Barista is super friendly but my coffee tastes like water and doesn’t have a hint of coffee flavor. I think some training is needed and everything would be fine.

The website has great looking drinks, but in reality they don't have drizzles or whip cream. The color of the drinks itself is also much lighter and the flavor is dilute. At least have realistic drinks on the website so customers don't look forward to trying the drinks.

My first visit and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I can speak to tea as well as a latte and a very good blueberry cheese danish. Service was excellent and atmosphere was chill and eclectic.Parking: Parking can be limited, but if they are really busy, its adequate.

I had a wonderful experience. I felt extremely welcomed, I could tell they were genuine with serving us. The London fog and cinnamon roll were exquisite! It will definitely be our Sunday stop! The staff of Sunday were amazing and friendly! ❤️Dietary restrictions: You can get almond milk substitute which was pleasant.Kid-friendliness: As long as they behave and don’t disturb others. Your child should be fine.

Lots of nooks and crannies with a variety of seating options, books, games and place to read, study or people-watch. A great coffee shop!

I drove past here earlier in the day, and decided to stop in on my way back home. I ordeeed a chai latte with whole milk, which was really good and fit the mood of the day (a blustery overcast January sunday). And the latte stayed warm all the way home and on my walk with my dog, too.I also bought 2 m&m cookies, too. Tasty and filling. I was planning on eating both right then, but I saved one for later.Service was prompt and kind. I am glad they didn't give me a plastic bag! I am trying to get away from using them.The atmosphere was quiet and a bit dim (lighting wise, not vibe wise). But that might be because my eyes didn' adjust from outside. (It was also getting towards dusk). I was only there for a few minutes. I might stop in to read there in the future. Will definitely be back. Might make it my regular coffee stop after Jerusalem Bakery.

Nice cozy little spot. I get black coffee but really enjoyed it. Better than big chain type shops and service was quick and good.

This place is a joke. Ordered two cinnamon rolls that were very cold and old. Both were hard as a rock. Coffee was subpar. Don't waste your money here.

I ordered a hot black medium roast coffeeThen once I left the shop I realized I got a latte. It’s just know what I ordered, I told him that I had never been there and asked if they did what I ordered and confirmed it, I just feel I should’ve gotten what I ordered especially since there was only one customer in the building, so there was no rush.

So happy I stumbled across this awesome little shop as I am always in search of a great cup of tea. The barista was a sweetheart and the tea made my day!

Finally got a chance to pop in, the parking, interior, and service are all up to par. The barista was great and knowledgeable and patientI ordered the egg and cheese English muffin, it wasn’t what I expected. Didn’t really enjoy it, maybe it’s the type of cheese that they used but I’ll have to try something else next time. Got the Shot in the dark coffee and it was great.I’ll have to try more of their pastries next time.

This place is a gem. It is immediately across from KSU, which may be either a draw or a negative, depending upon how you feel about a coffee shop primarily inhabited by students. However, I love the local feel, and the roomy spaces, which were clearly designed to facilitate study groups. However, as a non-student who is a little older, I still really enjoyed this for what it is - a non-chain coffee shop with its own personality.The coffee options are more staid than some shops - no pour overs here. But you can get a good French press, any common style of latte and the like, along with a selection of baked goods that appeared to have been, well, baked somewhere other than a large commercial bakery.There is also a record player in the primary room, with a selection of recognizable albums, but I imagined that you could bring your own vibe to the room as long as you asked!

I found this place accidentally when I was nearby for my daughters dance rehearsals. The atmosphere was great and very chill. I had one of the best cinnamon rolls that I have ever had. Even the herbal tea was delicious (I really wanted coffee but didn't want to be up all night). I will definitely come back if I am in the area!
