The staff are fairly average, they greet customers and provide service relatively quickly. The prices are on the higher side, and I can see how a visit for desserts with the whole family could become quite expensive. Another drawback is the limited sizing options. For example, their drinks are only available in a large size, which may not appeal to everyone. I'm also not a fan of dining inside. There's something about the color scheme and overall atmosphere that makes the space feel less inviting and not particularly appealing for eating in.

It's very misleading from the front as it just looks like a little corner shop and you're not sure what's in it. The inside is very simple, not much decor or anything going on, but they offer a wide variety of smoothies, teas, fresh pressed juices, and other drinks including Boba. I got the berry smoothie with protein, and it was absolutely delicious. My friend got the strawberry fruit tea with Boba and it was also freaking delicious! Highly, highly recommend this spot! I heard they also have a second location in Rio Grande so I'm excited to try it out too.

I was surprised with their prices too, we paid under $12 for 2 of the 16oz drinks with added toppings which is really cheap here in the central coast compare to other places. Will come back to try more drinks. Keep in mind they only have 2 people working so might be a little wait though.

We went there three times in 2 weeks and loaded up on goodies such as take 'n' bake pizza, chili, and OF COURSE the clam chowder. We also hit the bakery pretty hard and thoroughly enjoyed the berry cobbler, along with a few other sweet treats. Location is easy to find, plenty of parking and service very friendly.

The server offered up some of their homemade green salsa from the back, which packed a major punch (and I say this as a spicy-seeker). Overall, the name of this dish was 100% spot on as it was messy as hell. It was a super generous serving and definitely covered two meals for me, which was impressive. It also came with a choice of more-different-carb, so I opted for a biscuit. It was surprisingly crispy on the outside and made for a nice contrast-y dessert bite when topped with their homemade jam. I recommend checking the spot out, and try to nab a seat outside.
