What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"Wonderful coffee shop! Great location, easily accessible…fantastic coffee, yummy treats! We did not get a hot meal so I can’t speak on those, but they looked delicious! Very friendly and accommodating owners! They are there every day with smiles and kindness! During our 5 day trip, this is the only coffee shop we frequented…and Starbucks, Peet’s, and Philz were also within walking distance - so there’s something to be said about that! We are coffee connoisseurs and are particular about our coffee, and these hit the spot! I got the iced mushroom latte and my man got a hot latte with a few extra shots and Oatmilk. We also snagged a cherry danish and chocolate coconut macaron. Omg!! Thank you! We appreciate your thoughtfulness, service, and amazing coffee!"
"One-line: Great local cafe/wifi-hotspot with a varied food menu, friendly service, and options for drinks and pastries. Numerous outlets. Recommended. I didn’t like this place the first few times I visited. I didn’t like the look of it so much but I’ve found the staff to be truly welcoming which blots that out. I’ve also appreciated being able to work and read in a quiet space while having access to decent food (breakfast, sandwiches, and Thai/Asian inspired plates) and a good drink (coffee, tea, sodas, wine and beer) in this kind of setting. Wifi is good. Bathrooms are clean. Drinks and food come out quickly. There’s even outside seating. There’s always folks working here if you want co-working vibes without the hassle of such spaces. My one hang up is that I feel like the food prices are a little high, including for the pastries which are store-bought. But the portions are mostly okay and folks are lingering for a while so maybe it makes sense. As for drinks, I wish they had more cold coffee drink and cold tea drink options but they do seem to constantly add new items to the menu which is great. Atmosphere could maybe be improved by personalizing the space more. Maybe some art on the walls. I had the chicken curry this time. It was okay. I wish these folks the best. I’ll be back."
"Bagel came out hot and fresh. Can’t give it 5 stars because the eggs were pre packaged. I don’t know if the bagel was made in house. If you can look past that, then this is a great sandwich. Cheese was definitely pulling. Price we decent as well."
"Amazing bagel breakfast sandwich. Moving here from San Diego and the bagels are always crap and the sandwich is luke warm…this bagel was amazing and the sandwich was hot thru the last bite. Wife also liked her wrap (it was big for her)."
"Beautiful corner cafe, lovely staff, good wifi and sitting area! They make great food and coffees at a very reasonable price. The staff is very nice and talented 😁"
"Came here for breakfast and it was so good! I love their avocado toast (Im a sucker for avocado toast) and I love the flavor profile. The iced chai tea was..."
