Came to the grand opening to try a few things.
The staff are wonderful. Very knowledgeable and eager to help in any way they can. Great customer service.
The ambiance is nice. I like that the ordering area is right in front of you when you walk in, and that the boards with menu items are above. Off to the right are pastries and to the left is the gelato. Along the left wall are some two tops and to the right are some four tops. So, you can come here in a group, or on your own.
The food: I asked for a tester of the strawberry cheesecake gelato. This was good. A little bit icey, but good flavor.
My partner ordered a scoop of the chocolate chip in a cone and enjoyed it. I thought his was a little icey as well, but again had good flavor.
There was a picture of a bagel with avocado and tomato on google maps, that I wanted to try. I asked what it was bc I didn’t see it on the menu and they said it was the avocado toast. They offered to put it on a bagel, and I asked if cream cheese could be added. This bagel is fantastic. It’s so fresh. And you can see how perfect the avocado was; it was perfectly ripe. They also added some olive oil and her , but they left off the feta and tomato. I think those two toppings would have made this epic. Nonetheless, it was yummy.
The drinks: I ordered a chai tea latte because they said they made their chai syrup in house. When I tasted it, I realized they made it in water first, rather than in milk, and it wasn’t spicy like a traditional chai. I could taste cinnamon, but I didn’t taste cloves, cardamom, black pepper, anise, ginger, etc. This was okay. Next time I might try one of their tea bags because they have a large selection.
My partner ordered a mocha. He said it was good.
Parking: They have a shared lot out front and we were able to find a space without issue.
Overall impression: I intend to come back to try more of their food items and other teas. The people who work here are wonderful and the...

This place is just absolutely amazing. I live in the area and have been meaning to try them everytime I pass by. Today, I made a doordash order while at work. I guess my order was difficult to understand because an employee actually called me to clarify so it isn’t made wrong!!! The only part that was slightly inconvenient is the fact my dasher made another delivery while having my food but that’s completely unrelated to the actual establishment. When I received the food, I was so impressed. It was put into a very professional cardboard container instead of cheap styrofoam and the display of the food was so amazing. I should’ve took a picture!! The avocado toast is TO DIE FOR!!!! Avocado toast is one of my top favorite foods and this was by far, the most amazing avocado toast I’ve ever had. I also got a macchiato which I didn’t have high hopes for because it’s only a coffee but it was also the most amazing coffee I’ve tasted!! Definitely 10/10 & I will absolutely be ordering...
Read moreI stumbled upon this charming café during a spontaneous drive around Crestwood. It was about an hour after an initially canceled volunteer event in Midlothian, and the weather conditions that had made the original event impossible had miraculously improved, allowing me to make it to the rescheduled date. After an Oak Forest job interview, I found myself back in the area and decided to stop by since I was actively job searching.
The café exudes a calming and cozy atmosphere. The barista, a friendly and attentive individual, prepared my mocha with oat milk to my exact preferences. I was pleasantly surprised to discover that they offer vegan options, which is a great asset for me as a vegan. By then, I had already ordered my coffee, but I decided to keep the vegan sandwiches in mind for the future.
Overall, I had a wonderful experience at this café. It’s definitely a place I’ll be recommending to others, especially my boyfriend. I already hope to plan a future date...
