I especially loved the garage door, as it was amazing to sit at a table in the AC but also be basking in the sun. The barista was very kind and friendly. My partner got an arnie palmer, and their drink was tasty and refreshing. My drink, the cherry pie latte, was disappointing. I'm not sure if their espresso just isn't very strong, or if they forgot to put the shot in the drink, but it tasted like flavored milk. I'd be willing to come here again for non espresso drinks, but I want my coffee to taste like coffee!

I ordered a hot Noko Espresso with raspberry syrup, and it was very good--rich and bold, with a strong raspberry flavor just the way I like it. I originally wanted kiwi syrup, but they mentioned it's seasonal and wasn't available at the time. The interior of the shop was fine--not overly decorated, but comfortable and warm. After enjoying my coffee, I took a short walk to soak in the beautiful views at Lake Nokomis. What a great day!

If you really love caffeine, you can even order a 34-ounce iced coffee bucket. It's a bold option and definitely stands out. They offer beans from places like Colombia, Ethiopia, Costa Rica, Guatemala, and Brazil. You can pick the bean you want for your drink, or buy some to roast yourself at home. During my visit, I ordered a harvest latte with almond milk and an egg, and cheese croissant. I'll start with the win: the latte. It was thoughtful, balanced, and the clear highlight of the visit -- easily the reason I'd return. The croissant didn't stand out as much. It's premade and reheated in the microwave, which is not my personal favorite. The sandwiches taste fresh, and they are handed to you warm, but I wouldn't come back specifically for breakfast. Even though I stopped in on a busy Sunday morning, the wait was short, which I appreciated. The service felt a bit reserved. It wasn't unfriendly, just not especially warm. That might have been because of the steady rush, not a lack of care. Overall, it's a good coffee shop. I wouldn't take it off my list; the prices are fair, and the coffee is good.

Lots of options on the menu, I was looking for the seasonal drinks but didn't realize until after I ordered they were indeed on the main menu. I ended up getting an iced vanilla macchiato and an iced matcha. The Matcha did have some small chunks but overall the drinks were good. They have plenty of tables to sit and some outside as well on the sidewalk patio. Parking was street as far as I could tell. Generally a decent coffee shop if you're in the area.

Food 4/5: we got the breakfast sandwich (sausage,egg,cheese,spinach on a croissant) and plain bagels. The breakfast sandwich was well seasoned and flavor balanced and I'd absolutely come back for! The bagel didn't seem the most fresh, but they did have other pasties I'd try. I also got the cold brew with maple syrup and a splash of milk and would absolutely come back for! Service 5/5: the ladies that helped me were so nice and helped answer all of my questions. The food/drink was made quickly. Ambiance 5/5: this place has plenty of seating inside and out and has a more cozy aesthetic. Definitely worth a try if you're on the neighborhood! I love that they have more than just pastry options for breakfast and we will definitely be back.

It gets pretty loud inside and there isn't a ton of natural light so it's not the best place to study, but they do have plenty of seating and space if you don't mind studying in that environment. It's a great place to hang out and catch up with friends. They have outdoor seating in the summer too. The coffee is pricey compared to other shops in the area, but it is so good I keep going back. Even just a cup of plain hot coffee is almost $5. The workers have always been friendly and the coffee comes out quick. Despite the price and atmosphere, it gets a 5 from me solely for the amazing coffee!

The baristas definitely have latte art skills, and my drink was prepared beautifully and with care.The staff are super kind, which really adds to the experience.

I have tried both their coffee and their matcha and they are both spectacular. They always have fun seasonal flavors to try and they use homemade syrups which I really appreciate.

That being said, people are always willing to share a table when it's crazy full. The wifi is great. Street parking is available within the neighborhoods. It is definitely somewhat loud with music, talking, and the sounds of coffee being made, so if you need a silent work space this probably isn't the place for you.
