Review & FAQ:

Holsem Coffee is an exciting new entry into North Park's coffee scene, co-owned by Salpi Sleiman, the founder of former mobile coffee cart enterprise Roast Coach Coffee Bar.

The cafe focuses on a menu of cocktail-style coffee mocktails, blending offsite-roasted brews with homemade fruit purees, nut milks, and syrups to create truly unique coffee-drinking experiences.

Cocktails include the spice-infused Gingersnap cold brew and the La Vie en Rose, which infuses a traditional cappuccino with flavors of honey, cardamom, rose water, and rose petal. Espresso shakes, affogatos, and cold brew floats are also served up, using ice cream provided by Gelato Vero. Traditional and gluten-free pastries are sourced from Bake Sale, and a light cafe fare menu includes items such as gluten-free buckwheat granola, brown rice porridge, seasonal quiche, and charcuterie boards.
