What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"The space itself is beautiful and the staff was very sweet, but the atmosphere wasn’t for me. The music was extremely loud with a playlist that felt more suited to a bar, and the smoothies didn’t seem to be made from real fruit. I couldn’t handle staying for long."
"Came here on a Monday afternoon. Ordered an iced espresso which was a Lavazza Brand- it was good. Nothing out of this world but for a simple coffee -no complaints. The ladies were nice at the counter and the place is fun when enjoying a corner seat"
"Wanted to give this a good review, but they had a menu of lots of cold drink options and most of them weren't available. So I gambled on a cold Chai Boba drink. The young lady started by taking a couple minutes to type on her phone before making my drink. Then I paid and wasn't offered a receipt. The drink itself is very weak and the Boba is seemed almost nonexistent and has zero flavor. Seems old. After getting to the bottom, I saw all these Boba bubbles stuck together, which I've never seen in a Boba drink before. Not impressed with this drink. Should have stuck with a tried and true latte. I'll come back and give it another try. Could have just been a bad experience. The place looks like it has potential, especially if they can get all the drinks on the menu from their service provider!"
"I really enjoyed my visit to Qargo Coffee Lafayette. The space feels modern, cozy, and perfect for working or just relaxing with a drink. The baristas were super friendly and made my latte just right. Prices are a bit on the higher side, but I think the atmosphere and quality make it worth it. Definitely a spot I’d come back to when I’m downtown."
"From the moment I walked in , it was an amazing atmosphere & vibe , I love the architectural look , the smiling baristas HUGE shout out to Quinn , had tried 3 different hand crafted drinks all super fabulous , favorite was a frappe (caramel by choice) I love the fact I could actually taste the coffee in it & must I say phenomenal is an understatement for the new coffee shop !!!! sorbets = TOP NOTCH !! Must have in the summertime for sure !! I also tried a can drink out of curiosity , it was the iced tea with rose petals lemon , I’ve never been a fan of sparkling anything but this was lovely & refreshing !!"
"Tried their matcha latte, barista went above and beyond. Made me a strawberry matcha that was not on the menu. It could have been more creamier and less..."
