The baristas work very hard.The Arnold Palmer is the best I’ve ever had.coffee is decent and Frappes are good but the pastries and wraps could be better. Should be homemade/fresh for the prices charged.

For a coffee shop next to Yale, it has such potential but falls short. Came in for a coffee and an apple crumble. The crumble was in a plastic box, clearly brought in from somewhere else (a supermarket by the quality). Not served on a plate even though I told them I was eating in. Not offered to be warmed up. Americano was bitter. No one was rude, and it’s a clean place , but such low quality. Not recommended.

Was crowded here but they still had wonderful service and ambience. I got a strawberry matcha and a pastry slice, both were exceptional and memorable. Would definitely stop by again!

I’ve been coming here for a year almost every day for my morning coffee. The baristas are incredibly friendly and professional, even during their busiest hours, where other businesses often fall short in kindness and professionalism. The coffee is great, and their chocolate croissant (get it warm!) is indulgent and delicious! They also have a nice selection of prepared foods (pasta salad, wraps, etc) that taste great! The atmosphere is a bit bland at this location, so it doesn’t necessarily invite coming in to sit down and hang for a bit, but all in all it’s worth a visit!

This is the single worse experience I’ve ever had in a coffee shop. It is abundantly obvious they use the lowest quality products and it comes out in the taste on whatever you put in your mouth. Go somewhere else.
The coffee is amazing but the music is the WORST. I got here just after 7AM and it’s been an electronic dance party that I can hear through my noise-canceling headphones. Seriously like hard house music. Def don’t recommend if you want to get anything done.
Great for take out coffee

I got the pistachio matcha latte. Any semblance of matcha is completely overtaken by the sweet, artificial flavor of the pistachio syrup; so much so that I’m prob gonna make my own matcha at home to mix into this drink. The staff also makes simple interaction feel awkward 😞
If i could describe this place with one word in my own language i would say pizdec.
It's better than Starbucks, in my opinion. Larger variety of drink options and better prices. Great seasonal selection of flavors. Service was extremely quick. Went at 11 am
Take a break and treat yourself to some goodness today!
