Coffee and pastries with old-fashioned wooden booths
Discovered this place through the little side passage from the bookshop. The way sunlight from the windows fell on the wood paneled walls made for a lovely atmosphere in which to sit and read my newly acquired travel book. The Shaken Espresso (add chocolate + hazelnut) came in a nice glass and well suited my tastes. Quiet enough and comfortable for studying in the old wood booths- easily could spend hours here.
I can count on one hand how many times a year I treat myself to a coffeeshop run. Right before the holidays, I was downtown and needed a pick me up. Haven't been in Jules in years, but it was buzzing as usual and took me back to my college studying days. There were two girls behind the counter. The gal at the counter was so friendly, when I asked for her suggestions she offered two great options. I went with a candy cane cold brew, which was absolutely perfect and delicious. Not too sweet, just strong enough, perfect cold foam, 10/10. But what impressed me most was the service. Previously I worked in coffee/food/beverage for many years. As I continued to interact with the baristas, I started gathering the sweet girl at the counter was a new(er) employee in training. There was a level of respect and patience with the more veteran employee that you don't always see. She got to see how a drink was properly made and I didn't wait any longer than necessary. Clear communication and kindness through the whole process. Keep up the great culture, Jules! I will be back and recommend to others :)
I stopped here as part of a book and coffee crawl with my book club. By then I had three coffees and nothing to eat so I ordered the Pettibone crepe and The Marsh smoothie. Delicious! The staff were very friendly and the atmosphere was great. It's also connected to Pearl Street Books so that's handy if you're looking for a new/used read. Overall, I'll definitely stop here again if I'm in the area.
Our first time visiting Jules Coffee House! I'll definitely be returning for several reasons - they managed busy like a boss! It was Valentine's Day and the crowd was pretty constant. We had a cinnamon roll which was super soft, perfectly baked and the frosting was not super sweet but plentiful. I had a Cortadito - my first one ever and I'm in love! Also had a special of the day - vanilla and cherry latte. My spouse had a hot chocolate. Can't wait to go back and try a crepe. The menu all sounds wonderful but it didn't feel right rushing the kitchen on a day like today! The other lovely thing - Pearl Street Books is right next door, an entrance inside from the coffee shop! ❤️
I took my girlfriend here for one of our first dates recently because she highly recommended it. It had great breakfast food and iced coffee and was buzzing with college-aged people. The staff was friendly and quick to make and deliver our food to the table. The restroom had an interesting quirk with a sink that had two different faucets for hot and cold, but I thought it was cool (no pun intended). Keep in mind, also, that the parking is mainly parallel parking on the street, so be mindful of that if you're like me and have rarely ever parallel parked in your life. Overall, I'd definitely come here again for another breakfast date.
