Earlier this morning I took my car into a new and highly recommended mechanic. I will post a review on that later. I did not get to eat anything before leaving to take the car in, so I walked around the local South Park neighborhood in search of coffee and breakfast.Although there are a lot of restaurants in this area, most of them were not open and do not open until 11 AM. Came into influx café and in reviewing their menu decided to try the bagel scramble and an americano. What can I say? OMG. That bagel was so good I think I died and went to heaven LOL. It was perfectly prepared and a very generous size portion for the price. In other words the price was very reasonable for the serving of food that I received.Every bite of that sandwich was tasty and wonderful . I may have to keep bringing my car here so that I can have a reason to come here for breakfast LOL.And, I have not yet mentioned that the Americano tasted great as well. This restaurant uses solar power to roast their coffee beans and I appreciate that because in addition to providing excellent food and coffee, they are working to care for the environment.When you are in so far and looking for coffee or breakfast, stop at influx café and check them out!! I highly recommend them and I will be back.

Great place for a Sunday breakfast or brunch. Kale salad was refreshing and satisfying even for a non-kale lover. Sit outside for a cool breeze and relaxing morning!

Always friendly service. The coffee is good, the food is good. I personally enjoy The Traditional bagel. Thats smoked salmon, tomatoes, onions and capers on an everything bagel with cream cheese. Its not something youd tell someone they have to go try, but if thats what youre into then its great.

Always a wonderful choice for great coffee, pastries and food. The atmosphere is easy and modern with a comfortable outdoor seating area. Everything from bagels, salads and sandwiches is terrific. Don’t forget to try the croissants: best in the city!

This is a pretty standard coffee shop/cafe. Theres a food menu with some breakfast and lunch items, along with a small assortment of pastries. The prices are reasonable, and the service is alright.I ordered the bagel scramble, which is a bagel, egg, and cheese. For a breakfast, its fine, but not the best thing I have ever eaten. The coffee itself is fine, pretty tasty and dark, and served hot.

I wish there were more places like this around town. The service was very sociable and kind. The prices are good for what you get. Feels similar to a restaurant in New York I loved.

Small, intimate place. The vendors were really nice and helpful. Also instagramable :) There are many places in the city where you can get amazing coffee.

Service is always timely even when they have a full house. The place has a great feel to it. Atmosphere is similar to a place in Columbus I loved.

My Sandwich was beautifully crafted, it was fresh with bold flavor that paired my coffee perfectly. The bread was to die for! One of my new favorite spots 🥐

I came in here just to pass time and enjoy a cup of coffee and I had a delightful time. Jenny took my order and she was very attentive and friendly. The coffee was tasted so good. Every time Im in the area I go to Influx for coffee. They also vegan friendly.

I live in the neighborhood have been going in there every morning. I find the staff dull and uninspiredThis morning was my last visit as nkw thue have the cream and sugar on lockdown and could not get the drone behind the counter to give up more than 2 packs of sugar. Not wanting to hear her sorry excuse way I left with no sugar.When people buy coffee for $3 it is basically the custom to give them cream and sugar to their specs.If you right wads are having issues with the homeless making soup out of your condememts dont punish your customers . Ill be going back to jack in the box for coffee from now on. Dont go here they suck

Stooped in for a quick to go lunch. I chose the bct, a bagel with cream cheese, bacon and thick slices of tomato and a blood orange iced tea. The everything bagel was thick and nicely toasted. A very tasty lunch with the best iced tea Ive ever had! Great prices and friendly service!

I wish there was more indoor seating. Theres never any tables open around noon. Theres space for more tables in the center of the space. Other than that i love this place and come here all the time

I come to Influx every two weeks to get a croissant with bacon, egg, cheese, tomato, and onion. I enjoy the atmosphere that is given every time I come in and the employees are super quick and helpful. Totally recommended to alot of my friends for hang out sessions.

Out of all 3 locations this one is becoming my favorite. Really love the outdoor seating area. Food and coffee is consistent with their other locations so if you liked it elsewhere you will like it here. I always order soy latte and it is by far best soy latte in town

I told the girl 3 times I was allergic to dairy, they brought out my Sandwhich with one piece of meat on a thick cut of bread ( the whole wheat roll). I had to take off dairy and pay for more meat 2.50. The girl never smiled once was completely low energy and no compassion. Today at 12:35pm north park.

Review №35

Consistently delicious croissant/bagel scrambles. Solid coffee. Fresh ingredients and daily fresh-baked bread and assorted treats! Bomb salads and sandwiches.Golden hill has cute staff that smile. North Park staff are less good looking and they hold true to hipster nonchalant/no smile policy (quite endearing once you get to know them).Opens early 6am.Free wi-fi.Not cheap but worth it.See you there!

Breakfast bagel is a bit bland, dont hesitate to go for an extra whatever. On the plus side, service is friendly and quick plus their blend drinks are simply delicious. Exit the smoothie, have their double espresso, banana, cacao mix instead!

I do love this place. It has great breakfast bagels or croissants, salads and sandwiches. And they have Cafe Moto coffee, one of my favorites! Love the goat cheese salad, which is served with foccacio bread. My favorite sandwich is the Turkey 1 on foccacio, but anything with pesto on it is a bonus for me. The onion is sliced super thin, so you get a nice flavor, without getting a mouth full of onion.

There are many places where informality is a word that challenges with quality. Not the case with Influx Cafe. The atmosphere is cozy but not intrusive. The attention, agile, polite and efficient. The food, good and at a really affordable price for most of the local or tourist population.
