Cast Iron Coffee — Restaurant in DeKalb Township

Nice atmosphere. It's nicely decorated and there's a decent amount of seating, so you could hang around for a while. The baristas were very friendly. I was here twice during my stay in Dekalb and tried the pistachio latte with and without an added espresso shot, and a few pastries. I loved the pistachio latte. The espresso adds some depth to it but it's very good without, good for if you want something without caffeine or just something different. The cinnamon bun was very good. Super soft, almost croissant-like dough. The cream cheese frosting was delicious but there was way too much of it and a glaze drizzle on top of that that was totally unnecessary. It wasn't that big of a deal since the excess frosting just sort of slipped off. The blueberry muffin was okay but for my taste a little too sweet/cakey.

Genuinely what is going on here? Never in my life have I had to pay for espresso on the side. This was a $10 drink (the smallest size mind you). Tired of small coffee shops stealing my money. This is why I go...
