The best coffee place to work from in the area. I had to find a place to work on my laptop for a while and this was the most comfortable, welcoming and less crowded in the area. I was happy with my matcha latte and the friendly & efficient service provided. Thank you!

This is the only place I can her a mocha that isn't pre sweetened. The pastry is fresh and yummy too. They let me bring my small and very well behaved dog inside with me. Quiet, clean, and well decorated. I would visit again the next time I come to the area!!
