After years of going here I can no longer support this business. I have been spoken to rudely *twice* by the barista for simply waiting by the door to get into the café after their posted opening hours. Some of the servers are nice, but this woman has a nasty attitude. I won’t be spending another dollar here.

Food: Wakey Wakey breakfast sammich was good. Not unique but fresh. Made to order.
Service: Friendly.
Atmosphere: I like this neighborhood spot. The garage door is always nice for the indoor/outdoor feel during the summer.
This is my second visit. If I was going to stay and work, I really wish they had some comfy seating.

The service here is always atrocious and unwelcoming. It's as if you're bothering the lady who works the coffee bar. She makes it challenging to support this small business. Either she's too busy, they are out of stock on something, or she's upset that she has to go to the back to retrieve it. Today, I visited and asked her to wipe down a table where I could sit and work. She basically waved me off and said, "Wait," as she continued to clean and change the trash behind the bar. After 10 minutes of standing and watching her, I left to go to Starbucks! Very nasty, very unwelcoming. This attitude has been constant for the 5 years that I've lived in the area, and today was the last day. I will NOT spend another dollar here. The owners need to address this!

I visit during the week in the AM. My favorite barista makes the best lattes. Try a specialty latte as a treat and many times they can make it year round. Great cafe to meet up with friends or get work donw.

The atmosphere and service is really good however the drink I ordered (hot chocolate) did not taste like much so I was pretty disappointed. My sister got a latte which tasted better so I feel the drinks were a hit or miss. I also got the pesto sandwich and that was pretty tasty but also very small.

The atmosphere and service were good, but the coffee and sandwich were some of the most underwhelming and disappointing I have ever had unfortunately. I hate to say it but the coffee was just straight up bad…

Great interior design, but food was underwhelming for a lack of better words; I order the vegetarian breakfast sandwich with a lavender cardamon iced coffee. Terrible quality sandwich way too salty bread tasted like cardboard and coffee tasted burnt no flavor whatsoever. Extremely disappointed

Awesome place to hangout drink some good coffee and the food is great!
Delicious tacos! The cook demonstrates great customer service and has a good energy. The place could be cleaner though. Menues, tables, and chairs looked and felt gritty. Customer service to whoever was upfront was poor. Didn't seem interested. Gave off bored energy. No smile. So, 3.5 stars out of 5.
