Went here out curiosity, once you open the door the aroma of coffee take over your sense of smell. The smell is powerful and and delicious. The restaurant has plenty of coffee flavor, it has assorted of bread and ham and breakfast options . The restaurant also has lunch option toasts and biscuit and variety of sandwiches. The restaurant is located in the beautiful mosaic district which is easy to access for entrance points. The parking is free but I recommend to go early and weekday to avoid the weekend crowd in the plaza. Food can range from $12-15 depending in what you order.

We had a cappuccino with vegetable milk and some pastries, huge size! We also tasted the Argentina's alfajor. Quite a delicacy. Great music and great attention.

This place needs to update their app. There were a couple of items they stopped selling a while ago, though it said I could order in the app. Food and coffees were okay.

The staff was very kind to my little boy, even in the midst of a HUGE rush they were patient listened to him order. The shop is great even though it is small they managed to place the indoor seating just right so that the ordering line doesn't interfere. We love the locations outdoor seating along with the turf/grass my kiddos love being able to sit outside and enjoy the area. My family always makes the effort to stop by and enjoy their coffee.

This guy named max that was working Friday night literally kicked me out while in line didn’t even let me place my order just told me to get out because I had my little shih tzu with me she’s a very friendly dog and she is a dog service at the door it said dog service dogs allowed I had been to this coffe shop multiple times before with my dog. This guy was very rude didn’t even ask nicely to step out with my dog. I felt discriminated and belittled. Horrible customer service..

I really like this coffee shop but the seating in here is terrible. There are never any open tables and they’re taken up by people working on their laptops for hours. Staff should have a time limit on the seating.

Quite expensive given the underwhelming coffee. Besides, I don't appreciate that they cornered the market with the same company operating both coffee shops across from each other reducing the free market competition.

It’s a pretty place that has unfortunately gone downhill. I came here to take two orders, and the cashier who took our order basically got angry at me after I asked if they had a chocolate soft serve, and she just said, “No, we only sell vanilla!” That was just flat-out rude. Coffee is fairly decent, but it’s interesting to see that milk is just sitting out in the corner. At least the coffee is decent though.
Solid cappuccino l, one the best in metro area. The experience could have been even if they had ceramic cups for dine in order rather than just paper cups.

Good food, wonky weekend service.Some inconsistency with the Google Maps menu items. It also indicated curbside at one point, which they apparently don’t have. There is a space for comments on the ordering page that is not always read. Lastly, it can be a little slow in the morning depending on who is working, so plan accordingly during the week.

The lattes were a great calm drink. It was not at all trying to be too much and it wasn't too neutral. I got a Vanilla Latte and the other drink is a Matcha Latte. Decent desserts and great taste. I'll try it again some time soon. A side note, I absolutely love the actual convenient sustainability in their products, and other business should follow suit.

On a freezing Tuesday, we decided on a whim to stop by Mom & Pop Coffee Shop - not to warm up with coffee or tea, but to get some soft serve! And there it was, a large swirl of hazelnut and vanilla, in a huge cup. We walked back through Mosaic savoring every bite of smooth, silky ice-cream-gelatto-soft-serve. Call it what you want, it was delicious! The flavors were mild but distinct and not too sweet. It went down easy and we *almost* went back for a second helping. 'Til next time - if you're at Mosaic, drop in to the Mom & Pop Coffee Shop and try the soft serve. It's amazing!
