I've visited this coffee shop several times recently. I'm happy every time I get coffee, tea or a pastry because of how good everything is! Plus, the girls working there are very nice and fun to talk to. You must try their espresso coffee. It's so yummy.

The Smokeshow breakfast sandwhich is worth taking the time to leave a review - it’s that good! Like every ingredient tastes great (everything roll, smoked bacon, eggs) individually to make the ultimate fresh and filling breakfast meal!! The person who helped me was super nice about informing me about the menu since it was my first time. Will definitely be back trying other things on the menu I was curious about.

I ordered a white chocolate mocha iced which is very delicious so thank you for that. But the breakfast bowl was a little disappointing for 13.99, it tasted like a Jimmy Dean breakfast bowl with sausage gravy on top.

Wide await coffee is literally the best coffee I have ever had. And i've had coffee at a multitude of places. this coffee is just different. almost out of this world. It's made with love.Customer service is fabulous , always served with a smile and laughter. everyone that works there is very attentive.And you can tell that this coffee stand is owned by someone who pours their heart and soul into it , definitely shows that it's loved for the establishment.And for its customers as well, I recommend that you try this coffee, even if you're not close by.It's worth the drive.

I haven’t had a bad coffee here. Everything has been so delicious and they’re so friendly. Location is great. They always have a snicky snack for my pup! All good things!
One minor feedback: is there a way to have a designated, reusable vessel to make the various size coffees in (perhaps one for each size to get the proportions right) to make coffee in for when people bring their own mug? As opposed to making it in a single use cup to pour it into the mug then throw away (I assume there’s a cleanliness or regulatory reason behind this, but it kind of defeats the purpose of bringing your own mug that way :/ ) thanks for considering!

There was no line. It was decorated sooo cute like Halloween. Girl working there was friendly, fast, competent. Also had great drink and food recommendations. The sunrise burrito is SO good. And whatever this cold foam salted maple drink I got is absolutely BOMB.COM. These days I’m used to regretting getting coffee out cuz the lines are so long and the service is so bad. This place is an exception. Love it. Definitely coming back :)

The brown sugar latte and breakfast burrito are SO GOOD! The baristas are happy to make adjustments so you can get exactly what you want.
Two things to note: there are 2 locations on Center Street, so if you’re ordering online make sure you choose the right one. And they don’t have any drip coffee options, so if drip is your vibe, this might not be your spot.
Overall, definitely a win.

Wide Awake is my usual go-to for a morning coffee fix. Their selection of food is perfect for a quick bite for breakfast or lunch, and the selection of drink customizations will never leave you out of options.

I've never been here before until today to try something new after a long morning. Coffee was good, but there were so many coffee grounds in my latte it was hard to finish. I still drank it, but I don't think many people like grounds left in their coffee like that. A few will happen, but like they poured an entire table spoon throughout the coffee, it is a bit ridiculous.
They make great coffee and sandwiches are bomb. I use the Joe app to order ahead and it's ready when I get there, nice to skip the line and go.
