So many good things to say, just wow! The French toast is quite possibly the best I've ever had. The espresso is perfection, and the black tea latte is a must try its seriously so good. With a nice neighborhood setting I couldn't ask for more!
I have been working my way through local roasters and was there to give them a try. I told the girl at the counter that I wanted to try their espresso beans. So I ordered an espresso and asked for a flat white to go. She said, "we don't make flat whites because they use a restretto shot and we only pull doubles". I said ok, let me have a dry cappuccino. She said "we don't make dry cappuccino because we don't add air to our milk when frothing". I further clarified that I just wanted an espresso with an equal part of steamed milk, she then condensendingly held up a 6 and 8 oz cup and said "this is what we make". I was shocked and asked, are you telling me you won't pull a shot and add a bit of milk. The guy behind the counter says, "we aren't the kind of shop you are used to". So I asked him, how do you know what I'm used to. He brought up Starbucks and their version of a flat white. I make my own coffee and have never orded a flat white from starbs.This was not an enjoyable experience. I am a coffee nerd and am just trying to buy local. I have been using around 80 pounds a year, almost all from online sources.These folks take themselves far too seriously. Btw, the girl made my cappuccino to go, it was a cup full of milk with some espresso in it. This is no one's definition of a cappuccino. /sigh.
I do not recommend this place. I would have given it a negative number of stars, if that was possible. I can honestly say that I don’t understand why this place gets so many positive reviews after going here. The coffee I drank was incredibly sour (literally like pure lemon juice) as was the attitude of the staff that worked there. They brought my wife and I the coffee we ordered and there was no area to help yourself to sugar, cream, etc., so we asked for some as some coffee shops do that but happily give some when asked. It was as if we’d asked the young woman who helped us to give up her future children. She gave us what we asked for, but there was a world of contempt in her attitude as she gave it to us. I know we were polite in our behavior. The lady who took our order and the lady who made the coffee were positively rotten. I asked my wife, if her experience with these two women was the same and she said it was. I generally support local coffee shops, but, if there is a Starbucks in the area, I recommend going there instead.
This is a great neighborhood coffee shop! Lots of people using their laptops. We had pastries there were several to choose from even a few gluten free. The coffee was really good and they have a pay it forward option at the end a nice touch.
Found this place as I was looking for a coffee shop to meet someone in the downtown area and without to worry about parking. The drip coffee is pay as you wish. The staff was very friendly.
I just stopped in for a moment to check this place out and use the bathroom.. but wow! What a lovely atmosphere, well lit with outlets near the seating. Free wifi, living plants throughout the shop and even some in the gender neutral bathrooms! I will be back.
Kind staff, cozy atmosphere and great coffee. I love to buy coffee and go to the playground right next to the coffee shop.
I would post a picture of the quiche but I already ate it. This coffee shop is AMAZING. My husband used to be a barista at a high-end coffee shop so we are snobs, and this place is sophisticated and amazing. Their coffee is perfect, shots perfectly pulled, and their food is out of this world. I also love the vibe of the place, and parking is easy. Two thumbs up from me!
The staff was very friendly and helpful. I will say that I enjoy my lattes on the sweeter side so if you’re like me then ask for extra sweetener. They cater to coffee lovers. The atmosphere was perfect to study. Highly recommend!
This place is a great coffeeshop. Good coffee, kind employees, and great aesthetics and lighting!
