    The Canadian
    Reyana K.

    The aesthetics of this cafe are top notch. Ever since they opened I knew I needed to make the trip. I was finally able to make it in on a bustling Saturday. Busy was an understatement. They have a decent amount of seating options, but it still felt very crowded. We ordered our drinks to go, so we didn't want to hog a seat. There wasn't much room for us to stand and wait for our drinks, though. My husband got the limited "The Honeycomb" latte and I got "The Canadian". His drink had notes of toffee, wildflower honey, and Dalgona candy. Mine has notes of maple, butter, and cinnamon. My latte was absolutely delicious - it tasted like cereal milk. My husband said he couldn't taste much of the espresso in his drink, but he did like the sweetness and overall flavor. I also really loved his drink as well. My only complaint is that my cold foam completely disappeared by the time I got to my car and I didn't even take a sip of it yet!

    WE LOVE BEGIN! LOCATION- It's downtown Westerville which is the cutest little strip. When we were visiting we happened to have an air bNb within walking distance to Begin, and thank the good Lord. It was so fun to walk down each morning and start our day here. Thankfully we were only in town Thursday, Friday and Saturday mornings (they are only open WED-SAT). VIBE & DECOR- Top notch, it's so cute in there and you can tell that all the details matter. It's beautiful and super cozy. and of course smells divine. STAFF- Everyone is having a blast, and look genuinely happy to be there and happy to serve you! It's a bright spot in your morning for sure! COFFEE- Excellent says my coffee roasting coffee snob husband! ESPRESSO drinks- YESSSSS! Makes mouth happy! I tried just a regular vanilla latte two mornings, and tried Kayla's special drink one morning which had cinnamon in it, loved. All so good! FOOD- I am so sad I didn't get a chocolate chip cookie I MEAN JUST LOOK AT THEM. OMG. But I did get the pistachio loaf and the egg sandwich. HEAVENLY. YOU NEED TO GO & TRY ALL THE THINGS! I MEAN IT. Absolutely divine. Highly recommend. All the stars!

    It's delicious. Service is decent. Space is limited. High quality coffee. I reccomend giving this place a try!!! When I went it was a bit crowded. But it's new. And that's good for business so I got over that aspect. Hours limited so check before you go. My biggest hope is they stay open. This is the 3rd coffee shop in this small area and Java is the GOAT. I hope the 3 can sustain and continue to thrive.

    I've been meaning to come to this area of Westerville! It's so pretty and I just love how it looks in the summer. I can't imagine how the area will look come fall time. I got a vanilla latte, and it was quite good. The interior is stunning and well designed. The food is made fresh and the staff were incredibly kind. Their strawberry matcha looks delicious so I'll be back to hang out soon.

    The interior of this cafe is so cute with lots of great seating options indoors and outdoors. The coffee was pretty good and i enjoyed it, however their matcha latte was honestly not great. The color of the matcha was promising however it tasted like nothing, so i was quite disappointed. Would love to try their food in the future.

    Spotted one of their locations when I was in LA and I knew there was one in Columbus so I had to…read morecome by. Had no idea initially that it was a chain. When my friend and I came in, it was late morning on a Saturday. Not busy yet but later on more folks that looked like college students came in. The menu doesn't explain much and the syrup and milk options are not on the back wall menu but by the ordering counter. Some syrups aren't available with hot drinks only iced. I tried the pistachio latte with oat milk while my friend tried the chai. As another Yelper said, the drinks are sweet and pretty milky. Not much espresso flavor. I'd come back to try the iced drinks though. They had a lot of fruity flavors. Otherwise, the space is nice. Lots of seating and comfortable couches. They had a little hanger thing by the couches to hang purses and hold long umbrellas. Even the bathrooms were clean and smelled good (they used plug-ins). And the staff were nice. Napkins weren't sitting out so I asked for some. Parking is easy. It shares the same parking lot as El Vaquero and Rusty Bucket. Probably a busy area in the evenings.

    Tried their veggies croissant and it was so yummy . I went super early I was only one inside so I…read moreddnt really have a bad experience:). People were nice and got my order right on time as I ordered thru their new app. The new app ddnt tell me it's ready but I went it and the time i put and told them my name and it was ready right away . :)
