This was my first visit and I wanted a drink with low caffeine and not very sweet. Something refreshing is what I was seeking and I hit the jackpot!

The space itself has a really cool industrial vibe and offers lots of seating both inside and outside, making it a great spot to hang out or get some work done. Their menu has a lot of great options, including seasonal drinks. I tried the Split Decision latte and loved that it wasn't overly sweet, it had a great balance of flavor. The breakfast burrito was also fantastic and made for a really satisfying meal. Overall, a great coffee shop with a welcoming atmosphere, good food, and well-crafted drinks.

Recently I went for a meeting and tried their avo toast and yogurt bowl. Both were delicious and different. As simple as avo toast seems...a good amount of places don't get it right.

The yogurt bowl was simple yet delish!!! On another trip I tried one of their matcha drinks and really enjoyed it too. I never have an issue with parking or finding a spot to sit.

From the outside, it is an adorable spot with a beautiful, inviting building. Unfortunately, the remarkably unfriendly welcome I received inside immediately crushed my enthusiasm and made me regret walking in. I very nearly turned around and left. I can't say whether the staff was simply having a bad day, whether I didn't look like their usual clientele, or whether something else was going on. Whatever the reason, the interaction tainted my visit from the start. I purchased a Funfetti cupcake, a chocolate chip cookie, a snickerdoodle cookie, and a Key lime pie bar. The chocolate chip cookie was merely okay. Personally, I think a standard Nestlé Toll House cookie made at home would have been better. The snickerdoodle, on the other hand, was outstanding and easily the highlight of everything I tried. The Key lime pie bar had a wonderfully creamy texture and a lovely graham cracker base, but it contained barely any Key lime flavor. There was no citrus punch or brightness--just a smooth, creamy custard on top of graham cracker. The cupcake and frosting both had excellent flavor, but the cake itself was far too crumbly. A little more moisture and structure would have made it much more enjoyable and prevented it from falling apart. Overall, the baked goods were a mixed bag but showed some real potential. Unfortunately, I probably won't return. Even good pastries have a difficult time overcoming an experience with staff who make you feel unwelcome, and I don't particularly enjoy spending money somewhere that leaves me feeling that way. To those about to nosh, best of luck--and consider wearing a little emotional body armor.

While the coffee is poured straight into a plastic cup with no ice and a splash of almond because they don't carry oat milk. I still believe this is a better cup of coffee than Starbucks or Dunkin.

Now, i wasnt sure who in the world that was but, after i placed my order, i inquired. The cashier told me that he was the pastor of " the church," to which i replied where is the church, and she says " right here," it BLEW MY MIND. I didnt realize that i was walking into a church, or that "pastor appreciation days" even existed. lol! So glad that i ended up stopping by this day, the members of the church that i interacted with were very welcoming, and even provided us with 2 gift boxes, which included mugs inside. As it was a cold, rainy day, i ordered a hot vanilla latte, and a bacon, egg, and chasse croissant.
