Being that Ramadan had recently started, I assumed this was post iftar, the evening break in the fast and peeps were coming for drinks and desserts. The drink menu is on a display but it doesn't mention what flavors are associated in some of their custom drinks. I was split between a Habibi, coconut or Biscoff flavored lattes. A conversation with the barista pushed me towards the aforementioned and they said they could lighten the sweetness. I don't remember the details of exactly what gives its "Middle Eastern flair", the flavors worked and kept me awake for the drive. Judging from the many orders being called out, I picked the most popular. If you dig chill spaces to work & or meet new peeps, seek out details on their IG page. They host lively events to discover their new menu items and or trivia nights engaging popular topics Ie Star Wars, Marvel, and more.

This place seems OK for groups that want to have conversations as there were some loud ones on day of my visit. If you are trying to work or read, this place is too noisy for that. Parking is shared with other businesses in the strip mall.

I stumbled upon it while dodging traffic and instantly got hooked. The coffee? Some of the best I've ever had. The vibe?

I think they truly live up to their Facebook slogan--love happens here--because it was there that I fell in love with them. #HiddenGem #BestCoffeeEver

Now that I got that out of the way, the owner is so so friendly. We had a Turkish coffee while deciding on which Turkish delights we would have. All of them were really good and I can't wait to go back for more. I thought the box would last us a week but it was barely half full by the time we made it home! It's such a pleasant experience and there is so much to learn if you haven't had any of these treats or the coffee (and how it's made) that it is worth the visit just for this, and the interaction with the owner, of course!

Kind of hard to find but that adds charm to it. They also have fun events and parties. Best things are the beers of course. It's for sure not the biggest but they still manage to produce a lot. There's quite a variety of styles. A lot of the classics as well as more exotic. It's about $8 a pint. Kind of a lot but again they make smaller batches of these. Best one we had of these was the Guapo Gaucho. This is a dark Mexican lager. Made with chili arbol and cinnamon. The food is pretty limited. Has breadsticks. These come pre bagged from a local company. Check the calendar. They have some food trucks come a few times a month. For sure it's worth looking for. It's actually open daily which is especially rare for a brewery to be honest. This is located by the Target on Quincy Street.

We saw this place from a distance and decided to check it out. This place reminds of Europe with the smell of bread hitting you, as you open up the door. I immediately went to the Danish, as I notice they weren't all doughy like American pastries. These things were made with love and perfection. I had a raspberry Danish as the wife had a cheese one with a coffee. These Danishes were light and flacky and taste was to savor. I took that first bite and knew I was in trouble. My wife looked at me and said. Yummy ! I saw then at that moment. I had a excuse to buy four more. This is an old school Bakery with exceptional customer service and all the ladies are polite and courteous. What makes this place special is its quality and natural ingredients. They're some good bakeries around but this one is by far the best. Exceptional Quality !

Inside they have tables and bar seating as well as pinball machines. Outside they have a KILLER patio with picnic tables, string lights and umbrellas for shared.

Love this spot when in the area! Tip: If you have not been to their Oktoberfest, mark it down on your calendar! It is one of the best in the area!
