Great coffee, friendly staff. Love the decor. Surprisingly peaceful given that it’s attached to a CrossFit Gym. Great place to do some work or to just read and book and chill out. They don’t skimp on quality; you can tell that they really care about everything they’re producing. A+

Fantastic espresso flavor! Because I only add cream to my espresso the flavor can make or break the drink. Love it here! And the staff is very friendly. And warm atmosphere. Definitely recommend!

We LOVE Ms. Jess at Buffalo Brew. She is always smiling and so friendly. My little girl (9) was impressed that she remembered her order and felt so cool when she said, "Want your regular?" She is the best!

As a massive fan of Rich & Mayhem, I knew about Buffalo Brews, and was excited to try a coffee, but at the heart of it, we came here for the gym, and the chance to check out the facility - but the service here was amazing. The atmosphere was very welcoming, and we felt super comfortable to just hangout. The coffee was awesome, and the protein smoothies were fantastic! Thanks you guys for the great service!
