This is the best iced Lavender latte I have ever had. My sister loved her hot one, too. Hubby was surprised by the fruitiness of his Kyoto drip. Nice ambience with pretty plants. Barista at register was happy to answer our questions.

This place is a vibe. We pride ourselves, husband and I, on visiting different coffee shops all the time. Sometimes, hitting up an old favorite is a really good thing. The plants are spectacular. The coffee is just as spectacular. It’s accessible and it’s clean. This morning I sat in a swing and watched it snow outside through a jungle of beautiful, green, interesting plants. We had one in and another to go. Seriously. Go experience #thedandylionvibe

I have spent a lot of time in coffee shops and Dandy Lion is my all time favorite. You can’t order something here you won’t like. Their Vietnamese Iced Coffee and their Almond Croissant is my favorite. The vibe here is impeccable. It is also a greenhouse / plant shop and I love looking around every time I come here. I will say to try to avoid going on Saturday morning because it’s always so full and it will be difficult to find a place to sit. I wish they would have a parking lot because it can be difficult to find a place to park as well. Otherwise, I could spend all day here studying or reading. I always bring my friends here if they want to try something new because it will never disappoint. Dandy Lion, I love you and please get a parking lot

The staff was fabulous. They were friendly, knowledgeable, and respectful. The coffee was delivered quickly. I felt sorry for the staff due to parents who refused to watch their children. The place had swings, which could have entertained the kids but instead the parents just let them run around the place. At one point, the kids bumped into me and I spoke up and someone went up to the manager to discuss the issue. They felt it was the parent’s responsibility, which I agree. Come on parents. I was a parent, a big sis, a mentor and a retired educator. Please respect them enough to set limits. It’s not the responsibility of the staff. Help them out too. That truly isn’t their responsibility and it puts them in an awkward position

No almond milk? The macadamia nut milk was not a good replacement. While it has a nice and creamy texture, the total lack of sugar adds to the bitterness of the Huckleberry coffee. A nice barista blend almond milk may enhance the flavor of the coffee, and won't contribute negatively to the environment (you already sell coffee).Taylor's absolutely awesome to chat with and the plants are cool. The atmosphere and vibe are enjoyable and although the coffee isn't my favorite, I will come back and visit because overall, this is a wonderful coffee shop.

Could be a cute place but they use to-go cups and serve their food on paper bags which isn’t the best vibe for sitting at a coffee shop but fine if you are just picking up I guess

Who doesn't love a local coffee shop! A way to be connected to your community and small business loyal folk. Unfortunately the staff (specifically the white folk) outside of like ONE person (sara is so sweet) consistently act like they don't want to be here. Maybe management sucks or their wages are trash, but it's the only reason I don't want to come here on a daily basis. I thought it was a coincidence the few times I have been that the staff were unenthused but turns out it's like every freaking time. Such an unnecessary intimidating environment...
