A really nice place to get some easy work done. Old retro vibes! Music at a decent volume! Just a chill place to hang out with yourself.

One of my favorite neighborhood spots! Divey without being gross, just comfy. Spots to sit inside and outside. Chill and good vibes.

Impeccable vibes and great service - plus fabulous local beers on tap and apricot bars to die for. I'd post a picture of both, but they were gone too fast!!
Great place to chat with friends or get some work done on a laptop. Cozy ambiance, excellent coffee.
Best Banana Bread I’ve ever had. 🔥🔥🔥

Rating 5 stars mainly for ambiance and because I’d go back and try other things. Really charming, cozy place with all ages gathered- seems like an established community hub. There’s people working on laptops and just hanging out. Unfortunately the thing I ordered was not satisfying but I’ll try something else next time. I ordered a chai latte and it tasted nothing like any chai I’ve had. I had my two friends take sips of my drink too to verify and they said it tasted like ginger tea. I wonder if my drink got mixed up somehow or if they ran out of chai? If they ran out, I’d rather have been told so I could’ve gotten something else. My friends enjoyed their coffees and bagels. Friendly people and great atmosphere make it worth it for me to come back, try something new, and recommend to others.
Oh also! The writing on the cups was beautiful :)

You can tell this is a community gathering place. Very laid back and people knew each other.
We were not content with our order. ,we wanted two single orders of espresso and getting one shot divided into two demitasses was not cool.
First cup had the froth and filled 3/4 th of the way. Second cup had no froth and filled 1/4 of the way. Plus it was cold.
Very disappointed.
If you are familiar with how espresso should be served and want a hot shot of it, this is not the place.
