There's a lot of students studying with a large amount of open seating. The front has a garage door open to let in some fresh air while keeping it cool enough inside. Would definitely come back if stopping by in San Marcos!

Coffee is really good quality. Got it half sweet. It was a good amount to still really enjoy more…read moreof the coffee bean taste right over the sweetener that was used. Matcha was the reason for the 1 star off. I could not really taste the matcha itself. Does not taste terrible, but did not stand out. I think it would be better if there was more of the matcha itself in the drink. Ambiance is really nice and the decor is modern and high end vibe. Parking is limited with street parking, but doable.

I got a honey butter chicken biscuit which was very flavorful and a Mango Green Tea Lemonade. Both were delicious. It did take a little bit for us to get our items from when we ordered so might not be the best option for someone in a rush, but if you have time to sit, it's a great spot as the atmosphere is calm and friendly, and the staff is also very kind.

Theor seasonal menu is amazing and i stuck to it both visits here. For example a miso infused latte foam? It worked. Boy did it work. The orange flavored cold foam drink came with orange zest on top for an added punch and aesthetic. The store is awesome too. Big and bright windows looking towards a foresty park and easy parking to boot. I spent some time speaking with the manager (maybe yhe owner) and they were really nice and definitely coffee people. I don't live around here but will make it a point to stop in every time i visit the area. Truly a spectacular little coffe house.

We took a moment and then ordered an iced vanilla latte and a drip coffee and sat outside to enjoy the porch and fenced in picnic table area. Though we chose to sit outside there was plenty of seating inside near the register and then a larger room past the 2 restrooms they had. Parking lot in the back hold probably 6-8 cars so be aware of that full you'll need to move somewhere else. Loved the shop was in an old house that provided a quaint charm to it. Would for sure come back!

The latte was not extraordinary, tasted like a typical vanilla latte- I wish it was slightly more vanilla forward but besides that, great. I asked about their house special Lambda latte but the barista did say it was really sweet but based on the latte she gave me, I think the lambda latte wouldn't have been that sweet so maybe I'll try it next time.

We visited for Easter brunch. We began with tabouli and hummus appetizers and enjoyed both the traditional and smoked salmon Eggs Benedict. Eggs were cooked to perfection and the silky hollandaise were flavorful. We toasted with the pomegranate mimosas. Everything was perfectly balanced and the service was friendly and attentive. It was a very pleasant experience and we look forward to going back to explore the rest if the menu. Such a great surprise in the heart of San Marcos, Tx.

I tried my friends Blueberry crepes (blintzes?) and they had only one flavor: ricotta.... not even sweetened. I myself ordered the savory crepes, and as I'm staring at this picture months later, I'm trying to remember any taste or experience from the meal. My mind is blank. The coffees are good though! It'd be 3 stars just for the food but the beautiful backyard gave it an extra. Great place for pics and coffee

Second time here. If solely based on the first trip, 5 stars, all the way. Service was spot on…read more The coffee was hot, and the breakfast quesadilla was to die for. Second trip, little less so. Maybe because it's a Tuesday morning and they are aren't slammed but everything was just a little less on point. The breakfast sandwich was tasty, but lacked flavor. The sweet potatoes were cold. Not just room temp, but cold. Even my cortado was colder than I expected. While I will likely give them another shot, my experience left me crestfallen.
