Yet, the ambience inside has a cozy and inviting home presence with a comfortable leather couch, festive home decor & furniture, and friendly staff. Jesalyn, our server, was very amicable, calm, professional, and recommended the Winter Wonderland seasonal coffee with chocolate & hazelnut flavors. We both ordered it and spent about two hours there. Service was efficient yet peaceful even when there was a flow of traffic after we were served. Time flew fast there and yet the environment always maintained a sense of serenity despite the flow of people coming in the coffeehouse. There are different vendors with many items to select for purchase from art to accessories. The colorful bags with the smiley faces promoting mental health awareness caught my eye at one of the vendor areas there. I love that the coffeehouse is veteran owned, decorated for Christmas, and has an eclectic mix of handmade items and local art pieces. This is definitely a local business & coffeehouse to visit again in the future.

What a pleasant surprise! Love this place!…read more As soon as you walk in, you are greeted by friends and family with smiles. This coffee shop is definitely a home away from home kind of feel. From leather sofas, cute table sets, meeting rooms, and Christmas decor, you get a real sense of peace and comfort. The seasonal coffee with chocolate undertones was a delight and was what I needed from such a long drive. We spent over two hours here taking photos and seeing family. The staff here are welcoming and so generous. The business supports Veterans and offers military discounts! Can't wait to meet Eric, the owner someday to thank him for his service and as a fire fighter. True American hero.

The business supports local venders and community by selling a variety of favorites such as cute smiley face hand bags, jam, mugs, art work, photos, cards, and other gifts. Suggest stopping in for a coffee or setting up your workspace and sitting for a while.

We finally had an opportunity to stop in and try this place out…read more They have outside seating and some comfortable couches inside. We started with the Bori bori coffee, a mixed fruit smoothie, guava pastry, cheese and guava pastry and a cookie. Service was quick and everyone was friendly. We asked for our pastries to be warmed up because we like them like that. They were good and very fresh. I was hopping for more guava and that's the only reason I rated the place a 4. We are used to having our guava pastries full of guava, that when you take a bite it spills over on the sides! It is nice place to come in and have a coffee and pastry, they also have the lunch truck outside which is great because we have had their food and it's full of flavor. They had other Spanish pastries, so maybe on my next visit we will try them out!

My first visit there was to meet with an old friend I hadn't seen in many years who moved back to Hampstead. I thought the meet up would include a beverage and brief conversation, but the cozy nature of this beautiful coffee shop lured us into hours of conversation and a most delicious breakfast. I highly recommend the banana toast; it is now my favorite morning meal, and the Blue Cloud latte was indeed a drink from the heavens. I am looking forward to visiting Drift very often.

I asked a lot of questions and the lady spent a lot of time with me. I ended up choosing the Kalbi with Hawaiian Cole slaw and macaroni salad. The portion size was big enough for three meals.

I liked everything except the smoothie. I don't know if it was the lilikoi or POG or both, but it had a strong artificial sweetener flavor for my taste. The Malasada was essentially a yeast doughnut with sugar sprinkled on top. The Macapuno waffle was soft, very sweet, and had a starchy like texture from the Ube. It was a little hard to eat since it would get crumbly when I tried to eat it with my fork. Served with dried toasted coconut flakes and lots of coconut whipped cream. Loco Moco was delicious. Gravy was already on the rice and not on the meat. Would be better if they gave extra gravy so I'll have to ask for that next time! They asked how I wanted my eggs cooked. I asked for medium, but it was cooked a little bit more than medium. Eggs were seasoned with nori komi furikake (Shirakiku brand/dried seaweed, black-and-white sesame seeds)- love! Ube hush puppies were the bomb. Crispy and sweet. Definitely worth a visit!

Grilled cheese was a let down, as well as both the sides. My turkey specialty on an everything bagel was good, I really enjoyed it. The husband gave the ham, egg, and cheese a 4/5 and the little gave the pastry a 10. Negatives: staff doesn't clean the tables, every one was dirty so we had to clean up one ourselves. The place as a whole needs a deep clean. Electrical pipes have a good amount of caked on dust accumulated on it.

Today I asked for a bacon, egg and cheese on a croissant! It took a few minutes, as they make to order, and like I said, I was early for a meeting.
