From Biblical scriptures on the drink glasses to the thoughtful decor, it is what most coffee shops want to be. The pastries selection is excellent! They also offer other breakfast and lunch options that are prepared quickly. On-street parking is available in front on Broadway and lot-parking available behind in a shared lot. Construction nearby slightly limits access from downtown, but a short detour to SW 2nd Ave takes you to the rear lot. Carryout is available, but treat yourself to the full experience by staying long enough to exhale your stress and find your smile. Seating is available on ground level and in the specious area upstairs.

The cheese danish was in my opinion even better than the Starbucks one. The coffee was pretty good and had a nice strong flavor. Service: The staff was very polite and professional. The first day we went, there were a few more customer so it took a minute to get the items, but the second day there were 2 people working so it was faster. Establishment: The place it self was very clean and accommodating. There were plenty of chairs, couch, and even a high top area. There are bathrooms as well.

The name of this business is very cute and apparently dog friendly. The inside is pretty spacious with plenty of seating and there is a small upstairs area off to the side. They had a white pumpkin coffee special they were offering so of course we both ordered that. No complaints, had great flavor and did the trick. It wasn't busy, but it did take a very long time for a cup of coffee. They do offer other menu items and there is a nice selection of ice cream that you will notice when you get to the counter. Overall, if you are in the area and need some coffee, recommend stopping in.

Basically traveled to WEC solely to give this place a try…read more Pretty unassuming being in the hotel but was surprised at the variety and quality of the pastries. Specifically had the raspberry and chocolate croissants and was very happy with both. Raspberry croissant was super flaky with a nice cream and jelly inside. Little messy to eat, but delicious and not too sweet. The chocolate croissant was also very good and both pastries were large. Price for both was a little steep but given size, quality, and being at WEC it really wasn't bad. Coffee was also pretty good with the price surprisingly reasonable be given its location. Place was fairly busy but the line moved quickly so it wasn't an issue. If you're looking for a nice pastry and coffee I would definitely repeat if you're at or near WEC.

Their teas are tasty, some are more to my taste than others. our favorite is the apricot. Each person gets a delicate china teacup and a ceramic pot full of tea, making drinking it a unique experience in this day of ceramic mugs or paper cups. Next, the atmosphere is cozy. Individual, unique tables paired with different chairs, so a guest wanting a hard chair can have one while another might like a more cushioned chair. Antique collars and purses hang from the ceiling. China teapots and cups decorate the shelves along the walls. Lace curtains hang in the windows. no canned music. Do you need a unique gift? There are various tissue holders - some shaped like birdhouses, others like a teapot for sale. or cushions, or soaps. As you wait for your food, wandering around or just looking around is a feast for the eyes. Hat racks full of hats and costumes adorn nooks and are for wearing to the afternoon teas. We have not done that yet, still enjoying the lunch visits. I would recommend making a reservation though. the tea room is not spacious, and we have seen walk ins turned away for lack of room. but for us, the highlight is the interaction with the owner. NOT for the snooty or stuffy customer. If you get offended when the owner jokes with you as he takes your order, PLEASE don't come here. Your attitude embarrasses us all. His demeanor is like that gruff old man who accepts that he has to repeat the specials, but who can't resist chiding you about it. All the staff is wonderful, but he stands out with his banter. For a lunch, or just tea and a scone, definitely try Sweeties.

I don't know if the selection changes daily, I forgot to ask, but on this day he had: Espresso brownies Pistachio white chocolate brownies Double chocolate brownies German chocolate brownies Toasted pecan brownies Naked brownies Cherry turnovers Vegan banana walnut bread I ended up going with the double chocolate brownie, and a macchiato.
