I really want to love this place, as well as the one downtown, but i just don’t. I’ll start off saying what i do love: small business, i LOVE the aesthetic, i love the art and artistic vibe and cool people who seem go come through, and i love that it seems to be a community space for studying and open mics. This evening i ordered a Vanilla Freeze. It was under the category “alternative’s”, as in, alternatives to coffee. I got it and it was nasty and had an espresso shot floating in it. I brought it back thinking maybe i misunderstood what i ordered and i asked her what a vanilla freeze was and her response was “i dont know, no one really told me so i just put xyz together”. She was very friendly and made me something else but jeez. Train your staff dude. She was also working alone. Ive come other times and espresso often tastes verry bitter and burnt. If you like sugary coffee drinks and frappes, this place will do you fine. If you like coffee and lattes with no sugar, this place is not for you at all. Cool place to hang, bad quality drinks and poorly trained staff.

Third times the charm! My first time here I tried the Leonardo, and I thought it was ok. My second time I tried the Marilyn Monroe because I thought white chocolate + raspberry would be great together, but I am realizing that I am not a fan of coffee. I literally only consume it because I need a boost. And today I came here during my lunch break and I was going to get a Matcha tea latte, but they didn’t have any Matcha left (sad) so I went for a piña colada smoothie. It is amazing! My first few times here I also worked on a personal projects after I got off the clock. I like that they’re open later in the day (until 10, I think) and I love their cozy atmosphere.

Wow, if I were a regular coffee goer, and wanted a place to hang out, this place is where I would go. The specialties are amazing, we tried the Marilyn Monroe and Brad Pitt. I liked the Monroe over Pitt personally but it’s very unique, tasty coffee. The atmosphere is down to Earth. I feel like it gives an Asheville vibe. The music while I was there was 90’s alt/grudge which fits the atmosphere. Give this place a try for the coffee, and the atmosphere! I love this place. Wish I knew about this place earlier and makes me wish I attended UNCG for college. Good feelings all around.

Best coffee and workspace in town.

Outdoor patio, video game lounge, drinks of all sizes and shapes, Pride friendly, awesome staff like Don....

I could go on.....

And I will, many times.

This space hosts open mics and could DO even More Live Music or Deejay sets to draw real quality crowds.

EDM, hip-hop, Acoustic acts! Question the regulars.. What do people want to hear and show up for?

Geez, get a booking agent ;) I'm sure there are more than dead heads around the other nights of the week haha!

L9ve Nate Shockley's Art and the display area could use a spruce up. Bring in some plants and tend to the garden out front in the smoking area with some new varieties of seeds, vegetables, or whatever the owner and staff want to grow and you would be a winner.

In Greensboro its not hard to find coffee or a lounge. It's tough to find the right corner. And some GOOD live music. Walker is the area; when Suds is a dud and Wahoos cheers for the wrong Cavaliers... This is still worth a 5 star trip.

I've been in Denver, Colorado for the last 7 years, but when I visit Greensboro or stick around like a local. This is the open spot. Just get creative like some other businesses making great impressions in boom towns like Boulder or Portland and you could win over even more hearts!

Dopest little coffee shop I've been to in awhile. Close to home and accommodating as hell. I will say, however - I would prefer smoothies made with fresh fruit, and a barista who can make a mean chai. I got a dirty chai the other day was EXTREMELY weak on the chai, tasted like a straight latte with no chai, (I've been a Batrista in the past, I understand how this is made and have made several hundreds of them over the years).. Also would state I ended up spilling this chai latte in entirety, I guess it was the middle of shift change neither barista offered to help towels or anything I had to ask them (it was plain sight in the front yellow booth) I was devastated because I had gotten it all over my school work and laptop, I would have enjoyed at least the offering of napkins , towels, a mop, something . I wasn't looking for a free drink, I spilled it on accident but.. I would have done things differently if I'd of been working there. The individual who came in after shift change though, you could tell she was extremely personable, had great energy, and very polite to everyone. The other dude was obviously ready to go. It was just annoying. Customer...

My friends & I actually became frequent regulars here lately, but I have decided that its time to find another shop. I got the Iced Brad Pitt , which has peanut butter & hazelnut. The peanut butter was very obviously just plopped into the cup with the coffee, not being mixed in at all. The iced coffee was almost as thick as a milkshake, which I immediately could not stomach, it was chunky and gross. Even after trying to mix it myself, it was still gross and too thick to enjoy. Ive gotten this drink hot and iced and it has never disappointed this bad, the peanut butter has never been visible in the cup nor thick enough for me to notice. The main reason I am writing this review is not because of the coffee, but because of the way I was ignored about fixing the issue after the fact. I just wanted a replacement for my wasted money but that ask was ignored. $7 down the drain. Their answering machine says send a message to them, but it will not likely be answered (i was left on read). Just unprofessional to not respond to a concern about your business, especially when it is very clear that they saw the complaint, and did not make an effort to reach back...
