    Latte & toast
    Kelley K.

    Excellent coffee! Super wonderful coffee. I had a latte and it was so good! The workers were nice & a bit over whelmed. Place is small. We sat outside. Tables definitely needed to eat cleaned off. We wiped with a napkin & they were full black dirt. Did i mention the coffee is amazing?! The toast was good & the Acai bowl was a smoothie in a bowl. Needed a straw not a spoon. Coffee & toast the stars!

    Amazing as usual!! Great customer service even with their busy and overwhelming crowd. Chandlor/Chandler- so sorry if I misspelled your name and didn't want to ask you to repeat due to the line. The whole staff had great teamwork and so amazing with their service! The food is fresh, delicious, and a good fill. Place is nicely decorated and welcoming vibe. Good variety of food and drink options. Lots of available parking but can be a tad tight due to the shops available in the plaza.

    Steadfast Cafe is a hidden gem if you're looking for a place to get some serious work done. They have large tables, plenty of electrical outlets, and a comfortable atmosphere that's perfect for deep focus. The staff was incredibly welcoming and took the time to recommend a pairing that did not disappoint: a delicious turkey avocado sandwich with their amazing house spread and a rosemary latte. Both were fresh, flavorful, and absolutely worth ordering. Whether you're meeting a friend, grabbing lunch, or settling in with your laptop for a few hours, Steadfast Cafe is a fantastic choice. I'll definitely be back!

    Honey Cold Brew W/ Vanilla Cold Foam

    Great coffee, great service! Second time here and loved the coffee both times. Today I got their cold brew and though it was the honey with vanilla cold foam, it wasn't too sweet, perfect amount of sweetness for me.

    Brad's Way Iced Shaken Espresso
    Michelle N.

    Wanted to try a new coffee shop and luckily this place had a sale the time we ordered! I got the Brad's Way Iced Shaken Espresso and it was BOGO Free! It was light, but still had the espresso kick I needed. The hints of hazelnut topped it off. Wish it was given in a bigger size! Similar to the 85 degrees Coffee. If you like that, you'll like this.

    Banana Hazelnut Cold brew

    Solid sandwiches and coffee. Ordered the Turkey Avocado Sando and the Banana Hazelnut Cold Brew. Sandwich was great. I added bacon for a nice crunch, but good country bread and fresh ingredients. Cold brew was a bit sour, but the banana hazelnut flavor helped cut that. Didn't eat in, so can't speak to the service or ambiance, but would get a sandwich and a different latte next time.

    I ordered bbq chicken melt and a cold brew. Bread was nicely toasted and I liked it with the cheese. I was deciding between avocado toast and bbq chicken melt. I went with the melt this time but I'll probably try the avocado toast next time. Service was really friendly. Parking was easy. There are a lot of other shops nearby too.

    Next Level Breakfast Sando
    Jeannie L.

    Stopped by this local cafe and overall had a solid experience. I ordered a medium honey vanilla cinnamon latte and a "next level" breakfast sando, total came out to $25 with tip. The barista was super nice and gave me a heads-up that the latte runs on the sweeter side (which I usually love), so I appreciated the warning. The drink was definitely sweet so if you don't like sweet drinks, I'd opt out, but still tasty overall. The "Next Level Breakfast Sando" was good and filling. Only small downside was that the avocado looked a bit past its prime, though it tasted fine overall. I came around 6:30am and it was pretty quiet, but it picked up fast between 7-7:30am. The cafe looked clean, has a handful of seats, and they played modern popular music, which gives it a nice vibe. Friendly service, solid food and drinks - I'd come back to try more items if I'm in the area.

    Breakfast Sando

    Steadfast Cafe is a small little spot tucked away in a shopping center, and it was such a pleasant surprise. There are tables inside and outside, and it had that easy morning vibe with people hanging out and sipping coffee. I ordered the Breakfast Sando to share with my broke bestie, aka my 10-year-old son, and it absolutely understood the assignment: flaky, buttery croissant, smoky thick-cut bacon, fluffy eggs, melty gouda, and a sriracha mayo that gives it a little kick without taking over. Rich, satisfying, and exactly what you want from a breakfast sandwich. My son is a breakfast sandwich connoisseur (he gets them everywhere), so I asked for the official verdict. He took a bite and said, "This breakfast sandwich is incredible." Case closed. Service was fast and genuinely friendly. She wished us a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, and I love that kind of warmth. Also grabbed an old-school Martinelli's apple juice, which was the perfect little throwback. Come for the croissant situation, stay for the kind service. Easy recommend.

    This place is so consistent! The atmosphere is cute and quaint. The service is always friendly. The coffee is always just fine quality. The breakfast Sando is so good. I also love the hot rose latte with almond milk. Will be coming back.

    A cozy cafe located perfectly in the corner of a small business strip. A sizeable amount of seating for those wanting to sit and enjoy a cup of coffee with their meal. The staff is friendly and fast with their service. I ordered the Honey Vanilla Cinnamon Latte which is smooth, rich and not too sweet. I also ordered their Ham and Swiss Croissant which was good.

    Ham and Cheese Croissant
    Connie T.

    I was craving a croissant sandwich and found this spot through Yelp. It looked promising online, but when I got there, it really was a true hole-in-the-wall. The croissant looked great in the photos, but in person, it was pretty small for the price -- about $15 for a sandwich with just egg, avocado, ham, bacon, and lettuce. Definitely on the pricey side for what you get. I also tried the buttery lavender matcha, but it was just okay -- I've had better at other matcha spots. Service was friendly, but overall, I don't think I'd come back. Cute little place, just not worth the hype or price for me.

They've been consistently amazing ever since they opened, and somehow they've only gotten better over time. I honestly enjoy just about every drink on their menu, especially their seasonal specials. My all-time favorite has to be their 2026 Spring Earl Grey Matcha. I was getting it almost every week, and I was genuinely sad when they switched over to their summer menu. Thankfully, they kept the Mango Sticky Rice Matcha, because wow... what a flavor explosion. It's easily one of the best matcha drinks I've ever had, and my friend and I keep coming back just for it. I know it sounds a little adventurous, because it did to me, but when I tried it, it genuinely changed my life (kidding). If mango isn't your thing, I highly recommend either the Double Matcha or the Banana Matcha. The Double Matcha is perfect if you love a strong matcha flavor; you can really taste the quality of the matcha they use. As for the Banana Matcha, I normally don't gravitate toward banana drinks, but SIP completely changed my mind. They use what tastes like a banana pudding instead of artificial banana flavoring, and it blends so smoothly with the matcha that every sip feels balanced and indulgent. The café itself is just as charming as the drinks. The wood paneling gives the space a cozy, retro vibe that makes you want to stay a while, and the staff is always incredibly friendly, patient, and welcoming.

Now the MATCHA I looooved their matcha with the Earl Grey foam top. OMG... it was phenomenal!! The matcha was earthy, umami, and so well balanced, and the hint of Earl Grey in the foam complemented it perfectly without overpowering the matcha. Such a good combination! I will 100% be coming back for this one!

I've actually been to this restaurant many times because I really enjoy the beautiful atmosphere and the food is usually delicious. That's why this experience was especially disappointing. I hope the kitchen can pay more attention to the noodles and cooking time, because this definitely wasn't the quality I've come to expect from Nếp

Maybe it was the brew, or the grinds were too coarse, but the first initial taste was very acidic and upsetting to the palette. It could've also been that I got a hot drink instead of iced. I noticed a lot of people were ordering iced drinks instead of hot, so next time I will try an iced drink. Good news is their menu is very extensive! They have so many options of coffee, matcha, and non-caffeinated beverages for everyone. They also have a seasonal menu that changes frequently. Right now they have a pumpkin spice latte for fall.

Even right at the 7:00 a.m. opening, the selection is only about 25% full, and they consistently run out of the best items by noon. ​Management & Service Decline ​There has been a noticeable shift in management over the last 6 to 9 months. It feels like leadership is focused entirely on "running lean" rather than prioritizing customer service, variety, and satisfaction. Consequently, the restaurant is rarely as full as it used to be, and overall business has visibly dropped off. Additionally, the dining area could use better attention, as the tables are not always clean. ​Drive-Thru & Morning Operations ​Attempting to visit during the morning commute has become consistently frustrating due to a rotating list of operational issues: ​Glitchy and problematic performance with the new app. ​Cones blocking the drive-thru lanes without clear reason. ​Doors failing to open on time, remaining locked past opening time of 7:00 a.m. ​Recommendation: To better serve commuting customers, management should consider moving the opening time to 6:30 a.m.--and crucially, ensure that operations actually begin on time. ​Summary Verdict ​This location used to offer great service and fully stocked cases. It has immense potential to be busy all the time, but management needs to shift its focus away from extreme cost-cutting and back toward building the business and taking care of its customers. I've spoken to several of the employees over the last few weeks and I'm hearing that they keep hearing this from their customer base. Hopefully someone in management will see this and bump things up a notch.
