I highly recommend Kornerstone Cafe. It has the best coffee and cold brew around, and the lattes are great and strong! The staff is wonderful and highly knowledgeable about the many menu choices.

I got the vegan wrap on bread versus lettuce, it was delicious. It contains avocado, sun dried tomatoes, onions, sprouts, and basil hummus. It was quick, and on time when I ordered it.

Chicken was a big NO. cream of mushroom was extremely oily. Lettuce wraps are amazing! Strawberry green tea was awesome. Ive had their smoothies... Some good some bad. Basil hummus is awesome. Photo attached is the soup.

Great atmosphere and bright and airy. Fabulously smooth coffee drinks. The Vegan "Chicken" Salad is fresh and filled with apple pieces, walnuts, and grapes. Refreshing! Was pleasantly surprised with the variety of gluten free bread options! The gluten free everything bagel was delicious... light, fluffy, and amazing toasted with cream cheese. It's so hard to find gluten free bread options but I'm happy to report that this is a spot that has a good selection! Highly recommend if you like smoothies, juices, and overall simply fresh and clean food items that you'll enjoy eating. Although it may seem a touch pricey, believe me, the quality is well worth it!

I love a healthy option and Kornerstone was just that. I am not from the Buffalo area - in fact, I'm from the Midwest, so I found Kornerstone on a Google search for coffee near me. We stopped in around 9:00am on a Friday, and it was not busy at all. My husband and I ordered our usual 1 iced and 1 hot vanilla latte. I added sugar free vanilla and almond milk to my iced latte. I can appreciate a cafe with sugar free options and milk alternatives. My iced latte tasted very good, however, for whatever reason, my husbands hot latte tasted watery. We literally ordered the same drink and his tasted terrible. And one other note on the iced latte - they gave me one of those paper straws, and it did not hild up well for very long. In addition to our coffee, we order the PB&J Acai Bowl to share. And it certainly is a sharable serving size. We did have to wait about 10 minutes for the preparation of the acai bowl which I can also appreciate. But if you are on a time crunch, I would encourage ordering something that's ready to go. I think most of their menu items are prepared fresh. Hot top: I found out that the offer online ordering too if you prefer to grab & go. The menu offers not only generically healthy options, but also options for vegetarians and vegans alike. Such a good thing in today's day and age. If I lived in the area, I would probably frequent Kornerstone. I would love to have been able to explore their other menu items: fresh pressed juices, smoothies, salads, sandwiches, other breakfast items. The dine in option is open, the dining area is clean and well-kept. The cafe is decorated with some vintage, old brick masonry vibe. In reading other reviews, I can deduce that this cafe is local, and I always like to support local when traveling!

This is place is absolutely fabulous!! Everything is so fresh and tasty and nourishing, and the prices are extremely fair. I’ve only ordered takeout, but I’ll definitely check it out in person soon. The little smiley faces they draw on all my takeout containers next to my name are so sweet and always make my day too!

This is a food place to try for breakfast. They have some good options to eat besides fruits and juices. Place interior is also very upscale feel. Servers were very nice and helpful. Had Bagel, Avocado toasts which were fine tasting too. Overall 4/5 ⭐
