He insists that their cold brew with caramel is one of the best drinks out there so he got that as well as another for my boyfriend. I got one of their summer special: raspberry mango matcha which was so delicious and refreshing. The flavors of raspberry and mango paired very well with the creaminess of the matcha. I did take a sip of the cold brew and it is definitely better than some of the cold brews that I've had in Tacoma, Seattle, Bellevue, and other areas. They also get pretty busy which shows that they are a great local choice for good coffee, other drinks, and treats! The coffee stand is a good size and the menu is kinda hard to see from far away but once you get closer, you can see better. I do wish they list their prices but I also understand why they don't. Service was also efficient and professional. Going to make a few spots here every now and then as I want to try out their other options! The energy drinks look good too.

It's really ancoffee place with food and is generally pretty busy. It's in an odd location, feeling kind of industrially located behind a Safeway on a side street, but once inside it feels just like you'd hope it would, a casual relaxed sit down cafe that seems quite pooular. The service was a bit slow when we visited but it was kind of busy. The food we got was decent, nothing spectacular but certainly nothing to complain about. Just reasonably good breakfast fare that is better than most you'd find in the area. It won't be life changing but if you are nearby it is a good spot to hop into and get yourself a bite and coffee. Happy eating from John Seeto!

When we walked in I noticed some table games in the front area and table books so I was hopeful, it seemed pleasant. We went to sit in a booth but the empty tables were still dirty. While we sat we decided we would order, we couldn't find menus and kept waiting for a waiter, then someone finally told us ,after we asked , that we had to order in front! I ordered a BLT on a GF bread, I had to pay $2 more for gluten free! I expected a large sandwich for the price, like most the restaurants we've eaten at have been, but this sandwich was small, like a tiny one made at home! The bacon was burnt to a crisp and black, and the bread was super dry, the whole sandwich was dry and tasteless and a disappointment. When it came the side of pickle was missing and I had to ask for it. The only good part of my meal was the chips and my Italian soda! A huge waste of $18 + $$

The location is very bright and cozy. They have plenty of seats and tables to accommodate solo or larger parties. One of my favorite spots of the shop is the wall of coloring pages done. I also asked them if they allow dogs and they do allow well behaved dogs and owners must clean up after their pets if any accidents occur. The staff welcome you inside once you step in. The cashier and barista were both courteous and efficient. I ordered a 24oz guava mango smoothie and it was made to perfection. The consistency of the smoothie was the best and you can taste both the guava and mango. I look forward to visiting them more often as they are one of the best coffee spots.
