Especially a trendy locally owned shop instead of some big chain coffee shop. \nTheir lattes are good, nothing fancy or over the top. \nThey also have a variety of locally made pastries. It's hit or miss on what you will find. \nIt's also nice that they host a place for bands to play. \nParking is a bit of a pain because you can't park on the street out front. I have to park a couple streets away and walk over. So it makes it difficult if you wanna just park close and run in quickly to grab something. \nOverall Black Forge is a great addition to the Allentown neighborhood."^^ . .
