Just a great place to grab a quick coffee/snack to go or to sit down and work. Almost always quiet and chill yet consistently has people in it. A go-to spot if you need to focus on a laptop.

Fair Trade coffee is excellent! I often go there after the Saturday morning Mass from Holy Redeemer. I really like thier black bean burger. That is very tasty! I would definitely recommend this coffee house for some excellent food and excellent coffee!

We visited on a Saturday afternoon. The place was quite busy, but ordering and receiving our drinks was quick. I ordered a chai latte, hot. It really hit the spot. It was too cold to sit outside and all the indoor seating was full. I'm glad to see the place was doing so well.

Coffee here is really delicious, staff is nice and they always seem to be enjoying themselves when I come. Food is okay but it's expensive for what it is. The sweets are better than the savory stuff!
