This place sucks and the drinks are awful

Worst matcha and lemonade I’ve ever had. Matcha tasted like lawn clippings, I wouldn’t even give it to a Guinea pig. Lemonade was literal syrup water. Girl taking the order was rude, unapproachable, couldn’t care less about engaging in conversation on drink suggestions, needs some basic human decency training honestly. Zero stars if I could. Worst 15 bucks I’ve ever spent, couldn’t even fix it at home. Straight in the garbage where it belongs.

Love the vibes. Love the coffee. Love the staff. Nicole was the sweetest and I will be studying here often.

This place is so cozy! I’m not a huge coffee or coffee shop person, but I decided to stop her for a quick regular coffee and bite to eat, to kill time until my nail salon opened around the corner. Atmosphere was very quaint, clean, and the barista was genuinely friendly. Service was fast and it wasn’t crowded at all. Would be nice if they had a couple, simple hot food items (light breakfast sandwiches etc), but they did have a small selection of pastries. I had the blueberry lemon loaf, was was good. I would definitely come back!

Been coming here for some years now when I'm in the area and I'm so proud of this company! The owner is an angel and LOVES to pour back into the community as well as supporting other small businesses in the area. Not only are they consistent, clean, delicious, but healthy on top of it all!
