from Google & Yelp"One of a kind, I see the potential to be Starbucks famous but more homemade, more soul, less corporate. You can taste quality food, drinks and the staff is friendly, which reflects they're taken good care of by the employer. It is a bit pricey but I think it makes up for how good it taste.

"Our drinks were so good! Natalia took our order and she was so helpful with figuring out what we should order. Definitely will always make a stop on here on the way to San Diego."
