"an amazing second location to stumble upon was staying at a hotel nearby and did not realize that they were still close. the coffee was delicious. the atmosphere was clean and beautiful right by the ocean. couldn't think of a better way to start by morning then homemade desserts an best coffee around!"

★★★★★

"The coffee is exceptional and their seasonal specials are always really excellent. The latte with maple is my personal favorite. We make a point of visiting as much as we can when in town. The space is wonderful and full of light. So nice to sit in the sunshine especially on a cold day with a hot beverage!"

"I just moved to the area and discovered this coffee shop. I was enjoying their Gingersnap latte the past few days until a bad experience this afternoon. It was snowing heavily and I had my ten week old puppy nestled in my coat. I walked in to quickly grab two lattes to go for myself and my boyfriend, who I was heading to meet. I was chatting with another patron as I waited to order, when a female employee came up to me and quite nastily informed me that dogs weren’t allowed. I assured her that my puppy wouldn’t be leaving my arms and I simply wanted to quickly grab two lattes to go. She snapped back at me that it was a “health code issue.” I said “So you’re telling me I can’t grab the lattes…?” She responded with “whatever” and walked away to slam glasses into a bin. (For reference, she was heavily tattooed with black hair and wearing a black face mask. I didn’t see a name tag.) The older gentleman I had been speaking with found the whole thing absurd, as did I. I honestly don’t see how there was any reason to make such a big deal of nothing, but moreover, it was her attitude and the way in which she spoke to me that really put me off. I suppose I could have proceeded with ordering at that point, but after the rude encounter, no thank you. I was more than happy to take my business elsewhere. The gentleman recommended “Buzz Coffee” a short walk away and that is where I went. I highly recommend it; such an adorable coffee shop with killer holiday lattes and cookies, where myself and my puppy were greeted warmly."

"I have mixed feelings. I actually love the coffee. It has a unique flavor and I purchase the beans often to brew it at home. But the price of drinks at the cafe is quite high. Their regular size is a 10-oz cup, the large is 16 ounces. We got one of each today - a large mocha and a small latte. The mocha was $9, not including tax and tip."

"My partner and I go here at least a few times per month and it has never disappointed. Excellent coffee. It's difficult to find a coffee shop with the option of a pour over, and they do it very well with several bean options. Highly recommend the light roast varieties. Their cappuccino is great as well. They typically have a small selection of pastries and breakfast sandwiches (very good, but on the pricey side). They have a small new outside covered area as well that you can sit with a dog. If you have high expectations for your coffee, go here, you won't be disappointed."

"Stuck in here after getting off of a boat that we're doing a cruise on that stops in Portland. They are directly across the street from where you..."
