I really enjoyed the coffees and cake during my first visit to Strada! The espresso was tasty and so was the latte. Its a comfortable shop and Ill definitely be back! Take advantage of the additional parking North of Strada at a law firm on the west side of the street (several times I have not stopped due to Stradas immediate parking being full). I would not consider this a third wave coffee shop (no advertised single origins, no pourover options), but this shop probably appeals to the majority of patrons in the Tyler area. It appeared to me that they had a solid espresso setup (La Marzocco machine and Mahlkonig grinders). They serve Cuvee Coffee and provide an opinion of either medium or dark for the batch brewed option. I hoped that theyd serve coffee from a roaster that was more local, but I cant have everything!

After trying 4 different coffee shops in the Tyler area in recent weeks, Strada is by far my favorite one. From the friendly service and knowledgeable staff to the bright and cheerful decor, not to mention the best white chocolate mocha latte with coconut milk Ive ever had, its now my go-to spot. Ive literally been like Goldilocks trying to find the perfect coffee shop that serves food, coffee, and has WiFi so I can just park and work. I dont have to get up and go anywhere else when I get hungry and they have plenty of options from breakfast tacos made at the Mexican market and picked up daily, to soups, salads, wraps and quiches. Its a definite addition to my list of favorite places to get great tasting lattes, good food at affordable prices and work for hours.

What captured me immediately was the music! (Yes- very important to me) The guy that helped us was very friendly and helpful. I got an iced coffee with cinnamon and rice milk, and the Ham and Turkey Panino. (I thought $9 was a little pricey- but the sandwich came out hot, fresh and delicious, and Im all about supporting local businesses!) My boyfriend got some juice, "Liquid Gold" and it was to DIE for. So fresh. Very cool atmosphere with cool, local art as well. Considering its not even a block away from where i live, I will definitely be coming back- i wanna give everything on the menu a try!

Its great that downtown has a full service coffee shop with food and baked goods that are made fresh on location, instead of packaged goods that are resold. Do yourself the favor, go. It may be hard to park, but try next door at the attorneys office across the street (not behind). The line might be long, but people are packing this place because of the quality. I recommend the Chicken Salad or if you go on the weekend try the waffles. Theyre amazing.

I work nearby, and enjoy taking a break to go to Strada. I really like the coffee, its a little strong for me so I usually just get one shot in my latte, and its consistently delicious. I have a few favorites from the menu, they have a gluten free torte that is amazing (I get it because it is delicious, not because it is gluten free), lemon scones, and quiche. Its no pricier than *bucks, and you get the bonus of supporting local.

The Strada Caffè staff are friendly, the food is fresh and delicious, and the ambiance is quite relaxing . You can carry on a conversation without yelling or having to lean in to listen. The coffee and espressos are excellent and their French press coffee is very smooth. The parking is limited, but its worth the effort to find a spot nearby. I strongly recommend you check out this local jewell.

Strada has great coffee, but is very small. Great ambience, just way too small. I felt like I didnt have enough room or privacy. I also tried some of their food, it was nothing special. Very bland, not much flavor in the sandwich I had. My friend got a waffle and he said that he liked it but that it was just a regular waffle and definitely not worth the 8 dollar price.

Strada combines a great atmosphere in a reclaimed building with a very friendly staff and a tasty menu. It is a great place to have lunch or sit and work and utilize their free wifi. The only downside is the prices. For the quality and amount of food you get, 10 for a sandwich seems very high.

My first experience at Strass Caffe was excellent. Interesting place with old school mixed with modern design. Espresso was perfect for my taste and the avocado toast had just the right combination of light, healthy fats, complex carbs and protein. The pickled onion adds a nice spice to it.

Great Place to get coffee, very welcoming atmosphere. Coffee doesnt taste like sour burnt charcoal like the foundry. Its not full of pretentious Tyler hipsters that have never left the town or seen the world either. Also the sandwich review.... who goes here just for food.......

Gran lugar y comida muy buena. Los breakfast tacos con nopal, una maravilla y la salsa verde de ajo, un gran acierto.

Staff is friendly and coffee is great, however, they are very understaffed in the mornings. Forget about going through the drive-thru if you have a few people in front of you. Youll be waiting a good 15 minutes. Not worth it if youre trying to get to work on time.

The food was awful. They charged 9 dollars for a sandwich with ONE slice of meat, lettuce that was so bad it was black and the avocado mashed and ground into the bread then heated so it was oozing brown goop out of the sides.

Fantastic local coffee shop!!! Im a huge fan of their chai. Good breakfast/lunch offerings as well. This business supports local artists and other local businesses. That makes me love them all the more.

Mackenzie Watts

Great coffee but whatever you do, DONT try to park across the street in the lot that says "strada excess parking". The guy that owns the law offices across the street is SO rude and WILL yell at you.

Greg Lewis

Awesome little place. Good food and even better drinks. Friendly and helpful staff. Wish there was more parking. If there was I wouldnt drive past this place everyday because there are no spots open.

Homemade broccoli cheese soup is excellent, not a thick blob of processed cheese with a few flecks of broccoli. Broccoli is the star of this soup. Very nice dark roast coffee, I drink it black.

This place makes me feel the Austin ization of Tyler becoming even more real. Great coffee and some great dishes . Outside seating in side seating. I love that this is right in my neighborhood

Strada has a relaxed atmosphere, a real great place to read or do school work. I highly recommend the Turkey avocado sandwich. They also have an extensive selection of Teas, coffee, etc.

Im giving this place a 3, the food is great. Other than that the staff is very slow and every time I go there, I never receive a correct order. Bad luck on my part or who knows.

This was my first visit here today, I will be a regular, unique food and the atmosphere is amazing, easy listening live music duo, was the cherry on my Saturday

Great indoor and outdoor seating with good decor. Straight up cappuccino was very strong and delicious. Locally owned and operated. Great place to sit and relax.
