Review The location is amazing!! 🌿✨ The atmosphere and setting are beautiful. The matcha latte was just average. Unfortunately, there were lots of fruit flies around the donut display, which was not very appealing. My niece had a cold caramel latte, but it was extremely sweet—almost like drinking candy. Overall, the location is definitely the highlight!

Really cool coffee shop with a suction system for transport beans to their roasting machines! They have a lot of different beans if you're a coffee connoisseur. I had Ethiopian coffee and it was really good (:

Nice baristas and good location but the roast quality itself is lacking. I came because my usual roaster was closed and I ran out of beans. I picked up Sumatra single origin and the flavor is nothing like tasting profile. I bought them whole and tried dialing it in 3 separate times but the coffee just comes out bitter and sharp. I suspect it’s due to bean quality. A lot of uneven colors and broken shells, overpriced too compared to others around the area.

This was my first visit, and I had an absolutely wonderful experience! The coffee I ordered was nothing short of amazing, bursting with flavor and warmth. The baristas were incredibly friendly, creating a welcoming atmosphere that perfectly captured the spirit of Halloween. I couldn't help but smile at the playful cat faces they wore – it added a unique charm to the whole vibe. I’m already looking forward to returning and exploring more of their menu!

One of the best iced mocha lattes I’ve had in a long time. High quality beans and delicious syrup, not too sweet. Really enjoyed this—would definitely go back to try out more items.
