offerings make it a no brainer to stop in on your way to work to clear your head, meet a friend to talk or just relax after browsing the Schoolhouse offerings.

Ristretto is one of my favorite coffee shops in town. The coffee is excellent and the spaces are modern. This particular location is in the Schoolhouse Electric building, which doesnt see a lot of traffic, but is a very cool space. There is seating along two walls and several outdoor tables. Like at the other sites, pastries are from the excellent Bake Shop. Nice, quiet place to hang out and enjoy a drink.

Delicious coffee (though the flavor might be "brighter" than most people are used to). Friendly staff and a great ambiance. Its in the Schoolhouse Electric building, so very cool architecture and history. Big windows let in a lot of light. One downside - for the size of the space theres actually not a lot of seating.

Delicious and trendy coffee shop attached to a remodeled railway electrical shop. We stop by regularly on our days out on the town to get a nice soy latte. Their decaf lattes are just as good as their regular lattes. Parking is pretty limited, but usually we find a spot without a problem.

Really good coffee in an interesting off the beaten path location. Shares a ground floor showroom with Schoolhouse Electric. I had a couple of sub par customer service experiences at this location, but I think the clown that gave me bad service no longer works for the company.

Great location within Schoolhouse Electric, and furnished in its industrial chic style. One of the best lattes around, expertly blended and perfect froth. As for milk alternatives, you can choose from soy (.50), almond (.75), and coconut (.75).

This place is in a near area, and the people here craft the drinks with care. They are not your every day coffee house, and it shows. The drinks take a few seconds longer but you can really taste the difference. You have to try it!

Ristretto never disappoints and this location fits in perfectly with its surroundings. With an old industrial feel inside, it complements the neighborhood and adjoining business well. And the coffee is amazing, of course!

R&R is a favorite coffee shop of mine. This location is a bit less popular she to its location, but same great service and experience.


ER

Erwin Chung

It was not a super busy place when I visited, and its location right adjacent to School House Electric makes it kind of cool and funky.


BR

I think Ristretto consistently makes one of the best cappuccinos in the city. The School House Electric space is a nice bonus.

This is the smoothest cold brew Ive had in a minute, perfect for a bright, classic coffee shop atmosphere like this.


AL

Alex Banks-Watson

Really good coffee in a unique space. Espresso con panna was a winner. And I like having a public NY Times to browse.


JI

Jim Abeles

Great coffee and baristas. Price is a little spendy though their free drink with a $20 gift card refill helps.

Pretty awesome location. Very cool looking inside this building. As an added bonus, the coffee is great!


ST

Beautiful space located in the Schoolhouse Electric building with great coffee and a quieter vibe.


JU

Had no outlets to plug into. I like coffee shops that dont just want me to leave after my drink.

Service is condescending and put out feeling. Coffee is so-so. Pass on their tea
