Altiora Coffee Shop

Loved this place, used to get the teas and bagel sandwiches. The coffees were exciting and flavorful. Girlfriend is a total coffee snob and even see was impressed.
Tried to get some grub and sludge to go Sunday, but it was closed. Big sign says under new management and opening soon. This would be great because its a quality place. I just hope they are able to make the inside more comforting and inviting.
Can’t wait for the grand re-​opening

I had hopes for this little place, since it’s a mile from my house respectively. Maybe I caught them too early (it’s plausible… I have an infant who gets up early, so we were there just after they opened on a Saturday)…anyway, being Autumn, I ordered a Pumpkin Spice Latte which was… rather tasteless. And I ordered a muffin and a scone which were ginormous and also rather… tasteless. The staff was two younger girls, both nice, but who promptly disappeared into a back kitchen area after I placed and received my order. I was going to ask for a box or some sort of bag, but noone ever came back out… $ 12.00 later and I think I’d still rather make my coffee and sweets at home.

Im a big fan of this place. I hate Starbucks and since there is no 7−11s in this area it was hard for me to find a place I could just pop in and get a cup of what I considered «good coffee» (unless I went to Burger King or something, but I feel gross there)
Anyway, this place has some great coffee. I’m very satisfied with it. It tastes like real coffee, not that weird «I cant explain whats wrong with it» flavor of starbucks coffee. I only drink coffee on the weekends, so when I discovered this place on saturday I went back sunday.
I haven’t really tried any of their food yet but it looks really good, The muffins are obscenely huge (like the size of 2 fists) and they have crazy flavor gelatos that I really want to try (caramelized sea salt, dark chocolate orange, lemon basil were some i noticed). This place is definitely a welcome addition to Florence, KY

Though I admit that I’m not much of a coffee drinker, I’m always looking for new places with wi-​fi where I can spend some time getting my work down away from home. Altiora is the perfect place. Clean, unassuming, with a friendly staff, convenient location, and fast internet connection, this little coffee shop is sure to become a fixture for me. It sits in a new retail center next to Boone County High School, and is open seven days a week.
I ordered a tall Sisco Kid, which is a frothy frozen beverage made with white chocolate, carmel, and Oreos topped with whip cream. Definitely not for the calorie-​phobic, but I tried to make up for it by ordering a healthy lunch. I got a pick-​two that was comprised of half a Gardener Panini (pesto, provolone, cucumber, tomato, pickle, and lettuce) and a house salad (organic spring mix, goat cheese, almond slivers, and dried cranberries) with house-​made poppy-​seed dressing. Yum! I was very pleased with everything that I ordered. I also saw that they sell gelato, but I was too stuffed to partake. Maybe next time!
