Water was very hot, so I did ask for some ice to help cool it down enough to drink right away. They have a variety of other coffee and drinks. Also they have desserts, pastries, and sandwiches. There are a few comfy chairs by the entrance. Tables for 2-4 ppl along the wall and a larger table in the back. Great place to have a quick meeting or small study group.

And while it may be a little difficult to find it, it proves the maxim that good things are worth looking for (if that's not a maxim, it is now). The owner roasts his own coffee beans, roasts chicken in house, uses orgcanic greens, makes his own salad dressing, and makes soups from scratch daily. Plus, he serves breakfast, with all the accoutrements one would want. I enjoyed a fresh cup of coffee, some scrambled eggs with sausage, and an English muffin. It was all tasty. The star of the show, however, was the sample of lentil soup he gave me. As I was paying for my bill, I said to Ashraf, the owner: "I'll be back next week to buy some beans from you. And if I like your soup, I'll buy that too. Trust me." "I do trust you," Ashraf said. "And I trust my soup. You'll be back" He was right. I tried the soup that afternoon. It's delightful, flavorful, and made with love. I went back two days later, and bought my coffee beans, and a quart of lentil soup. This is my new favorite place.

Service was fairly quick, and there's decent seating inside, perfect for catching up with friends or relaxing solo with a drink. We tried the karak chai, which was super flavorful and refreshing, and the madras coffee -- which honestly stole the show! It tastes just like authentic filter coffee from India, rich and perfectly balanced. The bun with malai and honey was light, fluffy, and paired perfectly with our drinks -- a simple but absolutely delicious snack. Definitely recommend this spot if you love authentic chai or South Indian-style coffee -- a true hidden gem worth visiting!

However, here as in the picture, you can see they were very generous with the meat. The meat was very tender and flavorful. I like that they put their own spin on the sandwich with their spices. Not spicy. -grilled tandoori chicken sandwich 5 - I gobbled this up within minutes. The chicken was very succulent.

Our waitress understood the assignment and treated us well. As did the kitchen because our food was TASTY and really hit the spot. Portions?... big enough the fuel you all. day. long.

Although there were umbrellas, the rain was still dripping over the tables, but our server kept a positive attitude even though we weren't able to change our seats to be inside. My dad enjoyed his skillet, and I got a panini, and I'm amazed by the huge portion sizes. The panini was good, with juicy chicken and a delicious subtle apricot spread. The fries are huge as well, and super crispy. Buttermilk's pancakes are probably my favorite pancakes, as they are light, soft, fluffy, and subtly sweet. This was a good spot for a casual brunch with family.

Overall: When I am in town (which isn't often) I like to stop by here for boba. The staff is friendly and patient (because I don't know what to order since I'm not a regular) and it is a happy place. Even the details (the little signs that have the wifi password) are fun and inviting.
