Don't except cash. Will not support such businesses.

We had such a great experience! The service was fantastic, and those iced lattes were delicious, especially the coconut flavor, which quickly became my favorite! We enjoyed it so much that we went back twice during our stay, and each time we were treated to a solid drink.

Nice lil spot. They serve Panther coffee, which is apparently a pretty popular coffee. It was good. The juice was good also, but its just soda and a mixer. It's not a "from scratch" type of juice. The vibe in there was really cool, and close to the beach. The downside was there was only 1 guy working, so it took a little while to order. He was working hard, but can only go so fast.

Great location, but the morning shift is never staffed well. Only one person works. So if three customers are there ordering.. plan on 15 min wait. Sometimes there are 8 people waiting and it take a half hour. You’re better off going elsewhere.

I’m planning to meet friends tomorrow, it we decided to try another place by the pompano pier. They are staffed better so the wait is much quicker.

Also, pastries taste old and prepackaged. They are made fresh. Skip the baked goods.

They no longer have Starbucks coffee, they serve panther coffee, also their posted hours are incorrect, we have gone at 4pm Monday and Sunday and they were closed. Lattes, machiatos and mochas and white chocolate mochas have been good. My kids have enjoyed the frappes.

Kid-friendliness: They have great spots to sit and have shuffleboard in there while you enjoy or wait for coffee.

Coffee drinks acceptable

I could not believe how big this place was! Barista was really friendly, I LOVED my Frappe! And it was nice to walk around in the a/c drinking my drink looking at all the art work. Truly makes me want to come back to try the restaurant and new artists rotation.

Dietary restrictions: Can make things your way. Not like Starbucks sandwiches were they are all premade.

Parking: Street and lot behind building. Recommend to park across the street at Publix and walk over. It's free

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes

Minus one star for the coffee. Even though they supposedly have great beans, the coffee was awful. It was so bitter even with plenty of milk (I took a cappuccino). I am not sure if they are buying this low grade dark roasted beans or if their espresso machine isn’t well set, but it was bad.

Minus another star because the coffee drink we took was awfully sweet. It was impossible to drink.

Also they could not serve any sandwich because their machine was broken.

The place is nice though, it’s in a large hotel lobby with fun art and they have an expensive outdoor sitting.

The coffee is good.

The food is trash. The fillings in the danish is some sort of synthetic plastic mix of food coloring and gelatin.

To the owners: don’t respond to my review thanking me for it or some other ridiculous canned response. Fix your food offering.

On the way to beach looking for a quick stop, and found the sweetest Cafe and staff along the way. This shop was very convenient right off the road and easy parking, with alot of space if I was planning to stay for awhile. The staff was very personable and helpful and my drink was steamed to perfection. Sometimes, when ordering steamed almond mylk; the wrong type is used for steaming, or for too long, which creates a bitter flavor, however this was one of the best ones I had with almond mylk in the area. Will be returning most certainly!

Wheelchair accessibility: Easy to navigate with a wheelchair, plenty of space inside and outside for a chair to wheel up to a table.
