There was a lot of natural light in the coffee shop, definitely a visually-appealing, 'aesthetic' place. I got an iced red tea and it was delicious. The tea was botanical, smooth and fragrant. Amazing experience! Excited to come back and try the coffee and pastries, which looked super fresh.

It seems like there's also an upstairs but did not get the chance to check it out. I got an iced latte with their almond macadamia milk, and they're also so nice to do complimentary cold brew! So we got an extra drink for free. Trying the iced latte, it was pretty disappointing lol. I thought it would be similar to like a Hawaiian style latte with macadamia milk, but it was a lot lighter than I thought. It was definitely very nutty, but it also just tasted like water down latte. Honestly not much going on with the drink, but it does taste lighter in general. Crazy have to pay $1.50 more to add on this milk. Overall, its alright. I do like the natural lighting coming into the shop, but nothing too special.

We chose this large city location thanks to easy parking and a convenient stop on our drive. It was a beautiful morning, which was easy to enjoy thanks to the high ceilings, big glass windows, and open main door. The first floor has a central counter to order food and drinks; the glass cabinet has a bunch of rotating pastries from a local bakery. They have restrooms and a merchandise area here too. At the front are counter seats along the front window, and also a horseshoe that looks into the roasting area, which is a great place to smell the beans. There's an upstairs loft that overlooks the cafe below, also with a test kitchen area and offices across to the front. They definitely have a larger business going on, and I can see why it's so popular. We ordered a latte, iced coffee, and various pastries to start our day. Prices were reasonable for the quality. All the baristas were friendly and fast to help.

Walked over early on a Sunday AM to do some lesson plans before the rush of the day and was surprised to see a no WiFi sign at the checkout. I understand that conversation and ensuring seating is open is important (especially on weekends), but annoying when you pay 8$ for a coffee. Will I stop coming? No, the coffee is good. I always get the dandelion mocha or a latte. If you need a place to work with a laptop then not for you.

I got a vanilla latte with oat milk and it was SO creamy and well balanced. The espresso tasted great, the vanilla wasn't overpowering, and everything worked really well together. I'm actually someone who rarely finishes an entire coffee, but I liked this one so much that I finished the whole thing! My one disappointment was that I specifically came here hoping to get some work done and found out they don't have WiFi. It's a little surprising considering how many tables they have, and the space otherwise seems like it would be great for working. Definitely something to keep in mind if you're bringing your laptop. But purely based on the coffee, I had a great experience and would absolutely get that latte again!

The shop itself is beautiful--very modern, clean, and aesthetically pleasing. It's definitely the kind of place where you'll want to sit and enjoy the atmosphere. The drinks are a little on the pricier side, but honestly, they're worth it. I ordered the Matcha Velvet Latte, which came with a really nice matcha cloud on top. The presentation was great, and the drink itself was delicious. One thing I really appreciate is that they carefully measure everything that goes into each drink, so you can expect the same consistent quality every time you visit. Highly recommend the Matcha Velvet Latte if you're a matcha fan!

Coffee is great and staff is always super welcoming and have attention to detail. I always stop in for a bag of freshly roasted beans and doing so gets you a free cup of drip coffee or cold brew. The only thing that is slightly inconvenient is the constantly long line to order. On the bright side once you order you get your drink right away regardless of what you order. It's a solid assembly line operation they got going. Especially in my case when I typically only get a bag of beans to-go I wonder if they could change the system to allow me to forgo the line altogether, that would be a pleasant change. Anyways I highly recommend this coffee shop! High quality all the way around!

Instead of lingering inside, the move is to take your drink to go and head down to Rincon Park, whether there are plenty of benches and waterfront views. That being said, I found the barista helpful, as she advised me on which drink to get. I wanted something cold and tea based, and she recommended the iced house made chai latte. It was nicely spiced, smooth, and made with House made macadamia almond milk. Delightful!

I typically don't add any sweeteners but was surprised at how their high quality milk had a little bit of sweetness (perhaps from the lactose?) that balanced the matcha nicely. The matcha americano with matcha snow top was also impressive. The americano was nicely mixed to begin with and paired well with the creamy, slightly sweet and slightly salty matcha cream without compromising the matcha bitterness. There were two lines - one for the kiosk and the other for staff. Since the latter line was shorter I thought I could get my order in early but the lady was *struggling* to get my orders straight and I had to repeat multiple times + she ultimately had to ask her co-workers how to edit. If it wasn't for this, I would have probably given them a 5. Drinks came out at a reasonable time but wish they cleaned the extra cream off the side. Despite the logistical hiccups I enjoyed my matcha drinks and would come back if I was craving matcha and in the area again.
