I was so pleasantly surprised when I finally visited today. I come to Lancaster regularly for business trips and never ventured into square one because I thought they'd be snobby and wouldn't have what I like to drink (I'm not a hardcore coffee drinker).
Lucky for me my coworker picked this place to meet today so I was so happy that I happened to ask if they do matcha lattes with almond milk (it's not on their menu), and they do! Not only that but they also do a lavender matcha also! I went with the plain because it's not sweetened (though the almond milk slightly is, which is normal for most places so I'm not complaining).
I was also worried they wouldn't have much food options (again thinking it was a more hardcore/snobby coffee spot). Very pleasantly surprised to find a good variety of pastries, multiple gluten-free options, and also fruit!!! Apple slices+pb! A perfect alternative for those who may be avoiding dairy (the other spots in downtown seem to love serving fruit with either yogurt or cheese), so I was really pumped on this also.
To top all of this off the woman who took my order was soooo nice even though I am not particularly hipster or coffee-snobby or anything. (Yes I've had experiences at other shops where ppl made me feel very out of place or whatnot for what I order).
This is definitely my go-to spot from now on when I'm in town! Thanks for a great experience, SQ1!! read more
