★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Cindy Shadowens · Feb 2026

We bought two creme horns, two cherry turnovers & a peanut butter cookie this week. Thecookie was very good but crumbly. The turnovers were good with cherries in them. However, the creme horns left a buttery film in our mouths; like eating a stick of butter. The creme horns only had filling at the end. There was NONE in the middle; left a lot of tasteless pastry. Needless to say, we won't go back or recommend it. It was $16 for the experience

I have been here twice in the last two weeks and I love it. Great atmosphere. Free WiFi. Coffee is good and not super expensive like some places. And even better for me is that it's next door to a laundromat that's run by the same people (very nice air conditioned place). I'm new to the area so I'm glad I found this little gem.

Excellent shop to meet, & grab a delicious coffee or a muffin! It’s a must visit spot each time we are in town! The Baristas are the best to!

Clean with a very inviting atmosphere. The staff is very friendly. Prices are comparable to other local and franchise coffee shops. My personal drink of choice is the I Am Java Mocha -Frozen.
