NoFi slow bar

It's pretentious - but that's why it's great. I can't count how many times I've wished for a space where coffee came first. When I come to NoFi, I know that it will. I appreciate the unabashed embrace of slow service, the limited (but impressive!) selection of beans, and the rejection of WiFi. I like the use of vinyl and hi-fi speakers. Everything here is elevated and somewhat alienating to the average person - but that's good! The world would do better with more curated spaces. I like that despite the concept, the staff still feel very warm. I've been to similarly elevated coffee shops elsewhere in the world and the staff there seem cold and distant. Here they actually talk to you, and in fact, wait on you at your table. Every time I go to SATX I stop by. Can't recommend it more for coffee enthusiasts

Brought to you by the minds behind Bright coffee, this quiet and humble shop has title of the most delicious coffee I've had in a while! It's simple in its concept. Freshly made coffee, teas, and speciality drinks in a zen like setting. It's a super chill place to hang out as you grab a drink and explore the various flavors of local and exotic coffee flavors. We tried their matcha and a cappuccino. A must try for sure!

so so awesome!! definitely an experience. they wait on you when you sit and are really informative if you have any questions. i was trying to choose between two different coffees and the barista actually let me smell the beans before i ordered, which i thought was really cool. :) also! everything is priced great compared to a lot of places and much(MUCH) better quality too! Honestly i think this one takes the #1 spot for coffee, thank you guys <3

This is the best shop in San Antonio. Absolutely incredible experience. Coffee is the best. Looking for an experience and speciality coffee then come here.

I really enjoyed the atmosphere here. I love how it makes you really enjoy your time and slow down. The staff is great and so nice, plus the drinks are really enjoyable. 10/10!

This is a nice place for people who truly love coffee and tea. They offer an authentic experience were it’s a slow pace coffee shop bit offering any takeout service. They focus on tasting the essence and authentic taste of the coffee and tea. They don’t offer any creamer, milk, or sugar. But it’s a great place with a cool ambiance and truly the workers love what they do and our passionate about what they serve. Be aware it’s different and you must truly love coffee and tea without the additives.

Super fun table service coffee bar! They have a good selection of roasts to make espresso or pour over coffies. They do a really good job with little details like warming up the cups for the pour over service!

This is the best coffee shop in the city. Hands down. They offer a variety of coffees from meticulously selected roasters along with their own roasts, and present it in a way where you're meant to sit and have an experience with the coffee. NO WIFI! Not a sit down and work space. Table service. Phenomenal offering from the same people who brought you Bright Coffee.

Wonderful. A fantastic place to just sit and enjoy life for a moment. To slow down and just take it all in. The coffee is other worldly good and made by people who really care about being the best of the best. The pastries are also godlike. Enjoy!

Such a cool concept. There needs to be more places like this. It gives you a moment to really enjoy and be in the moment. It's a great spot to catch up with friends. I got the hot oolong tea and was able to get a total of 3 steeps out of it. Friends who got the cortado or latte were being poured table side. The service was very friendly. There are only about 6 tables and it seems like people spend at least an hour or more at a time here. So I could see a group walking in with no where to sit.

Such a great cute place to disconnect! Stopped by for some coffee and was met by some very kind staff members who were obviously very prided in their business. Both seemed very knowledgeable on every menu item and was very patient with the lots of questions we had. The coffee was truly fresh and tasted so flavorful I've never had such a cool experience. Would definitely recommend!

When I told them they reminded me of Eclipse, they told me Solomon works here on certain days. It all makes sense. I love, love, love NoFi's concept. There's no WiFi and no Take Out. When you visit, you're here for the full coffee experience. It's really a treat. Honestly? A little refreshing not seeing people tip-tapping away on their laptops. You've heard of places with taps for different beers, yeah? NoFi has a list of coffees for you to choose from. They will also let you know the price, and if it comes in a pour over or if they serve it as an espresso or espresso-based drink. The other side of the menu has a list of tea. Much like a restaurant, they come to you and explain everything. Service (much like Eclipse) always starts with complimentary (unlimited) glasses of water. These folks *know* coffee. I was more than happy to say, "I want a cortado, I trust your judgment when it comes to which coffee and milk to use." My friend said, "I want a coffee that tastes like a punch to the face," and another said, "I just want a coffee I can have with milk." I also had a ham and cheese croissant to make it a full breakfast. Man. That cortado is what dreams are made of. A lot of cortados I've been having lately have been too watery, too bitter, too much of something. They nailed this one on every level. Temperature was perfect. Viscosity (wow I sound pretentious) was just right. Taste was rich but still a little bitter. A good sipper. The best part? It was oat milk, meaning I wasn't going to regret it 30 minutes later. Much like with Eclipse, next time I come back, I'm just going to go Omakase/Dealer's Choice. They're the experts, not me. I will trust them to steer me in the right direction. So far, right on the money.

The best place to try some new tea or get some specialty coffee. The service is always great and I love to listen to whatever vinyl record they are spinning. Keep in mind there is no wi-fi or takeout orders, as this is a "slow bar".

What a beautiful concept, a coffee shop with no take-out coffee and no WiFi (hence the name NoFi) Community and experience- oriented coffee shop that is different than other coffee shops. It's a lovely and slower experience. You don't order at the counter. You sit at a table and have a server and they only serve coffee and tea (maybe 2 pastries as well). They focus on high quality coffee and tea. You're not going to get a Frappuccino here. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting. They play vinyls and people gather to hang with friends, play board games, read, chit chat. It's a vibe.

100/10 ambiance. this place is PERFECT to get friends together and catch up or play a board game over coffee. the vibes are immaculate !! i honestly loved this place sm. i had a cappuccino- delicious, and my friends had tea. the tea was really good. the presentation of everything was beautiful! we also had great service.

Loved our unique experience here this morning! The staff/owner work very hard to make every moment welcoming and educational. It's nice to see a business focus more on the connection between people and the product/service. They are very focused on showcasing the flavor profiles of different coffee beans so don't expect all the additives at your normal coffee shop (syrups/toppings etc). It was great to see them as busy as they were--means they're doing well! We can't wait to go back to try more! (Beware parking is limited so you may have to drive around the block to find a spot.)

Amazing coffee shop with amazing service. Everything is legit and retro, they even spin music on vinyl

Ever find yourself at a loss for words when asked by a loved one "why do you love me"? In that moment you experience what it means to love something beyond what language can express. NoFi is the caffinated version of that moment. A coffee epiphany.

Amazing ambiance! The coffee shop was decorated so nicely and the staff were so nice. Tea was good quality and coffee was especially incre
