You walk into the beautiful brick building, wood floors and it smells scrumptious. You are welcomed by the cheery staff and an assortment of handmade, locally crafted items from candles to crocheted items. Up toward the counter you have a long glass case to view all the yummy eats from egg and cheese scones, cookies, HOMEMADE BREADS, and I got the cinnamon roll with cream cheese icing. Beverage wise, they serve the basics, coffee, lattes, mochas, teas and hot chocolate. The ladies/owners were super friendly and treated us like we were family. There is a large area with tables and chairs that would be great for conversing, working, or a meeting. They even have a cool "back entrance" to the cute woman's clothing boutique Backwards Boutique. Will definitely be going back. A new shiny gem you must try!!

I…read morenever found the right entrance but that was fine as the young waiter said you could pick up a chair and crash through the glass to find your way in if you wanted. Well I wanted but entered through the stage. I sat outside in the shade and it was very comfortable and surprisingly not that noisy with traffic, much to my delight. Weather was great! I had lovely service and although I was dressed haphazardly as I only brought winter cloths in tights and a shirt I picked up at a secondhand store as, surprise, it's hitting the high 70's today ! I ordered tomato bisque and a side of French bread. I asked for balsamic oil and was met with blank stares from the young man and his trainee but he was good and quickly asked for an explanation of what it was and after my disbelief that an Italian place didn't have it, I was served a little bowl(without oil) of a balsamic reduction. Well, that was alright for me and waited for hue bread and soup while I eavesdropped and a watch the college kids walk by. The tomato bisque with bread, olive oil, a mountain of garlic and a balsamic reduction soon was served and I did not go away hungry!! Lovely place!

The sauce is creamy and rich and I savored every bite. I also had a vanilla laté which came in a fun mug that seems hand crafted. My friend enjoyed the BLT and her matcha laté as well. Our waitress was very kind and attentive. Very sweet girl who is newer and doing a fantastic job. There were so many great things on the menu and will definitely come back and try another dish. The photos on Yelp seem to be for a previous business. Unfortunately I did not snap any photos while I was there but here is a few shots of the dinner menu.

Stopped in for a coffee and breakfast bagel on our trip back from Wisconsin…read more The coffee was good and hot with plenty of flavors to add if that's your thing but I like mine bold and black. Good stuff. The breakfast bagel with Swiss, sausage and egg was huge and served extremely hot but lacked flavor and since we were anxious to continue our trip home I forgot to grab salt, pepper and other condiments (my bad) it was a bit flavorless. Super nice staff and a cool place to visit.

It's a place that feels like a big chain, but it's just very modern and techie that makes good coffee. My kids loved getting the hot chocolate flight and I enjoyed my Halloween themed coffee flight as well. My husband got the pistachio latte and really enjoyed it, and both of us liked our scones. The only thing that really really threw me off was opening the door and instantly being hit by a wave of something that smelled like a hairdresser's place. I don't think I've ever been to a coffee shop with decent coffee that didn't smell like really good coffee. I don't know if it's the spaces nearby (it's in a strip) or the fact that it's a workspace and so the smell dissipates, but it was very offputting to have that smell in a coffee shop. Other than that, it was a great experience.

Our food was hot and the everything bagel sandwich is really good! The spicy sausage burrito was a bit on the small side, but that's ok; we made sure to order 2 the next time lol. It had good flavor though! My matcha latte was perfect! It had the right amount of sweet and was mixed well. The Oreo blender was also delicious! It was blended together really well and the mixture of sweet vs "bitter" is great! Service: We went through the drive-thru and the service was fast! Not only were they efficient, but they were polite and didn't cut us off while we were placing our order. They were patient as well, seeing as we had never been there before and had no idea what to try lol. They greeted us with smiles when we approached the window and made sure that our items were carefully handed to us without making us feel like we needed to hurry up. Ambiance: There's not really much to say about the ambiance since it's a drive-thru only location. There is plenty of room in the drive-thru which is a plus! It's kept clean of any debris and the lawn area is well maintained.
