929 is a local brand offering specialty coffee and treats in Korba. Despite plenty of seating availability, the place is usually packed with people trying to get their caffeine and dessert fix.

Their coffee won’t give you that headrush — but it doesn’t have a bitter aftertaste. If you have a sweet tooth, their vanilla iced latte or their sugary soda concoctions can get the job done. Fancy something more mature that isn’t just plain black coffee? We’d recommend going for the flat white. Also, their desserts are pretty standard, but avoid the ones on display — they may be suffering from the sitting-in-the-display-case-for-way-too-long staleness.

The service and atmosphere make it a cozy spot to catch up with a friend. Their outside area is lovely when you need some fresh air, and is even tolerable on those unexplainable sunny days when they turn on their fans to keep you cool.

You’ll see some remote workers shack up there, but we think it’s too noisy to actually be productive. Since it’s usually quite busy, we don’t think 929 is the best option for a temporary office, but it is fun for friends and meeting with that cousin you never see.

But if you want to get away from the noise, you can order and enjoy their menu in the comfort of your own home. You’ll find their full menu on elmenus or on Facebook.
