Actually amongst one of my favorite coffee shops now, the smoothies are great, & the staff are very patient. I went when it was just a little bit busy but the wait time was quite average I'd say. I do like that they do smoothies differently, definitely very inspired! Price is reasonable for what you're getting & the ingredients used. :)!

The brunch was ok. It gets busy in the afternoons, so finding a table on weekends can be tricky. I like the cozy decoration, though it can get noisy when crowded. I especially enjoyed the desserts with their teas.
