A Cup of Common Wealth — Restaurant in Lexington

I am currently sitting in your shop and I just want to shout out one of your workers. I came in and already felt welcomed by the barista, but it was what he did next that pulled at my heart strings. A man inside the shop who was special needs was trying to convey a better way to mop the floors. He was a janitor at his job. He got upset when he didn't think the other worker was absorbing his information. He became frustrated and angry and said he'd never come back again and that nobody wanted to listen to him. The barista calmly asked him to not leave and to take a seat to talk to him and explain what he was trying to teach the other worker. He sat there for a good 10 minutes and openly listened and praised the man for how smart he was and how their cleaning duties will now improve because of the man. He easily could have disregarded this man and let him leave in a huff, but he took the time to be a genuine human and make this man feel special before he left. Whoever this barista is, he deserves a trophy for his kindness. I will definitely be coming back here to enjoy your coffee. Oh yeah. This place has a solid cup of...

Stopping by to try this new coffee shop in town, I felt like I was cheating on my first love- TEA. In the last couple of years, I have started to acquire a taste for good coffee so when I saw this place pop up on yelp, I made sure to give it a try. Walking in, I noticed the bare minimum decoration that others have noted. The place can definitely use a bit more decorative touch but their friendly staff members definitely make up for what was missing. I enjoyed being welcomed right away by both people behind the counter. They very friendly and genuine. They talked to me about their "pay it forward" board which I think is a great idea. Next time I come, I might put a friend's name on the board to get them try this place. For this visit, I ordered a small cappuccino and a small cinnamon apple breakfast muffin, though it was already well into the afternoon. The muffin was the right size snack to go with the perfectly prepared coffee. I didn't have any complaints. I hope they start having a few more options of small baked goods, because everyone would enjoy something sweet with a great...

This place was absolutely amazing. A cup of coffee compared to Starbucks was cheaper and without a doubt tasted better!! Last Saturday I was having a terrible day because my car broke down right across the street by Thoroughbred Park. Me and my girlfriend have been trying to jump my car for at least 45 minutes and nothing would work and I forgot to mention that it was down pouring outside. We were so wet and cold and decided to go get warm in this coffee shop. It was a clear shot from the window of the shop to my car. They asked how my day was and I had to say that my car broke down and it won’t start so we are waiting for AAA, which took about an hour. We gave them our order and she said “This one is on us, and I hope your day gets better”. And that was so nice of them and it made my day so much better. They not only had amazing coffee but also the 2 ladies there were incredibly nice and were very thoughtful. I will indeed keep coming back with...
