    Tried them for the first time. Coffee was good. Sandwich was delicious. I had the tomato, basil, and mozzarella. The only thing I had a problem with is the cupcakes were dry.

    I initially went in to try the chocolate croissants. Unfortunately they were all sold out. Try getting there early Bc their supply runs low towards the end. Chill place, awesome music nonetheless

    The coffee is organic and delicious and the eggplant tartare is damn good. The staff is warm and friendly.

    Nice jazz music on Sunday. Unfortunate that we waited ten minutes (after we paid-and tipped $1) for two lattes! Pumpkin bundt was yummy. Vanilla cupcake was barely edible.

    It's the little things like the 'anti-spill sticker' that make this place so incredible.

    My favorite coffee shop in Alexandria. Homey, "grounded", and delicious baked goods. Watch out for all the kiddies during peak afternoon hours!
