What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"Why are iced drinks always melted when they are served? I think the baristas add ice in the end instead of at the beginning so the drink is always melted, warm, and watery. :("
"The house-made Lavender syrup (in an iced latte) was amazing, and the “Paisley’s Pesto” sandwich on house-made sourdough bread was so good I’m daydreaming about it still hours later! The owner, Heather, encompasses all good things, & the shop is located in a beautiful area of town….perfection all around! 10/10 recommend!"
"This a great place to grab a coffee and a bite. Coffee is all high qaulity, has a wonderful smell and tastes just right. It feels like a coffee machine is well taken care of and cleaned regulary, so no ash aftertaste. Pastry is fresh, I would even rate local croissants 3.5/5 by an absolute grade and 4.9/5 for US market. Atrisan sandwiches looks good and taste the same. And I especially recommend this place for a rainy day, feels very cost here. Only two negative aspects for me are the size and prohibition against sitting here with a loptop."
"Food was good with nice pesto Bagel and Smashed Avocado in toast. Coffee very good, expresso and latte both good. Plus really good cup of English Breakfast tea."
"The best bacon egg and cheese I've had in a long while..."
