My friends joke that I am at Outside Coffee more than my own house and I cant argue with that. I love the aurora of this place so much. The coffee is always great, the baristas are so kind, and the atmosphere is wonderful. Ive been coming more and more because 1) I live in the area and 2) its one of the few public places during the pandemic that I feel genuinely safe in. Ive truly never had a bad experience here and am so proud to be a regular!
Went here for the first time with a friend and it was great. I wish they had more flavor options for drinks, but I understand they can only do so much. It was such a beautiful place (and filled with dogs). It was so different from a regular coffee shop. Theres something comforting about being outside and enjoying the company of not only the people around you, but the scenery as well.A plus: they have different kinds of seating and hammocks which is pretty cool :3
This is a great little spot. Today I had the espresso milkshake. The flavor was perfect for a warm fall day! I usually get hot chocolate with espresso in it. The flavor is always on point. The staff is friendly and the atmosphere is pleasant.
I love the golden milk. It is a fun unique spot for warm drinks
First time here! They had milk alternatives and delicious coffee. Other drink options outside of coffee too, including milkshakes! Loved the outdoor setup with igloos, fire places and hammocks. I noticed many people on computers so assuming they have WiFi as well. They enforced state guidelines on face masks and social distancing although outside, which was appreciated. Would recommend!
I absolutely loved coming here! My friends and I came here in the winter and it was snowy and cozy. There are heaters inside of the little bubbles that you can sit in and you order from the truck. They have a variety of options and the service is very good but a little slow. The atmosphere is so pretty, it is such a great place
Love that I can drink a coffee with my dog - and he likes the dog ice cream :-) very cute space even without the doggone awesomeness
A garden type setting in the heart of the city. Quiet and relaxing oasis to sit and savor your favorite hot or cold beverage. Friendly staff.
Its a nice place. The environment and ambiance here is five stars, but everything else is four stars. The menu items and selection are pretty decent. I had a couple different drinks and they were both ok nothing overly amazing. The price is fair I believe and the attendants at the coffee truck were both really nice. I think Ill be coming back for the nice environment alone.
LOVE this amazing and niche space. Such an experience every time you go. They have hammocks and fires in the fall and winter. They usually will have igloos when its cold as well. They have a great selection and some great food. Their ice cream is vegan and so good. Theyve got some good non-coffee options as well. They always have seasonal options which are really good. All seating is outside. Great place to study outside and have a coffee, or catch up with friends!
Love the outdoor space. Great community and drinks.
This is a great utilization of open outdoor space. Popular meeting place. Nice garden setting. Will return!
Nice people, great outdoor space, we were able to find residential street parking close by.
Contrary to listed hours, they close at 5 pm, not 7 during the week.Sadly, I drove quite a distance looking forward to an iced honey lavender latte to find the gate locked. 😩
Vibe is 100. Orange Rose Matcha Latte on the spring specials menu? Also 100. Perfect place to grab your morning cup and sit outside in the sun. Was in town for just the weekend and went here three times. Got a bag of coffee to take home and the coffee drinker in our household reports that it is sublime!
Such a comfortable, quiet, and lovely place. Very friendly staff with lots of comfortable seating, yummy pastries the vegan chocolate ice cream affogato ‼️❤️‼️
Outside Coffee Co is such a community space. They provide everyone with a welcoming environment to retreat with a coffee, ice cream, or food and take a much needed outdoor break. I have enjoyed trying a few different menu items and they all surpassed my expectations. The eco friendly cups and cool aesthetic only make them better.
Amazing outdoor space for socializing and enjoying the beautiful weather! They have very cool drink options and vegan ice cream which is a major bonus!
Super cute and friendly atmosphere! Not overly impressed with the lavender latte though.
Great ambience! Love the gardens and seating options.
Super cute outdoor space to enjoy coffee. We rented an igloo and it was well worth it. No cost to reserve and they’re heated but recommend reserving at least a week in advance. Coffee was very good as well and close to lots of other local stops!
I enjoyed my lavender honey iced latte with coconut milk and my pup loved her doggo. Such a fun and sweet place to enjoy a beautiful day!
This place is so cute! As I was visiting the area, I really enjoyed the experience here. The lattes are very sweet. So if you dont enjoy a sweet latte, I would choose a different beverage. I love that they had mini heating units inside the igloos that were warm enough that we didnt freeze, but not too hot so we didnt burn. Inside the igloo, our group enjoyed the seating. All 8 of us could sit comfortably and enjoy our beverage!
Good drinks and a nice variety of seating! Often super busy when I come so you have to wait a bit if you’d like to sit somewhere but the atmosphere is nice so it’s worth it!love the music selection too
Great coffee and cute outdoor seating but be aware that you may be approached by a homeless man asking you to buy him coffee. This happened to me and I was happy to buy him a coffee, however, when I gave him his coffee he kept pressuring for money and it made me feel uncomfortable. It seems to be a common issue there because the staff apologized and seemed to know the guy by name.
This place is worth all the hype. It’s so much fun! Sure, the drinks are a smidge pricey, but not when you consider that the ambiance is included! Such a charming spot! Love the geodesic domes & other creative seating including hammocks & Adirondacks gathered around fire pits. Lovely foliage around the gravel pathway.TIP—> you can snap the QR code to reserve the geodesic dome (with a small heater inside), or plan ahead & dress warmly if it is cold out.TIP—> pups are welcome! I can’t wait to have a puppy playdate here!TIP—> stop in next door at Woosah for a fun & funky artist’s cabin vibe. Artwork, clothing, & outdoor gear (including some items for furry friends). The same gal owns & operates both, & does a phenomenal job!
Very diverse and friendly crowd, and I mean crowd
Friendly staff good coffee grate atmosphere definitely visit here when in grand rapids area
Fun atmosphere with a laid-back vibe. Perfect outdoor location for a casual coffee.
A truly lovely experience! The service was excellent. The coffee was very good. The fire side seating is very nice, and the igloos (there are three) are quiet and relaxing, perfect for a nice conversation with friends. A reservation gives you 30 minutes.
The coffee is top notch, the atmosphere is one-of-a-kind, and the service is excellent. They have done an awesome job with COVID safety, and their outdoor seating is great. I recently went when it was 19 degrees and stayed comfortable - especially since we reserved a tent! Highly recommend!
Love this spot. Good coffee. Great community and management that I trust!
So good I bought two different coffees in one day!
The person that took our order was very nice and helpful. She was busy but yet patient with each customer and filled order quickly.
An awesome place to sit outside year round. Great coffee, hammocks, swinging chairs and heated igloos in winter. What more do you need?
Chill atmosphere and good coffee. They’ve done a great job with seating and landscaping. For the winter they’ve got gas fire pits and for the pandemic they have a couple domes with heaters you can reserve ahead of time.
Easily one of my favorite spots in Grand Rapids. Amazing atmosphere, great menu. Also a great location with lots of cute shops around.
A pleasant environment that allows dogs and has a variety of seating options. The staff is always nice and efficient.
Great coffee, unique atmosphere, friendly staff, just an all around fun experience! I love coming here no matter the season or weather. They always make my experience enjoyable and one of a kind!
Great place, especially during the warmer months of the year, but they also provide fire pits when the weather is formidable.
During a recent visit, one person in a party of 7 others who had not yet received their coffee had their mask pulled down slightly, not fully covering their nose. The other 7 in the party had received their coffee and were completely unmasked. The member of our party with their mask down SLIGHTLY was harangued and shamed by an employee to adjust their mask. Outside Coffee is good and apparently is so good that having it in your hand is equally effective as a mask. Poor situational awareness on their part.
Really nice atmosphere and coffee. It was nice to have a place to go during the winter and the pandemic, as they had igloos set up that were open to reservations.
Rock stars! Sacred springs Kombucha on tap!
So lovely! The coffee was superb and they had many options that the barista was willing and able to discuss with ease. There was ample seating and so many umbrellas that i would feel comfortable going there in most any weather. Will definitely be going back.
Definitely was outside! Did not disappoint! Oh and the coffee was spectacular to say the least. All jokes aside this has to be my favorite place to snare a cup of joe in GR. The peeps here are awesome and the atmosphere is welcoming always!
They have a niche! And it’s the cutest effing thing I’ve ever seen. Step up and order a coffee -fancy, plain, hot, cold, etc- from a repurposed camper! I had the honey lavender cold brew. My taste buds will never be the same. Grab your coffee and step into a bubble of your choosing. Take a break from your everyday or stop by on your lunch break. An ideal spot to grab that perfect social media moment for all you lifestyle bloggers and photo enthusiasts. Sit back and enjoy some fresh air, and outdoor scenery, with the comfort of the indoors. A light drizzle was icing on the cake for me.
Love. It.I have visited a couple times.Reserved an igloo and it was so cute!Great coffee and friendly employees!
Great service and atmosphere even on a cold spring day.
Unique coffee experience offering a solid cup of coffee as well as other coffee shop staples out of a vintage camper. Its set in a pleasant garden area with seating scattered around, including a couple hammocks and clear bubble-tents with space heaters inside to escape the cold. String lights complete the cost atmosphere. If you want a good cup of coffee outside the walls of a cramped cafe, this is your spot.
Great to be outside! A different, fun place to safely gather :)
Fun place to have a coffee with a friend
Great coffee and matcha, AND vegan ice cream!!! A variety of seating options including heated bubble domes in winter months. Fire pits too. Dogs are welcome and there are porta potties if you gotta go. No indoor seating (that should be obvious from the name though), however they are associated with WOOSAH, the outdoor adventure store adjacent, so if youre cold or want to window shop you can always step inside their shoppe. This place is a favorite of mine.BIPOC & LGBTQ+ supportive!💕 Great people, great coffee, great asthetic. Not sure what more you could want.(Masks required when not seated as of this review on 3.8.21)
Friendly, prompt service, nice outside area to hang out for a while and sip some java.
Great coffee and a cute outside set up that caters to all seasons! Definitely a great spot year round!
Outside coffee is one of my favorite places to get coffee on a Saturday morning with my husband. I usually get the Iced Vanilla Latte and he gets the Mocha and both are delicious and my only complaint is that we drink it too quick! I love the seating areas both in the summer and winter. In the winter they have these nice warm igloos that are the perfect cozy destination and the hammocks in the summer are a nice touch.
Best place to get coffee from a truck! Great coffee garden, music and menu. Check out the Woosah store while youre there!
So nice to enjoy a warm beverage by the fire. Remember to reserve a dome if you want to avoid the wind! Dog-friendly.
Super cozy atmosphere, even in the winter. The menu includes creative and delicious options. I had the chaider, a mix of spiced chai tea and apple cider. It was excellent.
I love this place! Great drinks, the workers are fantastic, and they always have cool events going on. Great place to look at pups and study too! Definitely make a visit to their store connected to the garden, Woosah!
Such a cool place but the lady was super rude.
Wonderful little spot along Wealthy Street. Friendly staff, beautiful garden seating area, and great coffee!
Super cute outdoor setting! Great rent
Awesome place. Good coffee, great area to walk and enjoy downtown life.
A convenient and safe location in the heart of downtown that allows you to bring your pooch. A wide variety of coffee and different drinks couples with good ice cream equals an awesome experience for folks looking to feel some normalcy in times like these.
A little pricey but nice over all
They have such an awesome outdoor space thats perfect in any season - including winter!
A quaint little spot to get a really good cup of coffee in one of the most fun spots in Grand Rapids. The staff is very knowledgeable and they are more than happy to help craft the perfect coffee for you. I also enjoyed that they use eco friendly cups and straws. The ambience is friendly and inviting. Oh! And they allow dogs! Definitely a fun little spot to check out on a sunny winter day.
Little pricey but worth it! The coffee options are spectacular and so delicious! Tons of space for studying outside, comfortable area for friends gatherings, and dog friendly.
So fun! Cute outdoor bistro!
A great experience with great coffee! I got the turmeric drink which was amazing. The outdoor seating is very fun! Staff was very good about enforcing the mask rule during Covid. We had to wear a mask when ordering and walking around but could take it off once we got to our table. I felt extra safe coming here during Covid since its all outdoors!
Great idea and very cute. Would love better space heaters for the igloo...was only warm if you had you hands right up to them. The coffee was not good. But we only had the lattes so I cant judge anything else. Would love to come back in the summer
The outdoor space is cute and fun. My latte and my friends chai were both mediocre.
My sisters, wife, and I decided to check out this place for the first time and we werent disappointed. I definitely recommend sitting in one of the lighted igloos if you can. They all have heaters in them and its fun to sip coffee and on a chilly evening. Wonderful atmosphere here.
