    The coffee and specialty drinks are fantastic! The food is also very good, whether just a muffin or a delicious sandwich for lunch. Worth a stop by any time!

    Plenty of seating, smartly decorated, loads of natural light, free wifi, decent amount of outlets, superb local coffee, extensive food options.. you really want for nothing here. Great for working.

    I am super pumped something cool went into this space! Great coffee, good food, nice staff, and cool atmosphere. Only thing I'm bummed about is no breakfast sandwiches, and lacking a bike rack.

    If there is an open seat, sit at the bar. Not only can you speak with the friendly staff and use the counter to type or read, but you may also have first dibs on free food or drinks!

    Good for a quick bite, or if you want to get some office space, I guess it can also work. I had a cobb salad, it was OK. My wife had West coast sandwich; in her opinion it had too much fig spread.

    The cortado is more the size of a cappuccino and the milk is delightfully creamy.

    Very nice place to sit and work but not that easy to get a table. Good variety of snacks to go with their coffee.

    Vegetarians looking for worthwhile meatless sandwiches: the West Coast sandwich is ON. POINT. Vegans are pretty much out of luck here, with the exception of soy milk for drinks.

    Their chocolate chip cookies are a bit unique--flaunting a slight cinnamon twist. Tasty! All the pastries are good here actually!

    The sandwiches are great and the smoothies stopped a cold in its tracks. But the best of all are the maracons :)

    The cider is DELICIOUS, which kind of makes up for them taking 20 minutes to toast a bagel.

    They either forgot to add Nutella to my latte or the Nutella latte doesn't taste like Nutella at all... Disappointed.

    Coffee is decent. Food is overpriced and just okay. Customer service leaves a lot to be desired.
