From out of town and stayed across the street for the weekend. My boyfriend and I made sure to get a coffee every morning from Christian. The coffee is phenomenal and the service is even better. Very welcoming and chill atmosphere.

Such a cute coffee place! Easily available parking nearby. The coffee was really good and they have dairy alternatives. I also got a cheese danish that was pretty good. The place was very cute and the service was great too! 10/10

Loved this place. I chose to dine in. Behind me were ppl conducting an interview. Beside me were a group of women planning a trip and a few over looked like a family grabbing a bite. The employees were joking amongst each other. My drink was perfect. I was able to put my phone down and just enjoyed my drink and the good vibes. 10/10

Good vibes, kind people and a great cup of coffee. I was greeted by the barista when I walked in and he kindly accommodated my half-caf-half-sweet, etc order. He used my name throughout the transaction and made a delicious cup of coffee. I love finding places that have great service, caring people and the business and baritas are attentive to detail.

I'm an early bird, so when I arrived, it was quiet. I only purchased a tea, which quenched my thirst. I wasn't hungry and therefore unable to judge the food. I'm willing to try something the next time I'm there.

The coffee shop, I'm sure, is a vibe, but I'll need to come back later in the day when it's busy. For the most part, I enjoyed spending my morning there.

The chai was amazing and tasted home made. Nicest barista. Nice downtown vibes.

I was in town for business and decided to opt for a local coffee shop. Walked a few blocks off my route. The shop is nice and has character. Girl at the register was friendly. It was her first day. She stated the owner was on his way to help her out. This meant that actually no coffee other than the self serve was getting made until he showed up. Facts about the experience:

- Waited about 25 minutes even though no one was in front of me.
- Coffee was fine. They used the wrong milk for my order.
- Croissant I ordered wasn’t being heated in the time I was waiting and after I reminded them I ordered they offered to heat it up. At that point we were pushing on 30 minutes, so I opted to just take it cold. Was good buttery flavor, but dry.

Overall decent coffee. I think I caught them in the sweet spot of being on the struggle bus this morning. Will opt for something on the way to the office next time.
