Customer Reviews
Delightful! Tucked away in a discreet corner of the HMart shopping complex, this cafe has plenty of cozy seating (more than initially meets the eye) and tasty options for for drinks and sweet treats. We enjoyed the freshly made tayaki and green tea. Staff were friendly and the cafe was sunny and quiet. A pleasant little place that exceeded our expectations. Worth a visit!
Came in today and was treated very poorly by the owner. I had already ordered a green tea, but she came over and made rude, condescending comments about only one of us ordering while we were studying. A few minutes later, instead of speaking to us herself, she made an employee come over and say, “she’s making me tell you to order again.” The employee was actually very kind, and it was obvious she was uncomfortable being put in that position. The owner also complained about us having outside food when all we had were a few crackers from the hospital. The entire interaction felt hostile and unwelcoming for no reason. There are ways to enforce café policies without being disrespectful. This wasn’t one of them. I won’t be coming back
My husband and I occasionally came here after eating at Dubu, but unfortunately our last visit will be our final one. We were accidentally double-charged for a drink, and when we asked about it, the owner seemed upset with us for her mistake. Later, while I finished my coffee, my husband asked to use the restroom and was told he should have bought a drink and paid for the seat he was using—despite the café being completely empty (I’ve added a photo to show this). When I asked if this was her policy and if she had any signage that we missed, she became very rude. I understand this rule in a busy café, but my husband was full from lunch and didn’t want anything. I truly hate writing negative reviews about small businesses, but this experience felt unwelcoming and unprofessional.
Used to be an amazing spot, but they changed their menu and ownership. They got rid of the best things they used to offer, and their coffee sucked for $8. What used to be a busy spot, always with people hanging out, is now dead. Honestly was disappointed. After seeing other people’s reviews, it’s obvious this place fell off since it changed ownership. All of the newer reviews left are bad ones, the good ones were back with the old owners. The new owner will for sure go out of business running it the way they are. Such a shame, I used to love this place and come whenever I was in the area. I still can’t get over how bad this coffee is for $8…. Go somewhere else.
The strawberry milk ice was generous in portion and tasted really good! But I was honestly speechless that the store didn’t have the air conditioning on — especially when it was 97°F outside! It was unbearably hot inside. Also, the staff didn’t seem very friendly or welcoming.
