My body my choice does not apply here I was forced to wear a mask even though I have an excuse to not wear one.

Good, consistent coffee. Average price. Perhaps not the best in Atlanta, but a cute spot to hang out. Their chorizo and egg hand pie was pretty good. Parking around the coffee shop is hard to find, but they do have a small parking lot with a few spots.

Very bright flavor profile to their espresso. Had an Americano that was decent and a vegan donut that were pretty delicious. The vibe is ok, but not a place I would want to meet up with someone or stay and study at *shrug*.

Top three coffee shops ever for both me and my coffee addicted girlfriend! Their coffee was amazing! The space was very cool as well. Can’t wait for shops like this to be back in full swing where we can hang out, congregate or work. Service was great and the local artwork for sale gave a very nice homey feel.

Always a good experience. Well made cortado and the baristas are friendly. Good pastries as well but they sell out quickly. Definitely a spot to check out if you’re into third wave coffee.

The coffee is amazing and strong! The space is very modern and Instagrammable, if youre into that kind of thing. There isnt a lot of parking in the lot, but you can probably find street parking nearby.

The coffee here was amazing however, the lack of accessibility unfortunately tainted my experience. There is no handicapped parking. Also, it was extremely difficult for me to access the outdoor seating in my wheelchair. The entry for outdoor seating is blocked by bike parking. The other side is blocked by heavy outdoor planters. Thankfully a customer that saw me struggling was able to move the planters out of the way so I could access the tables. Its clear that accessibility was not a priority when creating the cafe.  Id look forward to coming back if my experience was better.

Review №17

I hadnt been to Chrome Yellow in years and it has gotten better! I used to live behind the coffee shop in a condo community so I would drop by for an easy morn ing coffee. At that time the menu was limited adn they had clothing and accessories that occupied most of the interior space. I revisited just a week ago and found that the menu has gotten longer and more of the space is dedicated to seating with only a small section for shopping. Would recommend though it seems to get busy so you may not find a seat!

Surprisingly good batch coffee. Plenty of seats and tables - including outdoors - in a minimalist space. Also shop selling notebooks, coffee related magazines, candles and more. Will definitely be heading back when I’m in Atlanta again. Also close to great restaurants and bars if you want to transition later in the day.

Chrome Yellow Trading was my base for a couple of days while attending a conference. Lucky to have rented an Airbnb across the street. The staff was terrific and coffee/pastries great. It can get very crowded at times, and that is awesome. I like meeting local people that love good service and coffee.

Review №25

One of the most elite coffee spots in the city, this chic and elegant shop has an undeniable uniqueness to it. With a neat store selling ATL designed swag, near-perfect natural lighting, and an asymmetric layout, the space is memorable (there’s also outdoor seating).After many trips I can say easily that the coffee is superb - and while not huge, the pastry selection is surprisingly diverse and always tasty.With excellence comes cost, and CYTC is no exception - $6 for a small iced mocha w/soy. So be prepared for that. Parking is also limited. Ultimately, the ambiance (great focused study vibes) mixed with the product make it worth the money for me.

Review №30

I visited some coffee shops in Atlanta but this one is where I want to go back! The smell, the trendy-industrial ambience, the layout itself. The black, the concept...The first thing I look at when I go somewhere is the design, and this place got all my attention. The jackets, the hangers, the racks, the old fashioned motorcycle... everything! And the most important: the coffee and bakery were something to remember!It made me recall my years at architecture school.. the vibes, the energy! This coffee shop is the best!! And staff is friendly and with a positive attitude.

My family and I were visiting from out of town. I came to Chrome Yellow for some coffee and was pleasantly surprised by the interior - lots of natural light, great seating that’s got plenty of space between you and your neighbor. Sadly they were out of their nitro brew but the cold brew was super good. The employees were friendly and helpful. One even went out of her way while I tried to shove my baby’s stroller out of the way and held the door open for me. Much appreciated!

Trendy coffee shop with excellent oat lattes and good food selections. They also have a selection of craft sodas which looked tempting. Small parking lot in front with off-street parking available. Highly recommended!

Gorgeous interior, d e l i c i o u s coffee. I got the chicken sausage panini and the seasonal maple oat latte and was delighted with both. If I lived in Atlanta, I may never leave this place. Super cool merch as well. I had to physically stop myself from buying a banner, mug, tee, and poster.

Review №35

Consistently the most enjoyable pulls of espresso I have found in the city. Everything is always dialed in properly for an intense aroma, full body, and long finish. Other coffee shops in the area could learn a thing or to from the pros behind the counter here. Also, the latte art is pretty much flawless if thats something that is important to you!

Excellent coffee shop. This will be my new go-to place. Their chai latte was perfect, there was plenty of comfortable seating, and we had great natural lighting to read. On top of that, the parking was easy. If youre looking for a good coffee shop without the overly hipster attitude, go here.

Fabulous coffee, great space, a couple of tables outside to sit. I thoroughly enjoyed my cappuccino both days. They have pastries too from other bakeries; the danish was decent but I did not like the empanada at all... but if its a coffee youre after this is the place

I’m sure the coffee may be great, but customer service is I guess, circumstantial based on how you look. Out of the times I’ve entered here I’ve never felt welcomed bc of the nicety attitudes I received. Iykyk

Review №45

Great coffee shop! Limited parking up front (4 spaces), but you can park on the street. Amazing space, lots of seating options. Outlets every where. Strong, easily accessible wifi. Delicious coffee and pastries. A few panini options for breakfast and lunch pre-made). Non-alcoholic cold beverages and a few canned beers. The staff is friendly and helpful. The music is fairly loud, so not ideal for conference calls or serious meetings, but the perfect place to work and chill.

Worlds best coffee. One of my favorite haunts in the ATL. Such great atmosphere and incredible music. Baristas are friendly and drinks are reasonable. Can be hard to find seating but the vibe is so good it’s hard to keep folks away and such. 10/10. I’ll be here most weekends.

Review №47

Really chic and modern vibe but with rustic industrial decor. Despite being completely full, it had a relaxing and chill atmosphere. Drip coffee was enjoyable, and they have some interested goods to browse. Baked goods seemed a tad pricey, but I didn’t try them so perhaps they’re worth it.

The interior gives me this plant lovers, natural light loving vibe. Hipster-ish? Its nice. Its a place Id go to read a book, have an extended brunch, listen to a podcast maybe? Its just relaxing atmosphere.Vibe rating: 5Coffee is up there! Its definitely in my top 3 with East Pole and Prevail. Ive never actually bought whole beans from them, but that should change soon.Coffee rating: 5Their merch is also solid which many arent Chrome Yellow Co specific. Just all around solid place and my favorite place in terms of looks.

This is a really cute coffee shop for the neighborhood. The ladies that work there are really friendly. You can quickly grab a coffee. The parking is extremely limited. There is maybe four spots. If you are walking in the neighborhood its the perfect stop. There are two picnic tables out front period if you need to sit for a while without worrying about catching coronavirus they are great for that. There is also some street parking.

Been here more times than I can count at this point! their chai is super good, their sandwiches are even BETTER (for real tho you have to try the egg sandwich or the tofu sandwich, tofu isnt on the menu but just ask if they have it) and its a good place to get some work done. it gets a little hectic during finals season but otherwise Im actually very productive there! on the pricier side of cafes but if you want to run out and grab food elsewhere theres plenty of nearby, walkable options in Edgewood

Seriously one of the best coffee shops I’ve been to. The staff were kind and conversational. They helped us pick out a blend of coffee beans (they carry methodical coffee and stumptown coffee 🙌). The vibe is clean, modern, spacious, and inviting. 10/10 would be here every day if i lived in Atlanta. I can’t recommend this place enough!

Great spot with good vibes and quality coffee. Usually plenty of space, WiFi, and a great location just off Edgewood in Sweet Auburn. I come here fairly often to read and write, and have always been able to plug my computer in, focus, and relax. Arguably the best coffee shop in the neighborhood along with Condesa.

I would give this place a 5 star for a single employee, alone. But thankfully the coffee is great as well. Im not even sure of the baristas name, but he was extremely kind and thoughtful giving recommendations. The only downside to this shop is the parking. (good luck)

CYTC opened when I had already moved away from Atlanta, so I started dropping by for coffee back in 2015. They started roasting their own beans after operations began, but continued to sell other roasters’ beans. They rep the Atlanta and southeast region so effortlessly while also displaying beans from much farther away (Brandywine from DE). Prices are competitive, pastries are delicious, baristas are always friendly, pourovers be poppin.

If you’re a hipster that wants overpriced coffee, go here. Similar to wine connoisseurs who taste cheap wine under the impression that it’s expensive, remark on the impeccable taste and aroma. Same here.

Review №86

I wasnt able to stay for long, but I loved my short visit at Chrome Yellow early this winter. The shop was just about to close for the night, but the fellow behind the coffee bar made sure to spend time on us. He told us about the coffees the shop offered, what was still available (because it was late in the evening), and which coffee might be a good fit for what we were looking for. (This is what salespeople are *supposed* to be like! Good listeners, educational, and out for your best option.) The guy sold us two cartons of cold brew to take home, and we loved what we tasted! My husband and I had never had cold brew before, and Ive been meaning to come back for more!We moseyed around the shop a little, too, before leaving. It was all too pricey for me right now, but Id be interested in hearing about how the quality and sturdiness matches up to the price tag. Im reaching the point in my life where Id rather pay more for something thats going to last, and Im curious to hear more about whether the clothing sold at Chrome Yellow fits the bill. I cant comment on that for now, though.Again, GREAT service, excellent coffee, and Im looking forward to when I can make it out to the area again for some more cold brew! I have 0 complaints whatsoever from my short stop at Chrome Yellow.
