I Love a Great Breakfast plate from a local Mom & Pop. However Nothing in Lincoln beats the Crepe concoctions served up at Cultiva! My Birthday bff met up with us for a lunch treat, my first time at the downtown location.

She ordered the Chai Tea special and a Brekkie Bowl. Potatoes, veggies, salsa, and eggs. It’s her go-to. My husband went with The Dude. A crepe filled with eggs, sausage, potatoes, cheese, and hot sauce. Perfect for him.

I decided to indulge with 2 crepes, a present to myself , one savory and one sweet. The Big Dipper filled with spinach, artichokes, cheese, and feta garlic sauce. Super yummy but I think I prefer The Yeti. Similar profile with the addition of eggs. I’ve been eying The Lemon Bomb for awhile. Magic Words: lemon curd. It was Delicious but could’ve used a bit more filling. Flavor was a 10 outta 10!

Our experience has been that this is not the place to come if in a hurry. Good things come to those who wait, right?! Top Breakfast Spot around for me .

I’ve only tried one thing from this place and that is the drink the barcelona. That’s the only drink you need to know the name of. The Barcelona is the best drink hands down. The cold brew which they make it out of is super good as well.

This was my first time here and I asked the barista with the nose piercing and headscarf if she could make a mocha with pumpkin spice (whatever she thought would be best) and she made me the most DELICIOUS mocha I’ve ever had! She was amazing!! 10/10 first experience will be coming back!

Literally love cultiva. The strawberry matcha lemonade and the salty Cuban have become everyday favs and their food hits. Every. Single. Time. Something to know before you go: this isn’t a Starbucks. It’s a very laid back, chill coffee shop in a college town in downtown Lincoln. New owners are very nice and they are really investing time and money into the space. It’s a fantastic place to go, enjoy amazing drinks and food, and work.

This location is close to where I work downtown, less than a 3 minute walk which is incredibly convenient.

I usually order an iced coffee with a splash of almond milk- I know that’s not anything special but this coffee shop doesn’t need much to have their product stand out.

The baristas are what keeps me coming back. They’re very attentive and are dedicated to making sure that the order is both correct and delicious. I have never had any problems when it comes to making sure that my drink is just how I’d like it. I always live a personable staff.

Their food selection is slightly on the pricier side. But I will say that they given you a lot for what you order- good bang for your buck. With that being said, come hungry if you have plans to finish what you order.

There is also PLENTY of seating. On the Sunday morning that I went during the brunch hour, it was busy but I had no trouble finding a spot to sit down and enjoy my breakfast.

My only complaint, is that at times it can be a little loud and echoey. Couple that with the speaker system calling out every order every 2 minutes, it was not very peaceful inside. Thankfully there is an outdoor patio that is more quiet.

We went for breakfast this morning and had a wonderful experience. All of our questions were patiently answered and they didn’t rush us to order. Even though we ordered in one person was able to get their drink in a to go cup. The drinks were ready first and our number was called out with a microphone so it was very easy to hear. There is a table with utensils and condiments next to the cart for the dish return. Drip coffee was “really good”, the chai latte was “excellent”, hot Cubana had cute latte art and “the brown sugar and cinnamon complement their espresso very well”, and the iced Cuban had “super delicious salt cream”. The Johnny cake was better than expected! Great flavor and crunch. The bit of egg on the Lemon bomb crepe added “an extra layer of yum”. We were very pleased that the only bowl is gluten free and can be made vegan.

Popped in on a Friday at 10:30am and, despite the line and the crowd, we got our food within 5 minutes of ordering! This was such a rare Cultiva experience. Food tasted amazing, as always. After that, I went to Cultiva Labs for a pecan pie latte. Day was absolutely made.

Disappointed in the Decline of Service

I’ve been a loyal customer for a long time, but this recent experience has made me reconsider. The portion I received—particularly the potatoes—was noticeably smaller than what is typically served. As a regular, I know what to expect, and this wasn’t it.

When I called to express my concern, I was met with a surprisingly unpleasant attitude. Tone and basic compassion go a long way in customer service, and unfortunately, that was completely lacking here. I also reached out to the owner directly and never received a call back.

Thankfully, I’ve since discovered Early Bird, where the staff is friendly, the portions are consistent, and the service is what it should be—professional and respectful. They deliver what they advertise, minus the attitude.

To the team here: please do better. Good food should be paired with good service, especially when customers are trying to give you a chance to make things right.

I’ve been here multiple times and will return when I can during a Lincoln visit. Cultiva is the reason I know about soy curls and have cooked with them many times, so thank you for teaching a vegan something new. If you order food, just enjoy a book or talking to friends/family because it’s cooked to order. It will be delicious though.

“The only bowl you’ll ever want to eat” was, admittedly healthy but almost completely tasteless and unseasoned. Matcha latte was just warm milk (if you don’t know how to make it, don’t put it on the menu). We ordered a bagel that didn’t arrive, asked them about it, still didn’t arrive for 15 mins. Gave up and left.
Update: the store refunded us for the bagel that never arrived which was a nice gesture.
