I’m not gonna lie this place is become like a therapy spot for me after a particularly grueling week at my job. I love to come in and order a green tea latte and maybe a pistachio muffin and just catch up on my scheduling, or call somebody. The workers are always so incredibly nice, there’s one person who always remembers my name, which is so sweet. They genuinely care about their customers, which is what makes this place stand out.

It’s also like a very diverse and inclusive environment with a trendy city vibe, and you’ll have literally everybody from every walk of life there. Like one day, I sat down into my left was a lady giving a palm reading, and to my right was two people having a Bible study, and by the bar was a group of Somali teenagers giggling about something, and in the corner was a businessman, making phone calls!!! And because of it’s location, there’s always somebody working in education chilling there too, which is really cool. It’s always an interesting and cool spot to be.

The food is also really great and worth the price and I again adore the Green tea latte. They’re worth it!!!

Good vibe.. Wish we could give half stars, because this is a solid 4.5 stars. Overheard some interesting conversations. Solid selection of eats and drinks.

Tried it out, liked it. Feels like it has a solid atmosphere, nice place to go. Got a drink too sugary for my tastes but that's what happens when you try something new! Will come again.

A tasty vegan sandwich option but rather small and crowded and not someplace I'd like to return to.

Vegetarian options: Only one vegan option and you have to be careful about which bread you choose.

Dietary restrictions: I would avoid.

Took my glass was not informed of the closing went to use the facilities before my departure to find a locked door.
Frequent this neighborhood often. Rude service will not be retiring.

This is a neighborhood gathering place, whether by myself or with someone I am always in good company.

My daughter and I really enjoyed having a coffee shop to go to in the evening, so love that you are open later. She and I both enjoyed our hot drinks! Very nice service and the clientele was upbeat as well.

The food was good and the portion sizes were mostly reasonable for the price BUT had to dock a couple stars on this because they added a 21% tip onto my order without notifying me. There were only 2 people in my group and we ordered at the counter. There was no visible signage anywhere in the restaurant that they would do this. I’m all for getting rid of tipping culture and adding the tip into the list price of the entree so that employees get fair wages but I am NOT for false advertising. I was really confused until I requested my receipt to review my purchases and I was so frustrated that it ruined the first half of my meal.

I have gone here since I was young and it has been by far my favorite coffee shop. The staff is friendly and the food is always delicious. I recommend their chai lattes, they are the best around. 10/10 would recommend to anybody!
