I have the pleasure of usually seeing Keira behind the counter and she is fabulous! I think she has a really good read on the people who want to chat and those who are just there for their order. She's a great person to chat with if I have the time/if the shop isn't too busy. Love the retro/funky vibe this location has and how different it is from the boho vibes of the sister store in Reading. There are always fun specials with a pop-culture theme and I haven't had something I disliked thus far! That being said, I'm familiar with Herbalife and the type of nutrition products they sell.

This is one of my favorite places to grab my morning caffeine and catch up with the team! The teas offer a feeling of clean energy that I've really grown to love as I've moved away from coffee. Also, I love seeing how involved this store is with the community--They have hosted some amazing events in the Woburn community and I love seeing local businesses, teachers, and police officers at the cafe everyday. Empower is truly doing some amazing community-building work, which I really value...And that's not to say that their teas aren't also ADDICTING. Can't...
