Welcome to CRUDE Craft Coffee Bar

“ I honestly just come here because they have the Persian love shortbread dessert, which is awesome because I don't have to travel all the way to Plano to get my shirini! Baristas are relatively friendly and I have yet to encounter one that has a stuffy cold vibe, like many of the other baristas at neighbouring coffee spots. Their chai is also not overly sweet and has a nice kick to it, like it should have. ”

“ Despite not living in Ft. Worth, I've had the occasion to visit Crude a few times over the last several months. The cafe is small but comfortable, with numerous seating options, good yet calm lighting, and a staff that is very knowledgable and helpful. They typically stock some packaged coffees from DAK, La Cabra, and other roasters, and usually have a premium espresso offering from one of those roasters. On my most recent visit, there were two premium offerings, both from DAK. I chose the "Nitro Melon", tempted by the specter of watermelon, kiwi, and cantaloupe notes. The drink was presented, as always in proper service, with a porcelain NotNeutral cup, a spoon, and sparkling water. The shot itself was very well pulled in terms of balance (the barista had indicated he needed a moment to get it dialed in, a welcome comment). No bitterness, no sourness, it was right on. The flavor was.. interesting. Not something I'd want to drink every day, but it was a welcome change. The melon notes were indeed strong, in a mostly good way, but again, it was something different and not what you'd usually expect from espresso. I also grabbed a bag of DAK to take home, and it's been great as a pourover. This place is small, but packs a punch with its well trained and enthusiastic staff, and great offerings from well known international roasters. If you're a real coffee geek, this place will satisfy! ”

“ I have a whole LATTE love for CRUDE! As I've said in past reviews: "Words cannot ESPRESSO how much I enjoy..." "I'd drive out of my way to get coffee..." This all holds true, still. Crude is by far the best of the best for coffee in Fort Worth. I have not found another coffee cafe that crafts their speciality lattes with such care, quality and deliciousness. They always have a seasonal list of creative coffee numbers or you can grab a yearly favorite. I am still personally biased toward their Dulce De Leche or TX Spirit. The baristas are always kind and patient when you ordering. They offer help, advice or a cheerful conversation when needed, too. Hopefully, you'll go by for a visit and pick up one BREW-tiful cup of coffee! ”

“ This is a nifty spot for quality Joe in a trendy new area of Ft. Worth. They have a good selection-- lattes, Americano, cortado, etc. and the atmosphere is cool -comfy chairs, couches- even a chandelier. The service is great, too. You can also order some fresh desserts, scones, and other sweets. Definitely worth checking out. ”
