Social Butterfly Coffee is such a gem! The space is open, bright, and super welcoming.
I’ve tried several drinks here, both hot and iced, and they’ve all been delicious. One time I wanted to add cold foam to a drink, and the barista helped me figure out a flavor combo that went perfectly with what I had in mind. Their breakfast sandwiches are awesome too—definitely worth trying! (The Golden Hour had a hold on me!)
You can tell they really care about making good drinks and giving great service. Definitely recommend this place, especially if you’re looking to support a local coffee shop!

Coffee, food and service are definitely five stars.
The music level was way too loud to be social. Hard to have a conversation.
I’ll go back , however it would be for pick up only. Love the concept of it being for socializing and connecting with great coffee, food and plenty of seating.
Love that they use Nicola’s delicious bakery items!

First time here was great! Flavorful Benito Brew on Superbowl Sunday. Creamy, tasteful iced coquito topped with coconut flakes & coconut cold foam. Chocolate & strawberry croissants were fresh and flaky. Cool spot with plenty of comfy seats to lounge and enjoy.

Social Butterfly has quickly turned into my new coffee spot! Their cold brew is fantastic! The flavors and cold foams all taste REAL instead of like chemicals and then top it off with the best baked goods and sandwiches!
If you have gotten a breakfast sandwich you need to stop in!
Also the street parking directly out front makes this easy to get to and run in!
This picture is the cold brew with cream and pumpkin bread, but I had the Nuttier Than Your Ex (pistachio cold brew) the next day and it was the best!

Recommended to us by a friend, and they nailed it. Feels like a real coffee operation. It looks great, the vibe and atmosphere are outstanding and comfortable, but the drinks are just as outstanding. I prefer a more “nerdy” coffee experience and this meets that criteria, with the coffee being a focus. Staff was great and knowledgeable. I had a Geisha Bean Pour Over and my wife had a latte that she loved. They knew customers names and drinks as they entered. Everything was outstanding. Place is great for coffee nerds and Starbucks regulars alike.

I’ve now been to Sought Out Grounds three times and I’ve enjoyed every visit. The atmosphere is inviting and makes me want to sit and enjoy my coffee and a baked treat. It’s a great place to read, write, work, or meet for work or with friends. I dig this place. Oh, and of course the drinks are well made and taste really good. The drip coffee is excellent as well. I’m super excited for this place!

Me and my sister visited the coffee shop on their opening day and we really enjoyed going since then. I think what we really liked is that the coffee tasted a little bit of home since it did give hints of cafe de olla and the cookies and bread are really good too we like to stop by once in a while I really recommend to go try it if you haven’t
