Excellent coffee and a great neighborhood spot! Find some time to hangout there.

Acoustics are terrible. The dish washing experience is very loud -- like they are throwing the dishes around. Very loud. Not at all a relaxing experience, if that's what you're going for.

Call me a cheapskate but I was NOT expecting to pay $7.25 for a 12 ounce latte. I tried the seasonal cinnamon spice mocha. I was totally caught off guard when the barista rang me up at $7.25 (I may have overlooked pricing on the menu, but I wouldn’t have ordered if I knew that ahead of time). I went ahead with the order but almost lost my appetite because of the price. The latte was fine. It was well balanced, not too sweet, not too spicy, although lacking in espresso flavor. Regardless, definitely too rich for my blood. I won’t go back.

The service was great but I was visiting from out of town and left my charger there and I called, left a message and messaged on social media and nobody has gotten back to me.

Very sad this place was a let down as we live very close. Came to visit while my parents were in town. The croissants and grilled cheese were good. The coffee however, none of the cups besides hot chocolate were labeled so we had a hard time figuring out Whoes was Whoes. The coffees didn’t have added cinnamon in any of them like we asked, they were very bland. The hot chocolate literally tasted like water we added chocolate when we got home 🤣 the hot chocolate was in a small cup and they stated the lid didn’t fit the small cup so be careful. Why even put it in that cup then when a kid is drinking it!? You should have just made the drink it’s normal size and then put it in a bigger cup that had a working lid!? The lady was really rude to my dad when he went up and just asked for a bigger cup simply so our kid could have a lid and drink it. Didn’t seem like a big problem. Won’t go back, bland drinks and rude service.

Great space to get some work done, with super solid coffee. More importantly though, this place has one of the best breakfast sandwiches in Colorado. If you haven't tried it yet, it's worth a visit on its own.

The coffee here is fantastic, definitely the best I've had in Colorado Springs so far. I haven't tried the food yet, but the avocado toast looks incredible!
