I got a vanilla iced shaken chesspresso and a kugelhopf cake. The cake was insanely good! It was thick but not too dense, wasn't overly sweet and the addition of powdered sugar and some mini chocolate chips was so good! It was filling and ended up being my breakfast for the day instead of just a snack. Sadly, the drink wasn't anything special. I got a 24oz which I would expect to have extra espresso but it tasted like a single shot was added. I could not taste the vanilla at all and had some sugar grit in my first couple of sips. I am guessing cane syrup is not used but granulated sugar instead. The service was average, it looked like a slow morning for them and the staff chatted amongst themselves as they prepared my order. There was plenty of space available which was nice, they could accommodate alot of people and actually have room for more tables or at least one more very large one.

Good lavender latte to go. But the place is adorable. Close to my apartment. So I will visit again.

The murals were incredible!!especially the Candyman one, which was a real highlight. I stopped by on a weekday, so it wasn't too busy, which made for a really relaxing experience. I tried the Skull Island latte, and it was super delicious. They have a fantastic selection of other coffee house drinks and pastries as well. The staff was super friendly, and the facilities were great, too. I appreciated that they have two gender-neutral restrooms (one equipped with a urinal and the other with a changing table), and there's even a small merchandise rack if you want to pick up a spooky souvenir on your way out. I can't wait to go back and try more of their menu! Definitely check this place out if you're in the area.

I ordered an iced vanilla latte and it was okay, but the sweetener had a funny taste to it I'm not sure it was homemade, they did have a lot of options to choose from though. After a while the drink was melting there ended up being funny white stuff that coagulated at the top of the cup which freaked me out a bit. I'm not sure if it was syrup or something from the ice, but after that I couldn't finish it.

But maybe it was too late in the day. I will try to confirm that on my next visit. Sunny and spacious with high ceilings. One very clean bathroom. And it's right across the street from Bucket o Blood where I can go look at books and DVDs. Which is bad news on a caffeine high!

This place has a wonderful old school coffee cafe feel, modestly sized, but packs a punch in terms…read moreof coffee quality. If one is looking for straight coffee instead of "fru fru" stuff with syrups and all, this is the place to go, they excel at this. On our visit, they had a menu with no less than seven offerings for pourover, with a variety of origins and processing. Using Origami drippers (similar to V60), the baristas will carefully craft your cup to perfection. Our party sampled four of the offerings on our visit, and they were all outstanding. If espresso is your thing, there's only one on offer, Reprise's Space Flower espresso, a more traditional espresso but with a fruity twist, it was satisfying as a straight shot, but if you're looking for a distinctly third wave or highly fruity shot, this isn't it. I'd love for them to pull some of the pourover coffees as espresso, but alas. Bottom line, this was a great visit with some wonderful coffee. Highly recommended if you're in the area, and almost mandatory if you're a big pourover fan.

What made it even better was enjoying it on the back patio on a sunny day. It's a great spot to go study or read while knowing you'll have a great caffeinated drink to pull you through. Cannot recommend enough!

I took a sip. Yuck! I waited a few minutes, thinking, maybe it wasn't THAT bad, and tried another sip. Yuck! On my way out, I brought my drink back to the counter. It was still warm. I told the guy that the drink was terrible, that it tasted like warmed up Hersheys syrup. He took my drink and said, "Oh I'm sorry about that." I paused a second; he had nothing else to say. He didn't offer to make me a new drink. Didn't offer a pastry. Didn't offer a refund. I'm out $6 and I did not get to enjoy a treat. We're urged to support local, but experiences like this remind me why I like to go to the consistent chain that ALWAYS remakes my drink if there's a problem (which their rarely is), no questions asked. Totally disappointing. Would not go back because my drink was terrible and the customer service didn't exist.
