What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"The atmosphere and vibe is definitely why you wanna go here. Lots of different drink options. This was intended for college students - lots of great seating options for hanging out and studying. Love this place!"

"Telling that is really the only "cafe" on campus that explicitly requires you to purchase something to patronize. Businesses run like this are clearly only interested in profit and exploiting the student and local community rather than providing a place to gather and engage with other humans. "Why should I give back to the people I make all my money off of?" Expect a soulless faux-midcentury modern coffee atmosphere with lulling AI generated "jazz" on loop for hours on end. Music that somehow is both pacifying and maddening. Food and drinks are decent, and the sandwiches are reasonbly priced. Student workers are lovely as always."
"I have no idea why this place is $$ when it really is $. Much better than Starbucks imo (i don't really care about the inspector situation because as long..."
