Great cozy spot! Everyone is nice and my daughter loves the ice cream 🍦
Best place to get fresh brewed coffee in Milford.the staff here is incredible, most of the staff knows exactly what I order and I only drop in about once a week. it is a cozy establishment. only problem is just like the rest of main St, it's hard to get a parking spot close by. I would recommend this place to anyone who loves coffee. they also have a wide variety of sweet treats, Sammie's and ice cream.
So I had been hearing about all the “specialty” lattes and teas they make and I decided to stop in. A bit pricey at $7.10 for a 16 oz latte that’s on their menu yet they add an additional cost for one of the ingredients. Well it got even pricier considering after the froth dies, which takes just long enough to walk to the car, the 16 oz cup is now reduced to @12 oz of actual beverage. To say I’m not impressed would be an understatement.
