They have a great assortment of drinks you can choose from. I decided to do a Wild Maine Blueberry Iced Tea. When they mentioned molasses as a sweetener option, I knew I had to try it. As a result, the drink had the perfect amount of sweetness, but also a nice blueberry flavor! I paired it with a pumpkin chocolate chip cookie and it was the perfect combo on a sunny fall day :) I highly recommend checking this great little spot out!! :)

While we didn't try the coffee, it looked like it would be delicious. I can say that the matcha was lovely. It is not sweet (which I love) but allows for you to add flavors or sweeteners of your own (which my wife loves). The service was friendly and efficient. We weren't in a hurry so we found a table and hung out for a bit. You can tell that many people use this spot for studying or working remotely so tables seem like they may be hard to come by if it's busy. The inside was super cute and it's in a great location. If we're ever in the area again, we'd definitely stop in.

Thankfully, we found Flexit because the Matcha was really delicious! My wife and I both ordered an Iced Lavender Matcha and the drinks came out quickly and efficiently. It seemed like a cute place to hang out and do some working/study sessions. Plus the location is perfect. Plenty of parking nearby and lots of other shops to explore post-caffeine. We did not order food during this visit so I cannot comment on the food. However, I will say that it seemed like they had a great selection of food as well as a grab-n-go section with lots of items from the cafe and other local vendors. If we're ever back in Ellsworth, we will 100% be back.

The sweet people working the counter, cooking & serving us were so accommodating & considerate. They gave our 1 year old crayons and a little baby fork to eat with. The atmosphere was perfect, it was cozy, inviting & to top it off, the fresh baked goods we purchased as we left were delicious.

My home fries reminded me of my dads growing up literal boiled potatoes cut up zero seasoning and grilled heated but with no char, I liked them prob from a nostalgia standpoint my hubs didn't enjoy
