Lucy is a gem. The atmosphere is communal, welcoming, comfortable, authentic and quietly elegant…read moreand authoritative about coffee. This is evident from the name Lucy -- the 3 million year old hominid discovered in Ethiopia and sometimes referred to as "the mother of us all", the understated murals, knowledgeable, friendly and helpful baristas, and of course the curated and highly enjoyable set of coffee beverages. My favorite is the macchiato, but every drink is an adventure of taste, aroma and texture that reflects refined coffee craftsmanship. The coffee is complemented by a delicious assortment of Ethiopian food and desserts, and a welcoming community. Lucy must be experienced to be truly appreciated. Once you do, you will recognize that Lucy feels like home -- on the first and every visit.

Stopped to give the Butterfly Drink a try and I may have found another fave refresher. I ordered…read morethe Trenta and I always ask for lite ice. Mostly because prices are going up and I want a drink to quench my thirst, not ice (even though the drink comes with that fabu pebble ice). The drive thru was popular so I chose to walk in and browse the merch before ordering. No matter how busy it is (and this location really drums up the business) I am always met with a smile and the baristas serving the drinks have always been friendly with me. If time is not on your side, it is a definite bonus to use the app and order ahead.

Blazing FAST internet speed! Working remotely, I wanted to find a cafe that had excellent wifi…read more At many cafes that I've gone to, the wifi speed can't handle video conference and A/V streaming. I was shocked to see how FAST the internet is here at the cafe. 130bps Down and 125 mbps Up. Absolutely incredible. It's also nice to have plenty of room between tables and chairs to sprawl out to work and relax. Love it here!!!

The first Monday of every month, East hills community church hosts a 2 hour Storytime with Daycare…read more It's amazing! It's not drop off daycare, but you leave your kids in the nursery while you have a coffee with your friends, or work etc in the coffee shop. You can't see the coffee shop from outside because it's inside the church building. They separate the kids according to age levels. The little kids play with toys, older kids get storytime and games. If it's warm they play in the playground outside as well. Very well organised. The drinks are all very reasonably priced. My 16oz tea was $1.75 and the coffees are a little more. The seating area is clean and comfortable, everyone is very friendly. There was even a child safety seat in the restroom if you don't want to leave your kid strapped to the change table! Will be back!

My son totally surprised me by introducing me to this wonderful restaurant!…read moreThe food was amazing. I played it safe, so I went with the pancakes, which my son had ordered . The staff were so friendly, they were kind enough to swap out the pork in the dish for potatoes, which made it all work perfectly. After we finished ordering, the restaurant got really busy. To make the most of our time, we headed out to the patio to soak up the sun. Every bite was a treat, with so much on my plate, I even had some leftovers to enjoy later. Having a delicious breakfast with great company made for an unforgettable dining experience.

The build-your-own skillet and the pancakes (whether you get them gluten-free or regular) are must-tries. The prices are also pretty affordable. You order at the cash register first and then find a seat, so keep that in mind. We went during a slower time, but I can definitely see this place getting busy during peak hours. There's a parking lot and there's additional seating available outside. Overall, it's a great spot for breakfast or lunch, and we'll definitely be back!

I placed my order online (the fees and tax and tip made a $5 chai latte come to almost $9 though but I think that's just the area) and the woman working waited until I arrived to make it so that it wouldn't get cold. she was so quick though! and while I was waiting, I noticed some packaged French cookies that were vegan so I ended up grabbing some of those and they and the latte were both delicious! and the woman was very friendly and helpful. I think I've found my spot! I will definitely be back and am excited to check out the grocery store and other menu items.

Not super-far from me in Aurora, the beverage purveyor Xpresso Tea & Coffee (formerly Presotea…read moreuntil a few months ago) is popular with admirers of both hot and cold drinks of various descriptions, and after one taste, you'll be a fan too. Upon entry you may be a bit apprehensive once you see the sizable list of both the beverages themselves, as well as possible toppings and add-ons. But the friendly staff will advise you of personal favorites and also explain which combinations will be especially appealing (and also, not so much). A drink I've enjoyed on a past visit was brown sugar milk tea with crème brûlée, which was subtly sweet and rich rather than going overboard. If you're in a more purist frame of mind instead, may I recommend the A Li Shan? Named for a popular scenic area in central Taiwan, it is in fact a variety of oolong tea and features both fruit and floral notes to awaken the palate. Speaking of flowers and fruit, the sakura (cherry-blossom) and white peach teas are a few more items to consider. But don't forget the add-ons - a few that especially stand out to me are agar jelly, coconut cream, red beans, and aloe vera. But see what appeals to you when you stop in.

However it still did the trick…read more The video boards that cycle through the drink selections moves pretty quick but once you figure out what you want it's not too bad. Service is great. The cashier was attentive and super friendly. I enjoyed the brief interaction before a line formed behind us. Even with a number of people waiting everyone remained calm and hustled. I would certainly return. The bright and cheery environment really set the pace. Even the plants gave it a bit of a home-like feel. Great times and good vibes!
