Mike and the entire team at Dreamwave are doing such an incredible job of making the experience worth every penny. The quality of the coffee, the work they do, and the service they provide is truly top tier. While they do have a lot of fun flavors, this is not the kind of place that drowns the palate with sweetness. They expertly balance the ratio of syrup, milk, and espresso to provide the best outcome. The nuttiness of their roast really shines, and they're always happy to adjust the sweetness if you need them to. Personally, I love the lower sweetness level being the default. These guys know what they're doing! We've been visiting for the past week and have stopped through Dreamwave four times this week. While I'm always in the need of a coffee fix, we've gone out of our way to visit multiple times because the people have been so beyond kind. We've sampled most of the house flavors and I can confidently say they have all been delicious. This would definitely be my go-to shop if I lived nearby.

We got our drinks after waiting 15 minutes and then waited another 30 minutes for our food when the morning rush came in.. and We checked in on our food and it seemed like they didnt start our food order.. Had we not checked in, we wouldve waited for something that might've not come. Definitely recommend a better system of keeping track of customers food and drinks order because it didnt come all at once.. and we hoped no one took our order by accident either. Overall, the food and drinks were good. We just wish we didnt wait almost an hour for our order.

Had a chance to stop in for their carshow today and have a few beers. All were very tasty, I particularly enjoyed the Yokyo Drift pilsner.

It was fast and the lady was really friendly. Inside it's very dark & moody vibes, still good natural light where you can work and study from. I just wish they brought back the Turon crème brûlée latte.

I'd def give this spot one more chance next time I'm in the area since the latte I got was good.

My mom has an autoimmune disease and some days are just harder than others in terms of us getting out of the house and enjoying some mother-daughter time. He really seemed genuine in his interaction, particularly with my mom, and it made her morning. Thank you kind sir for your heart and kindness- I want you to know that you made an impact!

The team was super friendly, personable, patient with our questions, and accommodating of our customization requests. We ordered iced hojicha tea lattes. I got it with oat milk, my spouse got it with half and half. I think it is pretty rare for non-Asian places to have hojicha! It was good! We want to come back and try other items. You stand in line to order at a counter but I think you can also order online. I love how there is an option to order "for here". We got a # to take to our seat and they delivered our drinks to the table directly. And in glass (for cold drinks)! No plastic! Huge differentiator! There was seating inside and outside. Inside felt bustling and jovial. Outside felt a bit more relaxed and less loud. The tables are pretty close together but still nice to have casual conversation. I loved sitting outside! It was relatively shaded and warm. This is a gem! We look forward to returning soon.

I ordered the caramel brulee with 20 percent sugar, but it was not for me. The coffee itself tasted a little burnt and somehow was still overly syrupy sweet.

Unfortunately the drink was enough that I do not see myself coming back.
