I'm not really sure what's going on here or why this place was so full of people. We were in the neighborhood and wanted to chat and have some coffee. This place had high reviews, so we stopped by. We had to wait in line out front, but thankfully not for long (only a few minutes).
The girl working at the counter was a bit rude and didn't acknowledge us at all. We eventually just started randomly ordering because she wouldn't even look at us. We got an iced latte, an iced coffee and a pastry. We were surprised that they didn't have an espresso machine and just used the coffee machines they have in hotel lobbies. Why start a cafe if you're not going to make coffee properly? The coffee was pretty bad as a result (who would have guessed?! lol) and the pastry was equally disappointing. It had zero flavor and felt like cardboard.
The space is pretty great. It's quite large, so there's lots of seats and we didn't feel pressured to drink quickly and leave. I'm just not sure what would make someone want to come back. Is it the shark theme? Is that all?...

We ordered: an iced chai latte with oat milk, a hot black coffee, a chocolate twist & a piece of strawberry cheesecake.
It was busy when we arrived but we were greeted with a smile & offered a table at the front of the shop.
The staff here are friendly & efficient. I would 100% recommend Shark Coffee.
** A small note - there is only 1 toilet so when it's busy there can be a queue, don't leave it until you are bursting to...
Read moreWe were looking for matcha and found this place. I highly recommend this place if you are looking for matcha. It tastes delicious and they let you pour it which I thought was pretty cool. The staff are extremely friendly and have great customer service. They allow dogs, when we were there there was 3 well behaved dogs. The place is clean and has clean restrooms. If you are looking for delicious Japanese matcha, good ambiance and a place to chill after walking a lot...
