Great coffee and friendly staff is a bonus. Way better than going to Star**cks.

Swork is actually a pretty good place to work from. The place has tons of table space and, if there's not a table available, there are benches (complete with comfy red cushions!) to sit on. Swork has free wifi, but access codes are only distributed with a purchase (they print it on the receipt itself). Also, because of the free wifi, the place gets crowded really easily. However, once it gets late and the place clears out a little bit, it's a pretty nice place to just lounge and type away.
Pros: Free wifi, comfortable seating
Cons: Crowded when busy

Swork has great coffee and pastries. It's such a convenient little neighborhood place. I like walking to the cool stores around the area after my morning cup of coffee. More >

I really liked this place. I thought the kids' area was very creative although I don't have any kids. I haven't been to a coffeeshop that has a play area for them.I had a small vanilla bean milkshake which was really good and so was the lemon bar. I didn't look at prices but was pretty surprised when it came out to be a little over $7. I liked the atmosphere and the vibe. I went Sunday, so parking wasn't an issue but take your quarters for the meters any other day.

Even though there's a starbucks with a big parking lot right across a street, I still go to Swork. I love their espresso, music, and atmosphere. Also, it's good to try their outside seats in the back sometimes. It gives me some quiet and nice coffee time!
Pros: Coffee
Cons: Kind of too small space.

Pros: Great atmosphere.

Swork Coffee tends to get quite loud with the coffee machines, the chattering guests, and the kids play area. When there are too many people, the place definitely takes on a claustrophobic feeling. The drinks are a bit rich, but the chai tea is wonderful. Their cleanliness isn't great. I've brought this to their attention before, and when I returned a few days later, the thick layer of dirt and dust below the pastry cases was still left untouched. I guess they don't care.

While this place may be more "urban chic" than its progressively hipster locale, the quality coffee, ample couch space, and Wi-Fi make it a winner. I did order a pound of coffee there last week, however, and when I asked the woman to grind it for a french press (coarser grind), she handed me a bag of coffee shavings, way too thick to really extract flavor.
Pros: Ambience, coffee
Cons: Service
