I popped in on a weekday morning and it was bustling with people. The line wasn't long and I got helped quickly. The person taking my order was friendly and offered solid information comparing their chai to the London fog. He proceeded to ask me about my day and seem like he actually cared. I wasn't sticking around, but there were open tables. Things were clean. They also have plenty of room to sit outside if you'd like. There are pastries and some cold drinks in a case. There aren't a lot of gluten free options, but they did have one muffin I could have had. The drink preparation takes a bit of time. There were people already waiting and many of their drinks have special preparations (pour overs, steeping the tea). Have a minute to wait. I had the London Fog and the baristas advice held true. The flavor was worth the wait and I will surely go back. They roast their own coffee and make you feel welcome. Plus, there's a bookstore across the street. Love all around.

It's a nice coffee shop. When I arrived the line was very long and not moving very quickly. I…read moreneeded to grab a stool from the side bar while I waited. Staff is friendly. Coffee is good. The space is large and open so you don't feel like you're BFFs with all the patrons. But that means you're missing the cozy atmosphere. I would drop in again if I were in the neighborhood and there aren't too many people waiting.

First time visit, spent nearly $100 on pastries. Worth it. Very pricy place, but nothing we bought…read morewas less than great. Better than the Vegas restaurants for many similar items, and still not as expensive. The best macarons you will find anywhere in your life. Gorgeous cakes. Many items were unmarked so be prepared to ask questions. Obviously a small business that works very hard to achieve a superior product, and they succeed at it.

First time here. What a variety of desserts. Everything you…read morecan imagine and it all looked delicious. Service was good and fast. We ordered a Cortado, Hot Chocolate and a Meringue. They have cooked Russian food, those take around 15 min to make. Will try this next time. Coffees were ok, I think their specialties are the desserts and food. Nice ambiance to relax and eat and also work on your computer. They have a small international market next to the bakery. Need to check the market next

The café offers plenty of seating and feels bright and welcoming, thanks to its corner location with large windows that let in lots of natural light. The owner is from Tanzania, and the mission of the business is to serve the local community with high-quality African coffee beans. Part of the profits go back to Africa to support coffee workers and help improve living conditions in their communities. Their signature drink is the Zanzibar spiced coffee, which I featured in my photo. It's infused with a blend of warm spices that makes it truly unique. The coffee I ordered was a lighter roast, with a pleasant hint of acidity as you sip it. They also have three different food options with African bread. The staff are incredibly friendly and happy to share the story behind the coffee shop, which makes the experience even more meaningful.

A coffee shop gets an upgrade when they offer yummy eats. The African chicken and veggie wraps were both worthy. The dipping sauce packed some heat. Very cute space and doable parking

As much as I hate using the term "hidden gem", I think River Maiden truly deserves the title! We…read morecame by on a weekend before a hike and all I can say is WHAT A CUTE SPOT. I honestly adore the interior just covered in plants and greenery; such an inviting little space. There was a line when we entered but it moved pretty quickly which was nice. The menu was so so so tempting and honestly, I wanted a breakfast burrito but knew there was no way I'd be able to finish it before we hiked so I went with a breakfast sandwich instead. I love the plethora of options they have for vegans/vegetarians and omnivores alike. I got my sandwich with egg, vegan sausage, cilantro aioli, and avocado - I was initially worried the aioli wouldn't be strong enough or flavorful enough but it was perfect. A very good breakfast sandwich, filling too! You can also get it on an english muffin or on ciabatta which is a nice swap depending on your mood. My friends tried the breakfast burritos, loved them but agreed portions were very generous. We also grabbed a couple scones -- the lemon poppyseed and the marionberry. They were the size of my head but I definitely get the hype around the marionberry scones; would inhale one daily if I could :P Coffee was good and sadly they were out of matcha the day we went so I guuuess we just have to go back to get it! There is plenty of parking in the giant lot and the honestly the highest props for having a drive thru! Swing by and try the goods~

It completely feels like a PNW spot. I went twice in 2 days with a friend of mine and got the exact same thing both times, the sausage breakfast burrito. It was that good. By itself, stuffed with eggs, peppers, crema, sausage, potatos, and cheese, it was a hearty and tasty breakfast. With the addition of the salsas, it was a revelation. I got both the red and green and mixed them. Absolutely delicious. My first time there I also got a marionberry scone which was huge and really tasty. Staff were very nice and the whole vibe of the place just seemed right. I definitely wish I had a place like this back in Nevada.
