I love the coffee here and it's atmosphere. The staff are friendly and enjoy their job
The fact that this helps people with mental disabilities a chance to make money and interact with the community is worth it alone.

I wanted to try a local coffee shop one Saturday afternoon. The place seemed really cool at first. You could tell the AC was out. I walked up to the counter and it took nearly 5 minutes to even be acknowledged. The Barista was SUPER rude and dismissive the entire time. Never was friendly, nor said a friendly word. Just told me the price of my drink. After I swiped my card, they completely ignored and turned their back to me. It seemed suspicious that you wouldn't want the customer to complete the transaction and leave a tip. They finally turned the screen around so I could leave a tip and then turned away. The worst coffee shop experience. I don't even know why I left a tip.

Really cool place, reminds me of places I hung out at in the East Village of NYC. First time here and was excited to have found this place, but the barista (only one working behind bar) killed my joy by being one of the rudest and pompous individuals I’ve ever encountered in a service industry position. Started when I asked a basic question, “how long have you been open?” He responded by saying “I have no idea, I don’t care about things like that.” He then stared at me for a few seconds and I had to ask if I can order something. No thank you or nothing,, he then turned the Point of sale screen around for me to tip and walked away. To the Owners, is this person your son or nephew? Even if they are, fire him. You could make more money with friendlier staff, or send me a private message and sell this place to me so I can staff it the right way

Relaxed shop with stupendous dark roast espresso. They have a large number of signature latte flavors, but their regular cappuccino is fantastic on its own.
A great place to grab a coffee, catch up with friends, or get a little work done.

Calm and cozy coffee shop. Great coffee! There’s always only one person at the counter who also makes the coffee so it can get a bit slow if it’s crowded but otherwise they’re always super fast and sweet!
This is the red eye and iced coffee with a lil regular milk.

This place was nasty, and after waiting forever I just left which made the entitled people around me mad.

Being a self proclaimed coffee snob from CT everytime I travel I have to try the local coffee shop. I loved it here the second I pulled up the exterior vibes alone I loved. The inside atmosphere was extremly relaxing and chill. On top of the delicious coffee I inhaled the cinnamon bun I got. ???

Staff are just amazing, personable, sociable. But the oddest thing. It actually sounded like "occasional coffee slurping" noises playing in the background of today's jazz music. Whatever it was, it was quite irritating for me persobally. #endyprobs

Use to come here all the time, and was great! past few times I got an ice coffee, I might as well have ordered a cup a milk….. basically all it was.
This is one of the best cups of coffee I’ve had. Eclectic little place that I highly recommend.
