"Step into a 19th-century-inspired library space with this coffee shop inside the Adolphus Hotel in Downtown Dallas. It’s all heavy wood with big windows onto the busy streets outside and giant bakery counters. The seats are plush leather things to sit down in and never get up from. There are long communal tables and booths to sit at as well. It serves coffee drinks, chai, and a London fog tea in homage to that portrait of Queen Elizabeth in the lobby from her stay in the ‘70s. There are also breakfast sandwiches, breakfast tacos, and grab-and-go options at lunchtime." - Courtney E. Smith

Nice stop to have your evening coffee and cozy place to have your office hours! Kerlly and Stephany attentive behaviour also made the experience of our afternoon at Otto’s much better. Except the cold wind that you might experience in the hallway, we had great time hanging out plus the free chocolate croissant 🥐 😇

Cute coffee shop. A bit expensive. I ordered a seasonal/speciality drink, the spicey watermelon lemonade but they forgot the spice and could not taste and tequila at all. However, the brownie is rich and cakelike.

Coffees are curated so nicely and not overbearing! Loved how they offer milk substitutes , array of snacks and breakfast items. I got the white chocolate raspberry latte and over wedged my expectations. Will be back!

Amazing experience at Otto’s! The atmosphere and aesthetic of the place was very unique and renaissance like. I had a Cortado and it was good but not the best. However the shop alone I believe is worth the 5 stars.

We stayed in the hotel and I was excited to try to coffee at Otto’s. The decor and atmosphere was nice. I ordered a sugar cookie latte and my husband ordered a salted caramel latte. I took a sip of mine and it barely had a cookie flavor taste, it tastes like regular coffee and it was bitter. I then tried a sip of my husbands…and it tasted exactly the same. I couldn’t even tell the difference what was a sugar cookie and what was the salted caramel. For the price of this coffee I’m not too thrilled. Can get better flavored coffee at Starbucks at that point.

Truly, the baristas here are so attentive, paying attention to the smallest details of their craft. Chattara, in particular, made me feel so special! They aim to ensure that you are well-served and happy. The coffee they serve is of exceptional quality, with a smooth texture and a strong flavor. The space is inviting, with many different styles of seating to choose from. It's a great way to start your morning, especially if you're staying the night at the Adolphus!

Love the aesthetic and vibe. Otto's is inside of the Adolphus Hotel and looks beautiful and well kept. It has plenty of seating and is self-service. I had a latte and sugar-free vanilla, it was delicious and served relatively quickly. Would definitely return.

otto's aesthetic is immaculate however the coffee and service were both not great. i go to artisanal coffee shops all the time and i understand coffee/cafe culture.. 1- ordered : sugar cookie latte w/ oat milk and brown sugar matcha the barista called out a sugar-free latte... and i double checked what she said and asked if it could be re-made ... because when someone orders a sugar cookie latte... they want the sugar i set the sugar free coffee on the counter for them to take back. they some how remade the coffee and then mixed the sugar-free and sugar cookie lattes up... the biggest question on my mind is why can't i tell the difference sooo the latte itself tasted like the new stock exchange.. like it was strong and bitter. i am not that kind of coffee drinker. i am more of a girly pop coffee drinker-- so i got up an asked if there were any drinks that were a bit sweeter.. the barista asked what drink i had; and i told him the sugar cookie latte... he poured me more syrup to go into a cup... being a good sport i poured it in the coffee. it actually made it worse. i just threw my coffee away... because what was the point. i also ordered an egg and cheddar sandwich that was decent... this place is supposed to be a excellent, and i am sadly disappointed. if you go, i hope your experience is much better than mines. bon appétit

Why 4 stars? Because my breakfast sandwich and coffee hit the spot I needed. --- --- --- I was staying nearby and on my way back home to Houston, but priority #1 was coffee. I'm boring and just got some black drip coffee, which tasted like 95% of all drip coffee on planet Earth. I wouldn't have reviewed the place based on that, but I couldn't help myself but order one of their very tasty breakfast sandwiches that was just staring back at me from the display case. Bacon, egg and cheddar in between a couple of croissant buns. It was basically a high-end egg mcmuffin, and it was awesome. There were a couple cold bites in the middle, which was sub-optimal, but forgivable considering how ideal this thing was. I parked on the street behind it using ParkMobile and on a Saturday morning, the people on the streets were me and about 15 homeless folks, but everyone minded their own business and a delightful experience was had.

Maybe it was just bad luck, but both of our drinks were abysmal. We got a hot matcha latte and a salted latte (I think seasonal?). I love the ambiance inside the Adolphus hotel and the vibe of Otto's...but we were pretty disappointed in these drinks, so we probably won't ever go back for a latte here. Conclusion: Service, ambiance, and cleanliness is great. Haven't tried the rest of the menu but the lattes weren't great. Tiktok brought us here but our tastebuds say no thanks this time.

Tehe- UPDATE to shoutout my newest favorite drink! The shop as always is gorgeous and screams old money aesthetic. They did have a face lift recently though by adding a TV screen menu that advertises their extensive menu. They've also added alcoholic drinks to their menu and I'm super excited to try their espresso martini in the near future. A staff member recommended me their banana matcha a couple months ago and I've been obsessed since! Each time the drink is sweet and slightly fruity from the banana syrup.

I love the hotel that this cafe resides in! It is gorgeous and full of old southern charm. BUT, the menu is tiny. Not many specialty drinks or pastries to pick from. I tried the sugar cookie latte and it had no flavor. The experience far outweighed the actual products. The people working there were nice and chatty. They did warm up my oatmeal for me, but again, it had no flavor lol I'd recommend getting better items to stock your shelves.

This is a cute coffee shop that's connected to the Adolphus hotel. You can find many breakfast items, snack items, pastries, coffees, Matcha the service is very friendly. You can take your coffee and go sit in the lobby which is what we did it was magnificent. They do have a little sitting area right next to the window with Wi-Fi dog friendly people, friendly coffee friendly.

Totally meant to go to the weekend..but accidentally walked in here. It was a treat. Located in a hotel lobby. Ordered a gluten free chocolate muffin that was moist and delicious. I also got an iced dirty chai that was amazing.

I stumbled upon Otto's Coffee and Fine Foods while exploring the local area in Dallas, and I'm so glad we did. Located adjacent to the Adolphus hotel, the coffee shop may experience some hotel traffic, but don't let that deter you. I ordered a vanilla pistachio latte, and it was excellent. The flavor combination was unique and well-balanced, making for a delicious drink. Otto's Coffee sources their coffee beans from Full City Rooster, known for having some of the best coffees in Dallas, and it definitely showed in the quality of my latte. The ambiance inside the coffee shop was upscale and cozy, giving off vibes of a super upscale study. I found it to be a perfect place to relax and enjoy my coffee. If I find myself in Dallas again, I will definitely make a point to stop by Otto's Coffee and Fine Foods. It's a great spot for coffee lovers looking for a high-quality cup of coffee in a sophisticated setting.

This is some of the best coffee I have had in a while. Hands down! There's a strong coffee flavor that's not overpowered by the syrups or flavors of your choosing. I ordered a hazelnut iced latte and as I could taste the hazelnut I still got that coffee flavor that I love. I am usually iffy with ordering flavors as most drinks come too sweet, but Otto's has it down to a T! The vibe was immaculate. Coffee shops are usually a little chaotic but this one still had a calming vibe even in the midst of rush hour. We got in line around 8ish AM and the line was OUT the door long! We didn't mind waiting and I'm glad we had the patience because I couldn't even imagine missing out on how good this place was. I can't wait to be back!

Great way to start your morning especially if you're staying the night at the Adoplhus!

We dropped in for a pastry snack. Really cool environment. Everything very modern. The new employee taking our order gave me a coffee instead of tea, but other than that the pastries and peppermint mocha was amazing.

It was a Tuesday morning and I was headed to a work meeting. Like most people, I was in dire need of some caffeine, so I stopped at Otto's for my morning coffee. I walked in and was immediately impressed by the atmosphere. Otto's interior design blends beautifully with the architectural elements of its infamous next-door neighbor: The Adolphus Hotel. I enjoyed the following: Cold Brew - mild flavor and slightly acidic. I added some oat milk to balance out some of the bitterness. Iced Latte - This includes 4 espresso shots. It was strong and I couldn't finish it. It tasted slightly bitter, but it definitely gave me a nice jolt of energy. The service was great. The cashier and barista were friendly and efficient. There are a lot of seating arrangements available, but I didn't get to enjoy it. This is a great place to sit and relax with friends or family. I came in around 7:30 AM and it wasn't crowded at all.

Their lattes are very well made and they give you a ton of syrup in them as well! Service was great and ambiance is very cute and classy, great for meet up for forms one on ones.

Stellar coffee and friendly service. Quick and efficient. Downstairs in the Adolphus but accessible from the hotel or street this place is swanky and beautiful with lots of great seating. Patrick took our orders every day and was as friendly as he was handsome!! He even took extra time to give us bbq recommendations. Edgar made great americanos for us and treated us like old friends. We went every day on our stay in Dallas.

Mike D.

Needs $$ instead of $ IMHO. A bit pricey, but it's inside a swanky hotel, so what do you expect. Service slooow, but coffee and egg+chicken sausage+spinach sandwich was good 3/5

Really cool coffee shop in downtown Dallas! It's located inside of the Adolphus and it is elegant and delicious. They have fun holiday specials and normal menu items as well!

FOOD INSTAGRAM: @northtx.gemz **** WHAT THEY'RE KNOWN FOR: connected to the Adolphus Hotel in the heart of downtown Dallas, Otto's has tons of visitors from Dallas and out of town coming in and out as hotel guests. THE VIBE: business casual, black, modern, basically a luxury coffee shop. PRICE: ~$7 WOULD I COME BACK? Yes. **** Overall Rating: 10/10 - I loved my experience at Otto's coffee. The coffee was perfectly balanced and not too sweet. It was robust but the amaretto flavor was not overpowering. - I actually started walking around during my study session and omg it's so beautiful! I probably wouldn't go back to study mostly because there was no one working around me and it was more of a sit and chat coffee place. - There are SO many places to sit inside of the coffee shop and in the Adolphus hotel itself. - Only heads up is you'll most likely not find street parking and your best bet is to pull into the Adolphus hotel garage and get valet done for $10. Tell them you're going to Otto's.

Beautiful coffeeshop within walking distance! Although there was a bit of a wait, the barista did a great job of getting the rush under control. Delicious tea and coffee options. We will return when back in town.

Beautiful coffee shop with great coffee. I saw them make their ham & egg breakfast sandwich and it looked so fluffy! I'll have to get it next time!

Roberta D.

Amazing coffee and croissants. I got the pistachio with white mocha which I highly recommend! The ambience is very classy as well (can be found in the lobby of a hotel).

Tabby B.

Yelp
Otto's cider is absolutely sub par. $6 for a small cup of steamed great value apple juice. No spice. No caramel. Nothing worth $6 about this. You could buy an entire gallon of apple juice for this price and heat it up in the microwave or head over to Starbucks where they will at least give you a little cinnamon. Only reason I'll give two stars is because they had some other things on the menu that seamed interesting but I don't know if I will return to try them.

Such a cute little coffee shop. Great atmosphere I could seriously sit here all day and read in the rain were I not on vacation. Got an excellent americano and a Oreo financier.

Richard B.

Yelp
Great atmosphere! Friendly greeting at the counter. Coffee was very good. Applewood Bacon Sandwich was a bit small and looks like something from Starbucks.... I don't taste the smoking of the applewood at all. Quite disappointing. The Avocado Toast was very small and wasn't very good. Below average in my opinion.... I wouldn't come back for any of the food items, but I would drop by for more coffee if I'm in the area.

K S.

Yelp
The drip coffee was OK and breakfast sandwich with spinach, cheese, egg and chicken sausage was OK. However, it wasn't fully heated and cold in the middle. No customization is possible because these sandwiches are premade. The bread was a brioche bun and was tasty. But costly $15 for breakfast. You get forced to overpay when you're in town for a conference. Will try something else for breakfast tomorrow

Mandy L.

Yelp
The coffee was decent but the service was horrible. I ordered two drinks but apparently the baristas forgot about them, people who ordered after me got their drinks faster than I did. When I went to ask the barista about it, she was giving me an attitude as if I shouldn't ask her about it. Both of the baristas saw me looking for my drinks but just ignored me completely. I waited there for almost 20 minutes and there were only two people who ordered before me. The experience was terrible.

Jenna L.

Yelp
The peppermint white mocha is delicious!!!!! I'm usually a Starbucks snob, but was staying at The Adolphus and needed some caffeine. I also liked that my mocha was like a Tall size from Starbucks but still had two shots of expresso in it (which only comes in a Grande from SB). It still tasted just as good and didn't need to drink as much to get my energy rush. :) The coffee shop is super cute and clean with great views of the street/AT&T Discovery Center. It has nice tables plus a bar top with outlets to sit and work or to charge your other devices. Restrooms are right by it. Highly recommend!

Brad D.

I had the drip coffee with a breakfast sandwich. They're quick, friendly and it's pretty good coffee!

Jasmin G.

Came here on Saturday afternoon, it was slightly busy but I've seen Starbucks busier than this. The girl at the counter with blue hair was very rude and passive aggressive. Coffee was good the inside is beautiful!! But horrible customer service.

Stephen W.

Yelp
Located inside the Adolphus hotel, we stopped here for quick coffee. I am giving them 3 stars because the coffee was good, a bit acidic, but flavorful. But the service is surly, bordering on hostile. All I can say is that if the cashier and other person who was working hate their jobs so much, they should get a different job. Life is too short and there is no reason to take your unhappiness out on customers.

On this exceptionally rainy, pouring-cats-and-dogs-kinda-morning that brought in a cold front, I decided to give Otto's a try. I feel like I always say "this spot has been on my list forever" but it really is true in this case -- for years, in fact, and I just never found a good opportunity to go. Somehow, that ended up being on a day that had me walking into this beautiful coffee shop completely drenched, despite the use of both raincoat and umbrella. But after having a brown sugar latte and spice cake, I decided I'd walk through the pouring rain again if it meant getting to savor the experience of visiting Otto's for the first time. Believe me when I say that this fine coffee and these artisanal pastries are worth navigating inclement weather and the pain of parking in downtown Dallas. I can't speak to the valet situation that other reviews have described, but there's usually at least some street parking spots open along one of the adjacent streets and it's super cheap to park for 2 hours. Speaking of cheap, I was also pleasantly surprised by how reasonably priced everything was here -- despite it being a classy, upscale joint in the Adolphus Hotel and all that, the coffee and pastries are still priced comparably to other coffee shops in the city. They use Full City Roosters, which my friend with high standards for coffee tells me is one of their favorites in the city, and the decaf tastes just as good as non-decaf. Not all their syrups are made in-house, but the brown sugar syrup is and I highly recommend it if you like a slightly sweetened latte where the syrup nicely complements the espresso without overpowering the coffee taste. The spice cake was also not what I was expecting, but in the best way possible -- it was dense without being heavy, perfectly balanced in terms of spice, and the frosting on top was buttery, not too sweet, and complemented the cake perfectly. I also had the chance to try a piece of their chocolate chip cookie, and o m g it is 10/10 the FINEST chocolate chip cookie I've ever had. Brilliantly made. They're also known for their liege waffles, which I hear great things about and would love to try on another visit. The vibe is classy and elegant, all clean lines and modern black and white with wood tones; it's also plenty spacious to sit and work for a bit if you need, though I'm not so sure about the outlet situation, as I wasn't coming here to work today. All in all, this Viennese-inspired coffee shop definitely lives up to the hype and I can't wait to come back to try some of their other drinks and baked goods.

A measure of a good coffee shop is good drip coffee and this place has it. My review needs 85 characters and I'm not sure what else to say other than the coffee is really very good

Valerie Q.

Yelp
Their bakery bar is good... but never had great experience with their lattes or iced coffees . Something's off but can't tell what it is

Melanie B.

Yelp
Great spot. Awesome customer service. Nice grab and go selection which is great if you're a hotel guest. My orange blossom iced latte was yummy and so was my orange juice (from the refrigerated section). Overall I'm impressed and will be back.

Jacqueline T.

Yelp
There are so many coffee options going down Commerce street, but this one is definitely worth stopping into! Great oat milk and my daughter devoured her chocolate croissant. The service was so nice too. The esthetic of this shop is so cool too! The vibes are more modern but I'm a sucker for patterned floor tile and this stretches from the coffee shop and into the hotel lobby area. Everything is so dreamy! Highly recommend!

Margaret S.

Yelp
Im in town and wanted to visit downtown. I found this place and so happy this is where I'm starting my Dallas experience. Our barista was so helpful and joyful. You must have the waffle with sugar pearls. The syrup is not necessary but pour some as you wish. It's a nice place to cool off.

Lauren V.

Yelp
This coffee shop is absolutely gorgeous. As soon as I walked up to the front door a gentleman opened it for me as well as the second one to enter the shop. Inside is beautiful and clean. They have a pretty nice menu with something for everyone. I did not try their food but I tried the honey cardamom latte ($7.49) and it's delicious! Definitely recommend.

Anh T.

Yelp
Super cute place I stumbled upon while walking around the area. Spacious with lots of booths, tables and lounge chairs. Dark interior and tastefully decorated I almost felt as if it were a romantic dinner spot. Coffee comes in a mug and served on a wooden platter. I also ordered a tart that was also very good, highly recommend their pastries

Dillon L.

Yelp
This place got vibes for real. If there ever was a coffee shop that could be described as "masculine" then Otto's is it. All black walls with wood tables and leather seats, you might feel like you're in an old school cigar room. (There's also a barber and shoeshine in the building too so you know it's on purpose). The manager and barista were great in answering any questions we had and offered good recommendations for non-daily coffee drinkers. They use Oak Cliff Coffee here and have nitro cold brew on tap. For me, even though it was late afternoon I couldn't resist ordering a cortado. I would say it was decent but not the best cortado I've had, with some of the bitterness of the espresso still coming through. I may have preferred more milk or something to make the mix richer and creamier. Still a solid drink, with nice latte art lol. Overall the main reason I would come back (which I will) is the unique vibe and atmosphere of Otto's. Nothing against the coffee, I just need a couple more samples to make a better judgment of that.

Kady L.

Yelp
Place is very clean, sleek and modern. I love the decor. Parking can be difficult. I just parked right in front of the store, hoping no one would tell me to move. Service, it was great! Very welcoming and attentive. I ordered a vanilla latte for 5.95$. Wasn't the best latte but it was OK.

Trina W.

Yelp
Was ready to be wowed but expectations fell short, unfortunately. There is a cute little window that you can order from on the outside of the building which I did really like since I was out walking my dog and couldn't bring him in. I had a latte and waffle and both were just okay. I could barely taste the espresso in the latte, very bland. The waffle wasnt anything special; I only ate half. For the price, and for it being inside the Adolphus I was just hoping for better quality.

Katherine M.

Yelp
This place is overpriced!!! The coffee tasted so bad I honestly would have rather spent my money at Starbucks.

YE B.

Yelp
Decent coffee but service was very poor from the woman at the register. There was also some false advertising as the Cortado on the big menu above the bar said it was 4$, but her register rang it up as 5. I noticed and pointed out that a Cortado said it was 4 dollars and she just tersely told me that she had no way to change it. Perhaps not, but that is false advertising plain and simple and although I know she just works there and doesn't own the place, that's poor service. One star, fix your menu!

Jennifer D.

Yelp
I was in town for work and went here to grab coffee and lunch. The prices are a bit high in terms of their food. I got a cold brew coffee and it was good, not the greatest I've had but good. I enjoyed the atmosphere there and there were some good places to get some work/emails done.

Chelby R.

Yelp
The best cup of coffee in downtown Dallas. A few coworkers and I stumbled across this place a few months ago and it was love at first cup. Anytime that I go into the office, I make sure to get a hazelnut latte from Otto's. It brightens my day.

Yelp
I really like the vibes here. Very modern & sleek of an atmosphere. Loved the pistachio white mocha !
