The line was out the door when I arrived around 10 AM on a Saturday, but it moved quickly. I had come for one of their seasonal specials, but unfortunately, it was no longer available. It seems like their seasonal offerings change monthly, and they only serve what’s currently on the menu.
They have a self-serve water station and a designated spot to return your cup, utensils, and plate after you're done. The place was pretty crowded, so I left shortly after picking up my drink.
I ended up getting the Mango Sticky Rice Matcha ($8) with oat milk (+$1). It’s a sweet mango purée blended into a matcha latte, topped with housemade vegan sweetened condensed milk. Definitely on the pricier side, but also one of the best matchas I’ve had in Austin. I was pleasantly surprised by how well they translated the classic Thai dessert into a drink form without any rice bits or heaviness. The sweetness was just right and let all the different flavors shine through. Highly recommend!
Mango Sticky Rice Matcha ($8) + Earl Grey Oat Milk ($2) + 2ml CBD ($4): This was an expensive concoction my husband wanted to try, so he drank most of it. I didn't really taste the Earl Grey Oat Milk while he couldn't really taste the mango puree. We both tasted the CBD oil which needed to be constantly stirred or it will settle at the bottom (thanks for the tip barista!) Personally, I prefer the original version without all the add-ons — the extras felt a bit distracting. That said, it was still better than the Peach Blossom Arnold Palmer.
Peach Blossom Arnold Palmer ($6.25): A lemonade Arnold Palmer made with peach blossom white tea. The flavors were subtle but true to the description. You get a hint of tartness from the lemonade at the top, followed by a light, refreshing peach blossom tea. It was okay, but tasted more like a lightly flavored tea — not worth the price in my opinion. My husband wasn’t a fan either.

I had their special on Monday it was a cappuccino London fog- it was delightful and delicious. +++BUT Beware that parking garage+++ the validation is for 30 minutes and not one second longer! They will charge you for a full hour if you're in there for 31 minutes they do not prorate the time.

Cute little place that could only be better if it were a little bigger.

I usually enjoy the coffee and pastries from this place. They’re consistently great. However, the unwelcoming attitude I consistently receive from one of the baristas is enough to make me reconsider coming back. A friendly atmosphere is just as important as the quality of the food and drinks.

Lovely coffee shop in the heart of South Congress. Always make a stop here for a drink, hot or cold, when visiting the area.

We ordered our Thanksgiving holiday pies from here and they were amazing. They were ready exactly when they said and picking them up and check out was a breeze.

The matcha was really good! They don’t pre sweeten the powder so ask for sweetener if you like sweet matches. There were plugs for laptops and free WiFi. Plus a little courtyard area right on south congress.

The coffee wasn't amazing it was basic we got the ube latte and snickerdoodle cookie latte it was kind of weak in flavor. It wasn't distasteful but it wasn't great it was average coffee. The broccoli and cheese croissant was very good I would recommend.
Kid-friendliness: Not kid friendly
Wheelchair accessibility: No wheelchair accessible very tight inside and stairs in the front. The back is accessible for wheelchairs but again it will be tight to get in due to the same space.

Cortado is my drink of choice and they make a great one. Bonus points for the delicious pastry. Small shop doing good coffee.
