Frequently asked questions

Seating, decaf, dogs and beans. The short answers.

Do you take reservations?

We don't. Fern & Filter is walk-in only, so take any open seat. The room turns over quickly between 8:00 and 10:00 if it looks full when you arrive.

Do you serve decaf?

Yes. We pour decaf espresso and decaf drip, both from our own roast. Ask for it by name and there is no wait.

Are you dog-friendly?

Dogs are welcome at the sidewalk tables. Inside seating is for humans only, apart from service animals.

Do you sell whole beans?

We do. Twelve-ounce bags of the house blend and the current single origin are on the shelf behind the counter, roasted that week.

Can I host a small event here?

For groups of ten or more, send us a message through the contact page. We can hold the back tables outside peak hours.
