Now parking.. not sure where I should park, but maybe it's behind the shop or possibly it's best to park on the street by the houses, who's to say lol. So after I figured out parking, my first experience was great. Service was nice. They didn't take too long and the pastries, coffee and sandwiches were so good I had to come back before my flight. But the second time, the service was sooooooooooo slow. They didn't care at all to help me and finally after making one drink I had to ask for the rest of my order to be made. Not to mention one of the baristas left to give someone a drink in the back and didn't come back for at least 5-10 mins - I don't know where this mystery person was but the sure must have been important because the barista knew damn well there was a line of people waiting to be served but apparently didn't give a damn. It felt very purposeful and quite frankly rude but I cant speak on their intentions. Great food. Great drinks. Good atmosphere. I had to take give 3 stars tho for service. Sadly that sucked.

I believe the workers work for tips, at least Ja'Lila does who served us. During our hour there we observed a mix of folks coming in. Some were obviously regulars chatting it up with Ja'Lila while they sipped their drink. Another couple on a road trip stopped in on their way to the east coast for some coffees and to use the WiFi. Some were in and out. Steady flow. Everyone treated with respect and dignity whether you made a donation or not. Donations are pay what you want. I'm not a coffee drinker but my sister said it's good! I got hot chocolate. The hot chocolate is homemade and I got fresh whipped cream which was also homemade. Delicious! Can you get that at Starbucks? Just asking I wouldn't know. I no longer lived in South Bend but if I did this would be my new spot. My sister does however and she's already been back before I had a chance to post my review. If you're a local and you remember the old VanBuren grocery store this is the spot!

I didn't have anything to eat so I cannot speak for the food, but the coffee was delicious! I got the seasonal latte (forgetting the name now, but it was orange flavored), and it was super unique and yummy!

It was a really cute and communal vibe, just bring headphones if you plan to get work done!

The ambience is very industrial business lunch meets Starbucks vibe. They have WiFi and lots of games to pass time that we noticed on shelving. My friend chose the Raspberry white mocha iced and a roasted pepper soup and grilled cheese. I chose a hot vanilla coconut latte and a sausage egg and cheddar panini. I am so bummed I did not take pictures per my normal! The panini was boxed to go, very generous in portion. Delicious. The roasted pepper soup was also good, very filling with a thick bisque like texture and lots of flavor. Her grilled cheese was a standard grilled cheese, gooey and fresh! Drinks: There was such beautiful pictures of lattes etc online, I received mine in a to go cup with no lid. They served our food at the table so I'm not sure why that happened. I consider myself a very versed coffee connoisseur, I had high hopes for this cafe! The latte was more milk and not enough espresso. It was like it was a shot short. The flavor of coconut was lacking to the point of non existent . I am positive I had an oops drink of the day. However I did taste my friend's raspberry white mocha, and the raspberry was so bright with great espresso flavor. She also was served in a paper to go cup instead of mug. I want to note, we loved the cafe! The cups were not a deal breaker! The latte was my only issue, otherwise I would definitely recommend this place for nice cafe experience!
