There is a reason why this coffee shop is the best in town and deserves five star all across. Not only they always make my coffee right and their pastries are yummy, more importantly, they’re not trying to rip off tourist or local residents. This place and the surrounding grounds are beautiful and very suitable for people that work from home.

They had this croissant type pastry with apple filling - it was one of my favorite pastries I’ve ever had at a coffeeshop! The drinks were yummy and the staff was friendly
