I visited this cafe for the first time on a Friday around 11:30 AM. Although they open at 11, it was already bustling when I arrived. The patio sounded lively, but I found seating available indoors. It's worth noting they have their own parking lot behind the cafe, which is a rare gem in this area - something I wish I'd known beforehand (there is signage that I missed).
The cafe is set up like a charming little house, with a welcoming entryway that instantly makes you feel at ease. Inside, the space feels open and inviting, and my attention was immediately drawn to their display of cube croissants in a variety of flavors. Beyond that, they offer flat croissants, mochi cookies, brownies, banana pudding, and more. Posters around the store highlight their extensive drink menu, which adds to the excitement, but also makes you realize just how much work the staff must handle daily.
When I approached the counter to order, I noticed they also serve bingsu and Basque cheesecake, which was a pleasant surprise. Despite being only two employees managing everything, including in-store and delivery orders, they were working tirelessly. I had to wait a bit, but the female employee took the time to acknowledge me twice and was so apologetic, which made the wait more than bearable.
I ordered three drinks:
Black Sesame Latte: This was my favorite, with a deep, rich flavor. 100% would order again.
Strawberry Matcha Latte: Tasty with a great strawberry flavor and enjoyable fruit chunks, though the matcha could have been a bit stronger for someone like me who enjoys it daily.
Pistachio Kream Spanner: Thick and indulgent with plenty of nuts, though the pistachio flavor felt slightly artificial, and I think it would be better with less sweetness.
To my surprise, the same sweet employee brought over two complimentary Basque cheesecakes as a way of apologizing for the wait. This thoughtful gesture really stood out and made the already excellent service feel extraordinary.
I'm so excited to return and try more of their offerings. Considering they've only been open for 2 and a half weeks, the quality and experience were fantastic. I hope they stick around because it's hard to find such a cute cafe in this area, especially one with such reasonable prices for the quality. I thoroughly enjoyed my visit! read more
