cool place good vibes

Not so great coffee, 16oz size tasted watery and def not like a double shot should taste like. We grabbed a couple of pastries to go and to be warmed up. I believe they were warmed up in the microwave so they ended up being ”soggy” and not even warm, eventhough the taste was great. So maybe an air fryer would be nice. Otherwise a cute cafe and lovely service, but would’t go back.

there was no line when we placed our order, yet the drinks took over 10 minutes to be made. The barista kept taking orders after but did not start any orders until every person in the line had ordered. I don’t mind a little wait, but the drinks were not good at all. I ordered a simple ice chai, and my partner ordered their feature egg nog latte. One sip of each and we couldn’t finish them. The chai was made with oat milk for some reason, as well as being very watered down. The egg nog latte had no milk and tasted like black coffee. Very expensive considering it seems they didn’t know how to make the drinks. If it were for how busy it was inside and for the fact that we were already outside when we tasted it, we should have gone back in for a refund. It is a shame as I really enjoy small local spots.

I just paid beyond 4 for a smallest size coffee at this place. Speaking of price gauging. Be fair and charge properly. You can’t get rich in one day.
Won’t be returning.
On another note, maybe you’d like to review and pay attention to your restroom conditions. That speaks loudly of the place hygiene.

Was hoping the coffee is exceptional that it was that expensive, after a sip, tasted like chemicals and it was soooo bad that I threw it away.

Americano isn’t great, wifi is worse.
