Cultiva Downtown - Coffee shop in Lincoln - 727 S 11th St, USA

Popped in on a Friday at 10:30am and, despite the line and the crowd, we got our food within 5 minutes of ordering! This was such a rare Cultiva experience. Food tasted amazing, as always. 🍳 After that, I went to Cultiva Labs for a pecan pie latte. Day was absolutely made.

We went for breakfast this morning and had a wonderful experience. All of our questions were patiently answered and they didn’t rush us to order. Even though we ordered in one person was able to get their drink in a to go cup. The drinks were ready first and our number was called out with a microphone so it was very easy to hear. There is a table with utensils and condiments next to the cart for the dish return. Drip coffee was “really good”, the chai latte was “excellent”, hot Cubana had cute latte art and “the brown sugar and cinnamon complement their espresso very well”, and the iced Cuban had “super delicious salt cream”. The Johnny cake was better than expected! Great flavor and crunch. The bit of egg on the Lemon bomb crepe added “an extra layer of yum”. We were very pleased that the only bowl is gluten free and can be made vegan.

It was my first time going here. A friend of mine recommended this place to me if you're looking for a great breakfast. The atmosphere has that "small coffee shop" vibe, which I really love. The staff was very kind when asked what they recommend me ordering. I ordered the Cultiva Omelet and a mocha latte. It was very delicious indeed --- Give my compliments to the chef!

***Edit: Seeing as how the owner is very upset that their actions resulted in a one star review I figured I would make everyone more aware of our request. We submitted the order yesterday stating that we were willing to wait as long as required to receive our drinks. They were still very rude and demanded that we not return. We are not entitled to service so we happily found another coffee shop in town that happily provided us with coffee this morning within an hour of our order being canceled! I think it is clear that customer service is not their strong suit but there are plenty of lovely local shops within a few blocks of this establishment! Have been many times. Their coffee and food is great. However, every time we have been they have been incredibly rude. We love to support local businesses and have brought many large orders to this establishment but today we were turned away. The owner asked us to not return, they decided that they don't want our business. I can't imagine turning away business but we were personally called by the owner so they must not need more customers. I guess we will be taking our business to any other shop in town for our coffee. If you are looking for coffee with a smile this is not where you want to go. Save your money and check out The Mill, just as good and they are happy to have your business.

Another amazing spot for great food in Lincoln! I have been craving crepes and when I found this place boy was I excited! They have all different types of crepes with savory or sweet options. I prefer fruit in the morning so I went with that but they also had these delicious seasoned potatoes that we're perfect and I'm glad I tried them!

Ample parking, plenty of menus when u walk in, grab a seat and digest the menu! They’ll call out your number when drinks and food are ready! Drinks and food are just as you ordered, delicious! Even have a cute little kids menu for the Chillos!

Friendly people, good atmosphere, but very unhappy with the quality of the coffee. It all tastes really burnt. The helpful staff are the only reason for 3 stars

I used to go in weekly to get crepes and coffee, was greeted by friendly workers and the crepes were amazing, hot and stuffed to the brim! Here are some of the reasons I stopped going in. Crepes became flat and barely any ingredients inside. The blueberries were like the pie filling kind and still hard almost frozen instead of the usual fresh blueberries. Often times there were inconsistencies in how crepes are made and many times there were missing ingredients and no explanation. Long wait times, 45 minutes to an hour even when not busy. And just in general the vibe became sad and unfriendly. This has not always been the case, I hope things can change because I really love the way things used to be.
