What a gem of a find! HAS Heart is not just your average coffee shop; it's a sanctuary nestled in the heart of our bustling city. From the moment you step inside, you're greeted with warmth and authenticity that's palpable. The ambiance is simply enchanting - the cozy nooks, the and the aroma of freshly brewed coffee create an atmosphere that invites you to unwind and linger a little longer. And let's not forget about the incredible location; it's like an oasis amidst the urban hustle and bustle. But what truly sets HAS Heart apart is its commitment to a noble cause. Supporting veterans and artists through their merchandise is a commendable initiative, and it's heartwarming to see the community come together to support such a meaningful endeavor. Whether you're stopping by for a quick pick-me-up or looking for a tranquil spot to escape the chaos of the city, HAS Heart is the perfect destination. Kudos to the team for creating such a haven for both the soul and the senses. This place deserves every bit of praise and more!

Great little coffee shop downtown. Veteran owned, lots of cool gear on display and for sale. Best part, right next to a memorial park. Get a cup of your favorite coffee, check out the shop and then go pay your respects right out back.

Cool little coffee spot! I don’t even like Cold Brew, but this was really good (not bitter like most places). Very friendly

This was our second trip to Has Heart and it was equally as fantastic! Oat milk cafe miel is the absolute best in the city, yummy muffin and a Nutella croissant that flaked all over us in the most fantastic way. The building and decor is beautiful and the location is great if you’re at the children’s museum, library, etc. Highly recommend!
