Today, I had the pleasure of trying the Muy Fresa Matcha, a genius blend of strawberry-flavored horchata with the earthy goodness of matcha. To say it was divine would be an understatement. The first sip was a revelation, a perfect balance of sweetness that felt like a symphony to the taste buds, an experience that truly knocked me off my feet.
We didn’t stop at drinks; the pastries, warmed to perfection, were the cherry on top of an already delightful visit. They complemented our drinks so well, enhancing the overall experience.
But what truly sets this place apart is the warmth and welcoming nature of the staff. Barista Ashley and owner Sandra were incredibly sweet and welcoming. They noticed it was our first time and took their time to help us navigate the extensive menu to find exactly what we wanted. Ashley’s enthusiasm was contagious, and it was clear she truly enjoyed her job. Every business should have someone like Ashley who greets you with a smile and is excited to share what they have to offer.

I decided to get the sin-sin with strawberry horchata in it and omg the flavor combinations were spectacular. My husband got the dirty dirty horchata and that was delicious and caffeinated. I also got a blueberry bagel with caramelized cream cheese on it and 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼😘😘😘 all the chefs kisses in the world to that! Pricing is great! Service is amazing!!!

Read moreI recently had the absolute pleasure of visiting But First Cafecito, and let me tell you, the customer service is nothing short of amazing! The staff radiates warmth and hospitality, making you feel like a valued guest from the moment you walk in. They are more than happy to explain drink combinations, ensuring you find the perfect match for your taste! Every visit has been a consistent delight, with the same incredible service and mouthwatering drinks.

Regardless, the positive experience keeps me...
