A nice, hip, little place in downtown Tulsa. Their coffees are a step up from their competitors. Definitely a must-try for a specialty drink!

Wonderful service cute name but the black cup of coffee (Colombian blend) was not good. The chai was luke warm and very spicy. The atmosphere was a miss as well. Not very warm and inviting.

This is my cherished neighborhood coffee spot. The space has solid and wide wooden tables, wifi and music that is just right for studying, working or a nice coffee meetup. The coffee is strong and lovely. Friends seem to enjoy the tea. I like that there is always parking available out front or on the side of the building. I feel welcomed every time I visit. They have a rewards program and after collecting enough stars, you get a free drink. You can also use your LocalOK card here for discounts.

Im convinced the person who made our order was either brand new or just didnt know what they were doing. We ordered 2 lattes, one with regular milk and the other with almond, and they were the WORST drinks weve ever had in our lives. I dont know if the coffee was bad, burnt, or whatever, but it wasnt even palatable. The almond milk they chose to use just tasted....bad. It was supposed to be a quick stop so we dumped the coffee and moved on. We are not from the area but I vow to give this place a second chance if were ever in Tulsa again.

A great little coffee place. Perfect for reading and catching up on work.

Really cool coffee shop on the southern side of downtown Tulsa. Plenty of space to spread out and work, great coffee, and decent food choices. The staff is courteous and service is fast. I might prefer some more comfortable seating and more power through out the area but its not enough of an issue to cost it a star.

Review №13

A modern/hip coffee house in downtown Tulsa serving specialty brews and snacks. Really comfortable as a work space to just sit down and enjoy some coffee while studying away. The food didnt particularly impress me, and the coffee is what you would expect of a specialty coffee house. Still I would recommend stopping by if you are looking for something a little more than your average cup of joe.

Cute vibe inside, but i found the coffee to be okay and a lil overpriced, barista was a bit rude, too.

Review №15

Really enjoyed it! The guy helping us took the time to explain the differences in coffee to my husband. They make their own syrups and I went with a macchiato with the rose option. It was so delicious. They also do really great breakfast as well. I had the breakfast bowl and the chili sauce was fantastic. Definitely will come back again.

Iced latte wasn’t bad, tried the breakfast bowl which would have been good with the chili twist had the potatoes been fully cooked, should have just stuck with the coffee. Quaint atmosphere though

An excellent shop with my favorite selection of breakfast options in Tulsa when it comes to getting great quality coffee as well as food. The staff were very informative and welcoming (which was a plus since we drove 11 hours to get their).

Beautiful, industrial space with a variety of seating options - from bar stools to well-worn leather couches. Great drinks with a variety of options: dairy alternatives, homemade syrups, locally roasted coffee pour-overs. Delicious food menu as well. Breakfast served daily -- highly recommend the Green Eggs and Ham, featuring fresh mozzarella and pesto!

Review №26

Walking into this space you feel the vastness that is Foolish Things. Its like a beautiful mess hall of espresso goodness. Their long tables can easily accommodate enough people for say a client meeting, or if you need to unpack your entire office onto a table you can pretty much do that too.The attitude at Foolish Things is light, which makes sense because its a family owned business. So if youre someone who likes to spread your wings while ya work, Foolish Things is the spot for you. AND just as an added bonus, the shop is in the Cathedral District, which is just seconds away from downtown.

Review №30

First time there. Nice customer service and the coffee (mocha latte) was very tasty. We also got a breakfast burrito and a breakfast bowl, both of which were very tasty! Def recommend either of those.Only thing that kind of ruined our experience is that the food took almost 20 mins or more to come out to us, so by then out coffees were pretty much gone. Now they were super busy but everything seemed a little chaotic and unorganized. Twice someone came out to us with food asking if this is what we ordered. Which it wasnt. It really didnt upset us to much, we didnt need to rush or anything and they apologized a lot for the delay.Our food eventually came out to us and we enjoyed every bite.Would go back.

We just stopped by (our first time) after getting to town and reading all the good reviews. Very cool looking inside, but other other than that, this was a huge disappointment. Not sure if the girl at the counter was new or just having a bad day, but she barely spoke to us. Our drinks were the biggest disappointment of all (which makes us think something was off this morning b/c that doesn’t seem like the norm based on reviews). Latte tasted like watered down coffee. Bummer.

Review №33

The café décor trends toward minimalist industrial style. I was hesitant to stay to drink my coffee because a wide open space with polished concrete floor usually meant lots of echoing noises, but on the morning of my visit, everybody in the café was very respectful of the atmosphere and kept noises to a minimum.My coffee--a breve in my preferred 8 oz size--tasted uneasily acidic. Not even the half-and-half in the breve was able to make that taste more enjoyable. Its definitely not Starbucks-like or Lavazza-like, and sadly its not my kind of beans.

The chairs are sooooo loud! Talk about killing the vibe. Metal chairs with no foot buffers on a concrete floor. A loud skreeeetch when you slide it out to sit down is the worst part of this otherwise great place for coffee.

Review №45

This was such a fun experience!! My wife desperately wanted to find a place that would serve her coffee with coffee art :). You know, where they make some sort of fun design with the cream at the top of your cup! We live in a small town and dont have anywhere here that does this. Well, she got her coffee art and was so happy! And... they have incredible breakfast as well! Fresh made quiches, tarts, breakfast burritos, pastries, etc!! Highly recommend!

Foolish Things Coffee Company is a modern downtown cafe and event space. They serve specialty, fair trade coffee and espresso, and homemade fare while providing their customers with an unique, cozy atmosphere. Foolish Things is a wonderful venue to meet with a book group, work remotely, or relax with a friend. Overall, this coffee house is probably the best in Tulsa and serves up some of the best brewed coffee in and espresso you can find. It is also a huge bonus that Foolish Things is a completely local shop and it is operated by friendly, knowledgeable staff.

I can’t positively say—foolish has stood the test of time. There is no other shop in Tulsa that has provided the consistency in quality as Foolish! Even though they are a multi-roaster I have never received a poorly extracted drink. Thanks Foolish!

It was okay, their food wasnt good at all. Didnt have much flavor at all. I got their vegetable hash and the potatoes where flavorless and the egg still had uncooked egg whites...not a fan of runny egg whites honeslty. I also had their iced chai tea latte and it was okay not worth the almost $5 for a 16oz over spiced tea but their American was really good.

Review №61

This spot is interesting. Airy and spacious. They have some interesting food offerings. Good sandwiches and pastries. Coffee is decent. Its definitely more trendy for the college crowd. I prefer something more cozy and eclectic, but this is still a pleasant place to sit, relax, read, or study. Baristas are very nice here as well.

Stopped in on a weekday morning for a quick shot of espresso and a coffee to go.This is a really nice space with great coffee drinks and a very friendly and knowledgeable staff. It happened to be Halloween morning and the folks there where in the spirit of the holiday with great costumes and attitudes.They now also serve beer, wine and mixed drinks so what could be a better combo than that?Highly recommended!

I really enjoy my experience when I visit foolish things coffee. Its my favorite coffee shop for having a meeting with someone because they have large tables. Their food and coffee are excellent. another thing that makes the shop Stand Out Among the others is that they have plenty of free parking right next door. One of these days when the weather is nice I am going to have to enjoy their outdoor seating as well.

Absolutely love studying here! Very bright & open with lots of table space and a good number of outlets. Coffee is an A+ and the employees have always been nice. Ive shared tables with people I dont know because everyone is very chill and friendly. Just remember that they close earlier on weekends :)

Review №72

Outside bike racks with nearby outside tables. Several tables that could be good work spaces inside. Nice decor, great coffee. They actually have Truvia, which is a nice change. Tried the iced cocoa-infused cold brew.; with a small tip it was $7, which is a bit steep for me, but it was good. Easy to access from the Midland Valley Trail if you are running or riding (and only about .5 away). If you start from 106/Elm, it is exactly a half-marathon to their door: what a way to celebrate!

Review №75

The customer service and atmosphere are great. However if you go on a hot day when it’s busy you will probably have to share a table with someone or sit outside. The seating is mostly arranged for large groups. The chai latte I ordered was one of the best I’ve ever had. Will be back just maybe at a less busy hour

This is a very cool and hip place downtown. The food was excellent and tastes really fresh. Coffee fixings were kind of awkward how spaced out the place is but overall this was a cool place that had the wifi password on the chalkboard menu so you dont have to ask. Really friendly and relaxed and great staff, great food, comfy chairs and cool location. Do yourself a favor and check it out!!

By far the best coffee shop in Tulsa. I would recommend trying their iced vanilla chai tea latte! They have very clean and friendly service. The environment of the shop is very relaxed and the prices are not inflated. As Tulsa’s coffee empire steadily grows, Foolish Things tends to stay on top!

Review №93

This restaurant/bar is so great, very nice atmosphere. The narrow shape of the space has a wonderful hole-in-the-wall feeling to it. My friend and I spoke with the owner and got recs for their specialty mixed drinks; I had the Bijou - SO GOOD. I will be trying a different drink every visit, that is certain. I got some veggie/egg benedict/biscuit thing. I cant even describe how good it was. The presentation was excellent, the sauce was bomb, and dont get me started on the biscuits. Those things were so thick! and soft! and just perfect. I am getting hungry just thinking about it. I will say as a side note that the service was lacking somewhat - we were trying to get the bill for a little bit and instead of getting us separate checks, like I had asked, the bartender split the bill down the middle. That isnt a huge deal, but it was a little irritating.Overall experience 10/10 will return.

Great service, always friendly and quick to help. A really cool, cozy atmosphere that makes good use of its space. The food is alright, and their coffee is pretty good! My only drawback is theres no free WiFi; its right across from TCC, which means it would be a great place to go study, but youll have to get a hotspot if you do!

Service was great, however, item requested left a little to be desired. The java jacket was not near enough to keep my hand from being burned, and my cup was filled to the brim causing every step I took to have it spill all over my hand and burn me. It did taste very good though. So great flavor, and service, poor ergonomics.

Good atmosphere for a coffee shop. While I appreciate the long communal tables, it can be difficult to meet someone here, as result. Also working alone is sometimes a challenge if you have to sit down between individuals. Just wish there were more individual tables as well.
