One was a hot latte with whole milk and the other was a Peppa Mint latte with whole milk, also hot. Our order came out in ten minutes, and I was ready to go! Both lattes were well-made! The taste was great, and the coffee beans were good. They definitely started our morning off right.

Oh this place is a gem! I signed up for a Shift Pilates membership recently and got a free…read morespecialty drink so I decided to try this place after my workout. I am not the biggest fan of café food but I was hungry. I got the Tiger Chai Latte and the breakfast burrito (add bacon). Both were diviiiine. Divine I tell ya. I thought I wouldn't like the chai latte because it would be too sweet but the first sip was just magical lol! It was perfectly balanced and so creamy and smooth. It tasted like sipping velvet. And none of the flavors were overpowering. I asked the barista how they got it so creamy and she said they steam it first and then she gave me a whole history lesson on chai tea vs chai lattes. Then the egg burrito.... It has a hash brown which gives it a crunch, plus it has sautéed onions and an aioli sauce that ties everything together. So so good. I came in to try the mushroom toast but changed to the egg burrito at the last minute but I'll be back here everyday after class for awhile lol. I will say the cafe is a little loud so I can't see myself actually working here because I need a less stimulating environment for the type of work I do. But many others were. It's still a good place for meeting up with someone for coffee or to grab a bite.

I ended up leaving with eight bags of single-origin beans from all over the world. Having worked my way through about half of them so far, I've been very impressed by the consistent quality and clean, vibrant flavors across the board. I'm a bit of a coffee-snob so this is saying something! While it's a bit on the pricey side, that's simply the reality of specialty coffee these days, and the craftsmanship here at least justifies it. I highly recommend supporting these wonderful folks--especially if you love lighter roasts with sweet, bright tasting notes. They have been the absolute perfect way to start my mornings!

It's like they've been making matcha latte's for the longest time and have perfected it. There was also no gritty bottom/unmixed matcha.

There was no line to order and we quickly received our drink. Very comfy and chill place to wfh or just enjoy a coffee/matcha with some friends.

The TOMATO BACON PIMENTO CHEESE PIE is an homage to all the Southern Mommas. It is simply divine in all its cheesy tomatoey glory. Edited to add: the SWEET POTATO AND CARAMELIZED COFFEE CAKE is heaven! It's light and pillowy. Not too sweet, not too crumbly. Whoever concocted the idea for this creation has to know this is the potential masterpiece of everyone's morning. I was just missing the coffee with it, ha!
