OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSHHHHH! 3 dollar hot cocoa tasted like it should've been 6 dollars. music matches vibes and is great for college students who are low on money. in the heart of downtown boise, it really captures the essence of this beautiful city. if i have to come up with something i think they could work on would be to expand the food menu a little, thankfully though, the warehouse is just down the street and you can bring food you get from there into the shop! the service was truly excellent. the man serving us made a really good coffee and hot chocolate. he did accidentally mess up on my friends order but they quickly and efficiently re-made it and was super kind. would come here again.

The most luxurious coffee experience of the year ... in Boise, Idaho! Who knew? Slow by Slow is amazing. I had the Christmints Latte, with house-made peppermint syrup and served with fresh mint. Bougie! I got to smell it every time I took a sip, and somehow that makes a difference! The latte was ultra smooth with just the perfect amount of decorative foam. Terry opted for the seasonal drink, Sumac That. And yup, you guessed it! Sumac infused goodness with cranberry, orange and sage - dusted with crushed sumac berries - and not too sweet. I felt like I was entering an exclusive speakeasy but for coffee. The barista was super friendly and talented. Well done, Boise.

Listen... one of the best crafted lattes I've ever had. I usually like to go to coffee shops that roast their own but they source their coffee WELL and they make an excellent drink. I love that they make all their syrups in-house. Even though they're super busy they remained pleasant to work with. They brought me my drink and it was wrong, and they immediately made a new one and were so pleasant. That first sip was the most impressive I've had in a long time - ever if I can remember! I opted to get an "old fashioned" latte and was shocked at how all the flavors were perfectly balanced and so delightful. Yep, there's a reason they're so busy, even at 3pm. I'll come back and bring more friends. Love it!!!

This is the thick as thieves of coffee in Boise- feels like a cocktail bar experience. If you want a typical syrup-based sweet latte, this isn't it. I love how original their flavors are and the craft that goes into each one. The butternut spice latte is fall in a cup- it's one of the best lattes I've ever had. The old fashioned latte they had over the summer was amazing as well. Plenty of work space and very friendly staff. Drinks are on the more expensive side, but it's clear as to why that is. A unique spot and I can't recommend it enough!

Delicious Ambiance: chill and perfect for hanging out or working out Service: super friendly, quick as possible with pour overs, etc (both girls working when we went were great) Will prob be back while I'm town to get some work done here!

Best coffee we had in Boise! They sell Heart Roasters beans, one of our favorites from Portland, so I knew they'd be good. This was the only coffee shop we visited twice during our four day stay in Boise, so you know they're legit. The baristas are so nice; they remembered our order when we returned two days later and even asked "are you sure you want the 12 oz? You got the 16 oz on Saturday." He said he remembers coffee orders better than people's names, ha. Friendly service and solid oat milk lattes; we'll be back if we're ever in Boise again!

Cool ambiance with relaxing vibes and some of unique chocolate bars for sale. Menu seems very limited and service was so so. I got an herbal blueberry rooibos tea, which was one of the best herbal teas I've ever had. Would order again.
