What People Are Saying

from Google & Yelp

"Espresso based beverages are smooth, no bad aftertaste, however, if you go with the standard amount of espresso per size, it ends up just tasting like milk. If you actually like the taste of coffee, make sure to ask for an extra shot or two. Thankfully the prices are very reasonable so an extra shot latte isn’t going to break the bank. The food is okay, nothing exceptional but will do in a pinch when you get your coffee. The customer service is standard, nothing bad nothing good. Overall a decent coffee shop in Lancaster with good prices."

★★★★

"I liked this cafe enough. It’s more about speed and efficiency than it is about good coffee it seems. With Franklin and Marshall right beside it, I’m sure it’s catering more to the student rather than the coffee lover. Their coffee is cheaper than most, which is nice, but their sizes aren’t big, which is probably why they have cheaper prices. I liked the vibes of the cafe, but it was a bit loud for conversation with the music blasting."

★★★

"This place should be called Nice Mug, ’cuz this place sure is nice! Best coffee in the realm, and those hand pies (cheese, egg, bacon) are the greatest breakfast item ever to be sold in any coffee shop I have ever been to in my life (and I’ve been in more coffee shops than anyone alive today)."

★★★★★

"Coffee is dark roasted and amazing! Will be back for sure to grab coffee. I haven’t tried any of the food yet but it looks good. Staff was okay. No complaints but also not super friendly. Clean cafe but hardly no seating.. lots of people spread out over several seats “working”… leaving no room for others to have a coffee with friends."

★★★

"This coffee shop is hands down one of my favorite places to work. The atmosphere is perfect—cozy, inviting, and always has plenty of seating, even during busy hours. It’s easy to find a spot, and the vibe makes it comfortable to share a table if needed. The staff is incredibly friendly and genuinely cares about their customers. Today was a great example: I was so deep into work, completely in the zone with my headphones on, and I didn’t even realize they had closed at 2 PM. When I finally checked the time, it was 2:20 PM, and a staff member had just then come over to let me know—no rush, no pressure, just a kind acknowledgment. That kind of thoughtfulness is rare, and it really stood out to me. I always get a ton of work done here, and I appreciate how the space and the staff contribute to that. If you’re looking for a spot with great energy, a welcoming atmosphere, and a team that truly cares, this is the place. Highly recommend!"

★★★★★

"Fast service and great coffee. I love seeing what specials they have to offer every week. The staff is very helpful if you're unsure about what to order."
