    2lb breakfast burrito
    Mark C.

    This is a very small shop all the way in the back corner of a small plaza. As the name implies, they serve up coffee along with other food items such as breakfast burritos, croissant sandwiches, and calzones. Oddly enough, the way this place looks is different from the pictures of the past. It definitely has that small business type of feel with inventory out in the public area, no sign boards showing the menu, and various inventory on the tables. They do have a written menu at least. The prices are good and the taste of the food are unique. I got their huge breakfast burrito and a croissant BLT. My order was taking so long that the owner gave me a free coffee which was quite delicious.

    I really wanted to love this place. Cute decor with the nautical theme. Sadly, not a very warm welcome when we walked in. The girl at the counter was on her phone and did not make eye contact or greet us. We ordered a tea and a coffee. She wasn't unpleasant, but she made no eye contact at all as she rang our order - no smile either, she was pretty much just to the point. We got our drinks and were the only customers. She went back to her phone as we sat there with our drinks. There were a bunch of boxes in the middle of the floor on the right, in the middle of the shop. It made the place look like it was not put together and a tad bit messy. I think this is a cute place with a lot of potential. Maybe we came on a day when they just had a delivery, hence all the boxes. Maybe we came on a day when the girl at the counter did not feel like interacting. I don't know, but it sadly didn't leave me with a burning desire to return.

    For some reason I thought this place closed down but I'm so glad it didn't and I got to try it for the first time today! This is a cute nautical coffee shop. I like some of the antique type stuff that they have in here! I got an iced coffee with oat milk and English toffee. They charge the same for every size coffee which is awesome! I got my husband a hot caramel latte. The barista was awesome. They make their coffee strong and didn't put too much oat milk in mine so I asked for a little more and he was able to help be out. It tasted amazing! Affordable too! Would come back for sure.

    Ask for Cuban coffee.

    I have been here A LOT. We live nearby and it's our favorite coffee shop to visit. They used to…read morebe super Duper busy, but always very quick. We've tried a lot of different things on the menu, but my favorite will always be the regular strawberry Matcha, they also always have seasonal flavors which is really fun, and helps me try new things since I go so much. Their banana pudding Matcha is very popular and I missed it last year, so I got it this time, soooo delicious. They also sell the banana pudding by itself which is also a great snack/dessert. The Matcha is sometimes inconsistent here, I've had more hits than misses, but it's something to consider since their drinks are pretty expensive. When it's not too busy this is the perfect place to study or work, it's really cute inside and has great ambience!

    I have never been to a place with so many flavors of Vietnamese coffee! We got the pandan and…read moreSaigon Vietnamese coffee--super delicious without being over sweet or over stimulating. They have a lot of great drinks that are unique, I would definitely come back here again and try them all. It's pretty popular on the weekend in an unmarked plaza with decent amount of seating. Options for ordering at the counter or iPad for convenience. They don't have bahn mi sandwiches like an older review mentioned but they do have ready made cold cut sandwiches and freshly made açaí bowls. A pleasant surprise and our go-to for Vietnamese coffee at this point!
