★★★★★ 5.0 Amaris Klimczak · Jan 2026

This coffee shop is a hidden gem. Their coffee is delicious! We got the vanilla latte and blueberry lavender matcha. If you like your latte on the sweeter side make sure you let them know. We also ordered their cinnamon rolls, they’re made by a local baker and are sooo fresh and yummy! Love the atmosphere as well; they have lots of seating. Rachel helped us and she was so friendly and helpful with choosing coffee and also referred us to their seasonal menu. She was a delight! We love this coffee shop from their coffee and bakery items to their great customer service..you won’t be disappointed!

I’ve been going to this coffee shop for the past couple of years and it’s seriously such a gem. My mom and I absolutely love it, genuinely the best coffee shop I’ve gone to (and I even went abroad for four months!). The coffee is amazing, the pastries are delicious, and the staff is so friendly. If you haven’t gone here yet, go!! :))

Love this coffee shop! Great drinks whether it’s a flat white, cappuccino or latte but wow I tried their seasonal marshmallow latte today and it did not disappoint!! They were able to make it with half the syrup which was really nice as I don’t typically get flavored drinks but wanted to try this. They homemake their marshmallow syrup and top it with a roasted marshmallow… I mean who says no to that. This latte was perfect! The amount of flavor was just right and it was so delicious and exactly what I had hoped for. Cute little shop to enjoy the drinks and we will definitely be back.

I came to came to Portal West to study off of the Drip Drive and have found a lovely environment that cares for its patrons. Everyone has a smile on their face and always willing to chat or give a helping hand. Nick and Michael, you are both superstars and I will return for some more delicious coffee! I can't thank you both enough for treating me with kindness and providing me with a great and safe place to study!

Such a nice and cute little spot! All the employees were very nice and friendly. They have very creative and yummy specialty drinks and their matcha is the perfect bright green color. I’m looking forward to coming back and sitting in for a while.
