Gather - Dayton, Ohio

This is a gorgeous restaurant, bar, and coffee house. Not only was the restaurant itself beautiful but the atmosphere was pristine as well.

My partner and I went during lunch on New Year's Eve and received excellent service, drinks, and food. I even got a chance to meet the owner and his business partner who clearly have a lot of passion and love for what they're doing. All in all, if you're in Dayton, this is certainly worth a stop.

My partner got "the gem city" skillet (phenomenal!) and I got the "philly" (also amazing)! I ordered a half sweet vanilla/cinnamon cappuccino which had an appropriate amount of foam and wasn't too hot. Everyone there seemed to be having a good time and even though we were the only people sitting in to eat, we felt welcome.

Thanks for being awesome, Gather team, we need more businesses like you in the world.

Do not gather at the Gather unless you want to gaslit. The food was subpar, lukewarm, and over-priced. The hot drinks were lukewarm as well. The service is slow. But the servers were sweet people. And the scenery was beautiful. And the parking is terrible-- on the street. So, you have to find a parking spot.

Great coffee, but not many locations for plugging in to work while enjoying coffee/food. Cute space to sit by front window. Street entrance with street parking. Available restrooms and clean. Vanilla iced latte $7. Great place to hangout with friends!

After not finding coffee at the convention center we took short walk and found Gather tucked away with an obscure entrance.

There is an extreme lack of urgency among the staff. There were three people working and they seemed to be all doing their own thing. Which is ok, but when you have 15 people waiting for coffee, perhaps all of the staff could be helping barista. I.e. prepping cups, etc. it took 30 minutes for the time of order to get our drinks.

Also, this place is very nice and elegant. The workers do not seem to necessarily care about how they present themselves. There was one wearing sweat pants and sweat shirt, this doesn’t present the establishment well.

We truly loved our coffees. We tried original options from their ‘spring menu’. We enjoyed the phenomenal ambiance sitting under the glass dome courtyard.

Heard about this great little place from a family member. Stopped in for a late lunch and wow! Tori the bartender took great care of us, drinks were amazing (we had a black Manhattan and the Vesper martini) both were absolutely delicious. We ordered the Mediterranean bowl, roasted seasonal vegetable sandwich and the Italiano sandwich with a cup of the soup of the day (Tomato bisque). We’re big foodies and recognize the creativity of each dish. I highly recommend checking this place out. Cheers!

Gather Coffee - Where Great Coffee Meets Unbeatable Ambiance

Gather Coffee is an absolute delight! The moment you walk in, you’re greeted by an atmosphere so cozy and inviting that it’s impossible not to want to stay a while. The ambiance has a way of making you feel at home, and it’s the kind of place you’ll find yourself returning to again and again.

Their cappuccino is nothing short of perfection—smooth, creamy, and expertly balanced. You can taste the care and craftsmanship in every sip. The sandwiches are just as memorable, packed with fresh ingredients and bursting with flavor. Whether you’re stopping by for a quick bite or indulging in a leisurely meal, Gather Coffee always delivers.

And, of course, the coffee is spectacular. From the rich aroma to the bold, satisfying flavors, it’s clear they’ve mastered the art of coffee-making. Pair that with the warm and inviting setting, and you’ve got a coffee shop that’s second to none.

Gather Coffee is more than just a place to grab a drink; it’s a space to relax, connect, and enjoy some of the best coffee and food around. Highly recommended!

Great coffee. Great baristas. Beautiful bar with marble and high top chairs. And connected to an art gallery. This place checks all the boxes. I had a Gibraltar (cortado)
