    They have great combination of coffee and food. You can come for a cup of late and have a very nice lunch or breakfast. ☕️ Parking. There is valet parking or self parking behind-ish the building.

    Nice little coffee shop. It has great coffee and service. Outdoor seating and it's has its own parking. Simple organic food in the morning and turns into a wine bar at night. Off the highway.

    This is the first Synesso Hydra Hybrid in Dallas. Inside, it's got individual heaters that ensure the water's at the perfect temp when it hits the coffee. Read more

    Quality coffee, friendly service, delicious eats, and a business friendly environment complete with a quaint, dog-friendly patio at the store’s front. Very modern. Definitely an uptown aesthetic.

    Try the iced cortado - espresso, milk and a touch of simple syrup shaken and served on ice. Delightful pick-me-up. The avocado toast is a hit here, too.

    A perfect spot in the industrial district to get your caffeine fix and grab a bite. The Wi-Fi is strong just in case you need to knock out a little work. But parking can be tough, so be patient.

    A trendy, cozy spot to grab a cup of coffee and a bite to eat (the avocado toast is delicious!) It’s also a perfect place to hop online and do some work away from the office. Note: Parking is scarce.

    Unarguably the best coffee in Dallas. And it's located in the Design District, one of the city's more overlooked areas. Phenomenal staff who really know what they're doing!

    Great new coffee shop! The food is really good and the staff is incredibly knowledgeable about their product. It's a comfortable atmosphere that is classy without trying too hard.

    A place where coffee and food dreams come true. Service staff was friendly and willing to make suggestions. Whether you're looking for sit down meal or quick coffee to go this place is worth a visit.

    Chai latte is spiced right! Beautifully matched music and friendly service make this a definite repeat! Sit outside with friends!

    Be brave an order the daily special. Push your boundaries and live a little. Order some food. Hang out and contemplate your new coffee experience.

    I cannot speak highly enough about Ascension coffee. They have all the knowledge but no pretense and have been beyond helpful in my coffee education. Packed house every time.

    Hands down, THE BEST lavender latte I've ever had. I've had them all over the U.S. and Ascension wins. The meat and cheese board is delicious too.

    This place is very trendy, the man at the counter was very friendly and had a small conversation with me. He had glasses, idk his name, but he's very friendly.

    Beautiful espresso with nice chocolate notes and fruity finish. Expressed well in a cappuccino with a simple breakfast.

    Good place to come and work or hold meetings. Full service tables with food and coffee or take it to go.

    Also, best service in a coffee shop goes to Henry with his million dollar smile, inclusive attitude, and the joy you can tell her gets from talking coffee everything.

    Craft coffee. Their central blend is great and their eggs benedict is delicious.

    French toast. It was some of the best I've ever had. And the vanilla latte was so good.

    Ascension was great! Very busy but it's understandable given how great the coffee is and how fun the atmosphere was.

    Get the caramel frapp! Delicious heaven in a tall glass with a wafer cookie on top!

    The 15 spice chai latte has great flavor but too expensive at $5 for 12 oz. I think it may have to do with them using hemp milk. Also could be a lot hotter in temperature

    I love their cold brew. For a while they had Onyx Labs Colombian coffee and that was amazing.

    When paying via the iPad remember to leave a tip. It's really easy to skip that step and since they are nice they won't remind you! #TipYourServer

    Seriously blew me away. Almond Latte is on my top ten list in the country and that's saying a hell of a lot!

    Great coffee. Doesn't have the Starbucks bitterness, but they also don't have the variety of flavors. Croque Madame was good.

    If you are going to sit at the tall tables across from the "slow bar", bring a hoodie or a parka or something. The A/C blows right on you. Brrrr!
