A true coffee lover will never settle for a quick coffee if it compromises flavor and quality. You can for sure almost never find a true coffee snob visiting a fast food chain for their dose of caffeine. Here you go, coffee snobs. I see you.

I've only tried the pastries here and the pastrami croissant is delicious. Their ham and cheese croissant is also good. The chocolate chip cookie is big and thin. The staff are friendly and there's plenty of seating inside this warehouse coffee shop.

Bar Nine is unique and recommended! They don't use espresso machines. Rather, they pour premade espresso shots from a glass bottle filled with their own roasted and blended beans. They have a menu of four different flavor blends. You can choose to have the drink hot or cold, lattes, cappuccino, etc. the most interesting part is the drinks, including to go, are served in mason jars with lids you keep, or the shop can reuse. I suggest if you get a hot drink ask for it extra hot. I'm going to return to try another blend and get a bottle of espresso to make cold drinks and maybe an expert martini at home! The barista was extremely friendly and explained the process. As others have said it's not a fast Starbucks process. It's very relaxed, hipster in a good way place. It's a destination coffee shop. If you don't live or work within walking distance, or it's along your drive path, it takes effort to drive there and find parking in its residential neighborhood. Thankfully it's not hard to find parking. I enjoyed Bar Nine and will return.

Super aesthetic coffee spot where you can either grab & go or sit down. Free WiFi + bathrooms as well which is always a MAJOR plus. I got the iced vanilla matcha latte and it was fantastic. Of course, they are known for their coffee- they prebatch their espresso and the ambiance is comparable to a bar: you see your drink made in front of you. My barista for the day was Austin, and he was full of positive energy that honestly made my day. He walked me down the process and concept of the place. So glad this is around the corner from my office- I'll definitely be back!

Love the ambiance of the space and the coffee is solid. They also serve ceremonial grade matcha. As someone who values aesthetics the ice cubes are very visually pleasing. If you order your coffee to go you get it in a glass jar and if you bring back the jar they will waive the $1 glass jar fee on your next order.

Ambiance: it's super spacious inside the establishment, high ceiling, office and storage in the back, and coffee shop upfront, which serves as a combined mass production manufacturer for coffee beans and cafeteria for simple food, cozy and relaxing vibes Service: very friendly and patient with questions Drink: simple menu for seasonal specialty BONBON - **** Gerba, Natural Guji, Atitian, Guatemala Washed, interesting flavors, recommend FLORA - *** Idido Washed Yirgacheffe, sour taste Price: each coffee costs about $6, credit card payment only

Bar Nine, which was used to be known more for Chemix specialty pour-over, is now focusing on espresso-based drinks. You choose beans Bonbon (chocolatey), Fruta (fruity), Flora (floral), or decaf by Pure Espresso to order your espresso drink (shot of espresso, latte, cappuccino etc.). They also have espresso flight to taste the different beans. Matcha is Nekohama brand. Con: I am more of a pour-over person and sometimes occasional creative sweet latte, so their offerings are bit different from what I usually like to order from a coffee shop. The atmosphere is very industrial and warehouse-like, which I found it to be too open for my liking. Pro: Gratuity-free model! To-go comes in a jar with deposit system. A variety of beans to select for espresso-based drink is something I haven't heard before (usually you see it for pour-over). If you are into espresso-based drink but with good beans, they offer latte, cappuccino, or other espresso drink without tons of frills and sugar, this place must be a great place to explore your taste buds!

Pro: great and welcoming service, good lighting, aesthetic. Grow: outlets for working, parking. Bar nine has been on my bucket list for quite some time. I finally got to visit at 11 am on a weekday. I had such a hard time finding it as a delivery truck was covering the entrance. Once I arrived I was surprised by the amount of space and natural lighting. The baristas were very welcoming and I enjoyed my stay overall. There were very few outlets which makes it difficult to work from here for more than a few hours. There is street parking for 2 hours and some metered parking spots which were hard to find! Drinks: they have three different varieties to choose from (check blackboard). I opted for a cappuccino with a floral forward taste. The coffee did not disappoint as it was well balanced and strong. I am actually really sensitive to caffeine but love coffee. This coffee kept me up all night so you know it was strong! Overall, this is a nice and welcoming cafe to enjoy a nice coffee.
