    Nice little coffee shop located in downtown Manitowoc. Has all the drinks you would expect to see in a Barista operation like this at a reasonable price. Good saftey protocols being followed relative to Covid with good separation between the tables. Overall a great choice to enjoy your morning Java in a safe environment. Two thumbs up.

    Pleasant coffee shop with good coffees and lots of natural light in an expansive space. Bakery goods are quite tasty. Ideal location for sipping in solitude, enjoying a coffee with friends, are sipping while getting some work done. Also an enjoyable place for meetings. Moderate prices, but they do charge a credit card swipe fee (including on Apple Pay).

    My "usual"

    Groovy cafe/bakery/restaurant/gift shop near downtown Manitowoc. Best parts, IMHO, are the coffee and the pastries which Jen herself makes on site. Lots of seating, mellow music, free wifi... I'm a regular.

    Large Latte, Small Hot Chocolate

    We went on a Wednesday morning on our way out of the area. It wasn't busy at all; there were a few people seated already and enjoying their drinks, but there was no line. I ordered a large plain latte, and my friend got a small hot chocolate (both to-go). Both were really good, although they were definitely steamed on the hotter side. The girl that took our order was friendly, but she was a bit soft spoken. We struggled to hear her, but I understand that could be for a number of reasons. My only real issue is that there didn't seem to be a menu posted anywhere. We understood that they would have any "typical" coffee shop drink, so ordering wasn't too much of an issue for us, despite this. The building itself was really cute. They have lots of things for sale, such as baked goods and T-shirts. If I ever find myself in Manitowoc again I'd definitely stop in again and stay for a while!

    Stuffed green pepper soup

    Its always a treat coming here. I typically get something new every time i go and haven't been dissapointed. Wonderful cheesecake and other baked goods. I skipped dinner tonight so i got to try the stuffed green pepper soup. Great taste and huge portion! Great time to catch up with friends and use wifi!

    Peeps coffee. Yummy and fun

    It can be more of a friendly environment with staff. Prices are a little above average.

    Hate this place. Coffee is not for true coffee drinkers. Favored towards teens and hipsters.

    Ambience and Experience: This little coffee shop is located in what used to be an old auto mechanic…read moreshop. They have done a great job of flipping the space. Retro wallpaper and vibe give this place unique and quirky charm while the two glass garage doors open up to provide for an decently sized (and relaxingly breezy) space. Employees were super friendly and chatty (in a good way), they shared some insights and tips about exploring the town while I waited for my coffee. Super helpful and welcoming while also being down to Earth. Drinks: We mostly came here for coffee and to chill for a bit. They offered coffee flights here so my wife was sold to stop and try them. We like flights because you get to sample more of the menu without committing to just one thing. After the flights, I did also try a separate flavored latte off of the menu has well. The lattes were not too sweet and the flavor profiles fit the espresso base without overpowering the coffee flavors. My favorite out of all of them were the Huckleberry Latte and the Black Sesame Foam Latte (The Goth I think is what they called it). Fun little shop to stop and grab a drink and bite to eat. Bonus - they are only 1/2 mile away from Lake Michigan and a local park. Park and grab a drink to go and explore the beach!

    Excellent Açaí bowls and other tasty dishes. Outstanding coffee selection. Pleasant staff and…read morefriendly service.
