After reading reviews I was excited to visit ….. but what an underwhelming experience - 20 minutes or more waiting for 1 cappuccino seemed excessive - looking at others waiting also , many with folded arms and unsmiling faces , would also suggest they were less than impressed also . Cappuccino was average and luke warm …. No need to revisit

Enjoy the vibe and multiple choices of food and beverages. It’s colder than I prefer. Im glad I can sit outside.

Very nice and cool cafe but probably ask about hours since they are usually close early. (40% based on my experience). Still recommend to try though. 👍

The outdoor patio is the highlight and super cozy and great to work at or chat at. Note that there are only two outlets outside.
The chilaquiles were good but the quesadillas were some of the worst I’ve ever had. Super greasy, cheese spilling out everywhere, and not crispy.
The coffee is also mediocre.
It’s really the outdoor booths that make this place special and worth visiting.
Let's think about this together - why heat up empanadas so much that you then have to wait 15 minutes for them to cool down??? Why? You don't need to finish culinary school. It's enough to make the pastries warm, not as hot as volcanic lava.

They got rid of the potato empanada, and now they don’t have any vegan grab and go options for proper food outside of pastries.
The nearest Starbucks recently shut down which I would’ve assumed was a good opportunity for the business to attract those customers, but there’s no point if I need to stop here for coffee and somewhere else for a quick bite. Will not be coming back, until they bring the potato empanadas back. will find a different coffee shop in the area.

Should have checked the real reviews before coming. Not worth the wait for the coffee and the rude response to other reviews, great how unprofessional.

Chicken empanadas with the Chimichurri sauce were delicious. The English breakfast tea was so good with a hint of fruity flavor.

Great coffee shop with an excellent vibe! I love going here especially for their craft coffees and delicious food! It's a great place for a meeting, to study or get work done.

I waited over 20 minutes for my coffee, and when I finally went up to ask about it, the barista said he had called my name a while ago and that the guy who took my order said he had already drunk one of my drinks. I did hear my name when my muffin was ready, but my drinks weren’t there at the time. Why not call my name again instead of drinking my order? It wasn’t even that busy, and I was sitting right next to the counter, so it should’ve been clear whose order it was.
To top it off, the coffee wasn’t even that good. I’ve had much better at other local spots. Definitely won’t be coming back.
The big blonde boy was quite hateful! Tell him to either get nicer or get a back of house job. I bet he's difficult to work with!

Coffee is great. I love that they really put effort into making latte art and your coffee to taste great. This is the coffee shop I invite my friends to catch up 😂
The only thing is that sometimes they forget my orders 👀

Bring back the strawberry in the parfait. It’s what set your parfait apart from others.

I love coming here! Everyone is so welcoming. Hunter is great! My favorite are the empanadas - sad they no longer have the potato empanadas 😢
