The best I can say is they are consistent at being mediocre. I live locally and have stopped in for a latte or coffee a number of times along with a pastry. I have tried the cookies, the bread and the muffins. I had a latte today and a blueberry streusel muffin. I could have had this latte at anywhere, certainly nothing to talk about, certainly no flavor from the underlying coffee beans. They must have used skim milk and not really frothed. Latte at best is a two. The muffin was definitely made a few days ago. It was very very dry and no flavor. I took two bites out of the top and threw it out.

Jeff, had an awesome conversation with us. I had the fruit cheese croissant,, my dad couldn't choose between the olive croissant & pistachoes muffin. We shared the muffin. If I wasn't from Wisconsin, this would be my normal coffee hangout. But, since I am. Definitely, will be having a cup with I...
Read moreI stopped in last weekend over the 4th of July for the first time, in the morning. It wasn't overly busy when i was there. There were only two couples in front of me and a handful of people sitting inside / outside. I am assuming they have an early rush crowd. There was one woman working the register and making the coffee/teas, but the line moved pretty quick. I ordered a Chai tea, blueberry and lemon muffins and a fruit pastry. All were excellent. They do have a fairly good selection of pastries, etc., and plenty of seating space. I'd recommend a visit if you...
