Charming neighborhood coffee shop with a dedicated quiet area for studying. The coffee is excellent, and the baked goods are spot on. Will definitely be returning!

The lavender sunrise latte is so good! Not too sweet at all. All of the employees are super friendly and helpful. Overall, it has a very relaxed vibe. Would definitely recommend!

Always love starting out my morning here with a warm croissant and matcha. Never misses to welcome my morning vibrantly. Love, love, love ground up!

Loved this place! Great service and coffee/pastry reminded me of Greece. I’m so sad it took me so long to realize this spot existed. As someone that travels to Greece (almost) every summer this feels like home away from home. Thank you!

I love this place, very fast and convenient. Coffee is great and the atmosphere is cool. Evelyn and the rest of the staff are helpful and chill, sometimes funny. I’ll be sure to come back!

I came because it was highly recommended on Google Reviews, but I was disappointed. I like a good latte. Here, it tasted like the coffee was slightly burnt during the brewing process. The frothing was good. I asked if I could have my coffee in a mug, as I could see there were piles of mugs over the coffee machine, they said they didn’t have any! I like my coffee in a mug, not a paper cup; the taste is different. I don’t like it when establishments serve everything on plastic. It is so much waste that will end up in landfills.

Why close so late at 5pm? Why not 1 or 2pm?

I visited with 2 year old baby. We ordered 2 coffee for myself and my wife. And I’ve asked a water cup for my baby. And the lady who acted like a manager said I need to PAY for the water cup with very aggressive attitude and tone. We are asians and I can easily tell her attitude is different to other people. I felt very offended. I will never visit this place again

Great first time here! The girl at the counter helped make my decision for me when I was trying to decide between 2 items on their seasonal menu. I will have to go back and try the other one next week….I just found my new after church coffee stop.

Bathrooms are dirty, matcha latte barely has flavor. Music is way too loud in there to do any work.

One of the most efficient/quickest coffee shops ever. Also, neither a positive nor a negative, but I thought it was funny they had a DJ playing electronica on Saturday morning 😅
