TLDR: Probably fine for sweet drinks like lattes and frappes, not good for speciality or straight espresso.
I popped in for an afternoon caffeine buzz, and that’s about all I got. I did ask how they make their macchiato, and was impressed that they asked “do you want that traditional?” They at least know what it is. So I got a double macchiato and it had a nice large dollop of foam. It didn’t have any milk added to it, just the foam on top, which is fine, that’s how some people make a traditional macchiato.

Now the beans Mojo uses are good but the output quality is not as great as the similar grade beans Cosmic uses. Not to say it tastes bad in any way but that it doesn't taste as good as it could.
With all that said it is a really nice place with a good atmosphere and the drinks are delightful. Plus the internet is...
