I came in around 10:30 this morning and had an experience that honestly felt discriminatory. When I went up to order, the two baristas (one training the other) didn’t acknowledge me at all, I was just standing there awkwardly for what felt a couple of minutes without so much as a “I’ll be right with you.

Eventually they took my order, but when my white friend went up right after me, she was helped more quickly. I also saw a white customer walk in while they were busy, and one of the baristas acknowledged him right away and let him know they’d be with him shortly.

The difference in how we were treated was noticeable, and it’s hard not to see it as a racial microaggression. As a person of color, it’s exhausting to deal with this kind of thing over and over, to be ignored until it’s convenient, only to watch white customers be acknowledged right away. It may not have been intentional, but the impact is the same: it makes people of color feel unwelcome. I hope the staff takes this seriously and reflects on how their behavior comes across.

Great coffee. I was even attacked by a guy outside and he knocked over my coffee and they didn't even charge me to remake. Got the caffe mocha and it was amazing my wife got the sugar free soy vanilla latte and shes picky and she loved it..

Everything is good except for the food. Coffee is super bitter and sandwich is pretty salty… also the avocado toast is kind of overpriced. 12 dollars for a slice of toast…

What a nice place to grab a coffee, an outdoor table and relax at. The caffe mocha was tasty and full of rich chocolate taste. The baked good seems fresh. I approve of the little shop🤣

Quaint coffee shop. The coffee is amazing but their food selection is disappointing. Almost nothing in the way of savory food. However one of us had the quiche and enjoyed it

The dirty chai was honestly the worst I’ve ever had.

Great coffee but on the day I visited only takeout cups were on offer. Limited seating but cakes and food looks good
