the cashier didn't let us know flat white didn't come with iced option but barista was nice enough to remake a latte. They also didn't have decaf beans. We went on July 1st on the hotest day but the cafe was really hot which caused all the frosting on our donuts to melt. The kid made a big mess from the frosting😕

The place is beautiful, very spacious, & has a welcoming atmosphere. The breakfasts we saw being served looked incredible, so we'll definitely come back another time to give them a try.
On this visit, we came specifically for the donuts. The presentation is lovely, & they certainly look as good as they do in the photos. However, at least the ones we chose didn't quite live up to our expectations. They were good, but after seeing how amazing they looked & hearing so many positive reviews, we were expecting a bit more in terms of flavor.
That being said, we still enjoyed the experience & would love to come back to try other items on the menu, especially the breakfast options.

I went with a friend around 4pm, so there wasn't many flavors than their opening. We choose 4 different flavors & there were fresh & tasty. But it kinda pricey. The donuts can be share. It was calm as there wasn't many people.

Nice cozy cafe. I like the seating arrangement. There are some nice tucked-away tables in the corners around the cafe, less distraction.

I ordered a mocha to go. Unfortunately, it wasn't sweet enough to my liking. At first, I thought all the syrup was at the bottom & that the barista hadn't swirled/mixed thoroughly with the steamed milk... Alas, nothing there either. Tasted more like a regular latte. Also, not sure what the latte art design was supposed to be.....

Service was meh. Girl at the counter was very professional & helpful. The baristas making the drinks however were too busy chit-chatting with each other & not making any effort to acknowledge their customers. Simply called out the names & left the drinks on the counter without eye contact or greeting them.

I didn't try the donuts but I passed by the pastries & saw some really fancy-looking ones. Might have to give them a try next time I come back.
