Need to stalk their schedule to see which buns come out. No point going right at opening. They only have one oven so only 1-2 pastries will be available Egg tart was pretty good as was the garlic bread. The hot chocolate was powdery

Love the staff and such a great selection of drink options!! Such a wonderful location, the pastries always taste and look so good. Sun soaked and chill area. Great place to get some afternoon work done.

Pros: - Tasty latte, beans by Counterculture - Friendly barista - Good seating options - Excellent playlist (if you like dark wave/synth, Depeche Mode, etc. :))
Cons: - Standard size for hot drinks is 12 oz, which I would consider too small for the price and location - Drinks came in plain white cups which looked quite cheapish - Nothing against unpretentious places but the overall appearance was definitely too filthy: sticky tables, lots of crumbles on the floor, windows not cleaned in a million years. I had planned to try their Taiwanese pastry but the overall condition of the place made me change my mind as the hygiene concerns outweighed my curiosity - Staff was at times a tad too engaged in private conversations, which included clearly audible parts about some of their (negative) experiences with customers. This made me feel a bit uncomfortable - gossiping, if considered appropriate at all, is not meant for customers’ ears…
All in all 3 to 3.5 stars, with quite some room for improvement.

I've walked past this place so many times and finally stopped in for a lavender hot chocolate that was wonderful! If I wasn't gluten free I would've gotten a sweet treat

Loved the storefront, so bright and inviting. The selection of treats, both savory and sweet, were amazing! It was so hard to decide what to get. Everything we tried was delightful. I would go here frequently if I lived locally.

This place is Taiwanese pastry heaven. Go in the morning when everything has been put out fresh. There's plenteous of options. The scallion bacon bun is bomb, I inhaled it and purchased two more to go.
Love the pastry here but service is poor and slow. Don’t go at opening, there is barely any pastry available
