I'm lucky she asked what I wanted. I believe this person hates humanity and loathed my presence in their shop. Though I'm not sure why as there was only one other person there on a Thursday at 2pm. I gave a $5 tip on my $4.50 coffee and there was absolutely no thank you or acknowledgment whatsoever. No 'have a nice day' or anything. This is completely inappropriate behavior when working at a non-corporate owned coffee shop.

The parking situation is not great, a small lot and no other options nearby for parking so cars will double park and block others, not great. But the cafe itself is so so cute! Great patio and super nice inside with a lovely menu of espresso beverages, breakfast and bakery items. I highly recommend the avocado toast, lots of flavor with a little lemon, Parmesan cheese and chili flakes- yum!! I like to add an egg on top too. They also have a nice cinnamon roll with a tasty frosting that is just the right level of sweet. I definitely want to go back!
