    Such a fun little place! The owner was amazing at helping me select my coffee, I tried the white coffee for the first time in my life... It was delicious and unique. It is a little nook of nostalgia in the middle of busy Gilbert, I would absolutely go here again and tell my friends to try it!

    Maple bar latte

    Delicious lattes and super fun nostalgic aesthetic! I love a good coffee shop with a unique vibe. This spot is like stepping back into my childhood which was so fun. They have a ton of space inside and a patio. They have events and play 90's cartoons and movies! There have a bunch of VHSs and books! My husband got a caramel latte and I got an iced maple bar latte which actually tasted like a maple bar donut! Staff was incredibly nice and explained the spot to us. Also they have chalk for the patio which my 2 year old absolutely had a blast with. I don't get out to Gilbert a ton but this is definitely a spot worth making the trek out there for!!

    An iced Americano

    First, I'm all about a vibe. And a 90's vibe! Yes, please! I walked in and was immediately greeted by all three workers. My son immediately found comfort in the bean bag chairs, I was surprised he didn't take his shoes off! There was so much to see and look at, I wished I had more time to really look into every thing. I was surprised by the price for an iced americano, but #shoplocal . In fact the prices weren't listed anywhere I could see, but again, I'm all about supporting local businesses. There was a variety to the menu and some bakery items. Overall, definitely worth a visit. Next time, I'm gonna try to go kid free :)

    The cutest spot with the most adorable staff! 1000/10 recommend. The mango matcha, honey buns coffee, and the huckleberry peach vanilla redbull Italian soda A MUST TRY!

    3/21/26: cute place, great book selection, small patio outside, pet friendly. Limited in non-coffee drinks and not too many baked items. What I really liked was their encouragement to bring in your own cup for 10 cents off.

Whew, let me tell you... this girl is legit. And guess what? So is the coffee. I'm feelin all types of caffeinated and loved get it girl,

    Oat latte
    Natalie W.

    This place is a gem! So nice to visit a local family business. The coffee is excellent and the owner is so sweet and passionate about her craft! Such cute decor too

    Cake pop and iced Orangette

    Amazing drinks and adorable shop. The owner is so kind and truly cares about what she has to offer her clientele. You have to check out the patio if you come by, it's just as cute as the rest of the place!

    My boyfriend and I quite enjoyed our visit. I was really…read morecraving a fresh flavorful, savory croissant, and this fulfilled my craving. I opted for the Ham and cheese croissant, and the sausage croissant. Both breading was fantastic. Good flavor, airy yet crispy, just really well made. I will definitely come back for the ham and cheese croissant. The sausage croissant wasn't really for me (the bread was) it truly is a big sausage in there. It had good flavor, just isn't for me. If they could make just a plain cheese or bacon and cheese that would hit the spot lol We also got their regular cinnamon roll. The breading had a lovely sweet cinnamon flavor and the icing on top had a delicious creamy taste without being overly sweet. The odd part for us was the filling in the inside. I couldn't decide if I cared for it or not, I was almost feeling it was pushing the sweetness over just a bit so l may or may not get that again. Even tho they have seating inside, it feels more like a grab and go. You can def enjoy your item there. But I wouldn't say a spot where you can sit and catch up with a Friend or read a book. It also felt a bit too warm and stuffy so cranking down the AC a bit would help it feel more inviting especially from coming outside from the Arizona heat. I like to enjoy a warm beverage with my dessert and I couldn't imagine doing it in there. We opted to eat in our car Service was friendly and patient. We arrived on a Saturday around 1130 am and their was plenty of items available Can't wait to come back

As I looked around, I couldn't help but think that if I lived there, I'd probably be stopping in daily. The combination of a bakery and coffee house makes it the perfect neighborhood spot. Although I skipped the coffee this visit--it was mid-afternoon on a Sunday, and I wasn't looking for a caffeine boost--I'll definitely be back to give it a try. For this visit, we focused on the baked goods and sampled four items: the chocolate croissant doughnut, maple croissant doughnut, vanilla doughnut, and a red velvwtcupcake. Every single one was delicious. The croissant doughnuts were wonderfully flaky with just the right amount of sweetness, the vanilla doughnut was soft and flavorful, and the red velvet cupcake was rich and satisfying. It's rare to find a bakery where every item you try is a winner, but this one delivered across the board. Whether you're stopping in for coffee, a sweet treat, or both, this charming bakery is well worth a visit. I'll definitely be back.

Perhaps dining in is a better experience, I can't remember if they warm up the pastry but we took our maple, cheesecake croissant, and cinnamon roll to go. It tasted a day old. The croissant/ bread didn't taste fresh, almost stale. I opted to warm it up a bit, it was a bit better but then it just started feeling too sweet so I wasn't interested anymore. the cinnamon roll breading lacked flavor, but the cream on top was good. But again the bread dough just felt stale. It was a Sunday in the AM that we went. Not busy at all. Since it's a part of an apartment, parking is a little awkward and can feel tight. You could easily not notice the place and mistake it for being closed. It's right off of the round about. (the wind had blew over the open sign and the open sign wasn't lit) Service is okay, nice enough. Not really warm. Seating is ample and is cozy to sit and read or catch up with a friend.
