Overheard a passerby mention that it’s a good place for coffee. So I de used to get a latte. Why not Yes - latte was yum Pastries look great too but I didn’t have any. Great location.

I had a nice time reading at this cafe in the morning. It gets very busy in the afternoon so I decided to try it early. The muffin filled with pastry cream and my cappuccino were delicious. I later noticed they have coffee breakfast / lunch options for under 10 and I really appreciate there is no computer tables so there's actually space to hangout. New cafe like the way cafes used to be. My only complaint is the machines are a bit too loud & it might benefit from some sound dampening there since it really echos through the space. I will definitely be back!

This place is perfect to work from. They have a nice selection of pastries and drinks to choose from. I worked from the coffee shop for about three hours and really enjoyed it. It did get a tad cold at times but overall easy environment to be in. As for food, we got the croissant and vegan brownie along with the mocha and chai tea latte which were all solid

A very nice cafe on a vibrant corner downtown. Used to be my favorite Starbucks cafe before COVID. I frequently visit this place for breakfast or coffee anytime of the day. Their oatmilk latte is amazing. I wish they would stay open past 9pm, specially on weekends.
