Recently found out about this place and I've been back a few times since. It's kinda a hidden gem. Small parking lot but trust me it's worth the awkward parking! Fresh coffee and baked goods. Great atmosphere

Busy, cheerful coffee shop with excellent coffee and a nice selection of bites.

Parking: There are spots in the alley behind the shop. Front spots are usually full.

Wheelchair accessibility: Very clearly marked parking and ramps

This place is run by a power couple who seem to have unlocked some secret level of talent—like, they’re probably good at everything from brewing coffee to juggling chainsaws. Their coffee is so good it might just make you question all your previous life choices. They’ve got this fancy pour steady machine that makes you feel like your drink is being crafted by a caffeinated wizard.

I highly recommend the gluten-free oatmeal cream pie. If gluten isn’t your nemesis, the blueberry cream cheese danish is the way to go. But if you’re one of those folks who get into a brawl with a loaf of bread, steer clear of the danish and stick with the gluten-free option unless you’ve come prepared with a solid exit strategy in case of emergency.

I know some people think matcha tastes like green beans in a cup. But if you’re one of the enlightened souls who enjoy it, choose self love and try the lavender or coconut matcha. It’s like sipping on a fancy, floral dream—or a tropical vacation in a mug… shooot! Try a blend of both!

The shop’s decor is pretty neutral, so if you’re hunting for unique Instagram shots, this isn’t exactly the place to make your followers jealous. BUT if you’re just looking for a serene spot to dive into some remote work, this place is a sanctuary. Just be warned, seating can be as hard to find as the last piece of a puzzle, but if you snag a table, it’s totally worth it.

And a little tip for my fellow thirty-somethings: if you woke up on your 30th birthday with a mysterious backache (like I did), skip the wooden benches unless you want to feel like you’re sitting on a medieval torture device. Head straight for the soft seating by the garage door or one of those cushy chairs—you’ll thank me later!
