This place cracks me up. Its literally in the middle of nowhere, tucked into the abyss of an old mill. You couldnt find it unless you knew exactly where you were going and had Google maps, and once you find the ginormous mill you still have a search on your hands. Upon entering the coffee shop you find the place crawling with hipsters (why do hipsters love to congregate in such unusual, out-of-the-way places lol?) Once my iced latte was ordered the barista meticulously began working on it like a scientist in a laboratory. No joke, this is seriously the best coffee I have ever had - amazing flavor and amazingly fresh. And the fabulous chocolate cookie is a meal in itself.

If you want great coffee and support local businesses, look no further than Due South. Theyve got a great hipster vibe cultivated by the artwork sourced from people working in the mill. They generally have 4-5 coffees to pick from, along with beans for sale (they dont grind these, but they do sell grinders for you to take home). I generally go in for tea myself, though I wish they had more varieties or possibly a few rotating, seasonal teas. Also, they sell beer, wine, and liquor, though with 13 stripes next door Im not sure if this will change in the future.

The coffee? Great! The baristas need a better awareness of customers, especially customers who arent on the inside of their friends circle. As a customer, it makes me feel like Im not as valued when I go to order and theyre off having a convo with a non-customer. The facility needs more outlets as well. NEEDS! like really badly. They really underutilize the space they have. Not efficient. If they could solve one of those two things, Id give em 4 stars. If they solve both, 5 stars.

I am in college and I come here all the time to study. The environment and ambiance is wonderful, usually mellow and fairly quiet and the big couches help me to get a lot done. The coffee and espresso drinks are wonderful; however my only comment is I wish the coffee was just a little hotter because they get cool very fast and then Im just drinking lukewarm coffee that you pay $4 for. It would also be nice if they had a few more things to munch on. Other than that, great coffee house!

I loved it. The atmosphere is very open and comfortable. They have the roaster and bags of beans right there which adds to the environment. The baristas were very friendly. The coffee was fantastic. I ordered a latte with almond milk (points for actually having almond milk on hand). It was probably one of the best Ive had. The coffee was so good it didnt need any sugar (unlike Starbucks and other coffee shops coffee Ive had).

This place had an awesome atmosphere. It looked like it was in a place that used to be an old warehouse but now its an inviting coffee shop. The cold brew is hands down the best Ive ever had, and Ive had quite my share. They also have delicious pastries and this sparking home brewed tea that was excellent. Lots of space to sit and read or work on a lap top or whatever with also several large comfy couches to lounge on.

Excellent artisan coffee with a stellar mission to help revamp the Taylors Mill. If hes there, talk to Ricardo about his vision for coffee, its intoxicating. Also, they roast their own coffee and their signature drink, Southern Hemisphere (rosemary infused milk and grapefruit simple syrup served chilled with espresso), is insane.

It looks good and has a neat atmosphere but the coffee itself is sub-par. I have order a latte three different times and each time it was lukewarm. One time I told them it wasnt hot and they just heated it up in the microwave. In addition they dont have half half-and-half for the regular coffee just whole milk.

Nick is a great barista who took the time to explain the difference between all the different coffee offerings....an overall great experience! Perhaps Im biased since my biz is also in the mill making this a one minute bike ride away....but still the atmosphere and variety of beans makes this a keeper!

This isnt really my type of place to hang out. This is hipster heaven and not really my thing. We meet up there once a month for a gaming group and if not for that I wouldnt have a reason to go. Prices are high, service is so-so and the selection of products isnt great.

Very cool place... some would say its chill. Roasted coffee was too expensive for me to buy it... 12 oz. package was $14. Thats $18.67 per pound. Cool hang out place though. Its in a huge old mill so it could use a few extra directional signs to help you find it.

Horrible from start to finish. Place was noisy, baristas were rude and did not make what was ordered, when they noticed my full latte (ordered mocha lattes) was trashed didnt bother to ask if something was wrong, or if they could fix it. Would never go back!

The absolute best coffee ever!! Freshly roasted beans give a richness and smoothness of flavor that no other coffee place around can dare to compete with! Take home a bag or 2, you will not be disappointed! This is my new favorite coffee spot.

Dave Brothers

Coffee is rich and delicious, always well-prepared. Atmosphere is cozy and not rushed or forced; they have some of the coolest local art and a bulletin board for neighborhood goings-on. Great for meeting friends or taking a book.

Sam Viola

Nice place to get coffee with an industrial atmosphere which makes it somewhat loud compared to other places. Definitely worth the trip, if youre in a sketchy warehouse looking area then youve found the right place.

Raymond Lewis

Excellent coffee. Awesome open collaborative atmosphere. Would be an awesome place for a StartupBus stop! Especially a maker bus as its located in the middle a wood, steel, art design and fabrication complex

If your not a hipster then dont expect to be noticed by the barista or get good service. The coffee was ok but lukewarm stick to a keurig. Overall very uppity and snobby with a dash of trying to be too cool.

Very unique atmosphere! Great coffee and the best hot chocolate that I have ever had. Friendly baristas too. Definitely a place to go and chill, not a place to rush into for a quick cup on the way to work.

Micah Lee

Great atmosphere and coffee! A simple drink selection, but Due South is one of a few places I prefer my coffee black. If youre coming to work, it is a little tricky to find a spot near a power outlet.

Great space. Comfortable seating. The coffee is delicious. — My sons and I attend the game night hosted by Tantrum House on the last Monday night of every month. Its definitely a highlight for us!

Bjorn Brooks

Very good baristas and quality of espresso drinks. Nice variety too. Relaxing setting. Good for studying and working. Bring ear plugs though, as the air handlers are noisy in certain corners.

Austin McCrimmon

Very high quality coffee. These guys know what theyre doing with small batch roasting. Lovely little establishment in an old mill warehouse. One of the best coffee shops Ive been to!

Allison Mcanigan

The coffee is pretty good, but NOT the baristas! They used to be kind people, but now there are different people working and they are rude, impatient and overall just dull.
