I've been coming to this café for over 10 years. This is my place - my favorite coffee, my favorite atmosphere, my little ritual. But lately… what is going on?

Every time I try to come in, sit down with a friend, enjoy a coffee, read a book, or just relax with my child, I end up walking into what feels like a fully functioning coworking space. It's no longer a café - it's'Open Office 24/7.' Every table is taken by someone glued to a laptop for two, three, sometimes four hours. At this point I honestly feel like some of them should start paying rent.

I miss the atmosphere this place used to have - when you could actually find a table, enjoy the vibe, & connect with real people instead of feeling like you're interrupting someone's Zoom meeting.

Please consider making weekends laptop-free. No need for anything drastic - just give people who come here for the coffee, the warmth, & the community a chance to actually enjoy it without competing with a sea of glowing screens.

I love this café with all my heart. That's exactly why it's so sad to see it slowly turn into a tech hub instead of the cozy place it used to be.

Usually love this place. All the baristas are super friendly & nice to chat with. I reliably get a great drink made well every time I come in (a few times a week). The other day there was someone I'd never seen working who threw off the whole vibe (an older woman maybe mid 40s). She seemed friendly enough with customers but was rushing & stressing while making my drink. She also seemed to snap at the other people working which was very tense & weird to see. I'm not sure if she thought they were moving too slowly or doing something incorrectly but it was way more disruptive to have someone so visibly frustrated than it would've been to wait another minute for a drink. The chaotic energy felt more suited to a starbucks or fast food spot than the cozy local coffeeshop I'm used to. Hoping she was just a trainee (& there's always room to improve!) but, owning a business myself, I'm always happy to receive feedback & wanted to offer my own.

Great service & relaxed vibe in Monkland village. Thank you barista for a proper cappuccino (i.e., I can taste the espresso as opposed to having a cup of hot milk! ;)
Will be back.

Good vibes at the coffee shop, a place that you can tell people come to do work, very small space & tables though. There were literally rows of people on laptops inside, me being one of them. Space was clean & cool inside.
