Overall, this place is fine! The coffee was fine, the service was fine, and the ambiance is fine. It seems to be The place all of the trendy young people hang out for average coffee to complete their schoolwork.
Not the best latte in Nelson, but I’m certain it’s not the worst

Great coffee shop! Great coffee!
The Salted Dark Chocolate Cookie is amazing look at the size of that!

The baristas were lovely, vibes were great. Love the outdoor sitting area, 100% will be back next time we are in town.

Baked goods amazing, coffee awesome. Best breakfast sandwich I've had in a while. Capocollo with caramelized onions, some tasty hollandaise. Wow. Not my first visit and I will be back. And I'll tell anyone and everyone. Awesome.

Cozy coffee place. Lots of space for people to stay there for awhile and not be rushed out. There's even a little outdoor seating area.

The mocha I had was amazing. Not too sweet but not bitter either.

All I have to say is that charging $6.30 cents for a peanut butter brownie is ridiculous amout to charge. It did not taste anywhere close to warranting that price! They also don't post their prices beside their items so you gotta stand in line all the way to the till before you find out the price. Even the cashier seemed embarrassed that it cost that much. 🤨 Never going back.

Went there two days when we had a holiday in nelson.

Muffins are really nice, they have different selections of them every day and they are not too sweet. We had black forest, almond banana, pecan and black cherry muffins during these two days.

But the breakfast bun is alright, too small for its price ($7-$8). Coffee is okay.
We also ordered some orange dark chocolate cheese cake. It looks amazing but the cream cheese is SO sweet, it feels like burning our throats.. if you like really sweet stuff you will be okay

Absolutely love the food, staff, and environment. Wait times just depend on how busy it is, but nothing too bad. The only thing that confuses me is that sometimes an order comes out and you don't always know if it's yours or someone else's. Just keep in mind when you ordered. My go-to place when I'm needing some nice coffee and food
