The cookie & the mocha coffee were incredible. The staff were friendly & gracious. The mocha had a very unique flavor. At first, I tasted chocolate, but a couple of seconds later, the coffee notes came through beautifully.

Tried every other specialty cafe before coming here, & cantook beats all of them. They have the best coffee taste & cookies that pair perfectly with it.
The interior is the prettiest too, with cozy ambient music.

Excellent coffee (& unbelievable prices)! They don't sell food (just some small cookies) so I suggest buying a pastry from the patisserie nearby & sitting outside with your coffee.

Ordered: flat white, hazelnut chocolate chip cookie, & iced chai.

The flat white was smooth & a little nutty, not at all sour, & server at the right temperature. A 5/5 coffee. As a sweet treat, the cookie was tasty, with large chunks of hazelnut, & paired nicely with the coffee. There was another occasion when I tried the matcha cookie which is probably made with almond flour. The chocolate chip cookie wins decisively against it.

Incredibly, despite how tasty & well-made the coffee was, the iced chai stole the show. Richly milky, probably sweetened with some homemade flavored syrup, & spiced the right amount, it's without a doubt the best I have ever tried. Highly recommend.

I can't comment on the food/cookies. The coffee selection is large & the staff have a good know-how on where the coffee has been harvested & how they have been processed. I believe they have direct contact to some of the plantations in Costa Rica & are directly involved in parts of the process. They are very helpful with any questions you may have in regards to the different coffee beans they sell & take their time. The atmosphere is cozy. Recommend to come here!
