Alejandro Torres FríasJanuary 3, 2018The friendly personnel and excellent drip coffee!! They offer Dark, Medium and Light roast alternatives, so it’s cool. I haven’t tried the empanadas yet but have heard they are very good.
- Andrea NeimanFebruary 8, 2016Try the chicken with cilantro empanada. Amazing! And their coffee is great. The staff is so friendly they even bothered to make me a latte frappe from scratch vs using pre mixed ingredients.
- Great coffee, a number of different types of empanadas - all tasty, friendly staff and great prices too!
