Cozy Spot, but the Coffee Needs a Refresh"
This little coffee shop has a lot going for it: a cozy atmosphere, vintage decor, and a relaxed vibe that makes it a great spot for a coffee date or some quiet time. The seating is comfortable, and the staff are friendly and welcoming.
However, the coffee itself fell a bit short of expectations. While the menu has potential, the beans they use seem to be on the older side, which affects the flavor. The coffee had a slightly stale undertone, lacking the vibrant, fresh taste that coffee lovers crave.
That said, the pastries were delightful, and the ambiance makes it worth a visit if you’re more focused on the experience than the coffee. With fresher beans, this place could easily become a local favorite!

I had a delicious broccoli quiche and a couple of empanadas. Very well priced, filled to the brim and they had this light mustardy sauce on the side that I ended up slathering all over the empanadas I liked it so much.
I got a large cappuccino and it was good, but kinda disappointed especially after the food. But the service, pricing and the rest made up for it. I'll try other espresso options in the future and let you know if it improves. I'll be back for more quiches and treats.
Parking: There isn't a dedicated parking lot that I noticed so you will need to find street parking
