A great place to relax and try out their changing baked goods and delicious meals! They’ve got scones, muffins, croissant sandwiches (warmed if you ask), bagels, energy bars, and a constantly rotating lunch menu. Their tea blends are also specially made and really great to try! It’s also a good place to study if you’re a student :)Plus, the owners are really kind and wonderful people. I’ve been going there since they opened a couple years ago and it’s a very welcoming place to spend some time.Dietary restrictions: You can ask for dairy free alternatives

The owner is super caring and friendly, plus, her outfits are always on point. As a student, you cant beat a $1.50 iced coffee! I go every day.
