RACIST. I don’t recommend coming here if you’re a person of color or our ally, read their other reviews about racist experiences. I come to this location quite often, a few times a week because it’s so close to the pier, I usually get a matcha. Today, I was there for about 15 minutes working on my laptop. I hadn’t made a purchase yet as they were out of what I wanted and I was thinking about what to get instead. Again, I’ve been here several times. Someone then came out to tell me I had to order something or leave, in front of everyone. I’m Latina, and I’m never coming here again. I ended up buying this stale scone as I felt like I had to buy something immediately. Scone experience was a 0/10 just like their racism

Average Lattes and the Pastries were stale

Delicious Pour over. It takes some time, but was worth the wait. I would recommend the pour over and I'll be back again.

I ordered an Americano but it was the espresso that truly impressed me. Rich, smooth, and deeply satisfying. The avocado toast was equally memorable: the tanginess of the pickles matched well with the creamy sweetness of the avocado, and the generous amount of black pepper added a nice kick. The staff were friendly and welcoming, making the whole space feel relaxed and inviting. A lovely cafe experience overall.

Having a good time here, coffee is good.

I love this place. Their coffee is great! My favorite is the almond milk latte or a good ole pour over. The Chia seed putting or overnight oats are my quick breakfast grab. If I have more time I live the taste and jam or avocado toast.

A hip little coffee shop located in a community plaza. This shop has limited seating for both inside and outside seating, but that’s okay because most people take their orders to go.

The baristas are welcoming and friendly, offering fast paced service.

I ordered the caramel latte, which was smooth and blended well together. I loved the coffee foam art work.

Top notch coffee! Great brew and beans for sale. Hip, clean, quality. Had small-batch, unique gourmet beans I only see in select shops. Go here every chance I can! Can’t wait to go back.

The coffee here was delicious. One of the baristas offered me a couple of samples before I made my final selection, which was very kind of them. However my visit was soured by a different barista. About 20-30 minutes into my visit , I headed to the back towards the restrooms. A barista stuck out almost half his body out from the bar and meaningfully tried to make eye contact with me. I was puzzled by this and kept walking. When I was returning to my seat, he stepped out of the bar and asked me how I was doing. I said I was fine. He then told me that restrooms were for customers only. I look back at him, puzzled again. I had been seated for half an hour FACING the bar. I told him that I had been sitting here for a while now and he responded in an EXTREMELY dismissive tone - and then avoided making eye contact with me. Really dude? And it wasn’t lost on me that I was the only South Asian at the location at the time.
To the manager - I hope you will take some time to educate your staff on treating customers with kindness and dignity.
