My sis and I happened upon this place while visiting Old Town, and the atmosphere and coffee are just superb!
The set-up is so cute, and was actually perfect.
Not only were the gals who were running it so kind, but the coffee was quickly made, and probably one of the best iced lattes I've had (anywhere), period!
Definitely recommend the iced latte with a shot of vanilla.
Muchos Gracias!

This is such a gem! I was in the area for a work retreat. On my walk from the hotel to our meeting location I found this little tiny house. I stopped to get an iced latte and it was delicious. The coffee beans they use are so good. The stag for 3 days straight was absolutely delightful. Warm, welcoming and super complimentary which is the best way to start your day

Great little spot! Coffee was delicious, I tried the iced white mocha and banana nut bread. The white mocha was creamy but you could taste the caffeine and the banana nut bread tasted home made.

Cute shop and really nice people but unfortunately the coffee was a miss. Latte was watery and not creamy, and definitely no espresso taste. All I could taste was raspberry syrup. Lemon cake was super dry. Way overpriced for what they serve unfortunately.

Got a large "Disney in a cup" with soy and it came to $8 something. So delicious! Best coffee I've had in a long time! Came with 3 shots.
Also got a large hot "Mexican mocha" with soy (vegan) and it tasted like a Mexican pastry of sorts. It was tasty.
They don't have the plumbing for waters, but do offer water bottles for purchase.
Vegetarian options: Some drinks can be ordered vegan.

My spot!! White Mocha for the pick me up!
Great small local coffee hole in the wall! Very good classic coffee options with a monthly menu that varies creative new flavors. The kind tends to be short and service is a little slow since there’s only one person working usually but we don’t mind since the coffees a good and reminds us to take a breath, we usually meet friendly neighbors along the way. Street parking is available and there’s two assigned spots in the lot that’s shared with Home And Away. They also have some light breakfast and pastry options home made.
