The sheer amazement I find myself in EVERY time I enter this adorable coffee shop, is astounding. I have never been so In love with with a place until I found this shop. Every coffee I have had thus far has been nothing short of perfect. Every treat I have tasted has been nothing short of the most delectable thing to have ever graced my taste buds. The energy is so peaceful even when there’s a buzz of business, it remains such a relaxing environment that people can continue their work without the fear of feeling distracted. The staff is just as amazing and sweet as well. You’re not just a customer walking in! This find has been a change of pace when I get to work. I pop out to get a coffee and breakfast or lunch, than head back full of energy just from the amazing authenticity of the employees positive and welcoming attitudes. The drinks and food are so creative that it’s apparent there are no limits to what these people can do! A simple thing like, avocado toast, gets transformed into something new that makes your jaw drop and mouth water at the thought. I went in for a second slice within a few hours just because I was so addicted after one piece. When I say you’re missing out if you never take the time to try this place, I mean the only reason you wouldn’t, has to be because you don’t want to smile for the rest of your day just thinking about how you found your new...
Read moreThis place is incredible. I was looking for a coffee shop in the West End-ish area that wasn't Starbucks (like Starbucks...just wanted to check out something new) and stumbled upon this place. Espresso was incredible...colapranzo meal was insane (eggs with 1 of 4 chosen flavors...I chose pesto...in combo with bread and prosciutto.) I've now come here twice in 3 days and plan on coming again tomorrow.
Today...I ordered my food/espresso and realized by 2 yr old had taken by credit cards out of my wallet when she was playing with it last night. They were going to let me eat free and pay next time...amazing customer service. Instead, my wife got me out of the 18th century and helped me set up Apple Pay so I could pay. Since it took me 5 minutes on the phone with my wife to set up Apple Pay, the owner insisted that he remake my espresso since he wanted to serve me something fresh. The delay was my fault so I wanted to drink the original but the service is that good that he insisted and remade it...so cool. The food, atmosphere (have WiFi also), and people are awesome. Please check...
Read moreCozy, independently owned coffee house with very good paninis and espresso beverages. Italian ownership shows in the menu, availability of wine and beer, and laid back style. You pay for your entire order only as you leave, which encourages people to settle in for conversation, reading, or a little quiet work. Tables for singles or small groups, plus a conversation area in the back with sofas and bookshelves.
The crowd is a mixture of young suburbanites, moms with kids on errands, and retirees socializing. Usually two workers on duty, which can make the food service a bit slow, but that's only a problem if you are in a big hurry.
Great West End alternative to the four, five, or six Starbucks out here.
"Meet you at Starbucks?" "Which one? The one at the mall?" "No, the other one at the mall." "Not the one across the street from the mall, right? The one kind of at the mall but not -in- the...
