Stopped by Art & Coffee to grab a snack and a drink while I was in the area. I was expecting a…read morebasic coffee shop with maybe some art on the walls. But I was greeted with a colorful large space instead. This place has everything creative from a gift shop with so many unique items, to a large open studio space in the back and a cafe area with drinks/food items. The food items offered are a little limited to mainly breakfast items and sandwiches but the grilled cheese I ordered was the best piece of nostalgia I could have. It was buttery and toasted to perfection. The drink menu is extensive with something for everyone, they also have a variety of locally baked pastries/goods for sale. In addition to my sandwich I got the lavender lemonade lotus drink and a red velvet cake pop. All delicious! The staff was very friendly and even answered my questions about how the open studio worked as I ordered. I will definitely be back to paint something fun and maybe indulge my inner child with another grilled cheese!

The moment you walk in, you're greeted by display cases filled with beautifully presented baked goods. It's the kind of place where you want to grab a tray and try a little bit of everything. Their mix of sweet and savory pastries pairs perfectly with their milk teas or coffee. The atmosphere is laid-back and works whether you're meeting friends, studying, or just stopping in for dessert. With affordable pricing and a broad menu of drinks and baked items, it's an easy place to return to when you want something different from a regular coffee shop.

I love a good bakery with fresh coffee on a weekend day and this checked that box. I was surprised…read morethat it didn't open until 10am on Sunday so we waited in the car for 15 min. It's nice to know that the case is full and fresh. We chose 3 items - pork floss & scallion bun was the clear winner. It was so good (5/5) and great price. The red bean bun was good (4/5). The almond pastry was fine (3/5) but I wanted it to have more flavor and moisture. Often, you get a little almond paste in the middle, but this was mostly dry with just almonds and cranberries on the outside. I didn't dislike it, but would not order again. They had strawberry and cream cake samples by the register. Those were also just okay 3/5). I got an Americano and we sat in a cute booth. Overall a nice breakfast and would try a few other items next visit!

The ambiance was clean and orderly. Upon entering, you grab a serving tray lined with parchment and some tongs. The items are in a glass enclosed display that you have to open and place your selections on your tray for purchase. I settled on the pistachio cream filled pecan pastry, the almond twist, and strawberry shortcake. The beverage menu was extensive: matcha, flavored teas, cocoa, espresso/coffee, and more. We were greeted by pleasant staff at checkout and our orders placed in a parchment type bag for take out. They also have seating inside. The pastries were just sweet enough without being overly sweet, which I like. The pistachio cream was a perfect compliment to the pecan encrusted pastry. The almond twist was both flaky and crunchy with the sliced almonds on top, and the strawberry shortcake had layers of real strawberries, whipped topping and yellow cake that was moist. All were fresh. All in all, a great place to stop by for a morning pastry treat and tea/coffee while in the area,

Calming spot to grab a treat, get some work done/journal, or catch up with friends in an aesthetic and modern cafe. Ordered the paradise tea with mango and avocado.

I haven't tried the pastries at this location, but have at their other Richmond cafe. Great cakes and buns made fresh in-house. Easy to find parking at the lot outside. Service is pretty quick.

The service was very friendly throughout my visit and really appreciated the attentiveness from the sever. I ended up getting a hot Charcoal Mocha because it seemed like something you can't get anywhere else, it has activated charcoal, espresso, cocoa powder & a touch of coconut oil. I love that they serve their drinks out of fun mugs, it feels homey. To eat, I got the Charter Colony sandwich once I noticed they offered gluten free bread. They have a great game selection and play area for kids and I think this would be a great place to catch up with a friend. Will be back!

On my recent visit, I ordered a small-sized coffee with extra ice. However, the beverage was placed…read morein a medium-sized cup and filled only partially, leaving a noticeable portion of the cup empty. This experience was particularly disappointing, as it did not reflect the quality or value I expected. Additionally, I have noticed a pattern of inconsistency during multiple visits. Each time I come to this location, the drink sizes and preparation vary significantly. This lack of standardization suggests poor management oversight and a need for improved staff training. When I politely requested that my cup be filled more--whether with milk or additional ice--my request was declined stating it was the baristas job to fill it and not there's I even asked if it could be made over so it could be filled even if it was in a small size cup and my request was STILL declined . It is frustrating as a customer to receive a partially filled cup, especially when a simple adjustment could have resolved the issue. No customer should feel shorted on a purchase especially when gas prices are sky rocketed and the way the economy is , at this point I rather make my coffee at home since i can't even get proper customer service spending my hard earned money ! Due to these repeated experiences, I find the service unprofessional and disappointing. As a result, I have decided not to return to this location. I have also shared my experience with others and will continue to advise against visiting based on the lack of consistency and customer care. I hope this feedback is taken seriously and used to improve service standards moving forward. Managers name : River

There were several groups meeting during our visit, around 10am, one of which seemed like a small book club or something. It was cool, but seemed it could be a bit distracting for a working coffee shop vibe. They serve breakfast and lunch. As she frequents here, she challenged the menu, which said no breakfast after 10/1030, and sure enough they said breakfast was served all day. She ordered a breakfast sandwich and I opted to get the chicken salad lunch sandwich. It was different than what I'd say traditional chicken salad would be served as, but it was okay, just unexpected. I got a smoothie for my drink. It was fresh and good. My only gripe is that it was very pricey for what you get. Between our two meals and drinks it was over $60 which is wild for brunch in a cafe style coffee shop.
