This is a great place to stop in for a coffee or cappuccino. They feature different soups and sandwiches. The menu changes daily. I enjoyed looking at all the knickknacks, decor, gifts, jewelry and much more...so much to see! They have a variety of items that you don't see just anywhere. This place is worth a look.

I am also a huge fan of their caramel lattes and coffee cake. They prefer cash to help offset card processing fees, but cards are accepted too. If you're looking for a place to work or study, they offer 5 high-top counter seats in addition to their 10 other tables for places to enjoy your coffee, tea, or meal. Just be open to background noise as they have an open kitchen and it gets busy during peak hours.

I love the counter service concept and being able to pick my pastry out of the case before finding a seat. I ordered the breakfast burrito, a lemon poppyseed muffin, and a latte. For brunch catching up with a friend, it was the perfect blend of savory and sweet. And MAN was the breakfast burrito delish - I adore when breakfast items have a hearty serving of avocado, and the burrito struck the perfect balance of avo and egg goodness. The accompanying sauce was also delicious. My only complaint is I'm not a local so I can't visit more often. Definitely give this one a try!

Rating = 8.6/10), Nutella Croissant (I'm a sucker for Nutella and this definitely delivered. Rating = 9.2), Hot Frosted Sugar Cookie Latte (Solid - nothing special here, probably wouldn't order again. Rating = 7.2/10), and Iced Vanilla Latte (Another solid latte, I liked how you could easily taste the espresso flavor! Rating = 7.9/10). Service: We didn't receive great service on this morning. The cashier seemed a little grouchy and our drinks took a while to come out. Nothing that majorly impacted our visit though. Ambiance: The location itself has an excellent vibe and physical space. There is ample seating with a variety of tables, booths, and stools. The space is also decorated/setup extremely well - I'd say one of the best I have reviewed thus far! Overall, Barrett's is an excellent non-chain coffee shop! I'll be back to visit in the future.
