The grounds are still at the bottom of the cup and the flavor is deep and magnificent in a way that American coffee is decidedly not! Their pastries are just the right size for something sweet to offset the coffee experience and the service is friendly and conversational. Nice place and I'll be back regularly!

Enter Tara, who said she'd try her best to make something special. She delivered an adorable bear on my drink! She said she might be able to do better, but I loved her effort and enthusiasm. My friend and I headed outside to enjoy our drinks on the patio. Several minutes later, Tara came outside carrying another latte. She had PERFECTED the latte bear and gave it to us for free! She made my entire day. Thank you to Tara for the amazing art and for going above and beyond in your customer service!! I can't wait to go back for my next coffee and hope she's working when I do.

I tried the Lavender Blu, which was a unique flavor combination--interesting, but I would probably try a different coffee next time. The breakfast sandwich was really good and flavorful, and I was happy with the quality overall. The staff was friendly, and the interior had a really nice aesthetic. It is on the pricier side--I paid $24 for my order--but overall, it was a pleasant experience.

They offer their standard line up of coffee and teas as well as monthly drink specials. They do not have their breakfast sandwiches but do have their pastry case. I ordered the Sweet Honey Bee latte which is one of my absolute favorite flavored lattes. My husband got the London Fog with he also thoroughly enjoyed. I got the vanilla syrup ($19) to enjoy at home. It's a bit thicker but you can see the fresh vanilla bean and has great taste.

The veggie omelette was alright and the banana nut caramel french toast was nothing extraordinary. There are too many other fine breakfast spots to return here.
