I was pretty disappointed. The place is lovely but the food and the coffee were disappointing. I ordered a cappuccino and it was extremely bitter -- so much so that I didn't even drink it. I am a knowledgeable coffee person so i know that espresso can sometimes be a bit bitter, but this was so unbalanced it wasn't even drinkable. And the avocado toast was just plain bad. Overpriced for what I got and not tasty. Sad not to like this place. The employees were friendly and the ambiance was nice but that's about it.
This spot is a beautiful gem in Rittenhouse Square. As you enter, you are met with such peaceful and thoughtful decor and plants 🪴. I had the Banana Bread Matcha and an Almond Croissant. Both were absolutely delicious! The seating was a little tight in the back (I could be a smidge claustrophobic). But I found a comfy chair close to the entrance - it was perfect for me. The staff was pleasant and kept up with the pace and the crowd. I will absolutely come back to this establishment and might purchase a plant on the way out.
The ambiance is really nice, and I love the decor! I had the nut-free peanut butter gluten free Oreo mocha, and it was so good The end of the line was right by the inside of the door when I arrived, and it was out the door when I left – a steady stream of people coming here I loved the seasonal options they had for coffee, but I was disappointed by how small the coffee was compared to how much it cost ($8.10 including taxes but before the tip)
The inside is so cute! I love their drink options too, lots of unique signature drinks to choose from. I tried the ice cream latte which said they combine red guava with espresso which cuts out the bitterness and tastes like ice cream. It just tasted kinda fruity which isn’t bad but not what I was expecting. The chocolate strawberry latte was way better. Nice and sweet and perfectly encapsulated the chocolate strawberry flavor. Also the cups they use are cute and something different. I’d definitely come back to try more or honestly get another chocolate strawberry latte!
This place was really cute! I’ve wanted to go for a minute 😛 it’s very cozy for a rainy day like today and the atmosphere is very welcoming. The cashier was very sweet and good to talk to 🥰 I got a matcha bubble tea + 1 pump of banana syrup and my mom got some sort of mushroom coffee. It was $16 for two and the cups were small (see picture). I thought the sizes would be bigger! So even though the place is nice, it’s a little pricey for smaller drinks. The drinks were fine, but not worth $8 each.
