Romantic and endearing. Their 2nd floor is a small loft that’s a pirate ship -esque nook. It is a 2012 era designed place, think Foster the People and galaxy print shirts

Stopped in the other day to warm up a little while shopping in the area with my partner and had a lovely baklava latte in the little loft area. Coffee was bold, rich, and delicious, and you could definitely pick up on the nuts and honey taste they were going for with the baklava flavor! Hypnotically creamy foam head on the latte that dazzled both my partner and I. The interior design and vibe is intimate and vintage cozy, with some lovely vintage impressionist maritime themed paintings on shiplap panels on the wall. The only caveat I will say is that the benches in the loft seating area badly need a reupholster and those lovely paintings ought to be restored a little and given a better layer of protective coating so that they can be the statement pieces they deserve to be. It's sad to see such lovely pieces scuffed in spots and chipping without any kind of protective glaze!

Disgusting food and drinks. Disgusting walls and seating. Disgusting $7.08 hot matcha made with water (it was sour?) ruined my day. Just disgusting. Why?
Big fan of the oatmeal. I don't really enjoy oatmeal from many places but this one I really enjoyed.

I got charged $1 extra for asking for less ice in my ice latte. It is not that they gave me more coffee to fill up the cup for the dollar. I asked the barista if I heard correctly and that I didn’t want more coffee but I was told a second time that it is their policy to charge more for less ice. I got charged for a swipe of hand to diminish the ice they gave. I was with friends and I cared to keep up good vibes, but I would have had a different exchange here had I been alone.

Regardless of location $9 for a non-dairy no add-on iced latte is a bit wild. It’s $5.75 for no flavor add ons +1 for non dairy milk and +$2 for light ice?? That’s a scam. Regardless of how good the coffee no thanks
