Cute, local coffee shop. They have great pastries.

Coffee is a little too acidic for my taste, but that is a matter of preference not quality.

Come here a lot but just had a really bad experience. They microwaved my bagel and drowned it in butter. It was not good. Also, latte was burned.

I think there’s new staff but it was really really bad.

The manager here is really weird and he doesn’t treat his workers very well. I saw him cussing and I felt awkward being there. Food is good but I like the coffee place at Flowerland better! 10 times better!

We got one ube latte and one regular latte. They both taste great. Especially ube I would highly recommend. Don’t forget to reduce sweetness to half, otherwise could be so sweet. Though lattes a bit pricy :(

Cute local coffee shop. They have both inside and outside tables. I walk several extra blocks to come here instead of a chasing store and think it's worth it. The baked goods in particular are delicious.

I've been here a few times now and the service has always been amazing! Everyone that works here is so sweet & has genuine conversations with customers. The atmosphere is also comforting and chill without trying too hard. I recommend the hojicha, ube latte, and ube lemonade. <3

I got 15 minutes parking and went in to buy a chai and something to eat. The server forgot my chai order as others who came after me got their coffees and left, i thought it might take longer for the chai to make. After reminding for the chai, i got it in 2-3 minutes and got the ticket too of $45. A bad day or a donation for the city. Therefore, i am giving a 1 star for the service.

Small coffee shop with three counter stools. The coffee is pretty good and they have a decent selection of bagels and pastries. I would personally avoid the odd flavored lattes they have including purple potato and black sesame. I’ve ordered both and they seem to just use a flavored syrup in a regular latte which makes it taste a little fake.

Good coffee otherwise.

Good: staff are nice, chill place to sit and people watch, and have a pastry/drink

Bad: espresso. Been here at least 3 times and the staff here likely aren’t trained to pull a good shot of espresso.
This last visit, my cortado was over extracted and had grounds in it.

Maybe it’s the general public, usually preferring milk drinks so they don’t feel the need to pull good shots. Who knows..?
But why source interesting, single origin beans, with various processing methods if you’re not gonna dial in your beans?
Every time I leave disappointed, likely won’t come back for espresso drinks, but will try other drinks.

Coffee has been ok but I am heavily pregnant with our second cihld and the place was almost NINETY DEGREES INSIDE!! Me and hubby had to leave. Unacceptable temperature . Hope the cheaper electricity bill is worth losing customers 🙅🏿
