SUPER CUTE CUPS! Coffee is okay. I forgot I've been here in the past, so wanted to write a review…read moreto jog my memory in the future. They now change $0.25 for to-go cups, which I guess is a Santa Cruz ordinance. Can you imagine them doing that elsewhere? Oooooh my city would make a killing off that! Husband got his usual cold brew ($6.25 inc cup fee). No complaints except they don't fill it to the brim even if you don't want room for milk/cream. I got a tiramisu latte ($8.25 inc cup fee). I could see why they call it a tiramisu latte because of the mascarpone foam and the lady finger. It was decent, but I think I would have enjoyed a standard vanilla latte more. I also personally didn't like how the cold foam dripped down the side of the cup because it got all over my hands! As a former barista, I always made sure my drinks were clean before handing them out.

The flavors just meshed together and were so good I was super happy to see they had gluten free treats, in a separate space than the gluten ones, so I grabbed the cranberry polenta pastry - that was also heavenly!

And not just any dark roast, it's called Sweet Italian. Not quite bitter or burnt. Just bold, rich, and exactly what I needed If you love coffee that actually has depth (not gently toasted), come here, this spot saved the weekend.

One of the things I actually love most about this location is that the baristas always seem like they're having fun and enjoying being there. This space has such a positive atmosphere and the workers always being giddy behind the bar make the space even better! They've also always been incredibly sweet to my daughter whenever we come in. I obviously can't speak to someone else's experience, but I really doubt anyone was laughing at you personally, it very easily could have just been an unrelated conversation happening behind the counter. I've only ever had positive experiences here and think the staff deserves some credit for creating such a joyful environment in a world where we are often told not to!
