  Collective Espresso is a nice community coffee shop just off the park. The surrounding street Was under construction while we visited so it appeared closed but it is not! Got a latte and hot chocolate. Thought both were a solid 4, hot chocolate a little watery. Great customer service.

  Love this shop! Small and cozy, but most importantly they pulled the best espresso and poured the best pour-over I had in the handful of Cincinnati coffee shops I visited. They didn't use a machine (is this common?), but did pourover by hand and it was great. Definitely will come back in future Cincy visits!

  I had a pretty hilarious encounter this morning. I ordered a cappuccino and when they presented it to me I asked for chocolate powder on top. I have worked as a Barista for years in Australia where they take coffee pretty seriously, so I'm not a coffee novice. The server openly scoffed at my request and said 'I doubt you will find a coffee shop in the city that will give you chocolate sprinkles' - a ridiculous statement, patently untrue, and unnecessarily rude. They then went on to offer me chocolate syrup - as if that would be more authentic?! The coffee was first rate, but they have lost a potential customer for the sake of having basic manners.

  Good coffee. Had an espresso because was looking for an unsweetened milk option and unfortunately did not have any. They didn’t have almond milk either in case this is important to you. Latte felt a bit more foamy than anticipated also.

  • Great coffee, neat/deinty small location, a but higher prices (and beans actually fairly expensive) • The coffee tasted great, full nutty rich flavor with good creaminess in the macchiato, the art on it was as you'd expect as well. :) The barista forgot about my water even though it wasn't loud or too busy, but oh well. • Prices are a tad higher than other coffee shops serving nice espresso-based drinks and the beans were actually fairly expensive, but definitely a great shop to visit!
