Here from out of town for the day. I was looking for a quick breakfast to start my day and google maps directed me to this fabulous place. It is small in appearance but don't let the size fool you. The variety of selections are outstanding and beautifully presented. The staff was well informed and very friendly. I will certainly come back here when the opportunity presents itself.

Went to this Coffee shop the other day. Was really surprised to see that it's a really cozy nice place for some coffee and snacks. The Coffee was nice and the place is clean and tidy. Social distancing measures are being put to good measure as wellOur Server Ariana provided us with great customer service. Would love to visit this place again soon. Only issue is that there is very limited parking space.

DO NOT SHOP HEREThe baristas are kind and helpful. They are not getting the tips you give them for their amazing service. To the owners: do better.

I've always heard good things about Water Street Coffee Joint, but I've never been until yesterday. Gosh, have I been missing out.I purchased a spicy chai latte, and it was some of the best tea I've had in years. It was rich and sweet with the right amount of spice. I also had a peanut kale salad and an avocado and spinach chicken wrap. These aren't my typical picks for food, but they were both great and the portions left me feeling full.I can't wait for my next excuse to go back to Water Street!

Very friendly staff and cozy interior are a plus. Water Street also offers a wide assortment of eats. I didn't get to try any on this stop, but they looked delicious.But this is a Coffee Joint right?I thought their coffee was fine, but nothing special. WSCJ is a nice place to go, but I don't think they earned those ratings based on the coffee.All in all I would definitely go back. Especially to try some of those eats!

This is a rather charming little spot to grab a cup of hot bean water and a snack. I didn't get to try their sandwiches, but they had a large number of great looking breakfast foods ready to go. The coffee was nothing to write home about, but it does help keep the sleep demons away in the morning.

Had a vanilla latte and it taste great. A little pricey but it’s a solid coffee. The internet is really good.

The Barista was very helpful, helped me pick out the best espresso chocolate brownie ive ever had and a lemon bar and made a great Italian roast. It was awesome to be able to enjoy it with my puppies on there patio.

Great tasting coffee! I grabbed a vanilla lavender latte and the flavor was great but not too sweet like many other places make. I love that they make their own syrups and the espresso ratio was perfect for the 16 oz. Latte we will definitely check them out again when were in the area.

I prefer this location compared to all of the others. The building itself is lovely, and has a nice atmosphere. Their menu is accommodating for those who are planted based or have food allergies. I highly recommend trying the chocolate oat bars or quiches!

Lovely coffee shop with some outdoor seating. I tried the breakfast blend coffee and it was wonderful. I also had the breakfast bagel and it was delicious. I am a bagel connoisseur and this bagel is in my top three.

Wish this could be a 5 star review but the employees are UNPLEASANT. Visited here June 27th, got a latte and a biscuit bomb- both were awesome- but the staff was rude, snobby, and rolling their eyes. Acting as if their job of greeting customers and taking orders is the most grueling task they've ever had to do, and it was the biggest inconvenience in the world to be alive. The prices here were higher than StarBucks, and the service was worse than a McDonalds ran by clowns. I'd prefer a clown than the hipster snobs at this shop.

It is 2/20/23 at 11:21 am and I have just walked out of your coffee shop. I just walked in and asked what the code was to use the bathroom and the lady with the mask on (sorry I didn’t get a name) told me she wouldn’t give it to me until I buy something. I understand that you are trying to stop the homeless using your bathroom but unfortunately you are penalizing your customers for this awful rule. Was I going to buy something absolutely, but I wanted to use the bathroom first and then buy something. Sorry but bringing in a coffee into a bathroom is gross and it is also going to get cold. I don’t know if this is a new rule or not but I have came in multiple times and used the bathroom first and then bought my coffee and usually a incredible bar with it also.I am a long time customer and I am sorry but this needs to be handled better.
