    Try the Mexican Mocha for a cool twist on an otherwise common drink.

    Try cheering up the employees, they seem really stressed all the time! It gets busy!

    After being told by the owner that I was not welcomed in his coffee shops, because he thought I looked to old and not artistic enough, I stopped spending $5 to $10 a day there.

    Great coffee shop but agree with the others that the wifi sucks. Still worth your visit, though.

    It's not that the wifi was slow, it kept cutting out on me. If you need a reliable connection I wouldn't recommend it.The music was good until they started skipping songs mid song.

    They should learn how to take orders! If I ask for capuccino, I don't want it to be poured around from cup to cup - that distroys the idea of capuccino!

    Their small coffee cup just got a lot smaller. Might as well just get a medium.

    Don't go here for the wifi. It sucks. Go here for the eclectic music, cool MCAD artwork on the walls, retro atmosphere, and good coffee. Don't expect to get any Internet work done.

    Definitely a "student" or "hipster" type of coffee shop. Decor is cute but the Frappe here is just not good. The shots are not strong enough.

    This place has potential but their owner doesn't really know shit about coffee and their baristas cannot make an iced mocha latte to save the world. Avoid at all costs.
