Even better, the coffee comes with a story: sourced directly from the family's farm in Guatemala, with coffee bags available for purchase in the shop so you can bring a little of the experience home with you. With their 3 year anniversary coming up this July, it's easy to see why they've built such a loyal following over the years. To beat the summer heat, I tried their Brazilian lemonade and added strawberry. It was a refreshing and delicious choice! If you're visiting, be sure to check out their seasonal summer drinks and food options as well.

It's only 3 minutes from my house and it is officially my new favorite spot This wonderful family-owned Guatemalan coffee shop has so many amazing options for coffee and teas -- there's truly something for everyone. Everything tastes fresh and made with care. They also offer small brunch specials like delicious sandwiches, which makes it the perfect cozy stop in the morning or afternoon. The best part? Everyone was so kind and welcoming. You can really feel the love and warmth as soon as you walk in. We absolutely loved it and can't wait to go back!

I was excited to see they had a mini print vending machine with custom options for the spot. These prints are watercolors made my a local artist and only cost $1. You don't know which of the 4 options you'll get. Be sure to bring your quarters! I didn't realize that there was an indoor baby/kid playground attached to the cafe, and saw a number of young families picking up a drink or snack before heading over. There's extra parking behind the building to accommodate, just realize it's the turn before the front entrance!

Such a lovely spot! The staff was extra friendly, and I loved that they have both a coffee shop and…read morea lounge area with large windows overlooking the play space so parents can comfortably watch their kids play. That setup was honestly awesome and made the experience really enjoyable. They also had food options for adults along with a great assortment of kid-friendly snacks and drinks like juices and yogurt melts, which was a huge plus. The only concern was that the slide had a gouge/damaged area on it, and unfortunately a child got hurt because of it. We would still come back, but we'll definitely be more cautious until that's repaired.

No exterior sign at all. Found my way inside and it took a few moments to be acknowledged. That's ok, baristas were busy, I get it. I was slightly underwhelmed at the dark interior. It was no where near as clean or charming as I had expected. Once greeted, I asked if I could have my Americano in a mug instead of a to-go cup. [Insert confused face here]. Apparently this was a tough request. Once we cleared this up, payment was processed and I took a seat at a booth. Coffee order was brought out in a small plastic cup. Yes- plastic cups. Mmmm, hot liquid served in plastic is my fav. (I'm kidding of course) worse yet, the coffee was straight up awful. Truly, it was bad and I hate to even say this. I know a small biz needs all the love it can get and I REALLY wanted to love this place. I even had an extra shot of espresso added and this drink wasn't even as good as a gas station. I'm a huge espresso lover. I have a fancy machine at home but I love to support coffee shops when I'm out running errands. There are very rare times that I have negative comments. Sadly, this was one of those rare occasions. On the bright side- clean restrooms & fun art on the walls. And I was able to snap some cute shots with a retro filter.

The bagels were perfect and you can tell everything is made with care. The music adds to the vibe, and I love that they always have different things going on like pop ups, markets, and social events. It feels like a place you actually want to hang out at, not just grab food and leave. Heads up: come early because they run out of their specialty cream cheeses fast, especially the garlic and chive. Definitely worth it though.

(Hats off to the baristas!) I've been coming here for years, and it's so exciting to see how much they've grown. Their comic inventory is impressive, and the staff always has great recommendations if you're looking for something new. My favorite thing about this place is the variety of events and the way they engage with the community. It's clear the owners continue to pour a lot of passion and love into this space. So next time you're in town, make sure to come for the coffee and stay for the comics--or come for the comics and stay for the coffee!

The coffee is decent, depending on what you get. I tried an espresso soda this time and it was really good. Super strong and refreshing- definitely for a specific palette though. We did get a bit of a weird vibe from the workers, they were nice but it felt very forced and just a bit odd. There's a really nice outdoor space here too- it's all very beautiful and definitely a nice spot to hang out.

A place you'd choose to eat, and than lounge with friends or explore the internet on your iPad. 5 stars here Service Counter service brought to your table with a smile. Girl was quite helpful and explained some of their dishes. 5 stars here Food The tea was a bit different but interesting. The steamed milk was done to perfection, with honey packets provided. I ordered scrambled eggs which were done to order with real eggs the ample amount of eggs (looked like 3) were fluffy and quite tasty. The sausage patty was pretty standard, nothing special. Interestingly, the biscuit was grilled (which I don't usually like) and didn't look like anything special. However, it was quite tasty and nice and fluffy. 4+ stars here. The bottom line Would I return? Absolutely. Three reasons (1) the food, although not outstanding, was fresh and good (2) the ambience was super. If you're looking for a place to come down from the stress of the day this is a great place to choose. (3) the cost of my breakfast is outstanding ($16 for my entire breakfast). In today's ever increasing prices for everything the Boston coffeehouse is an oasis amongst the desert of dining out today.
