Amazing coffee and pastries that are thoughtfully made and curated! Cafe design is exquisite- a bright, open space to do some much needed chilling. New owners are delightful as well :)

This place is soooo cute! I got a slice of banana bread, and i didn't regret it. They make most of their pastries in house. They cold brew was pretty solid also!

I am so glad these guys came back after a brief hiatus. There was nowhere else to grab a delicious coffee, and I wasn't settling for Starbucks up the block. It seems like the place has transformed from the previous version (especially in a good way). Do yourself a favor and grab the breakfast sandwich, they usually sell out before 10 am.

Best cold brew I’ve ever had hands down. Super flavorful and refreshing. Quiche was very tasty. Everything was very affordable especially considering how fashionable the place is. Very friendly staff and all around positive vibes. Definitely will be coming back here a lot as I am new to the neighborhood.

Good coffee and pastries. Kind of stark inside. Went twice, and service was better by far with the ladies.

Always friendly and relatively quiet to get some work done. The scones are a treat too. In stages they are getting even better. Great for the neighborhood!

4LW coffee is delicious. But even better are the pastries made in house. I cried when I bit into the Cranberry & Hot Honey Scone this morning.

Located in the former location of the beloved Atomix Cafe rises the quaint, bright, clean lines of Prequel. Walking in you take a whiff of its unique smell and are greeted warmly by the staff. There are plants in the corners and others draping off the ceiling. They contrast sharply with the white walls and minimalist art. The decor is every bit what I call "Modern Dental". Clean white surfaces, sharp lines, and overall airy and bright. The menu is small, but each drink is high quality and tasty. They have the full range of espresso drinks, coffee, cold brew, and kombucha. Their baked goods taste fresh and are worth a purchase. The sit down experience is on par with other coffee shops in the area. If you get a drip coffee they offer refills and the wifi is reliable and fast. One aspect that is missing at the time of this review is seating diversity. Your options are a table. And that's it. Yes there is bar space, but it is not clear if customers can sit there. It looking like they are expanding the seating but I'm not sure. The seats though are quite comfortable and it is a nice space to work or meet someone. The biggest negative of prequel is the noise. It is an echo chamber in the literal sense of the word. Noise bounces off every hard edge and corner of the building. It definitely can throw off a "chill vibe" but the place is still new every time I come they are adding new things, so it could be temporary. Overall though, Prequel adds tremendous value to the neighborhood. The coffee is good and the staff are nice. I love going here and the experience gets better and better every time!
Edit: I have changed my review to 5 stars. They have added a lot and this place is awesome now!

Sunny, clean, and tasty! I meet my coworker here twice a week before we head out to see customers together. I look forward to each visit! Danielle makes outrageous, creative pastries so come hungry!

This place was so cool! Definitely worth a stop. They just started allowing people to sit inside again, with a mask if you are unvaccinated of course. Their coffee menu is simple, but has every thing you need, cold brew, nitro, I had an amazing vanilla latte! The staff is friendly, the location makes it easy to get in and out, the pastries are AMAZING!

Really cute new coffee shop in Ukrainian Village brewing 4LW coffees. Love the vibe and having a place that can pull decent espresso drinks in the neighborhood. Excited to see when they are fully open for grabbing a coffee to stay.
