I ordered "A Tale of Two Kitties," and it was so good! It tasted like a mix of milk tea and coffee, which I really enjoyed. The drink was definitely the highlight of my visit. I would absolutely come back and get it again! I'd also recommend this cafe to friends and family, especially anyone who loves cute cafes and wants to try a delicious drink.

Once you find it, though, you're greeted by this cozy little coffee and book shop that feels like a secret hideaway. They have a really nice selection of books to browse or buy while enjoying a drink, with a handful of seating options: from regular tables to comfy chairs and sofas. It's the kind of place where you could easily lose track of time and accidentally spend a few hours reading. I ordered an espresso over ice, and honestly... their coffee is pretty damn good. I wasn't expecting much from a place that doesn't primarily specialize in coffee, but I was pleasantly surprised. The jasmine green tea was also really good and refreshing, especially on a hot summer day. The ambiance is probably my favorite part--quiet, cozy, and inviting without feeling too stuffy. Definitely a great little spot to escape to, grab a drink, and browse some books. Would absolutely come back!

They have cute handpick selections of stylish items and because it was black Friday they actually had I believe a 20% off sale on certain items. This place is definitely a little bit pricey in comparison to a lot of the other fast fashion places that I've gone to, but I guess because these are more curated pieces. I ended up grabbing a long sleeve sweater for the holidays and it came out to about $30 after the 20% discount. You are also unable to return items here you can only exchange within 14 days.
