I thought the coffee was pretty good. Again, just got the drip coffee and they have a rotating bean selection for that. I had the brazil beans and they were okay. Good spot to walk to and just relax in, and the other restaurants in the area allow for a good spot for a date or lunch.

Has all of the potential but WAY too slow service. It shouldn’t take 25 minutes for two lattes.

It’s safe to say this place is a gem. We tried the horchata iced latte, which was hands down the best latte I’ve ever had. The flavors were on point, perfectly balanced between creamy and refreshing. We also got a charcoal vanilla latte, which had a unique twist and was equally impressive.
The staff was incredibly friendly, and the vibe of the place is unmatched. They’ve got a sick vinyl collection with a listening station, and the music they had playing just added to the experience. They have niche artwork, with some awesome pieces featuring the bars from the Beastie Boys, which just adds to the cool factor. Honestly, Starbucks has nothing on these guys. Highly recommend checking this spot out!

Ok so here is the scoop. The coffee is really good and they have unique flavor combinations and if you want a fun flavor explosion in your mouth this is the place to go. Unfortunately though they don’t follow the hours they have posted online. I came at 3:35 and they were already closing up. Hours online say they close at 4 on the weekends. If you are open until a certain time, I expect to be able to order until closing, at least to take it to go. I've been in the restaurant industry for years so I get the urge to close up shop early if its slow but if a customer walks in during business hours, I think you need to serve them instead of turning them away because you already “cleaned the coffee machines” especially when technically you are still open. And from the looks of some of the other reviews this isn’t an Isolated incident, looks like they have closed up shop early before. This is why they get 3 starts instead of 5. Maybe change the hours online if you guys want to leave earlier.

I had the charcoal vanilla iced and I finished the whole thing before the picture. I do recommend this drink. The also bring a DJ vendors and food. Here’s Edithapottery. The best thing there’s a tap room next door. With a small gallery. Check their instagram.

Very cute and artistic coffee shop is kinda in the middle of nowhere. But once you stepped inside, the whole space is bright and modern. I ordered a honey cinnamon latte which is very delicious! They also have a big space in the back hosting art shows, it’s quite nice!

Great place with unique drinks and chill atmosphere. Also dog friendly!
Wheelchair accessibility: Main entrance is a bit steep of a hill but they always have their side area open which is basically flat. No steps anywhere

Coffee was good, but I agree with the other reviewer that this place is not for the locals. Felt very unwelcoming and pretentious. Also, $7 for a 12 ounce coffee is a federal crime
Update: Review changed to 1 star because why do businesses insist on arguing in the comments ? so unprofessional
The coffee is good, the atmosphere is relaxed! They have space inside and outside! They have some artwork on display and overall it's a good experience. Even when there was an error in my order, they resolved it and were always very kind. Maybe a little more variety in desserts or rolls, I was a little late but I still wish they still had options.
