There's plenty of space, so it didn't feel cramped at all, which I really appreciated. It's also located in the quaint Tosa Village, which is a plus too. We both ordered the Verano and it was incredible! Definitely something I'd come back for. The barista was friendly and available to answer any questions without making us feel rushed. Overall, a really nice, low-key place if you're looking for good coffee and a comfortable environment to sit for a while.

When I first pulled up to the building it was 7:30am, and they were open. But the windows somehow made it look dark inside, and I literally had to put my nose to the glass to see any activity. Otherwise I might have thought they were closed and kept going (special glass that cuts down glare inside?). Once inside there are several different areas for seating; the bar with stools, the front windows ledge with more stools, or the center area that has larger tables for various size groups. Lots of natural light from the front windows. The interior design, is a bit industrial, well lit, and welcoming. Things were neat and clean. Inside there was a short line to the counter which was right ahead. Took a few minutes to arrive at counter and order. Got a pleasant greeting and help with the order. I ordered the usual London Fog Tea Latte (little lavender,little vanilla, and extra foam). They didn't have much in the way of pastries/bakery. They were out of the Coffee Cake, but suggested the Apple Galette supplied by Miss Molly Bakery. They don't have the ability to warm up the bakery, which was a little disappointment. They took their time steeping the tea, which is a good thing. It came with a nice head of foam, had great flavor, and was the right temperature (148F). Texture-wise it could have been a little creamier. The Apple Galette was amazing. The crust was flakey and nicely sprinkled with course sugar. The apples had great flavor and were moist. The atmosphere was relaxed and most people were having quiet conversations. There's a very chill cat (Sugar) roaming around the place, and occasionally keeping people company. Not my favorite, but definitely a place that I would return to.

It's a very cool space, and a great spot to get some work done, surf the web, read a book or just hang out with some friends. Parking can be challenging since it's on a major road. There are quite a few coffee shops now within a few blocks in that area, but this is another strong addition to the bustling coffee scene in Tosa.

Special shoutout to Adam, who always has such a great attitude. The lattes were made to perfection, and the space is large but still feels very casual, with plenty of small seating clusters that allow for quiet conversations. This morning, as we were approaching the counter, my friend was approached by a man. It turned out he was panhandling. It was an awkward situation. My friend, who is super compassionate, had a brief conversation with him and ended up giving him some money. I'm not opposed to charity, but I don't expect that to happen inside a coffee shop. This can be a sensitive topic, but I believe it's not something customers should expect when they are inside a business, and it could potentially keep people from coming back. Like I said, this is a sensitive topic for some people. The business owner needs to know that this is happening, and I'm planning to follow up.

We were a group of seven and were able to find a couple of tables to pull together. The staff have always been super nice and helpful. They make excellent tea lattes. I usually go with a London Fog, and they do a very nice job with it, even adding some latte art. If I could make one suggestion, it would be offering a 16 oz option. They currently have 12 oz mugs, and sometimes I'm just looking for a little more. A tiny issue. Thanks!

I was greeted promptly by the friendly staff, which I appreciated. They were extremely patient as I perused the lunch menu. I settled for the Chicken Bacon Avocado Melt. For the price, I found this to be a tremendous value, especially with the addition of chips. It hit all the notes I would expect from a Chicken Melt. One thing keeping this from being a 5 star was the cleanliness of the dining area. There were a number of dirty tables and debris on the floor. One note of caution: Parking can be tricky here. Be prepared in case you come during the morning rush.

Their bags of coffee have gone down in size and up in price unfortunately. I get it - the market, growing conditions, etc. Just odd that a bag of their coffee is more at the cafe than in the grocery stores. The staff are friendly though and the cafe gives you the perfect coffeehouse vibes. Chatter fills you as you walk in and people are catching up over their drinks. Not a fan of the small parking lot here. You're lucky to get a spot and to get out of the lot with traffic nearby. But, if you can walk, that would be ideal.
