I've been wanting to get here for years after hearing about the cinnamon rolls. I was finally in…read morethe area at the right time (after Art in the Hollow which was also amazing!) I managed to snag the LAST cinnamon roll! I am taking the fact it was the last in to account. It wasn't the freshest - and an outside corner piece - so it was a bit dry and hard. However, it turns out the roll is just an easy way to get the frosting in your face. Omg. Delicious, buttery amazing frosting. (Which they did frost at the time of purchase). The place is small but they have an upstairs as well as a nice garden patios.

SUPER cute coffee shop with a very impressive menu of breakfast fare. I got a breakfast called…read more"Hashbrown Bake Platter" whose name undersells itself; the potato part was a delicious, savory cake with hash browns, cheese, bacon, and sausage in an ideal ratio. It also came with perfectly done scrambled eggs and toast. I got a unique latte as well; I asked the barista for her favorite and wound up with a raspberry & dark chocolate latte that had a surprising shock of bitterness. It was great. You will probably really like the ambience. It appears to have been built out of a lovely Victorian home in Dayton's Bluff, and there is plenty of upstairs seating including cute tables on the landings. There is also a very green patio. Friendly service tops it all off nicely. Their only not-open day is Tuesday, so bear that in mind. There is neighborhood street parking which you may have to hunt around a bit for. I really think you'll enjoy hanging out here!

The americano was good and I like that there is comfortable seating options…read more The 2 times I have been here the GF scone has been sold out. The place is really noisy. Especially with live music. Live music doesn't work well for the space. Service is fast and friendly.

Quality has definitely gone down since opening . . . Don't usually like to leave bad reviews and…read morewant to really like this place, but not very impressed every time I visit. On slow days, they are not efficient with orders and staff can be rude if you ask why you've been waiting 20min for your drink. Espresso drinks are better than their matcha drinks - it's quite bitter despite sweetener. I got the Banhmi Ni and despite it looking like it had been panini pressed, the meat inside was very cold, near frozen . . . There was hair another time in my pesto chicken panini. Kept the 3rd star because they are never short of tables and have plenty of outlets to be able to do work if you need to. Not sure if the food/drinks are worth these prices though.

I went on a Friday morning around 8 am and did have to wait in a short line. There was maybe one or…read moretwo tables open, but was overall very busy. Food 5/5: I got the grandmas house latte and an everything bagel with garlic and herb cream cheese. The latte was well blended and overall very smooth. The bagel was very flavor full and I really liked the flavor combo between the bagel and cream cheese. Service 5/5: overall the staff was efficient and friendly Ambiance 5/5: the vaulted ceilings yet cozy aesthetic makes this place very visually pleasing. Plenty of space and tables, but hard to find a table when busy. Overall I had a great experience and will be back! A great option for a local coffee and pastry/bagel breakfast.

The service was wonderful! Everyone was so nice! When my boyfriend tried his drink, it just didn't taste right (iced vanilla latte with 4 shots of espresso) They remade it and were very apologetic! The drinks: I got an iced grandmas house with oat milk! There is no up charge for oatmilk! My wallet and stomach appreciated that! The flavor was really good! Unfortunately even with the remake, there seemed to be something off about my boyfriend's drink... I asked for them to take the vanilla out, thinking maybe be it was the syrup. But it just wasn't good. We were also hoping to get the pizza that was there but they only had slices, not a full pie. It was disappointing. Overall this is a nice coffee shop

My friend told me that Blueberry had a really good drink called Strawberry Summer. We got that and my other friend ordered Brown sugar boba. The drinks were fairly priced (cash only), and good.

My friends that are local said that they're caramel delight is one of there better flavors, it has ice blended with milk, caramel pudding, and boba pearls. It's a pretty large cup but very refreshing and not too sweet if you're afraid it's too sweet. They made the drinks pretty quickly and it's perfect to get after having a full meal at Hmong Village. Service is also very quick and it's just a store front, not sure if it's cash only but a lot of the vendors there are cash only. I would try any of of their other drinks on the menu, their strawberry summer looks good and they have additional toppings that can also be added.

Oh I KNOW you're going to like this place. It is a great coffee shop with nice coffee drinks and…read moresome hot breakfast food. PLUS, it is a very nice record store! Great selection; I spotted a couple of records that I don't find often. And they have cassette tapes! I am very much of the cassette tape generation and I can confirm that those janky little rectangles don't have the same nostalgia appeal as big, pretty disks, but it's cool that they are offered! If you are just interested in checking out a record store I think you'll be satisfied here. But I like coffee shops and I loved my coffee and my breakfast sandwich. I got the Caramel Creme Brulee latte which was delicious. They even singe the top like a real creme brulee! It sounds like it will be too sweet but it isn't; great flavor balance with the coffee flavor not being overtaken. They sell a variety of beans as well. There is a nice sidewalk patio area, and it's a comfortable, chill hangout spot in this lively urban neighborhood. I like it very much here!

The record selection is amazing with a great mix of new and used records, plus a super fun section of $2 records where you can fill a bag and find some real gems. The coffee is excellent. The breakfast sandwich is house made and prepared fresh for you, and everything we tried was delicious. The caramel brulee latte is truly something special. It has a full cap of caramelized sugar on top and is honestly exquisite. Service is outstanding. Friendly faces, quick service, and such a welcoming, comfortable atmosphere. There are lots of seating options and plenty of natural light, making it a great place to hang out, relax, work a bit, or browse records. Overall just a fun, feel-good spot that combines great coffee, great music, and great people. One of those places you leave already planning to come back.
