    What a coffee connoisseurs heaven! This petite coffee shop and bakery is a local favorite and I'm happy to say, I felt all the love! Be sure to park in their designated lot behind them. You are instantly greeted as you walk in and smell the coffee and pastries aroma! They have Apple Pay and all the fixings for your coffee the way you like it. You can tell they all love to work for this local gem and it is rated in the coffee and pastries. They know almost everyone's name who walks in the door. How sweet!! I was able to snag their last bacon, egg and cheese biscuit which was so good! Forgot to get a pic of it since I ate it so fast. You are a lucky one if you're able to grab a seat at the coffee bar and catch up with the locals while enjoying some local coffee and treats!

    Cozy vibes and great coffee! I also love their outdoor space for studying when it's nice outside

    Latte to go, where's the love!

    If you must...then you must, but only because you are an addict and a poor latte is better than no latte at all. This place has the funky vibe, but not the coffee mojo.

    Stopped in for a latte and wasn't disappointed. Lovely local coffee shop with a cozy interior & exterior. Not a lot of seating inside so keep that in mind but wasn't an issue for me as I was just passing through for a quick grab & go. Friendly staff, homemade goodies to buy (local treats).

    Cozy local coffee place off of Fontane and the end of JPA. It's a small coffee bar with seating along the counter and a petite outdoor patio. There is a small parking lot in the front so on busy days, drive around back to find a space. So far, I've tried the iced mocha and really liked the thick mocha flavor mixed with the espresso. It blends nicely when the ice begins to melt so it isn't too strong of either flavor. The pastry selection is something I appreciate because from time to time they'll offer amazing croissants stuffed with ham and Gruyere, or spinach and feta. Delicious.

    $4.10 for an iced coffee? Maybe that's the price for a mom and pop to compete against Starbucks, or to pay for paper straws .... but seriously?

    Wonderful bacon, egg and cheese biscuits. While the drinks are on the pricey side, milk substitutes are not an additional charge.

    If you love chocolate, and you have never gotten a mocha at Atlas coffee, you need to go right now.

    Everything is delicious and great service. Look for the day old bakery items to get a great deal that still tastes great.

    The latte was a bit on the milky side for me. Good coffee otherwise.

My croissant tasted as though it was sourced from Costco; it had been heated up, which made it marginally palatable. I asked for a large cappuccino and got a drink that tasted as though a sugary syrup had been added to it. There was a huge volume of milk, which I guess was OK, and a small amount of OK-tasting espresso. The breakfast was convenient enough that I figured I'd go back for a second round the next morning. However, when I arrived at the coffee bar on Day Two, I was told that the person who would be staffing it was "running late" and that the croissants had not yet arrived. The front desk person found it in her heart to pour me some coffee from the huge urn at the coffee bar. I was grateful for the free lobby coffee but headed outside for my official breakfast. Outside was better.

There is a good amount of seating with two large shared-space tables and smaller circular tables, and there is free wifi access. The cafe offers coffee, tea, and draft options. I've only come in for coffee and tea twice and felt that it was overpriced for what you get. They only offer their iced drinks in the large option, and it's probably because the iced drink consists of 8-10 large ice cubes that take up a majority of the space of the cup. The iced chai and hot soy latte tasted good, but were standard. The food was kind of meh - I ordered a biscuit which was barely warmed up. Overall, an okay cafe (probably not my first choice to go to), but it will give you a caffeine fix if you need it.

It's my first time there and I missed the large option which is my mistake. Got like a small 12-16 oz cup. I asked if I could pay to get it as a large drink and the manager couldn't comprehend that all she had to do was void the transaction and I'd ring up the new drink and tip the baristas for the inconvenience. I'm not trying to make a service worker feel bad but it's on management to not be so stingy on just helping a customer. For $8-9 it did not feel worth the money and genuinely the customer service with some of these Asian boba shops are atrocious compared to the ones in Richmond like even Tsaocaa or Zen Cafe or in Nova like Teas N You I've been to owned by competent owners and workers that aren't incompetent.

As usual, I'm looking for the best coffee roaster to go to, and Lone Light Coffee was on the top of my list in this area. The coffee shop is on the smaller side, but it was warm and comfortable. The baristas were nice and three of them gave me their input on which single origin I should choose for my pour-over. POUR-OVER - MKT Price +6.50 for Mohammed Aba Nura - Ethiopia (tasting notes: Strawberry, white chocolate, hazelnut) I wanted the craziest tasting option they had, and they recommended this one since it's pretty popular and well-liked among customers. However, one of the barista said he didn't really like it himself. I figured I should still try it. The sips I had while it was still warm was pretty juicy and sweet, but I really didn't like the notes once it cooled down (about 20 minutes later), which tasted sour and off-putting. I should have listened to that one barista and went with a different single origin option. Overall, good roaster -- just unfortunate that I tried something that wasn't for me. The baristas seem knowledgeable and passionate about their craft. I would love to come back next time and try another single origin offering.

The baristas are excellent at making coffee, friendly, and the seasonal drinks are creative. They have a cardamom syrup that's delicious in lattes.

I wouldn't recommend trying to get work done here during a busy time since it's not a huge space.
