Went in because I heard the hot chocolate was good, and was not disappointed. Very good hot chocolate, made in-house (not a store-bought mix) and got marshmallows on top. Delicious

This place is such a gem! We stopped in for some vegan treats and it did not disappoint.Our barista was the sweetest and he made us feel so invited.Watch out for the vegan oatmeal cookie, it’s hard to stop at just one!!

This place is so cozy and welcoming! Definitely try the smoothies, chakra tea, or desserts!! The co-owner Kirsten is so joyful and authentic every time I come to visit. Such a great place to go while in Hampden.

This place has tons of potential as a spot to get a vegan lunch, a juice, or a coffee drink, but right now the space seems confused. Energy crystals inside cake domes. I stopped in for a latte. I think the person making it was relatively new and was being coached on how to do it. They didn't have oat milk so I took almond milk. It was really quite terrible. Perhaps it was a weird brand of milk, but there was no coffee taste at all. It tasted like cup and hot almond milk. Probably the best explanation is that the person did not know how to pull an espresso. I prefer not to give negative ratings but I hope that the owners can pull this place together. Needs a reorganization: clear out the junk or find better ways to display it, make the menus prominent, clear, and current, train new employees how to prepare drinks, etc., and taste everything they make during that training to ensure it's correct.

The owner, Kirsten Lapointe, is a fantastic cook - she whips up amazing soups and gorgeous cupcakes. AND everything is vegan and gluten free. I never knew vegan/ gluten free could be so good ?.

I LOVE this place. I live an hour away and whenever I am in the area I stop in for a juice and am always surprised and impressed with how delicious they are - in addition to all of the health benefits. I always find unique and unusual gifts for myself and others. The energy is fantastic. Every time I go I wish I lived closer!

The service was great, but the Chai latte and cookie we had were pretty darn awful. First, the spiced chai latte was under spiced and the added hemp was overwhelming. Was not creamy either as one would expect. Moreover, the "floral" cookie we had just tasted like a bad sugar cookie. There were no floral undertones and it was way too sweet. Hope we just caught them on a bad day. It was gross though ?.

Yes, the service was good, the place is nice, and everything is vegan and gluten free. But the cupcakes tasted quite bad and the coffee was even worse. Also, they don't let you just order one cupcake, you have to get multiple.
Love this darling spot in Hamden! You can find so many hidden gems and delicious bites! I love the hemp mocha , ALL of the juices, and her gift shop is great! I found the most delicious raw honey comb which my 7 year old son had me searching for. He was so excited ? Wonderful customer service and they host really cool events. Love coming here!!

OK can I say amazing atmosphere you walk inside and you’re greeted with a smile and amazing energy. There’s so many adorable knickknacks and unexpected trinkets all over the place and the food I can’t say enough about it. Please stop by and try out their soup specials healthy servings and scrumptious flavors. If you’re looking for a vegan go to spot. This is the place I highly recommend.

Turmeric Sunrise: Turmeric, Banana, Pineapple, Cinnamon, and Macadamia Nut Milk. * Zero flavor * No sweetness * The most bland smoothie I have ever had. * This will NEVER be repeated again.
