Okay so I didn’t go here on my last two layovers because of complaining reviews saying it was bad coffee and overpriced. Big mistake! I came here at the recommendation of a restaurant around the corner who’s barista was out sick. It’s the coziest, sweetest little spot. The baristas were friendly and service was super quick.

It almost tastes like a pack of cigarettes, especially the first few sips. After a few sips in, it is a bit more tolerable. Overall, it’s pretty bad considering the price. Do...
Read moreWish I noticed the 2 star rating before going but we wanted drinks after we did the country music hall of fame. First thing I saw was two sour faces, no greeting that made you feel welcome and the man who was at the counter first asked where the straws were and the person at the counter pointed behind him without saying anything and had attitude about it. And yeah also the drinks were also too expensive for the service we got and the drinks...
