What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"I rave about this place to every coffee lover I know, get bags to gift to people for birthdays and holidays, and truly cannot go back to commercial coffee after a year of their Guatemalan coffee beans. Everything about this shop is amazing, from the owner and his coffee knowledge, to the variety of coffee, tea, roasting gadgets, cups, everything you’d need to brew a perfect cup. I’ve truly never seen coffee and espresso beans that look so fresh and the taste is even better. I use half the amount of grounds and still have more flavor than a standard cup. Lifetime customer :)"
"The selection of teas and coffee here is outstanding. They have the coffee clearly labeled and note the roast level. There's a variety of flavored coffees for folks that enjoy that and of course, non-flavored options as well. The price is competitive for the quality of coffee that you're getting. A lot of interesting tea options. They sound great, but I haven't tried them, since I don't drink tea often. They also carry some spices, brewing gear, and a few other things. The person that owns/staffs it is always friendly and helpful. It's easy to see why this place has been around for decades. Highly recommended!!"
"I’ve seen this coffee/tea shop around for ages and I finally got around to stopping in. I really regret not coming in sooner. I have a lot of varieties of tea at home already, so usually I have a hard time finding a lot of new ones to try in person instead of ordering online. That being said, the variety of unique tea blends and international options here is amazing. The pricing at this quality is also better than what I’ve seen at any other tea shop. And while I personally don’t know as much about coffee, there are so many options I’m sure anyone could find what they want. On top of that, the person who runs this store is so kind, welcoming and happy to help. I would highly recommend this shop and I will be coming back."
"The best store for high quality coffees and loose leaf teas. I especially love the selection of chamomile and mate teas available, and Sam is super knowledgeable and helpful. I highly recommend!"
"Lovely local shop for bulk coffees and teas. The Owner is very knowledgeable and friendly. So many types of beans to choose from and he will grind them for you too!"
"I was in the area and decided to pop in and check out the tea collection. Cute little shop with all the amazing smells! Owner Sam was friendly and helpful...."
