This place is so cozy and cute. The coffee is decadent. This is our new favorite place. We got carmel lattes with oat milk.

Came here for the first time yesterday while my friend and I were in New Buffalo celebrating her…read morebirthday and enjoying everything the area had to offer. Unfortunately, from the moment we walked in and looked at the menu, the woman with purple hair at the counter greeted us with extremely unpleasant energy. She rushed us through our entire order, wasn't friendly or welcoming, and was extremely difficult to connect with. What stood out to me most was that after our interaction, I noticed her greeting other customers who didn't look like us with a noticeably warmer energy. We ordered two sandwiches, two drinks, and two pastries, spending almost $40, yet the experience lacked any real sense of kindness, consideration, or basic human decency. Because I was being rushed, I actually had to get back in line a second time to purchase something I had missed during our initial order. We were especially disappointed because this was supposed to be a nice experience while celebrating my friend's birthday. We were grateful to see vegan options on the menu, and the space itself is beautiful, but unfortunately, it felt like the energy and level of hospitality inside depended on the color of your skin. That experience left a lasting impression, and sadly, we won't be returning.

Hospitality is a large part of the food service industry. I understand it's busy, perhaps there…read morewas a staff meeting that went south as we got there at opening. However, a welcoming hello or acknowledgement of a "good morning" is necessary if you want to retain business. I said something like thanks for working today, those donuts like really nice, to three different people, one of them the owner with zero response. I expect it from the post office, but not when buying overpriced overhyped donuts. The chocolate croissant had almost no chocolate in it. The other donuts were ok, coffee cake bland, spent $100. Still tipped. The vibe of the place is angry artist. Won't be back.
