What a nice coffee and sandwich shop. The girl who made our coffee for us was very friendly. We sat outside at one of their tables, and the girl made our coffee brought water out for our pups. Decided to have a chicken salad wrap while we were there, and it was very good. A different girl brought the order out so she could meet our pups.

Great frappe's I've not had the food but it looks good. The place is clean, bright and decorated nicely. They close at 3 and on Sundays so get there before they close.

We stopped in at about 1 PM on a Saturday in January 2024 for lunch. We had quiche without meat, but they do have a meat one also. We also had the duo turkey sandwich and salad. Both were served within 10 minutes. We enjoyed the lunch. We were able to customize the order. Table seemed to have some crumbs on it, that were not visible but we could feel them. Clean restroom. The staff was very friendly to us.Vegetarian options: They cater to vegetarians.Dietary restrictions: They mention they have gluten free options.

If you're a real coffee drinker, (and boy am I ever!) then you need to come visit. It was cold caffeine for us today. The cold brew is as rich and deep as I've had anywhere, dressed exactly as I liked with great personal attention. A pumpkin spice latte, that most scoffed at of fall drinks, had all the goodness of handcrafting.Come get some!
