    Pistachio butter latte
    Cheri L.

    There's a cute new cafe in the city along Polk St! They have a chill setting with vinyls playing and a menu of coffees and breakfast bites. I tried their pistachio latte and while it was a nice cup, I wish the flavors were stronger to actually make it taste like pistachio butter. Service was very nice though!

    black sesame latte

    the staff is super friendly and sweet! the cafe has nice vibes to chat and chill at with free wifi and a bathroom, but there aren't that many seats. the black sesame latte ($7.75) had both black sesame paste and cream which made the drink very nutty but they kind of made the latte feel too buttery and overpower the coffee

    Tokyo Fog

    I really wanted to like this place. Ample seating, a cool soundsystem, and interesting signature drinks. Unfortunately, both drinks we had were mid. The Tokyo Fog tasted watery and there were clumps of unincorporated matcha. The Pistachio Butter Latte lacked flavor, and tasted like a standard latte.

    Love this new spot in the area! Would love to come back because I heard they also do wine at night. Love that they have sugar free options.

    I love this place! It just opened. The owners are genuinely so kind. They care about good music, good coffee, and good connections.

    Lovely little wine bar for a night out! Super busy and loud but a great ambiance. Small indoor and…read moresmall outdoor seating. The wine was pretty good, and the tapas were amazing! I loved the poke. It's a bit sweeter but a great taste. Also a cute dog roaming around. Definitely will be back!

    We believe in second chances. And by we I mean me, my friends, and Tom…read more We showed up last night and immediately the atmosphere was different. Every single table was full and bustling. The people were laughing, the drinks were flowing. It smelled really good, which we would later find out was from the food especially that Mac and cheese. We started off with different wines, some that Tom recommended based on what we told him we didn't like or did like. He apologized for our previous experience and was genuinely a nice guy. Honestly it's very admirable for a business owner to take feedback to heart and want to incorporate it. Plus he's a really cool guy when you get to know him. The staff was busy running around but still made time to come check on us. Our final verdict is we came on a bad day. This time we got the actual Waystone experience. We finally got to try the chicken bites with a creamy aioli, fries with yogurt sauce, and the star of the show was the Mac and cheese. Tik tok did live up to the hype and we will have to come back for one of their jazz nights. Be warned this place gets busy! But it's worth it.
