Previously, I had left a review of 3 stars due to my breakfast sandwich being slightly burnt. After leaving the review, I was contacted and told that they had just gotten a new grill and they were still working on the temperatures; stating they would make it right. The next time I visited the store they expressed sincere apologies and gave me a free sandwich to make up for the last one. I’ve gone here religiously ever since and I’ve never had another bad experience!! These girls know me by name and they’re so freakin sweet! I love this place, 10/10 would recommend!! ❤️❤️

Great coffee and food. The Buddha bowl is my favorite... well maybe the Affagato is... can’t decide. Find unique options with quality ingredients and Kaladi Brothers coffee here.

We love the Buddha bowls here and their wide selection of drinks and other options on the menu. Always friendly service here. Definitely recommend.

Stopped by for the first time yesterday on our way home after we spent the day at Jim’s creek. All I have to say is OMG… I’m obsessed with this place. I wanted everything on the menu it was hard to choose. My husband and I got pineapple and watermelon dole whips (tasted just like Disneyland) and my son got a rainbow snow cone. I also got the Buddha bowl to try and now I’ll never be able to eat anything again because everything will compare to how amazing it was😂 I need the recipe because I need to make this multiple times a week since I don’t live close enough. PLEASE consider opening a location in eagle river, I would literally come every day! We need better food options in ER, this place would thrive.
