Empower Café isn’t just a place to grab a latte—it’s a place that means something. From the moment you walk in, you can feel the positive energy and the genuine care behind everything they do. The tribute to the owner’s mother adds such a personal, meaningful touch. It’s rare to find a café that serves up both a killer espresso and a reminder of what community really looks like.
The staff? Friendly, fast, and always up for a chat. The food? Fresh, flavorful, and made with intention. The atmosphere? Bright, clean, and perfect for working, relaxing, or catching up with a friend.
Empower is the kind of place that reminds you why small businesses matter. Thoughtful. Uplifting. Real. Skip the chains—this is where your coffee dollars should go.

Giving two Stars instead of one only because the employees are friendly. This place uses Herbalife ingredients which is a MLM/pyramid scheme. Also this place is not healthy at all, all sorts of artificial flavoring and colors. Real fruit and juice ingredients are not Even used

Herbalife scam. None of this is anywhere close to freshly made or nutritious, it is a notoriously bad product.

Quite bad. The "tea" is like a worse version of a canned energy drink

My new spot for protein shake after the gym. So many different flavors, consistently great taste, and fair prices! The staff is great too. I Highly recommend checking Empower out!
