What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"Drink Happy Thoughts is a great little spot in Uptown—cozy, welcoming, and very neighborhood-forward in the best way. The Butter Me Up drink was the clear standout: a perfect balance of sweetness and espresso, smooth and incredibly well done. The Bee Sting was good, but I would’ve loved a bit more kick to really make it pop. Food-wise, their breakfast sandwiches are fire. The Notorious with pesto was a fantastic start to the day—flavorful, satisfying, and clearly made with care. Really happy to have found this local gem. Will definitely be back."
"Small coffee shop with a solid selection of specialty drinks along side a few sandwiches and pastries. Seating is very tight, maybe space for 10 at most. Decor and art are nice and the place has good vibes. Sandwiches could have been a bit better, maybe needed some kind of sauce. The drip and specialty drinks were very good though."
"What a beautiful day to stop by again! The Bagel sandwich and the in-house Chorizo empanadas were to die for. The sun exposure at the window was the cherry on the sundae. DEFINITELY ADD THIS COFFEE SHOP TO YOUR LIST!!"
"Vegan friendly! I was so happy to be able to get a yummy pastry with my blissful oat milk matcha latte ☕️ nice spot to meet up with friends or enjoy solo and do some writing on my laptop. Great location, easy access from the Wilson red line and plenty of street parking out front too."
"A cute coffee shop with a great little menu. Even their drip coffee is caffeinated UP. Just what I need!"
"Such a cute spot! Everything we had was delicious! The iced latte in the bear cup is adorable, smoothies are fab and the breakfast sandwich was top notch!..."
