Everything here is smooth, rich, and never bitter. The Moon Milk takes every drink to another level. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, love the interior decor, and overall perfect whether you’re grabbing a quick cup in the drive thru or hanging out for a while. Friendly staff, consistent quality, and coffee that actually feels crafted. If you’re a true coffee lover, this place is a MUST.“

“First time at the Conscious Cup with my sister on Mother's Day. Upon entering, welcomed by the best barista ever Uriel who immediately made us feel supported in our beverage decisions. He inquisitively asked some warm, conversational questions and directed us toward the best choice for our preferences and moods for the day. My sister has also noted (prior to learning his name this day) that she had actually stopped coming for a time as she was not enjoying her drinks until one day Uriel made hers and now she is pleased every time she stops in and he's working. Please consider giving Uriel some gold stars, having him train other employees, and a pay raise because he deserves it and we will definitely be back.“

I didn’t catch her name, but she had pretty blue/teal hair. I must say, my shaken espresso was PERFECT! Her ratios were spot on, other locations have made it too milky, she absolutely nailed it. She definitely put me in a good mood for the rest of the day. And once again, the drink was D E L I C I O U S!!! Thank you for the good service and splendid drink!“
