We really liked that they use single origin coffee unlike Starbucks, lol. The space feels modern yet comfortable, with plenty of windows for people-watching or enjoying the nice weather. They offer both indoor seating and an outdoor patio, making it a great spot to sip your favorite coffee, tea, or espresso. They also have a nice selection of breakfast items, including pastries and muffins that pair perfectly with your drink. Everything tasted fresh and well prepared. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and created a positive atmosphere from the moment we walked in. As an added bonus, they also have a drive-thru if you're in a hurry. Overall, it was a great experience, and I'd definitely stop by again.

The parking right in front isn't the best but there is ample parking in the shops surrounding the business. The environment was lowkey with several patrons on laptops or catching up with friends. I had no idea what I wanted but definitely wanted to try their drinks and a biscuit. I ended up having them customize an iced caramel latte and ordering a cheddar and cheese biscuit. Everything tasted amazingggg. The biscuit was fresh and I didn't feel heavy after eating it. The latte had the perfect amount of sweetness. Both items complemented each other well and the pricing was very fair. They do sell their own coffee and it seemed like everyone had a cup. I think one of the better things about it is the drive-thru for people who don't want to get out the car. I am confident enough to use the drive-thru now that I have a go-to order. I rate this place a 10/10 and I will definitely be back to try some of the pastries and different coffee flavors.

I will stay that the staff is super kind and polite, as well as attentive to orders. For example, on one trip I was behind a large order so they walked my coffee out to me while I waited. In re to traffic it can be hard to cross University if they are busy. Their coffee is closer to a light medium roast (not my fave) but they have other options too like frozen drinks, bagels and other items. I recommend giving them a shot just bc the staff are so nice.

That was very good and strong coffee. I noticed that there were some regulars coming and going. A large group of men gathered together at one table to have a bible study together. I loved seeing that. I noticed they had a wall of tee shirts and other things for sale. I loved the high ceilings. The decor was nice & cozy.

He said he was from Rome and he was very kind. Our total for the two coffees was $6.50. Great Price! For a quality beverage so glad we stopped.

Pulled up to the drive-thru around 7:30 this morning to order coffee. I had never been here before,…read moreso I was super excited to try it and support a local coffee spot. I also loved the idea of the drive-up ordering--it seemed really personable. Buuuut... when I pulled up to the window, I saw a lady inside talking to someone who was sitting down drinking coffee. I smiled when she looked at me, but she looked away and continued talking to the customer inside. Mind you, they appeared to have already ordered and been served. After sitting there with no acknowledgment, I honestly started wondering if they were even open. I checked the posted hours and saw that they definitely were. When she finally came to the window, I said, "Good morning," and got no response. Still confused, I asked if they were open. She said yes, pointed to the sign, and told me the hours were posted there. I explained that I wasn't sure because when I pulled up, I wasn't acknowledged at all. Her response was that she was "in the middle of a conversation." Like...what?! I completely understand being in the middle of a conversation, but a smile, a wave, or even a quick "Good morning, I'll be right with you" would have made the entire interaction completely different. At that point, I politely told her I'd rather order somewhere else. She insisted it was okay to order, and I politely insisted that we'd rather go elsewhere. It was just a really weird experience, especially since it was my first time there and I had been genuinely excited to try the place. I couldn't bring myself to look past the passive-aggressive interaction that felt completely unnecessary at 7:30 in the morning. People should be greeted with a smile--coffee starts our day! I'm honestly sad to leave a negative review for a small local coffee shop that I didn't even get the chance to try. Maybe it was just an off morning, but as a first-time customer, it was very disappointing to say the least.

It's not too sweet, has just the right amount of richness, and the blueberry flavor is definitely present without overpowering the other elements. I rate it a 4.5 out of 5. A strawberry or marshmallow cold foam would make it a 5 out of 5. One of the first things I noticed was how much seating there is. I can imagine this being a popular spot for study sessions or friend hangouts. I give the ambiance a 4 out of 5. A pop of color or vibrant addition would increase the ambiance for sure. The menu has a variety of options, even non-matcha drinks. The staff are kind and the service is quick. I highly recommend Taiyo Matcha for your next matcha craving or friend gathering!
