I usually enjoy working at French Press while my dog is groomed at the Pet Depot, but my visit today was so disappointing. I arrived a little after 3 pm (about an hour before closing), bought an iced coffee (which was obviously in a to-go cup), and confirmed with the male barista that it was fine to stay and work on my laptop nearing closing at 4 pm as others who were there before me began to leave. While the male barista was very polite and friendly, the female staff in the kitchen came up to the front and began loudly complaining about customers coming in before closing and how inconsiderate it was while I, a customer, was sitting right there. She very clearly saw me and I was the only one there. I had already ordered, I made no mess for them to clean up after me, and was just working in silence. I was so uncomfortable with the loud and long ranting, that I closed my laptop, picked up my cup and left at 3:36 pm. Very unprofessional, and unfortunately I don’t feel comfortable returning. I really like this cafe and the owners are so welcoming so I'm sad that I now need to find a new place to work at while my dog gets groomed.

This is a cute little coffee shop. It has a small outdoor seating area as well as a small indoor seating area. I had a tomato basil soup that was delicious. And the friend I was with had a honey cappuccino which they said was delicious but a little heavy on the honey. The staff were super friendly and accommodating. Great little place. Definitely give it a try.

Don't bother adding extra toppings, you don't get them.

This place instantly became my new favorite place the moment I stepped food inside. I almost dont want to share this review because if more people find out about it I wont have the luxury of enjoying this peaceful, tasteful and eclectic cafe. But they deserve the praise. The team and the owner are super kind. Food and drinks are delicious. So far my favorite latte by far is the one with vanilla, honey and lavender. The breakfast sandwich on sourdough I added ham was super yummy!

A very cute atmosphere, the food is ok but homemade, the coffee is a little weak. Cute place for the vibes and to sit down but I wouldn't recommend making it your go to spot.

I found this coffee shop as a halfway point to meet with my manager since we both work remotely. When we arrived, the place was a bit busy, but a kind couple made space for us at the front table with stool seating. The interior decor was nice and inviting.
I tried one of the January special drinks, which was delicious, along with a chocolate croissant. My manager opted for tea and a bagel. Unfortunately, when her drink was delivered, the server accidentally spilled a good portion on my arm, pants, and scarf. They quickly grabbed a cloth to clean the table but then used the same cloth to dab the tea off me, which felt a bit careless.
Despite staying for several hours and ordering a second round of drinks and dessert, there was no acknowledgment or apology beyond that moment—no offer of a replacement drink or any gesture of goodwill. Unfortunately, my scarf ended up stained.
While the coffee and ambiance were great, the lack of customer service in handling the spill left a disappointing impression.

DISCLAIMER: its been a few months (think 1/3 thru 2024) since I have actually been there, and am only now writing this review because I'm lazy AF, but everything I have written was true at the time.
I have been here like 3 times, twice with family, once with friends. The first two times were fine, and the rating might have been a 3 because everything (food, service, atmosphere) was not bad but not good. But the third and last time I went there is why I am rating it so low. First of all, food was okayyy def homemade vibes, meaning there was nothing special that you cannot do at home, but its still edible. However, DO NOT get the baked goods, that is not made in the store, they definitely buy it from elsewhere and leave it there for too long. The decor was interesting... not my taste but gave my eyes smth to look at. The worst thing was that SERVICE WAS NOT IT. They messed up orders for another table (gave my table the other table's order) and my table went to inform them. Yet, the server seemed annoyed at us?? she said in an exasperated tone "what's wrong?" and rolled her eyes. I can understand having a bad day, but rolling her eyes was unnecessary, especially when we were just trying to help. The other server was really loud, in what I thought was going to be a quiet cafe to chat with my friends but we could barely get a word out without hearing him yell, although you can't really blame him cuz I am pretty sure he was disabled. I brought my friends to check out the place, it was a MISTAKE to give them our business.

Super cute! I got a standard breakfast (eggs, toast, bacon) and a delicious ube vanilla latte. The seeded multi grain bread was the star of the breakfast dish.
