Cuban coffee is amazing!!!
Picked this coffee shop because it opened earlier than others in the area on a weekday - 6:30AM! I loved the cortadito I ordered, as well as the Pokémon merch. The owner was very pleasant to chat with as well.
In town for the Midwest All stars swimming championships and found Roman. I had the Cuban cortadio and the as amazing. I hope we are back again next for the competition and we will sop by each day.
This place has QUALITY coffee from baristas who know their stuff. I’ve tried all the spots in downtown and this place is the best.
This cafe is fantastic! The manager is incredibly friendly, and the service is excellent. Every menu item I’ve tried has been fresh, flavorful, and beautifully made. The cozy atmosphere makes it the perfect spot to relax. Highly recommend!
This place is the spot! Get the Cubano coffee. 10/10
