    Went here for studying around finals. Awesome environment, haven't experienced the poor service people talk about AT ALL. Ordered the maccha latte and the spiced white chocolate--both were excellent

    If you dont rate this coffee shop at least a 9 you have no idea what good coffee is. This place is known across the US as great coffee--although the staff is not the greatest normally.

    These people never learn. We stopped going here because of the attitude. They forget your order, no apologies, nothing. Good lattes, bad vibes!! 🤔

    The espresso uses Intelligentsia's Black Cat beans; the Japanese matcha tea is mixed with a bamboo whisk.

    Pass on the iced latte. They don't even pull shots, they just use iced coffee... Not a real latte...
