Seemed like the most popular café in Downtown, so I stopped by to try a couple of their summer specials. Tried the Blueberryzen and Coconut Dreams Cold Brew.

Unfortunately, their cold foam machine was down, so the Coconut Dreams ended up just being a regular cold latte with a faint hint of mocha syrup. Could barely taste any coconut. Drinkable, but nothing close to what the name promised.

Blueberryzen was essentially a blueberry matcha latte, with the blueberry component served as foam. Both elements were unsweetened, so it ended up tasting like a very mild blueberry matcha milk. Refreshing as a summer drink, but not something I’d come back for.

NXT is short for "Next cup of coffee ☕". Well, I am not that quick on the uptake, "Iceberg ! Right ahead!" "Huh? What?", that is for sure. I like the name 📛. They have pour overs!! Columbian or Ethiopian coffee ☕! They are reasonably priced!!! There Columbian Pour Over is a taste of Heaven on Earth 🌎🌍! The chocolate croissant 🥐 was good 😊 though it tasted very familiar. The PBB Toast with sliced almonds was good 👍! Very, very friendly service! The owner and her staff were great 👍 👍! I enjoyed talking to them and we had a chance for a great conversation! I like their selection of books 📚 to read. The bathroom was in good shape. I don't remember if they have a grab bar. Window 🪟 🪑 seating was enjoyable. 🎨 Artwork , ceramics and photography for sale. Update: August 2025; Cinnamon rolls were okay but the chocolate croissants rule! A must visit and I will visit again and...
