So this place was super chill and had great coffee. I'm not really a person who tries new stuff when it comes to my coffee unless it sounds really really good. But this time I saw a mint mocha coffee that was seasonal and I just had to try it and I'm glad I did cause it was amazing. The 2 people who were working the counter were awesome and pretty fast . I loved that it wasn't super busy and the lighting gave the place a good vibe.

Nice coffee shop ambiance where they roast Monocacy brand coffee. You can actually see the coffee roaster toward the back of the coffee shop. It's also a bakeshop, although baked goods were brought in from another bakery. I bought cup of hot coffee to go, which was okay.

Wonderful ambience, sustainable practices, and a great location to meet a friend for coffee. Love their pastries. They have some savory options as well!

We've been using Monocacy Coffee Co. beans for not only coffee service but for our carajillos and espresso martinis! The sumatra blend stands out exquisitely in each cocktail!

The best coffee in the Lehigh Valley! And if that isn't enough, their delicious homemade baked goods, assortment of teas, and artisan craft gifts are sure to delight. Great atmosphere and wonderful owner and staff. Amazing treasure!!!

Lit is truly a staple of the Southside Bethlehem scene. They support Southside small businesses so well and are a shining example of why small businesses should be supported. They roast their own coffee (Shoutout to Mike & Dan with Monocacy Coffee), bake their own pastries (Shoutout to Lino with Made by Lino), and do both so incredibly well. The pastries are a bit pricey, but that's because they are so far and above any danish from Starbucks or muffin from Dunkin. The coffee is arguably the best I've ever had. I'm super into coffee, I make my own espresso drinks at home, and Lit coffee is always my favorite to use. The staff is so incredibly personal, the owners are true Bethlehem icons, and you will not be disappointed giving Lit a try. I recommend it wholeheartedly. Long live Lit!

Loved this coffeehouse. We had wonderful tea, coffee and brownies! The saffron chai latte was perfectly spicy.

I’ve been buying Monocacy Coffee for myself and as gifts for friends when I travel ever since years ago when they were only operating at the NCC farmers market. Their coffee is top notch. My friends who I regularly gift their coffee beans to when I visit my original hometown love their coffee so much. Per doctor’s orders I’m strictly a decaf person these days, but even their decaf is wonderful. I highly recommend their coffee for yourself, and as the perfect gift for your friends who love good coffee. They are the kindest and sweetest people too. It’s good to support a wonderful local small business.
AMAZING options here for vegans!! We tried three of the four vegan options. The pain au chocolat, savory croissant, and sourdough pastelito were all delicious. My oat milk latte was stellar as well. This is my favorite cafe in Bethlehem so far. Excellent place!!!

I've been here dozens of times, fresh roasted beans can't be beat! These guys take their coffee seriously.
