    This was a really cool and unique experience. I've always wanted to learn how to make espresso drinks, like lattes and cappuccinos, and this class will show you exactly how they are made. You will get plenty of hands-on experience with "pulling" espresso shots and making latte art. Louis was a great instructor and he answered all of my questions. I was the only one in the class at the time and I had a great experience. This was something really unique and different and I really learned a lot.

    Where to start! From the amazing, knowledgeable, down to earth instructor (Luis) to the experience of creating your own latte w/ art, the full experience was incredible. 11/10, highly recommend
    Great Experience

    Had a blast. Luis, the instructor, was very nice and we got to use some really high-quality machines and coffee/milk. Being a barista takes a lot of practice, and we were able to go over all the fundamentals.
    Fun, informative class!

    Excellent! Informative!

    Instructor was so chill and relaxed. He broke everything down and made it easy to understand. I thought I would be interested for 15 minutes but I was entertained the whole 2 hours. My home coffee will be much better from now on.
    Fun experience for coffee lovers

    Luis was a knowledgeable instructor. We loved that we were able to attempt repeatedly to create coffees without a set number of attempts. The space could have been more comfortable. It was a 2 hour class- be prepared to stand the entire time.

    The building was unkept and it was uncomfortable navigating the building. Does not look as advertised online. The class itself was great but the location was not.
    Great way to spend an afternoon!

    Got this class as a gift for my husband who has recently gotten very into coffee and wasn't exactly sure what to expect -- but we really enjoyed it and learned so much! Luis was knowledgeable and super approachable, it was really easy to ask him questions and he was always able to offer an answer or help brainstorm solutions. I honestly enjoyed the latte art portion of the class more than I expected and we're enjoying trying out at home the techniques about brewing and art that we learned. The setting is pretty casual, it's just a workspace really, but if you're interested in learning more about espresso I definitely recommend this class!
    great espresso class!

    Luis was a great teacher! We learned so much about making good espresso and then got to learn the basics of latte art. Would highly recommend!
    Cute date idea!
    Suemair_H, Feb 2023
    Great class! Learned a lot of great tips for making espresso and learned how to troubleshoot some of the problems we were having at home. Also got to learn how to froth milk and do latte art which was really fun. Highly recommend this!
    Hands on education and fun!
