I had a pour over & an espresso from here. Safe to say they take the coffee seriously. There were many options to choose from for pour over. The atmosphere was a great place to enjoy a cup of coffee I'm headed back shortly for another 💛

GREAT GREAT VIBE to work or catch up with a friend. Tables are close to each other but the space is open & airy. Different kinds of sittings, tables, counter tops/bars. Lots of plugs & ports to charge your device addiction. Table service is nice to have. Better than waiting at the bar for someone to yell your name wrong & spell it even worst & hand you an charred bean drink. Here the review of the reason you may want to go to a coffee shop... the brews & espresso drinks are great here. Loved my cortado! Perfect steamed milk for a smooth & still strong tasting espresso drink. Wished I had taken a pic before finishing it. Will gladly come back here to oblige my taste buds & caffeine fix. Good job baristas!

Spacious & modern cafe. Super service & such lovely staff who are so kind. Americano was great & the chocolate chip pecan cookie was delicious ( but it's quite large for one person, so maybe share it lol) My only complaint is that there's no high chairs for a baby or small kid. - yes I bring my kid for coffee dates... he's cool 😎 & well behaved lol. Either way this visit made for a fantastic Saturday morning xo

Popped in this morning before heading to the airport & was thrilled with this cafe. I loved the vibe - quaint & cozy. I was looking for some coffee to take home with me & was helped by a friendly staff member. He talked me through the options & I selected two types to bring home & I'm anxious to try them. I ordered a cappuccino which was as beautiful as it was tasty. Many people were enjoying the environment; some obviously working, others reading, some catching up with friends & then little ol' me the single traveler. If you're in the area, highly recommend you stop in & enjoy.
