The interior is small and cozy, with a well-designed layout. A central workstation features a large table with seating for 4-6 people. However, the chairs lack back support and are quite uncomfortable - I ended up standing for the two hours I was there. The café offers Wi-Fi and has four outlets for charging devices. A small iced Americano costs $4.75 (tax included, no tip), though prices don't appear to be displayed anywhere in the store. The pastry selection is limited. Music consists of slow, relaxing tracks that match the café's ambiance, but the volume is a bit too high for conversation or focused work. Service was excellent - very friendly and polite.

I've had better matcha elsewhere but would return to try other drinks and for the ambiance of the cafe! A bit of a hidden gem if you like...
Read moreFinally had a chance to try this adorable little local neighbourhood coffee shop that's tucked away and under the radar. Got my order to go, but there's a small cozy space inside with seating.
Service was friendly and my alt-milk cappuccino was perfect. Baked goods are brought in from a local baker - my croissant was a little on the small side and also a little on the saltier side (I tend to like my croissants a tiny bit sweet), but flakiness and texture were good.
10/10 would go back. Will probably be my new go-to for a local coffee run since it's closer than the Common (Abell) or Sam James (Brock) and I prefer the coffee over nearby Wallace (no offense to Wallace, just a personal preference for the roast they're using...
