Staff were very unfriendly. Latte was lukewarm when asked for it to be heated barista looked at me like I was a roach and informed me that it would be unsanitary to do so. Had my foot resting on a chair while drinking my lukewarm drink and the cashier told me to get my feet off of the furniture. Nothing to terrible but enough to where I was uncomfortable and won’t come back. There are 5 other coffee shops in walking distance.
Looove coming here to study❤️
I loved the decor at this place! The coffee is really good, plus they have some clearly marked vegan desserts. I saw tea cookies and cupcakes. The cupcake was honestly one of the best I’ve had. They stay open pretty late too, which is a plus.
Is right next R Place. A lot of bagel and croissant sandwiches and vegan options like the vegan sausage and avocado then sweets I recommend the vegan coconut macaroons. There is a poster board area by the door for community events. I vome here every so often for MeetUp.com. Very relaxed environment to use your computer downstairs or upstairs be near the eclectic nostalgia fun ☺️. Thank you!

Really want to like this place. Late night coffee shop! Yay.
But it failed on all the important stuff. Spiced chai latte was just hot milk. No comfy seating. The brownie was terrible. Waited ages to be served.
Maybe it’s just not their night

Worst Lestat's in the chain! Music is entirely too loud and they are OBSESSED with country. I mean what is that? It screams rainbow capitalism but also forced. What are they trying to convey here?
Outside of that it's ok. If you want to study here just know your noise cancelling headphones can only do so much. If you need a charge spot, there are plenty. The crowd size is low in the mornings. Overall you can skip here unless you are desperate for a new coffee shop.

A mistake was made and I was left waiting longer than expected for food. The manager noticed and corrected the issue as soon as he realized what had happened.
