"A real cozy cafe with great coffee/tea and baked goods. A nice mixture of laptops and folks just meeting to chat. The cafe does seem to realize that there is a sweet balance between laptops usage and non-laptop human interactions. The tables have notices limiting the time folks can stay on laptops and I think the wonderful patio outback also has some limitations. Having gone on about the rules, the fact is this is a lovely welcoming place to have good refreshments."

"There is a real shortage of decent coffee shops around this area, and so it was a pleasant surprise to come across this place. They served a velvety smooth flat white with good microfoam, and they had a nice selection of coffee beans to choose from, too. The place was busy with locals, the pastries looked good, and the breakfast plates passing me buy looked delicious, and so I will be back."

"Friendly service except for the young white British guy who was a bit too busy to be kind. I ordered a pour-over coffee but he didn’t want to be bothered so he asked me how much and I was explaining thats a coffee, not beans. It took a minute for him to understand even though they have an entire pour-over setup on the bar. He was annoying… But the other workers were wonderful and the space is really lovely. Their coffee offerings are exciting and varied. Its a cool space to try single origins. There is a nice bathroom and copious amounts of indoor and outdoor seating."

"The new Brunch was fantastic! The chilli eggs, pancakes and the summer granola bowl were to die for. The coffee as always was perfection. Would definitely recommend:)"
