Biggest red flag for a coffee shop. That said, Tuscaloosa doesn't have a ton of coffee options, so if you're curious, go for it, especially since they rotate seasonal drinks. For balance: the matcha lovers in our party said theirs was excellent.

Today, we decided to get an iced quad shot oatmilk mocha from here and another place nearby and compare them. I'll include information on both but will say that if you want to taste the coffee (we like the taste of coffee), Turbo would be the better choice. Although we got our drink to go today, we like the ambiance. We have had mochas all over the US (including AK & HI) and in other countries that make them (some places don't), so we (and some of our friends) consider ourselves mocha connoisseurs. Iced Quad Oatmilk Mocha Turbo J: 6/10, lots of coffee, not much chocolate (prefer more), bitter, could use more sweetness N: 6/10, Strong coffee flavor (good), very (maybe too) bitter, barely any chocolate (not enough), too (syrupy) sweet Competitor J: 7/10, don't taste coffee (prefer to taste more), not bitter, could use 1 step up on chocolate, sweetness okay N: 6/10, needs more coffee flavor, needs more chocolate (taste it more than Turbo but no enough for me), still a little too sweet but not as syrupy, not bitter, don't like lid because of risk of coming loose/leaking I would come back but not weekly like I used to in 2020-21. What would make this a better mocha? IMHO, a quality unsweetened cocoa like Guittard Rouge, the ability to customize sweetness, and cooling the drink first in a cold cup before pouring over a bit more ice.

What would make this a better mocha? IMHO, adding more of a quality unsweetened cocoa like Guittard Rouge (not sure of chocolate used), the ability to customize sweetness, and cooling the drink first in a cold cup before pouring over a bit more ice. I'm not sure why the coffee taste was weak with a quad shot, but this did have more of a chocolate taste, although I prefer more. I also appreciated that although it was still too sweet for me, it didn't taste "syrupy." The lid is a bit of a hazard, as it kept popping off.

I have nothing but good things to say about it! I'm a coffee lover, but couldn't pass up this combo! My fiance got the lucky charms crappy because we wouldn't you get those marshmallows that are xl size if you could?! If you like sweet and to reminisce on your childhood, this is your drink!

It is a little pricey for what you get, and the menu isn't huge, but everything we tried was really good and made up for it. You can tell they put effort into the quality, which I appreciated. Overall, it's a great place to stop by if you're looking for something simple, cozy, and delicious--just be prepared for the smaller space and slightly higher prices!

I ordered an iced latte without sweetener. It wasn't as smooth as I was hoping. I went back a second time and I ended up ordering a latte with sugar free caramel, which was much better. For food, they have pastries and a full breakfast/lunch menu. I tried the cuffin, which was delicious. It was sweet, buttery, fluffy and warm. During my second visit, I opted for the banana muffin and it was just as delicious. The staff is also really friendly and coffee is made quick.

Had to ask workers, who had no idea what was going on or what drink we ordered. Since when are mobile orders more prioritized than face to face customers. Pathetic. Finally asked one last time after waiting nearly 30 minutes and she said, it's been 22 minutes... would you like a refund? Go to the cash register. Oh yeah, let me go waste more time on my chill sunday to go get a refund on something they didn't even try to make up for. Do better. We are making coffee people! Never will return.
