My most recent experience warranted a beyond frustrating experience that has led me to change my perspective of this business. Most recently, I decided after many times of horrible counter service, maybe a pick up order ahead of time, using Square, is best. Placed the order and drove 30 min to pick it up. Arrived at Forum and the kid behind the counter says "oh I didn't make it because we don't have the ingredients" !!! Not a phone call, nothing. Then he offered to make me something else, both of which were incorrect- this took 25 minutes !!!! 25 minutes to make two drinks- wrong. I was patient, he was alone, however last visit was similar with two people behind counter. The coffee is good. Service is horrendous.

I knew I would be there at a certain time so I placed an online order for three sea salt coffees. I made sure they would be ready at a certain time that the app let me set. Also to note I've been here a few times and it's a very typical 85° which has a few tables to sit at and definitely keeps it very basic and bakery feeling. I get there about a half hour later and my coffee is not ready yet even though it was supposed to be ready 2 minutes before. I stood there for a while and finally someone came up to the coffee counter and asked if I needed anything. I said I was simply just waiting for my online order that I placed over a half hour ago. He went over to his computer and printed it out and got started on it but doesn't really give me a lot of confidence in placing online orders in the future. The worker did apologize and I appreciate that so four stars for now. As I was leaving, a lady who was also waiting for her coffee noted that she did the same thing and apparently they don't have all of their ducks in a row yet.

Nice spot for coffee…read more Inside is clean and spacious with good natural light. Iced coffees are good and we enjoyed our specials. we came in a little late so there wasnt much left to eat - only the crumb cake so cant say much for the food. Not so crowded during this time too (around 5pm sunday). Theres a spacious gender neutral bathroom which was kept clean and there's street park only. Parking at the back are for residents or for other businesses fyi. few outdoor seats available. Overall another good coffee spot.

Also it is located next to Kid's empire so it's a great place to get caffeinated before playing with the kiddos next door.

I ordered a large latte with cinnamon, a croissant for chocolate chip cookies and a heated cinnamon roll. All this took 20 minutes to get. The staff seemed to be overwhelmed by the amount of people and took very long time to fulfill the order. Which was unfortunate because the coffee is actually pretty good, and it looks like they have a lot of events at this space that would be fun to come back to. Like a poetry open Mike game nights art painting. But the care in service leaves a lot to be desired. The cinnamon roll was soft and tasty and not overly sweet, which I appreciated and the chocolate chip cookies were also very good. the croissant was smashed inside the take away container as an afterthought and not with any care. This is something that I believe warrants attention by Management to train the staff. And waited essentially 25 minutes after ordering for

The owner was there and he is just amazing. You can chat with him about coffee and spend hours on end.

This is a great spot for meeting up and catching up. There are lots of seating options and it feels spacious. When it's warm, they have outdoor seating.

They had some fall options which were very tempting. I wanted to get a baked good, but nothing looked that appealing. I can also see this being a good place for a coffee date as it's lively but not loud.

Downtown Caldwell is really good, with ample parking spots, wide roads, and a nice & clean look. I also got a couple of restaurant names, which I am going to try later on.

Grab a table or sofa, order whatever you want (ofcourse, from the menu), chit-chat with your friends/family, have those hot sips- what else can you expect from any good coffee joint?

Easily one of the better specialty lattes I've had. The almond croissant was fantastic: flaky, buttery, and topped generously with almonds. It paired really well with the coffee. The café was very busy when we walked in, which says a lot about how popular it is. Tables are on the smaller side, so if you're planning to work on a laptop, it can feel a bit tight -- but it's still doable if you're mindful of space. What really stood out was the staff. Everyone was genuinely kind and welcoming, even with the rush. Overall, great coffee, excellent pastries, and a warm vibe. Definitely worth the stop, whether you're grabbing something to-go or sitting down for a bit.

I've seen a few negative reviews, but my experience has been totally different and I honestly think those critiques are undeserved. The coffee and food are fantastic.

It's wonderful to have such great quality coffee and a lovely atmosphere right here in Lake Hiawatha. Highly recommend stopping by!
