Artessence Coffee Shop

This coffee shop was a perfect brunch spot. The staff and owner were so welcoming and helpful with deciding on our food and drinks. The shop has a lovely at home atmosphere with art adorning the walls and customers greeting eachother like friends. We ordered the strawberry soda and Colombia pour over with breakfast tacos and a sunrise bowl. The strawberry soda came with a big strawberry ice cube and fresh strawberry puree. The pour over was a wonderful ceremony with the fabulous aroma surrounding the table. It was mild, with a nutty , chocolate finish and not a bitter note in sight. The breakfast tacos and sunrise bowl were delicious. The sunrise bowl could easily feed two. I definitely preferred the sunrise bowl as it included beans, fried potatoes and avocado as well as the egg and chorizo. Definitely a gem in Springfield. The avocado toast looked amazing as well. They do offer breakfast burritos and muffins for a quicker or to go option.

Great stop! Coffee was good and food was amazing. The shop was beautifully decorated and employees were very welcoming. We has the breakfast tacos with corn tortillas and avocado toast with bacon and both were phenomenal - only note is that the corn tortillas needed to be fried or heated because they split/crumbled when we tried to fold the taco. We just ate them with a fork instead 😊 10/10 would recommend!

We stopped by Artessence during one of our Friday exploration walks through Springfield. My husband enjoyed another excellent coffee, and the owner was incredibly kind. It was a brutally hot day with a heat advisory, and when he saw me filling my cup from the complimentary water station, he gave me a cold bottle of water without me even asking. That simple act of kindness meant a lot. Great atmosphere, wonderful coffee, and genuinely caring people. We'll definitely be back!

Love this neighborhood spot, always delicious! Breakfast tacos are my favorite. If you are in a rush they even have a grab-n-go case with baked goods and burritos. Banana bread latte did not disappoint, tastes just like it plus espresso!
