Those are the things that made it standout for me. Perfect place for a college town like East Lansing.

The coffee and matcha are fantastic, servers are friendly and accommodating. Lots of cool art and interesting books. They also host events though I've never attended one. This place has chill vibes.

Couple running groups, students studying, OSU women's gymnastics team, etc. Got through line quickly and order was prompt. What a great selection of the basics plus seasonal concoctions. I opted for the bourbon vanilla latte and Mediterranean avocado toast. Lots of seating options. I went with a bench upstairs. Enjoyed the whole experience.

My wife and were in need for some coffee and we decided to go here. This place is really cozy and…read morethe staff is very friendly. I really love this place as it has a ton of seating, There are two levels and students come here to study and work in groups. The have so many different drinks and food to choose from lattes, drip coffee, pour over coffee, smoothies, tea, ice cream, breakfast pastries, breakfast sandwiches, and hot chocolate to name a few. We ordered the Lavender Honey Latte and the Caramel & Vanilla Latte but the coffee was delicious. Both had the right amount of flavors, it was served with at the right temperature. It came quickly as well. Overall, we would come here again next time we are in town. Next time, I'll be sure to order the Barista Flavor of the Day.

I tried the spearmint flavor, and you don't really taste it that much. But the mocha sauce they use…read moretastes a lot like brownie batter, which was really delicious! :) Also, if you have an allergy to almonds (like me), they'll make your drink in a separate pitcher.

I am a blue owl customer since so long. I love to have my Cafe Au Lait with oat milk and honey. I…read morelove my blue owl coffe so much until a Guy there was serving it. He was damn good in making the coffee, everytime I took my coffee from there it was with the same taste and awesome. He was also so good in greeting the people and helping them with their orders. But IDK what happened and I am not seeing that guy anymore there. Now some new persons are serving there and running. Literally since then I am missing my BLUE OWL CAFE AU LAIT so much. The people now serving there are not doing there job seriously and ruining my morning mood daily. I am liking the taste at all. I really asked if it's possible to do something for that, otherwise no problem there are more coffee places. I just really wish you guys could do better with that guy. Also one more incident I would like to share that the person now serving is literally not taking the job seriuosly becuse he gave me my coffee cup with the bigger lid which wasn's fit on the cup at all and that I wasn't aware of. When I drank my coffee it was all over me with that lid, so you can now understand what is happening. I am not very happy btw. Thanks though.

The Boba drinks always taste great, the boba is perfect and plentiful. The chicken is served hot and fresh as are the fries - don't miss out on the Szechuan seasoning! I've eaten several of their dinners with rice and always thought the serving sizes were good as well as the flavor. My personal favorite is the purple rice burrito with chicken, eel, and shrimp. It's tasty and filling and satisfies my cravings every time. Go here! Support local!

Again, just milk with a slight hint of the syrup. I always like to try seasonal drinks but now that I'm old, I think I'm just gonna get regular coffee in the future. I couldn't tell you what the coffee tasted like at all. Service was fine, I read a lot of negative reviews but my barista was very nice and friendly. It definitely looked like a great place to relax at, there were quite a few tables and they were all filled. We did not get any of the baked goods; it all looked appetizing though. Next time I'm here, I'll get a cold brew.

Good beats on music, again not being overly loud but can listen to it if you needed to.

The moka spice latte was pretty decent but what we thought would be a show stopper, the Dubai chocolate latte, was just too sweet. And not like a rich chocolate sweet but felt like an overload of sugar with a hint of oiliness from the chocolate. Would not recommend especially at the steep price of the drink. We also asked for hot lattes but they were lukewarm at best. I'm still curious about their chai so we might return but will pass on the espresso drinks for now. If we try them again, I would try another flavor and would also select the iced option.
