10/10 experience! My cold brew was amazing and the workers were knowledgeable, friendly, and easy to talk to. The atmosphere was cozy, but open. I’d love to go back in the summer when they have the big garage door up. There’s also a pay to park parking lot right next to it, so parking is convenient(I went around 5pm on a Friday for reference and was able to snag a spot). Overall my experience was great!

Not sure what the deal is. For starters theyre ridiculously hard to find, and secondly, you have to go through a business to get to them. They mustve moved recently. I finally get there and they say theyre not serving or making drinks and only selling beans. Disappointing.

Very nice, small cafe located. They serve great coffee, at a fair price. Sometimes I will sit inside and will enjoy it while I wrote, or take it to go. They are extremely sustainable, which I appreciate, It was a wonderful and unique experience for me. Ive never seen this on any other menu before the Coffee Project!

I love visiting this place whenever I’m in Columbus! Good coffee, great atmosphere! Lots of people come here on their own to work/study or with a friend. It’s not ideal for larger groups to hang out here, since it’s pretty small and often very busy. They must be doing something right!

I went here today on the advice of the concierge at my hotel. It is literally a monsoon outside but I made the walk. The staff were so nice and picked out a great choice of iced coffee for me. It was super good and I highly recommend this location if you are in or near the French quarters.

Came here on a Saturday morning visiting from Austin TX. The place is a bit dinner than I would have liked, but overall its well executed space with good coffee. It was great talking in the morning and reading while local folks worked on their laptops. Coffee is repected here with good pour over and espresso options. Great place overall

Buzzing and happening place.Crawled up and down the Short North area drinking coffee and writing and this is my favorite. Less impressive on the outside but a perfect little shop inside. Good energy in the atmosphere.I am a bit of a coffee snob and they deliver in a big way with their hand brewed coffee. Clean and crisp flavor served by knowledgeable baristas. Sitting and watching morning coffee service I was impressed with a constant obsession with cleanliness and maintaining equipment. If you want to fuss over the cost of coffee - go where it isnt great. Great coffee is $1 a cup.Thanks for a great experience.

My experience was fine. The coffee was fine. It took kind of a long time, but they were pretty busy so it wasnt upsetting. Their atmosphere is an urban/industrial situation - cool if youre into that, but just barely enough seats for their afternoon crowd, and nothing in place to muffle the ambient noise. It was loud and not an especially comfortable place to hang because of the crowd, but the staff was friendly enough. There was a steady stream of regulars coming through who seem to love the place, so its definitely worth checking out for yourself to see if its your jam.My visit was months pre-coronavirus, so the interior situation may be totally different now.

Dude. New favotite coffee shop in Columbus. Awesome atmosphere, rad vibes, and rich flavors. I would go here every day if I could.They are in a nice and easy access location. Great place to drive, walk or bike to. They have a big garage door kind of thing in the front that they open up to the outside world, which is sweet.My dirty chai took about 10 minutes to be made but I wasnt even mad because it tasted so good and was in no hurry.I would highly recomend checking this place out if you like coffee shops. The staff were very friendly and were having lots of conversations with people across the counter.Yeah, check it out. 5/5 stars. Loved it.Thanks for reading.

Review №29

One of the Short Norths new most famous roasters, this location has certainly has become a personal favorite that captures my fancy with a vintage drill press -- thank you!. Most coffee establishments warrant an expectation that you will be delivered what is typically exceptional coffee.Mission Coffee has taken this mandate and delivered unique twists on popular coffee drinks. The new location is a cute, quaint spot with inviting seating, tucked into the heart of the trendy Short North! The very helpful staff (thank you again) has a no-nonsense but friendly approach to delivering outstanding coffee -- on a consistent basis, this location delivers! Those customers who happen to visit at the right moment can watch the roasting process and sip the goodness! Thank you again for believing in the Short North, an ever-changing neighborhood of Columbus!

My first time here at Mission Coffee, mostly because I wanted to enjoy the fresh air. This shop was great for enjoying the warm day because they open the large garage door when its sunny. I ordered an iced vanilla latte for around $5, which was a perfect balance of coffee flavor and vanilla syrup

Like many shops, this one has its highs and lows. As a frequent visitor Ive seen this shop at its best and worst. Staff is rather knowledgeable on the items they carry and preparations of same. Coffee is constantly of high quality. Atmosphere is normally jovial, tending towards studious around OSU exam times. Rather diverse crowd for the neighborhood too.

Review №33

Not a coffee shop for gathering. Very quiet with guest nose down in their laptops and ear buds in...coffee was great, just not a coffee shop vibe, more of a gathering spot for grinders to bang out some code for their start up / freelance gigs. Find another location if wanted to meet for coffee with someone

If a cup of Joe is truly what you crave Mission Coffee delivers. The flavor of the coffee is excellent and the surrounding environment is a restored building that gives back to the community. A local favorite, the available seating can be full at times, but if one is willing to share a table a spot usually pops up.

Overall, a very good coffee shop in the Short North. I ordered a Colombian pourover which was quite good. The prices are just a bit higher than other shops in the area, and Im not sure why the extra expense is justified.

Br
Review №37

Ok, so for starters this place has friendly service and the coffee was genuinely good.However I could not get over the prices. My 10oz iced coffee with almond milk came out to 9$ before tip. That is completely unreal to me. I am a huge supporter of locally owned businesses, ethical and fair trade, etc etc but never in my experience has a single small cup of coffee come out to the same price as a lunch. I know the Short North has some pretty high overhead but this place did not even have air conditioning and was very dark so Im not sure thats justified either. Its fine, but theres plenty of other coffee places along the strip offering the same thing for a better value.

Really chill coffee spot. Stopped in to get a matcha latte and get some work done before heading out of Columbus.The matcha latte was excellent and prepared very quickly. The service was super friendly which really added to the experience.

I started my Columbus Coffee Experience with Mission Coffee Co. today. With buying a drink at four or more coffee shops you can claim a free Columbus Coffee T-shirt. The espresso I had was good and the vibe in here was inviting b/c of the music and the people. Someone who I had never met before chatted with me for a bit. A pleasant surprise for sure since I just moved from Texas a month and a half ago. This place is a good start if you are looking for a place to read and relax!

Review №45

Everyone dreams for something to call their own.For an entrepreneur, it may be a retail space or an online community. For an artisan, it’s the tools and work space needed to create an excellent finished product. For a family, it’s a comfortable and warm place to call home. For us, we share in each of these desires; but it has always involved coffee. We’ve been working in coffee for over ten years, committed to the culture and community that stand behind the importance of a great product. With big dreams and lifelong aspirations come late nights, long hours, and seemingly endless tasks. In everything that we have done and continue to do, we always come back to the most reliable element, our first true love: the coffee.

Mission Coffee is a comfortable place to start your work or school day. The wifi works well and the coffee is awesome My only complaint is that you have to toast your own bagel. The toaster is too small to fit a bagel and the toaster oven looks like something from the 1950s with two dials one for time the other for temperature and nothing for toast. For someone in a hurry this makes for quite an interesting 10-minute process. Of course, Im mostly kidding. Mission is great and people should go there. But also, and know that toasting a bagel can be tough.

Asked for a dash of cinnamon on my vanilla latte, two employees apologized said they dont have any. Go to pick up my coffee and cinnamon is sitting right there. Would had prefer to not been lied to. Apparently the cinnamon is only for signature drinks and they were appalled I asked them to accommodate. I would recommend any other coffee shop in Columbus, where things like cinnamon isnt offensive.

Review №77

First time at mission coffee. It was open at 8:00 am as stated... And it was SLOW, sleepy and sparse... And the coffee was not good. 15 minutes is too long to wait for a simple Mocha. Especially when there is almost nobody else in the place. ESPECIALLY when the atmosphere inside is so silent and subdued that it MUST render people unconscious regularly. Maybe time is slowed down in there, like time inside is trying to run underwater. That at least would explain why the coffee is stale.

Great coffee! However, very disappointed when I asked if they could put some maple syrup in my latte they said no!

Just saying...

Im not even a huge fan of hipster coffee places but this place has some of the best coffee Ive ever tasted. The cold brew is my favorite if you like that sort of thing. Also the staff is really nice, I spilled my cold brew all over myself the last time I was in there. They were cool enough to help clean it up and even gave me about a half glass of cold brew for free since I spilled mine. Thanks so much guys! Anytime Im in Columbus Ill get my coffee here.
