This place seems like it’s out of a coffee magazine! Drove up on it and the location seems nice, but walk up to the front door and patio area and you realize this isn’t some low end coffee shop.The staff were super helpful and kind, the service was fast and the coffee was spot on! Prices are decent. Lots of tables and places to sit - but they were completely full! I think this is a favorite spot for many people in downtown Little Rock!

Really enjoyed the tea options. Coffee looked good too. Nice shop over all. Open air feel to it. Across from Heffer Village on 6th and Shall St. I didnt try food but my friend did and enjoyed the Lox and bagels. People were nice. Line was fast and efficient. Nice selections of boxed and bagged coffees & tea.

Super nice place and staff. The coffee was great. The baked goods were spectacular. I loved the Arkansas corn cookie and the monkey bread muffin. Very nice decor and chill vibe. I would go back if Im passing through the Rock again.The internet there was pretty slow, but you cant eat or drink that. No big deal. 😆Thanks!Kerry, no, Karen, no...Erik

Went on a Sunday and we tried the biscuit sandwich special and the lox and sesame seed bagel. Also got a latte and a nitro cold brew. The drinks were great. The biscuit and egg were awesome, sausage patty was a little tough but tasted good. Lox and bagel was OK, not enough cream cheese, capers, and red onion in my opinion. Sitting on the patio was very relaxing, will go again.

My favorite coffee shop in Little Rock! Wonderful staff, dog-friendly patio, great coffee and lattes, fantastic food. Perfect option for any morning of the week! Weekend specials (including the breakfast sandwich) are not to be missed!

The espresso was fine. Ive had better. The shop is beautiful. The service was lovely. I was passing through and needed to pick up some V60 filters. I called multiple coffee shops until I found Fidel. They said they had one pack of filters left, but I wasnt coming through until the next day. The man on the phone said hed set it aside for me! So I got to pick them up today on my way through town. :) Great customer service.

Cool spot for coffee and breakfast for our cross country road trip morning fuel. Got the house roast and green tea with honey. People were wearing masks and we ordered outside for pickup (Nov 2020).Highly recommend the avocado toast. It is deliciously topped with zaatar, hummus, pickled carrots, and soft boiled runny eggs.For pastries, we got the blueberry and earl grey tea scone and monkey paws. The scone has a nice strong flavor and we ordered it with jam but they missed the jam. The monkey paws are goey on the inside and a little crunchy on the outside. Both worth a try and pairs great with the coffee or tea!

Honestly, if you want a good cup of coffee this is the place. I have had coffee from all over the country. I had literally the best iced mocha I have had in my life this morning. I could tell the second I walked through the door and saw their equipment that I was in for a treat...simonelli Mythos grinders, puqpress, marzocco...you will not be disappointed. This is a true gem!

Best coffee shop in Little Rock. They really know specialty coffee. I got a bagel & lox with a pour over of their house roasted El Salvador. AMAZING. Plus I had to get a Nitro Cold Brew to go which was just as good. Atmosphere and staff are great as well. We sat on the patio with our dogs and they even brought us a little dog bowl! Please visit this place when you’re in town!

Exceptional customer service, as a Caribbean latino my expectation of the coffee quality are high and this coffee bar accomplish the challenge.

This is a really solid coffee shop that seriously cares about letting specialty coffee shine. The staff are always kind and welcoming. As the cafe grows, I’d like to see a more robust offering of seasonal coffee-based drinks (fomo, unique fruity and citrusy syrups for milk-based drinks, fun cold drinks, etc.). My biggest frustration with Fidel & Co is that they don’t open on business days until 8. For the large volume of 8-5 commuters passing by their shop in downtown LR, choosing to not open at 7 defies all logic to me. I hope this changes soon so that I can enjoy more of their coffee before I’m locked into my work the rest of the day. Until then, I’ll begrudgingly give other cafes my business during the morning rush.

My boyfriend and I just moved from Florida a week ago and have been dying to find a good coffee place close to our house. We went here on a Saturday evening close to closing time (without us realizing it) and everyone was so pleasant and kind to us. The coffee was amazing quality and the cornmeal cookies were probably one of the best pastries we’ve had and an excellent pairing with the coffees.We got to chat with one of the owners Fidel on our way out and he was so personable and attentive to us which honestly took the experience over the top for us.We’ll most definitely be back!

Beautiful addition to the local coffee shop scene. best matcha latte Ive had in LR. lovely presentation & even better tasting flavors (the El Salvador pour over is amazing). Fidel & Co feels like a space best suited for meetings, studying, and similar activities.pros:+ lots of seating options for both groups & individuals, including tables & bar seating, but you may have a lil trouble finding a spot during peak hours. (I went at 3PM on MLK day--may have been more busy because people were off work?)+ plenty of electrical sockets+ Bag. Hooks. on near everything.+ very nice atmosphere. tall ceilings make you feel less cramped. tons of natural lighting.+ really unique menu items & add-ons. check it out, Ive attached an image.cons:- as of right now, there is only one menu. its small, and located right up by the register. this means you cant see any menu items until youre at the front of the line; if you dont want a standard cafe menu item, you might end up feeling like youre holding up the line. Im assuming this is an aesthetic choice, but its low-key annoying for the new consumer.

Swung by this coffee shop on our way through Little Rock. The atmosphere was charming and the outdoor patio looked like a delightful place to sit in the sun. Their drip coffee was a pretty light roast with a lot of acid. I would have preferred something darker. The staff was friendly and safe, with a plexiglass divider between you and the baristas.

Review №61

I had the turkey sandwich, and I was able to try the avocado toast. Im not a big fan of buying sandwiches from restaurants, but this was one of the better sandwiches I had. You can tell the bread was homemade and it was served warm. The flavor was good but the overall sandwich lacked acidity. A tomato would have gone with it nicely. The avocado toast made with sourdough was good, and I have no complaints there.I would eat here again if it werent for the prices. Most of the sandwiches were 12 dollars. For what I got, I would not justify that price. The toast was only 5 dollars, and if you love sourdough. I would highly suggest it.

Great coffee first and foremost, along with a great aesthetic. Staff was very knowledgeable and even got to meet the owner who lives in town. It’s always nice to find these local gems while traveling for work. Super close to the airport for in and out snacks Pre or post flight.

Amazing third wave coffee shop that gets everything right where a lot of other places around here have gone wrong. Very experienced staff of some of the best baristas and pastry chef in town. Its the kind of place where you could pick up a fun craft latte or thoroughly enjoy a ristretto or doppio. The patio is great for a relaxing afternoon or sit back inside and enjoy the artfully curated interior.

Fidel & Co is a GREAT coffee shop. It has everything I look for. The space is open and inviting, with huge windows and an open garage door patio when the weather is nice. The coffee is onyx with friendly and knowledgeable baristas. Its cool to hear about their story and how they want the place to grow. Its great for bringing your laptop and getting some work done or hanging out and chatting with friends. The ONE thing that would make me happier would be if they were open longer on Saturdays. But when they are open, this is for sure my go to place in LR.

They make a really good cold latte. Best I ever had. Baked goods are very tasty...not too sweet. The blueberry muffins are full of berries. The molasses ginger cookies are covered in fresh candied ginger. Amazing. They make the bagels fresh. Beautiful space. Nice staff. Another welcome addition to East Village.

Beautiful lighting, beautiful machinery, beautiful presentation, and beautiful vibes. If you want to see a place that puts every effort into ensuring your coffee is amazing, then you should definitely stop by. Ask them about the coffee farmer that co-owns the shop, or ask them about the espresso recipe theyre using so you can replicate at home. Theyll tell you about it. Or, if you just want to order your coffee and chill in the corner, its cool. They have 12 corners to choose from, 11 of which are pure bangers. Whats with the 12th corner you ask? Guess youll have to visit them.

Great coffee, great atmosphere and great people. Ive never had a bad experience here. They serve quality coffee and food items. I highly recommend the chipotle turkey sandwich. Im not even a chipotle fan but this sandwich is delicious.I love that I can buy Onyx coffee beans here and that I know they havent been sitting on the shelf for a while. Fresh beans are important and with a coffee as good as Onyx, I dont want them any other way.I do wish they would add white chocolate syrup to their latte options as love the flavor of white chocolate mochas but it also just has a better mouth feel than regular chocolate mochas do for me. But thats just me nitpicking.This place is definitely worth your time and money.
