I really enjoy birch for a few reasons, one the atmosphere to the little shop is cute. It can be tough to sit sometimes because there is limited seating. There is a bar looking out that seats about 4 people and a table that seats 6 and most of the time you’ll find a few people there on their laptops.

I asked to have a latte in a larger cup, because I wanted an extra shot and the cashier insisted it couldn’t be done. Cool no problem, I didn’t get the shot. Moving on to this tiny shop, the barista proceeded to aggressively ask me to move from In front of the machine. However, allowed the next customer behind me to stand exactly where I was, without issue. There wasn’t anywhere for me to move to, so it was very uncomfortable in a room...
