Very hip little coffee shop in an easily accessible part of Little Rock. This place is so hip it has what looks like a tech incubator adjacent to it. There were people doing work inside, which Blue Sail promotes by putting outlets in nearly every table, a big perk for us productivity-minded folks. The decaf pour over was bright and flavorful, a rarity for a decaf coffee. Very curious as to what is the origin of Blue Sail. Perhaps a nod to Blue Ocean, a concept in the business world? Either way who cares, they have a great spot with great coffee.
Blue Sail in downtown is the best coffee shop in Little Rock for productivity hands down. The large space upstairs has comfortable seats, large tables, and quiet rooms.The coffee shop has a great selection of espresso style drinks (personal favorite is the vanilla latte) and their endless cup is a great way to keep caffeinated if you stay in the space.Come here if you like tech vibes, minimalistic asthetic, with a focus on work/productivity. Not the best choice for dates.
Blue Sail Coffee is to the right when you enter the building and it is hard to not want to spend time there since it gets a lot of natural light. The lavender latte was really smooth and delicious.Up the stairs is the tech park portion with seating, outlets and conference rooms. The whole space flows well with theme, design, and event elements like exposed brick.The atmosphere is fairly quiet lending to a great business/study environment. Youll find those on their lunch break listening to audio books, those that walked by to just grab a coffee, or the entrepreneur that is elbows deep on the computer doing their thing. It is an open space catering to community which is exactly what downtown Little Rock, Arkansas needs and craves.
Made a special trip to this location based on reviews and word of mouth. Definitely worth a stop even if you dont work downtown. Theres plenty of seating in the area and youll love the natural lighting from the big windows. Coffee was wonderful and carefully prepared by the courteous baristas. Definitely on my list for a good cup.
Wow! I’ve been wanting to try this coffee shop for months but I don’t work downtown. I visited today because I was off work and it was worth the wait. I would suggest their coffee to anyone wanting to enjoy their morning or afternoon pick me up. The wonderful location and friendly service will keep me coming back!
Everyone here was so friendly, approachable and enthusiastic to share their love for coffee. I was in town for a convention and came here every day to chill. I interacted mostly with Stormy but everyone was great. The drink menu is creative and localized without being too busy. I wish I had one of these at home.
Best specialty coffee scene in Central Arkansas and 100% worth your time and dolla dolla bills, yall. Their coffee is freshly roasted and carefully chosen, drinks taste delicious, skilled & knowledgeable staff, all of their equipment is top-notch, inviting atmosphere, and an overall cool vibe. If youre in Little Rock go to Blue Sail, trust me.
Sorry about that, I must of accidentally reviewed you guys when looking to see if you are open. The store is great. Is the store still open? A lot of the hours I see say closed every day except for one minute between 7-7:01. Thanks!
I go here almost every Friday to grab a cup. The coffee is high quality, but what I really enjoy is the atmosphere. The tech park feels like your stepping into somewhere else; you can just kind of tell that the place is about innovation. So I think its a great place to go to get a break from work, but leave with the desire to do more work (if that makes sense).
Americans like their coffee (particularly fresh off the flight from Sydney). Sometimes its not easy to find while traveling - this cafe was a welcome surprise and well worth a visit. However, it is busy and finding a seat can be a struggle.
Blue Sail quickly became a staple in downtown LR. They handle coffee with class and skill. Drip coffee, espresso+milk drinks, seasonal drinks, they do it all with excellence. And, as a roaster they will always have deep insight as to the nuance of the flavors in their coffee.Meeting for work? Afternoon latte with a friend? Need a place to think next to a window with a quality coffee in-hand? This is your spot. Within walking-distance of several restaurants for an after-lunch espresso, take a few more minutes to get something tasty. Coffee goes in your mouth. It ought to taste good. Blue Sail will not disappoint.
If youre within a half-mile of this location you should walk here instead of drinking the bad hotel coffee. The location is new and modern with young entrepreneurial owners that were enthusiastic and friendly. My simple black dark roast coffee pour over was delicious. I recommend the sundried tomato & spinach quiche and the coffee cake. Very delicious and worth the trip if your in downtown. They served the coffee in a laboratory beaker; very cool.
This is my favorite coffee spot downtown. Always wonderful and consistent service. You can get coffee to stay or go and plenty of options for sitting. The coffee is delicious, but out of all the downtown spots, Blue Sail always has the best/ happiest/ friendliest staff which always brings me back.
The coffee is amazing! its a chill place to be productive in. So if you have homework or something, its the perfect spot to hangout.
Incredible menu! Had the Winterfell (name?) Cold Brew and it was great! Wish I had more time and more money because there were a few amazing looking drinks on their menu!
Actually saw the governor there. But on to more important things 😉 the coffee was great! We each had 2 of each lavender and honey coffees. Large, of course. Lovely environment and a great place for a rainy day.
Don’t go here unless you’re looking for a quick break from your local job in the building. Just a convenient coffee shop w simple selection. They were even out of what my wife wanted.. the whole reason we went. Not a good place to go get good coffee
Easily the best coffee in Little Rock. Its their attention to detail that sets them apart. Not only is the espresso shot pulled really well, its also served with a glass of sparkling water to allow for a better tasting experience with a better prepared palate. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable without the vibe that they look down on you for knowing more about coffee than you do.I love the chem lab aesthetic--especially when drinking a pourover served in an Erlenmeyer flask. The space is bright and clean--perfect for a quick cup or an extended work session using some in-table charging ports.Give em a shot and you wont be disappointed.
Coffee/menu is great, service is on point, and an overall great place to stop for an amazing cup of coffee. The baristas are always quick to offer suggestions when asked and the coffee creations are absolutely delicious. Only downside is that it is currently in a small space that gets loud quickly, so I wouldnt suggest for any people looking for a coffee corner to study or sit for a while.
Best baristas and coffee I have had. I come here for lunch almost every week and am never disappointed. Their lattes are amazing. Also, try their mason jar oatmeal. YUMMY!
Cute place! I was new so they helped me pick an option and made sure to ask what type of coffee I liked. They were very helpful and kind. Super fast and great prices as well!
Came in on opening day and was pleasantly surprised at how quick the service was. Good amount of different menu options for both coffee and breakfast. Went back a week later and they remembered me by name! Always good to feel comfortable and welcomed in a new place. These folks are doing great work!
Excellent pour overs! Friendly staff. Good service. You cant go wrong here.
The absolutely BEST COFFEE in Arkansas, hands down!!Not only is the coffee fantastic, the place is open and sunny, with large windows. Staff is A1 professional.A great location to sit and enjoy your fave drink. I recommend you try the Kraken, or the lavender latte.
Its possible that I may have some bias here—Blue Sail isnt even a block away from my office—but even if it werent, I feel pretty confident that Id still be coming in at least three to four times a week. Mostly because the people behind the counter staffing it are some of the most talented, affable folks Ive ever had the pleasure to know.
I just burped while drinking a fresh cup of Sumatra, and it tasted wonderful. If this coffee is so good that it makes your belches beautiful then it must be a wonderful coffee roasted by some beautiful artisans
By far the best coffee shop in Little Rock. The staff was great and the coffee was on par with some of the best shops I have been to around the country/world. They also had one of the best mix of specialty drinks on the menu that I have seen in a specialty shop. All around great experience. Next time I am in Little Rock, I will 100% make sure to stop back by.
I really love the coffee at Blue Sail; it is really excellent! Customer service seems to be a bit lacking though. I just called a bit ago to put in a to go order. The guy on the phone said that he would have to put me on hold because of a line of customers; he said that I could order online if I wanted to. So after being on hold for like 4 minutes, he got back on the phone and said that the line was too long and he was way to busy to take my order. Bottom line, Blue Sail is awesome and I have been going there for probably about two years regularly; however, this is not a place to go if you are in any kind of hurry or need a coffee in a reasonable amount of time; they seem understaffed. The person on the phone today was odd and a bit unpleasant.
Wonderful coffee. Great place to meet someone for business. Love the entrepreneurial atmosphere of this whole building. They remember my name and I love that!
Great barista. Reasonable prices. Great coffee.
A great place to start my day with work and coffee before heading out - thanks for the amazing coffee
Smooth, rich coffee. Loved the Kraken. On point with the Breakfast Muffins. Wonderful, friendly staff. Great location too.Should have got a large!
Nice coffee shop in the heart of the city! Highly recommend the lavender latte.
Great service. Knowledgeable staff. Fantastic coffee!!
I work here so of course Im saying its great, lol. But honestly I love this company and love working for it. From The community aspect of it, to the quality; if i wasnt an employee, Id still say 5 stars!
Really tasty coffee and a pecan chocolate chip cookie ❤️❤️, cute little coffee shop in downtown Little Rock Arkansas.
The best coffee we found in Little Rock. Perfectly pulled shot, microfoamed latte and an awesome Shakerato (espresso, milk, brown sugar). The activated charcoal latte was superb.
This is some of the best coffee in Little Rock honestly, and the environment is really pleasant. The staff are also amazing.
Best vibes to feel here love the interior design, not at all what I expected!Oh! And Joe, makes the best lattes!!
Amazing coffee and great staff! I love the unique selections for the drinks; it always makes me excited to head that way and see what I can try! The area is so bright and open, it is a very lovely place, full of life. The only downside is the lack of noms; while there is limited space, theres a handful of pastries, which are lovely, but nothing of substance like a bagel & cream cheese or the like.
This is our go to coffee place downtown! The service is excellent, the coffee is delicious and the savory scones are the best! Get a Shakerato if you like iced lattes! They are addictive!
Loved it once, very disappointed the 2nd time. Not consistent with SF flavorings for specialty coffees. Definitely wont make any effort to go back.
This is very fancy coffee shop as part of tech offices. I ran in here in terrors trying to find a bathroom after driving 250 miles then getting lost in the city and they made me a darn good coffee.
Been driving by for years and always told myself wanted to try this coffee house. Glad I finally stopped. Now, itt the only one in Little Rock I go to.
Great coffee. Super cool venue! Very awesome and friendly workers.
Best coffee off of Capitol. The house brew for pour overs, drip, and espresso is on the darker (bitter) side so be warned. Extremely friendly staff, free WIFI, convenient power outlets and open seating creates a great place to work remotely or have meetings. Only con is that space and prep area is tight, so it doesnt take much to create lines and slow service.
Have enjoyed my weekly trip & small chats with the baristas. The seasonal drinks are great, will continue to enjoy Blue Sail Coffee
Excellent coffee and service, its a nice place to take a break from work.
Friendly staff and nice modern decor. Love the mocha.
Great coffee, delicious lattes and always friendly staff. This is a great place to get work done or meet for coffee downtown.
Great coffee, but rating 4 stars because the service was really slow, if you have time to hang out a while, then the coffee is worth the wait. i would have given a 5 star rating hadnt they spilled my coffee, and atleast apologized, or offered to make me a new one.
Great coffee good service very helpful and a very wide variety of drinks
Great space for meetings when in town. Try their lavender latte!
Great little secret coffee shop in downtown Little Rock!
Super nice staff andgreat food/coffee/tea. My favorite relaxing spot for lunch breaks.
Great coffe in local shop. Convenient to downtown Little Rock.
Great coffee and great tea selection, superb brewing methods and very friendly owners and staff! I highly recommend the lavender latte and also the Siagon cinnamon tea!
Blue Sail Coffee has become one of my most favorite coffee shops. I usually go to the Technology Park location in dowtown Little Rock as it is close to my work. Every single time I visit the Baristas are always so friendly and they always remember your name. Plus they have great coffee. They have even added a lot more to their menu, which includes oatmeal, cinnamon rolls, quiches and now breakfast sandwhiches. They also offer a wide range of RXBars which is very convenient if youre looking for something quick for a snack. This place is legit and as long as I am working in downtown LR, this will be my coffee spot!
Attention to detail.. great place for a high quality brew
Delicious and unique. Dont walk in expecting to place your usual Starbucks order... this is next level.
Cool, modern place to have a great coffee! Awesome selection and very courteous staff.
