I always pick up a bag or two each time I visit and make espresso and pour over at home. They have a fantastic mocha/Dutch brew and good pour over. Go pick yourself up a few bags and enjoy the coffee ride.

What a great place in the area for coffee and pastries! I…read morerecently moved to the area and have loved trying everything in the area. I've eyed Recreo for a while and stopped in with a friend to visit, and we were so impressed! We got a pumpkin latte and a lavender matcha, the latter of which is on their summer menu. They knocked both out of the park - so flavorful and delicious! We both tend to prefer sweeter drinks, but we had a perfect balance of flavor with our coffee/matcha. My friend also got a mixed berry scone, which was solid as well but he found it to be a little dry. I would definitely look forward to trying a pastry in the future - I was eyeing their cookies, but wasn't feeling it that morning. I am so happy I live so close and will definitely be back! The baristas were all so kind and personable - in addition to making great drinks, they truly connected with each customer and everyone seemed so happy to be there. We sat inside with all the pollen outside, but the outdoor patio nearby was ADORABLE. Makes sense that it was full when we got there!

I got a cappuccino and others in my group got the black sesame latte, black coffee and the london fog overnight oats with prune jam and pecans. Cappuccino was well made and tasty. Black coffee was smooth and didn't need milk. The black sesame latte wasn't overly sweet, even with the oat milk substitution. They only have oat milk as their alt milk.

All those were amazingly good. The chai latte was pretty good but the iced mocha mostly tasted like weak chocolate milk. We sat outside because we had our dog so they do have outdoor seating of 3 tables which is great if you have a pet but it's a loading dock that has a view right onto the street so the atmosphere there isn't anything great but inside is nice. Parking here is hard but there is a lot across the street as well. Overall, it's a good place which is recommend for the taste of the food and drink.

This location is easy to get to from the airport which is great and I was able to visit on my last two trips.

Service is friendly and pretty quick even when there are people waiting I loved both my drinks - this last visit I got an iced latte because it was so hot out. There are seats outside and inside so I sat for a bit, did some people watching and relaxed while enjoying my drink The beans I brought back last time were delicious - I am looking forward to trying my most recent bag This will definitely be a must stop anytime I am in town

Iced Latte: The default Alchemy blend beans and whole milk tasted quite ordinary and didn't leave much of an impression. However, the portion was 16 ounces, which is larger than most coffee shops.

This location is a counter in the lobby of an office building and as a result there's a lot of seating which could be good for meeting up with people and also getting some work done.
