It was really tasty (I love a dessert coffee). Despite it being the middle of the work day and very crowded, our drinks were still ready quickly! The sizes for the price were a bit off putting but the flavor made up for it. The space itself is cute, they have some cool chocolate bars and plenty of treats!

The Strawberry Matcha (4/10) still tasted good, but there was barely any matcha flavor. I mostly tasted strawberry, oat milk, and water. I need my matcha to actually taste like matcha. The Black Sesame Latte (9.6/10) was the clear winner. Sadly, the cold foam had mostly melted by the time I drank it, but the drink itself was PERFECT. The black sesame flavor wasn't overpowering, it wasn't too sweet, and I could still taste the espresso without it being too strong. Everything worked so well together that this was definitely a take one sip and accidentally chug the rest kind of drink.

Such a cute Palestinian-owned cafe on Wells. I've been a few times now and everything I've tried…read morehas been good. The OUD latte and pistachio latte are my favorites, and their scone is sooo good. The milk cake is also really good without being crazy sweet. Everyone working there has always been super nice and service is quick. It's pretty small inside, but I love sitting outside when the weather is nice. Good coffee, good desserts, and just a cute neighborhood spot.

There was a variety of sweets and savory items, and everything looked delicious. The banana bread pudding cinnamon roll and oreo cinnamon roll looked insanely good. I didn't have an appetite for food, so I will have to come back. I appreciated their expansive latte menu. They had a whole lot of specialty lattes to choose from. I went with an iced vanilla rose latte. When I stopped by around 9:45am, I found the place was busy. That said, I got my order in less than 5 minutes. Now the moment of truth... the latte was a fine vanilla latte, but where was the rose? Didn't get the flavor at all.

I had a Lana Del Fog in the afternoon and it was amazing. You can tell the baristas really create those drinks with skill. It's a bit pricey but standard craft coffee price of about $9 for 12oz. The indoor space has ample seating and feels like a good place to work but there's also some outdoor street seating which is perfect for chatting, people watching, or reading. Can't wait to try other drinks!

I was excited to try their summer specials, but I was not prepared for the line out the door. I had…read morebeen here once previously, but it was in the colder months, so it wasn't anywhere near as busy. My husband got the Milk & Cookies Cold Brew ($7), and I got the Neopolitan Latte ($6.50). I loved my drink. I got their Smoothie Bowl ($15), and my husband got the Breakfast Burrito ($11). The food does seem a little overpriced, but smoothie bowls always seem to come at a premium in the city. The Breakfast Burrito is more like taco-sized, so it's not great value, but it does taste good.

On my first visit, I tried the dulce de leche hot latte, which was good but nothing particularly stood out. I also had the egg, sausage, and cheese sandwich on a jalapeño cheese bagel. It was huge and overall good, but I found myself more of a fan of the bagel itself. On my second visit, I tried the vanilla lavender hot latte, which stood out much more to me. It had a great balance of coffee and sweetness. I also tried the egg, ham, and cheese jalapeño bagel and definitely preferred it over the other sandwich. It was savory and filling. I'd come back again the next time I'm visiting!

The prices are slightly steep (we paid around $12 for a glass of OJ). The location is perfect, they have a small fountain nearby and lots of benches to sit on. It's surrounded by many great restaurants and people come to this triangle to just sit and people watch. Overall, the location of this small cafe gives a very European vibe. The service is fast. Do swing by this place for Togo orders and sit around the fountain for your little escape to Europe.

The service was so friendly and welcoming. My lovely boyfriend and I spent a while talking and drinking by the water fountain next to other people and enjoying the vibes. The sound of the water was so calming, this was around 10pm-11pm and there was still so many people around walking and just enjoying themselves. It was an unforgettable experience that I recommend everyone to try. I cannot wait to visit again.

My mango matcha was also a wonderful blend of fresh mango flavors and earthy matcha tones. The pistachio cheesecake was a delicious finish! Decadently creamy with the slight crunch of pistachios and a nutty crust! An ideal treat for any occasion. The staff was attentive, friendly, and gracious - wiping our table outside after a rain and making sure we had the best service. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a delicious coffee or tea! I will definitely be back!
