Not really one for reviews, but this coffee shop has become my go to for how reliably good the sandwiches and coffee are (and at a reasonable price).I’ve always had good experiences with the baristas working and find their demeanor quite friendly.10/10 would recommend to all

Not sure if they were just having a bad day or if it was motivated by appearance, but I was met with silence when I entered and the baristas had a cold demeanor.Maybe only come here if you’re blonde and caucasian ? ironic attitude to have given that this cafe is in the HeightsOnly plus was coffee was decently priced

What a cute and cozy little gem in The Heights! I was born and raised in The Heights and wish I had a spot like this to go to in high school. My husband and I stumbled across this place in a rainy day, and the vibes were perfect. The coffee was amazing, there's a good amount of seating, and some cute trinkets and candles for purchase. I ordered the turkey and apple press for lunch and it was fantastic. Delicious and filling. The ladies working behind the counter were also very warm and were patient with me as I decided what to order from their delicious menu options.

The ambience was good. And coffee was okay. Their cups are too thin do very hot to touch even with the sleeve on. The funniest thing was that they charge you $1.50 for adding meat to your sandwich but $2 to add half an avocado, a fruit that costs only 89c in retail today for the whole fruit. Their rationale was that avocado is more expensive. Lol. They don't even have plates for serving. They make you eat in to go wraps and containersVegetarian options: They had one item that was vegetarian.

It's a super cute cafe. Too bad, it's clear if you are unwanted, right away. I've only ever gotten good service when my hair was straight and blonde. Otherwise, I tend to order a quick breakfast for pickup when I am just home chilling and the reception is just UNCOMFORTABLE. I don't need a round of applause when I go into a space, but I just want equal or neutral treatment.The first order the food was delicious, now regularly, when I order breakfast sandwiches there are shells in the eggs. As a coffee snob, admittedly, the coffee is amazing, so I kept going. But yesterday not only did it have a weird slimy consistency, now I am having gastro issues. I never post comments and did not want to do this, but the pain in my stomach since I ate and drank half my coffee is miserable.
