"I ordered a Turkey BLT, which was advertised as coming with mayo, and I asked them to hold the tomato. When the sandwich arrived, it had honey mustard instead of mayo and included tomato. I also asked for honey in my tea, and they forgot to include that. The food was ok, but overpriced for the portion size. Despite all those mistakes, the staff were very friendly and accommodating. The place was pretty packed out, with most of the people who were there when we arrived still lingering when we left."

"Great service, the owner was super friendly and had a great sense of humor. Tried two chai lattes and a blueberry bagel with butter and everything was great. They have a beautiful indoors space this is a great place to get some coffee and food and get some work done on a laptop or do some light reading."

"As a university student who was new to the Baltimore area last year, I decided to explore some dependable, affordable, and local cafes in the area—Koba Café is my wish materialised. Food + menu: Satisfactory range of breakfast/ brunch-appropriate foods with 11 vegetarian options! An extensive range of bakery items and various hot and cold drinks too. Everything is highly affordable, fresh, tasty, and great portion sizes. Atmosphere: Absolutely gorgeous interior. The ground level has seating for parties of two and typically remains uncrowded. The staircase leading to the second floor is accompanies by an array of artwork which is only the beginning of the homey-artistic feel curated on the second floor. The upstairs is typically populated by students or others working and can be crowded depending on the time of day (10 AM - 3 PM). As a result, it is treated like a quiet space so if you would like to chat you may feel more comfortable downstairs. The cafe is at a 4-way crossing, and there tends to be free street parking available outside and on nearby streets. I would highly recommend visiting this cafe!"

"had a very nice conversation with the man behind the bar, who seemed genuinely interested in the well-being of a stranger. the bagel sandwhich I had was exceptional and for 5.50 I thought it was quite reasonably priced. The 2.80 cup of coffee was a steal! Went back today hoping for a repeat and was selfishly sad to see the place closed for the holiday, but consoled greatly at the thought of the staff spending the day relaxing with loved ones."

"Seriously one of the best coffee shops I have been to and I am a huge coffee person who cares about the coffee and environment of the shop. I was greeted very nicely, I believe it might have been the owner of the shop, but he was super friendly, which goes a long way. The cappuccino I had was one of the best ones I have ever had. The espresso they use is amazing and he knew how to make it, not burnt with right amount of foam. The upstairs atmosphere is a wonderful place to study or get work done, which was the main reason I came. Also, the prices were the best I have seen in a long time, especially for the quality you are getting. I will definitely be coming back!!"
