cute cafe for the ceramic studio vibes. The part I loved the most is that you can drink your coffee and water out of the ceramic mugs that the studio made.

It’s a nice work space and coffee cafe. Unique vibes, art pieces are well chosen and it definitely has a good feel to the place. The coffee is pretty good, a 8.0 cortado, they use La Columbe Coffee and it suffers from the same pitfalls as their roasting but overall is was a good cup. The milk work was above average.

So cute! The coffee and bacon, egg, and cheese croissant were delicious. All the plates and cups were handmade and adorable!

great ambiance, kind folks, perfect spot for a glass of wine + bites thurs-sat evenings (try the burrata + onigiri). they've got great vinyls on deck and lots of pantry goods/ceramics to choose from, too! I also like this space for daytime caffeine and work. they have two small tables in front and lots of small tables / a couch area to choose from inside

Cozy cafe with coffee and light snacks. Had an excellent flat white here. Loved the airy interior and plethora of ceramic dishes. Art classes in the back and next door!

I just visited Artshack Cafe and I'm totally blown away. The barista was incredibly friendly and welcoming, making the cozy (but slightly cramped) space feel warm and inviting. The food and coffee were amazing. I had the best ham and cheese croissant. Definitely adding this place to my favorites list.
