    Chamomile tea - brewed right on the spot!
    Amy G.

    Just loved this little coffee spot - had a pumpkin muffin cappuccino and green monster panini sandwich! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Plenty of comfortable seats and tables - light music that didn't overwhelm the ambiance (was able to read my book and enjoy my drinks)[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] - had a nice hot chamomile tea with honey too! Everything was delightful - if I'm in the neighborhood I'll be back

    Blueberry muffin and coffee
    Kevin J.

    Great spot!! I'm in town for business. I love to visit local coffee shops. This place is so perfect. The staff is extremely pleasant. Got a coffee and blueberry muffin. I'm a blueberry muffin connoisseur and this is one of the best! I got the Samoa flavor in a hot coffee.

    This charming coffee shop is tucked away in French Hill. The drinks are delicious, and the food is good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance is fun and cozy, featuring exposed brick.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I would give it five stars, but the staff can be inconsistent. Sometimes they are really friendly and welcoming, while other times, it feels like customers are intentionally being ignored. At one point, three of us were standing there waiting as the staff chatted among themselves. Everyone has a bad day but this has happened consistently. However, knowing that going in, 4 stars based on drinks, food, ambience and sometimes great service.

    Cold bacon, egg & cheese

    I ordered breakfast sandwich to eat in. I did get handed my coffee and I sat down waiting for my breakfast sandwich. Other customers came in and went out. Another came in and ordered a sandwich to go. I stood there waiting for my sandwich while the egg, bacon & cheese sat getting cold on the counter while the to-go order was done before my toast was even out of the toaster. Sandwich was then wrapped to go and put in a bag. Sandwich was Luke warm. Once melted cheese now coagulated. All the while the two employees talked and talked about?-not work!!! Pausing to do hand movements, gestures, etc. The only thing missing was them holding their cell phones. Will not come back. Im glad I didn't tip when I ordered.

    Cold brew with a splash of cream

    One of the best cold brews I've had! I like mine with just a splash of cream, most places put in too much, the barista here nailed it! Helpful service as well in guiding us around town. We came back a 2nd day in a row!

    Stopped in for the first time today. It is absolutely adorable in here and extremely cozy. The staff is so friendly and welcoming! I grabbed a tea and now I'm sitting down to do some work in this peaceful atmosphere! Highly recommend.

    Super cute and the service is great! The pastries looking amazing I just wish I didn't order what I ordered. I got the strawberries and Nutella crepe. For $10 for 1 crepe I was really surprised that fresh strawberries weren't used. That unfortunately ruined it for me. They were just large frozen to now thawed strawberries. I will definitely come back again to try more things because it looked amazing. I just wouldn't recommend that specific crepe!

    New to the area; local business with pretty good reviews so thought I'd check them out. FYI: you do need a mask, regardless of your vax status and you are not permitted to stay/eat inside yet. I noticed some Yelp reviews say they fail to mention this on their site. They do have a description of their parking capabilities on the web site, which was helpful. It's on a fairly busy main road. There is outside seating but it hasn't been nice enough out yet, and I haven't seen anyone taking advantage of the seating when I've driven by in the last few weeks. The people inside were nice, and helpful with questions and answers. There are a good amount of options to choose from. I got an iced dark raspberry mocha latte and an everything bagel with cream cheese and avocado. The bagel is nothing special but they did not skimp on the avocado at all. My coffee was delicious. Because I was taking the food to go, he did add a layer of aluminum foil over the bagel so it wouldn't lose any heat, which was nice. Pending consistency in quality of the next coffee, I think this is a cute little small business to support

    Strawberry Nutella crepe
    Michelle R.

    Loved the ambiance of this place. I needed strong WiFi to do some work while the kid played soccer and this place delivered. The food was ok and reasonably priced. Had the green monster and a latte. The crepe was hard to eat as the strawberries weren't sliced but it was still delicious. The donut was an interesting flavor but would have preferred more lemon flavor. It was also hard as it was later in the day. I will definitely go back and give it another try. There were only a handful of customers so no wait time to order and a choice of seating. The staff was so friendly and treated me like they knew me!

    Aesthetically pleasing, and relaxing environment

    Service was incredibly slow. Took over 45 minutes to get two paninis. There's almost no parking, and the food was mediocre.

And I also have the old fashioned. It was delicious. They made it with hard grapefruit seltzer that they brew themselves. It is very refreshing. I also tried the seasonal latte flight, a cider donut and the banana brûlée latte. I was very pleased with the peppermint mocha. It was minty but not overly so. The gingerbread latte was the best flavor. The cookie butter latte was good. And the vanilla cardamom was my least favorite. I would have liked more of the cardamom flavor. I like that you can try all the seasonal flavors but I would like it better if it was customizable instead of being preset. The service is pretty good. I think you can open a tab or you pay each time you order. There is no waitressing, so they call you up to the bar to get your order and you bring back your dishes to a corner of the counter. The bar/beer side was pretty slow service. I waited for a while to place my order but once I placed my order it wasn't too long before I received my drink.

    A "qualified 4."…read more Been a while, and I work in the area again, so an update after a couple years and a few morning visits. - Still a great vibe, with comfy seats for resting, eating, working, or playing checkers (which they provide), plus a view into the roasting area. - Still good coffee, with two rotating original roasts available daily (one lighter, one darker). - No longer are donut collabs with Donut Stand a Thursday thing. As for food: -- Cranberry Orange Scone: Superb. Slightly sweet, a little biscuity, with good moistness and understated glaze that lets the base shine. Sometimes warm. -- Chocolate Croissant: I doubt this is made in house. Flaky, yes, but something's off. Seems like a prefab product from the freezer section. You can do much better than this. -- Rugelach: Very rich with potent Nutella flavor. A little greasy, but in a good way. Small but packs a flavor wallop. -- Cinnamon Bun: Decent. Nice moist glaze and a somewhat dry winding dough. -- Brioche Bun: A small round braided number similar to a pain swisse but also a Scandinavian bun, with custard and chocolate chips. Innovative, but dry and rubbery. Good coffee and good atmosphere, but a mixed bag on the morning treats, with some hits and misses. Order what works for you and you should be happy, especially when comparing against similar places in the immediate area or distant 'burbs. Just don't expect Boston quality and you'll be fine.
