Read moreUpdate as of July 2024: Employees are still horribly rude, but the coffee is still good.
This is probably the nicest coffee shop in Victoria. They take their coffee very seriously and it shows. I've always sung its praises on my social media, but they need to step up their customer service. Last time I went, the employee was crouched behind the counter on his phone for several minutes before someone alerted him that there was a customer. Then I encouraged my husband to go and try it recently and he didn't receive good service.

We were only in Victoria for two days, and luckily found this place on our first day- and came right back for coffees the next morning. Also can highly recommend their fantastic matcha drinks which are amazingly well done! You can’t go wrong here- definitely pop...
