Great place to stop once a semester to get a quick drink or bite. Hadn't been here until a week or so ago, and the experience was alright. The prices were insane, personally, but the options were much more broad (in terms of tea, at least) compared to Cool Beans upstairs. If you want tea or a somewhat expensive sandwich, go here. If you want expensive coffee, head upstairs.

Been coming for years almost daily. I come for relaxing with a coffee, for the environment, for the food, to work on business for my clients and just as a refuge really. Just got the breakfast burrito and it is truly devine. Had to make a review, not sure why it's taken this long to do one.

The break options here are very light and refreshing. You get a variety of caffeine free drinks as well. I was surprised to find Hojicha green tea. It's a cozy cafe situated in the same building as Cool Beans.
