Ordered 2 different seasonal lattes and neither lattes had any of the toppings in the description. Both were just watered down lattes with whipped cream $14. Would have appreciated being told if maybe you ran out of something versus just serving whatever, but it seemed intentional both drinks were made without anything in the description.

I am a barista and from my personal experience, I do not recommend this place, do not spend your time or money, $8.50 for a watermelon lemonade is completely out of line, it is not organic watermelon, I ordered a mocha and they gave me a latte and the taste of the latte was disgusting their coffee is not good quality, lousy service and experience.

We came for the sandwiches only to find out they don’t have the same menu anymore.
It’s still good and the staff is super friendly and helpful, but the sandwich selection was super limited. Only 1 breakfast option and no more fried chicken, merguez, pork belly or any of the fun menu options. So bummed to learn about this menu change.

I stopped by on a beautiful weekend. I ordered the Pumpkin Pie Latte and then walked over to the park. A very cute spot.

The cafe is eclectic, comfy and has a lot of seating and a lot of seasonal drinks options. It is not dog-friendly, despite Google saying otherwise. I brought a dog and we weren’t allowed inside. The service wasn’t the best. Staff said they’d bring us a menu and we waited 10m before going up to the window and ordering and had to go back to collect our food even though it was three, maybe five steps for them to bring it to us at our table and no one was ordering. The guy was just on his phone and chatting to his coworker. The food was delicious. I had a muffin and the girl next to us raved about her egg (something?) sandwich – it looked great. The food probably makes up for the poor service but just bear that in mind if you visit.

Impeccable vibes, delicious coffee and flavorful food! Generous servings and super friendly staff. They often have fun seasonal drinks. Plant-based food options. Can’t say enough great things about this cafe and hope they stick around for many years to come! ❤️
