Drove by the area looking for a great refreshment and a quick pick-me-up, and stumbled upon this hidden gem! I ordered a lemonade matcha with chia-seeds refresher and added an extra energy shot. It was exactly what I needed. The perfect reset, refresh, and just the right amount of energy to keep me going. They also have a variety of coffee, appetizers, and other refreshers, which I can’t wait to try when I’m back in the area!

Found this coffee spot on a random trip but love love the coffee. Must admit, the coffee is strong even when its filled with ice. The hot drinks and cold drinks are worth it. The customer service is friendly and they're always pleasant. The only improvement I would have to say is the quality of their pastries. The breakfast items are a little pricey but their quality of coffee is worth it in addition to the location. Very little seating outside.

The Café con leche is absolutely amaizing. The coffee is amaizing, but the staff is the best part! Definitely one of the best coffee I've had in a long time & def coming back!
