I work in Mechanicsville and have been on the hunt for a good coffee shop (that's not a chain). I…read morewas excited to find this place and stopped in today to pick up coffee for me and a coworker. I arrived during their quieter time, just after 12:30pm, so there's were no lines and I had the opportunity to talk to one of the baristas about latte options. I decided on a peppermint white mocha latte and got an iced vanilla latte with almond milk for my coworker. I also picked up a raspberry muffin, which was staring me in the face, lol! The shop is pretty spacious, with lots of seating (sofas and comfy chairs, too), and I could see why people would want to hang out while enjoying their purchases. The staff was super friendly. We both enjoyed our drinks and the muffin was tasty, too (a bit better after heating it up a bit). I'm so glad I found such a cute coffee shop near work!

Very cute vibes. Everyone working was so nice and they had some really fun latte flavors.read more

We went in 30 minutes later because we didn't receive a text and we were told that she called our name 15 minutes ago and that there was something wrong with the phone lines. She did seat us immediately. We decided to order the Crab-Ocado Scrambler and their Shrimp and Grits. The Crab-Ocado had avocado that had seen better days. Everything else was ok. The shrimp and grits had too many ingredients, but that's because we didn't read what it had. We thought it was the traditional shrimp and grits, so technically we didn't like it because it had more things than we wanted. Overall, our experience here was not great, but we are always willing to try again and when we do I will update the review. We will definitely steer away from seafood for breakfast.
