Customer Reviews
Love this place so much! So happy I found a cozy coffee shop close to home after moving back to the area. All the staff are super friendly, welcoming, and kind! Coffee is amazing every time you can tell it’s made with love. The barista Bree is the bomb, she always makes me and my friends feel welcome and goes out of her way to make sure we have everything we need! Love this shop please stop by, you won’t regret it!
Funky and low key. If you prefer the chain type coffee shop you may not enjoy it, but if you are looking for super friendly, BOHO style joint this is the place. Lots of vegan options and great coffee. It's small, kitchy and laid back. The regulars that stopped in while we were there were interesting and because the shop is small we could here all of the conversations. We loved the funky feel vibe.
I dont frequently write bad reviews but this was honestly the worst meal I've ever had served to me. The "deconstructed breakfast" was inedible. The eggs were so hard and overcooked it had to be cut with a knife (ordered over easy- to which the employee said he could do). Looks like the eggs were cooked in a microwave? The bacon was about 2 degrees past raw. Toast was cold. It took over 30 minutes and $43 to get a meal that we couldn't even eat. There were three orders ahead of us and the staff seemed very overwhelmed with that many orders. The coffee was fine and bagels were fine but it didn't make up for the disgusting eggs and bacon. I'm honestly unsure how the employee could have looked at the plate and thought it was okay to be served to a customer.
This is simply the best place in town, and everyone else knows it. We were excited to try the food here and it was definitely what we expected. Walking in you you can expect to see some very interesting decorations. On each table there are live plants and many wall hangings that hold your attention as you enjoy a great cup of coffee. We had the best experience with the staff as we wanted to literally try everything. I appreciated them allowing me to order breakfast so we could enjoy that as well as a few lunch items to go so I could get the full experience. After a bagel sandwich we devoured I also had the pleasure of eating their loaded egg salad sandwich. Both of which are highly recommended. The next item on our list was a 16" turkey club sub that was fully loaded and all of which were
I ordered the coconut mocha latte with oat milk, and it was to die for! Perfectly smooth, rich, and not too sweet — truly one of the best lattes I’ve ever had. The staff were so efficient and pleasant, and the service felt effortless even during the morning rush. The café itself is beautiful with such warm, inviting décor. You can tell they put thought into every detail — from the drinks to the atmosphere. Can’t wait to come back!
