Love this little spot. Whenever I need coffee on my work from home days I go right to this place. For such a small place, they have an extensive and wide food menu and everything I've had from them thus far was fantastic. What I really like most about this place is their community events that they host. I've walked by and have seen poetry nights, game nights, etc. and it's great to see a place that welcomes and gives back to the community.

Great place, chill vibe, friendly staff and excellent coffee! They make some good lattes here, so far I'm addicted to the coffee butter latte. I've also tried their strawberry cheese cake milkshake and it was delicious!

For a cafe shop in the heart of a gentrification neighborhood, it leaves lots on the table. The coffee was mid, nothing to rave about or special quality to leave a memory. The service was good, attentive and friendly staff. But where it lost me was the venue itself — lack of cleanliness and old dirty furniture all around. A nice decor touch up and this spot would popping (imo).
