Omg, I was expecting corporate office park, and instead this is a really cute and delicious coffee shop! Friendly staff, more than I’ve come to expect from most places. Tasty coffee, well dialed in espresso. The food was sourced from Boichik and Firebrand, and the sandwich we had was fantastically balanced. Then the atrium was filled with plants and stone benches, with a big fountain outside. Very big fans of this place.

One of my favorite places! The seating area is serene and very green. The Vietnamese iced coffee with their seasonal cold cream is always perfect. The staff is also friendly.

This place is a hidden gem. Friendly baristas (many of whom sell crafts and trinkets!), soft and tasty boba, and a beautiful seating area full of plants.
Rating 5 stars to support a small business but I really wish I could customize the sweetness of my drinks! All the fun drinks only come at 100% sugar and it’s way sweeter than my preference.
Love the drinks here and plantbased milk selection, the sandwich was just ok. The sitting area is beautiful. The staff are artistens and have mini shops in the café, we bought stickers.

My favorite coffee shop in the area! Literally everything they make is incredible: their boba, matcha, pastries and lunch specials (especially soups) are incredible! So sad they're closed on the weekends

Absolutely the worst coffee I’ve tasted. The cappuccino our group had was burned; the latte had no coffee taste or no shots of espresso in the drink; Vietnamese coffee was all sugar and too sweet. Service was great though, friendly cashiers and staff. Atmosphere in the atrium is great with tropical indoor plants (Triostars, Monsteras, Pothos).

very pretty café but can be hot. food & drinks are excellent except online ordering is wacky in that they’ll take off certain breakfast items before breakfast closes and then you frantically try to call them to order and then you get told it’s only available online ???I literally took a day off work to try to catch them open because their opening hours are so limited???this is my only disappointmenthighly recommend their daily special drinks, they’re a very good deal

Breakfast burrito is not good. Pre made egg and very strange. Just a warning for those who consider trying it.

This is my FAVORITE cafe, any time I can make it over is a special treat. They have such uniquely crafted drinks, and such kind workers. They also have really cool art and tea-esque things for sale in-store!!!! I've gotten yummy syrups from there.

Reminds me of coffee shops at research universities. Corn and cheese panini was more tasty than I expected!
