Extremely disappointed with Batch. Yesterday, I visited with a friend who has a severe nut allergy. We asked if Batch is a nut safe establishment, and were told that though cross contamination is possible, they could safely prepare her a coffee. Well, after one sip of her coffee, she started having an allergic reaction. She was served a MACADAMIA NUT MILK latte after being reassured that the barista making her coffee was made aware of her allergy - clearly not.

The cafe has coffee and non-coffee options and they even have a variety of smoothies, juices, specialty drinks, and toasts and wraps. The owner is often at the register and she knows the locals who come in. This is such a nice experience worth the...
