Overrated, pork bun was $6 and tasted like absolute garbage. It was sour and did not taste like an authentic Chinese pork bun. Go back to the kitchen and fix your recipe.

Very peaceful with nooks and crannies to get work done or a large table and a sofa area if you’re in a bigger group. The coffee is fantastic but the place can be a bit short-staffed.
Vegetarian options: At least one vegan bun clearly labeled

Coffee good and pleasant, helpful staff, but cleanliness of tables and restroom not great. Did not look they had been cleaned recently.

Cozy, charming spot. Hot drinks are good and it's a welcoming place to bring your laptop or a book and chill for a while. Usually quiet, with students hanging out. Sometimes playing a game.Only complaints: it can feel a little too dark if you come in the evening, some buns are a little dry, and occasionally a furry visitor appears in the cafe (which is fine, it happens)

A hidden gem right in the heart of Towson. Come here if you like delicious sweet and savory buns, a casual atmosphere and fantastic coffee!

Very nice, comfortable, and quiet. The tea was lovely and the barista was friendly. This was my first visit after a hiatus of a couple of years because it used to be loud with music playing and it was difficult to get any work done so I am glad I gave it a second chance because it was quite lovely.

the atmosphere is very nice. quiet, cozy, easy to focus and get stuff done.the food was less good. i got a spicy mocha that was too spicy to drink, and my spice tolerance is decent. the barista did adjust it with milk when I told her though, which was nice.I got a char siu bun that honestly tasted like alcohol. idk if it was that the dough was over fermented or if there was wine in the meat sauce, but it tasted more like booze than bbq. it was also like 80% bread and 20% filling.idk if I just got unlucky but I wouldn't necessarily recommend ordering those things, and I'd definitely say you should ask about the stuff before buying it.

There is always a guy with a big scary loud dog I wouldn't come with kids. Also when I was here there was a super loud noise coming from the kitchen and the staff didn't seem to care. I eventually left because of the noise.
