Swing's Coffee

A place for a quick coffee. Their coffee is a dark robusta, which makes it too acidic for my palate. We wanted to get it with a couple of croissants, which weren't warmed through. I didn't find them friendly to customers, and their prices are high for a casual, everyday place.

Charming coffee shop with a nice atmosphere and great decoration. It is hard to put in words what the style is but it reminds me a bit of retro jazz club. Good coffee at a reasonable price and enough space to work from. Highly recommended.

Swing’s serves some of the best coffee in the city. Roasted dark, nutty, and just shy of too acidic, the kind of cup that wakes up your soul and your skepticism. The beans, flown in from Ethiopia, Guatemala, and Costa Rica, clearly traveled better than you did as mandated by GSA travel per diems. The baristas, meanwhile, maintain the quiet confidence of people who know they’re serving excellence and would prefer you not to ruin the vibe by existing. They glide around with the aloof grace of caffeinated monks, and somehow, that indifference makes the experience feel almost holy. It’s coffee worth the attitude. Bring humility — and cash.

A decent cup of chai latte with limited seating in a retro-looking café. Ordering was quick and straightforward, paired with friendly service. The chai was served promptly and balanced well with the oat milk, having a bit more spice than usual but still enjoyable. Although seating options were limited, I managed to snag a spot by the window for some people-watching. The retro vibe of the café added to the experience and made it a pleasant place to wait for my drink.

I’ve been going to this coffee shop since 2012, minus the years they were closed for renovations and COVID. The coffee is excellent. The tea is excellent. The service is excellent. The vibe is excellent in that it’s not trying to be anything other than a coffee shop that’s been around for a long time. 10/10, no notes.

Just a quick stopped by for a cold brew in a hot day. Super fast and great coffee! Also they are one of those few coffee shops didn’t charge extra for oak milk

Very nice coffee shop in a great location. The coffee is not as bitter as the American coffee usually is and the flavor was weak (maybe too little coffee is used in lattes). So if you like mild tasting coffee this is the right place. The pastries are also very tasty. I can recommend the almond croissant.

Paid $11.27 for a small cappuccino and a pastry — and it really wasn’t that good. Especially the pastry was stale. The coffee here is decent, but I found the service not friendly.
