    Coffee is awesome and the employees are equally awesome. Pastries are delicious and fresh.

    A happy place. Nice people, great food and snacks, plus good books and it's dog-friendly. What more could you want?

    Coffee is not good, and baked goods are stale. Nicely located in a bookstore, but at the moment, it's a waste of a good location.

    This was some good coffee!…read more This was our first stop off the train from NYC. We needed a pick me up and energy for that infamous food crawl we were about to get into. So thankful it was in the quiet and quaint neighborhood of New Haven. Such a beautiful area. Very close to all the spots I had bookmarked. Cool coffee shop I gotta say. Spacious and clean. Just the actual vibe alone was relaxing. This is one of those locations where you can actually come sit and not be bothered. Few people inside were working on their laptops, some were just conversing with their friends. The barista was super friendly and worked fast. One thing I noticed and was wowed on was they serve wine as well. I mean how cool is that. Felt like I was at France for a minute, where the cafes serve coffee, tea and qwasonts during the day, and cocktails at night. Very chill. Can't thank them enough for how clean the bathroom was as well. All in all great coffee and service.

    Order a lavender honey latte to go. I didn't have to wait for it or anything so service was good…read morethere. But I couldn't find parking easily and the latte was just alright. Not a lot of favor and no sweet at all which I thought that was interesting. The server did over to add more honey but I opted out because I was in a rush. They seemed business though. A lot of people inside on a winter day doing work. Maybe try a coffee , but they're no Latte Pedaler, at least to me.
