The guy that made my bagel was super rude and annoyed for some reason. He sort of yelled too when I asked him to repeat something. The bagel was good tho

Truly remarkable coffee. Food is above average for a coffee shop. Coffee definitely worth going out of your way for.

Cute place to sit and bagel sandwiches were decent but all the coffee tasted pretty bad, had a weird mechanical taste to it and we couldn't drink more than a third

Mediocre service. Tge coffee tasted old. The breakfast sandwich I ordered had a craft single slice that ruined the taste.

Cashier clearly messes up orders on purpose, foods good, always messes up drink order and then cries about it when it’s pointed out, little kid attitude !

Only giving 1 star because the coffee was good and that's partly because they had brown sugar out in the open for you to prepare as you wish but even then that raises the question of sanitation. However, my lack of the remaining 4 stars is due to the service. The man who works behind the register and prepares the food was incredibly rude. He not only stares at you with disgust, but gets your order wrong AND burns the bagels. The environment is just hostile and he stares at you while you eat. What a weirdo. Employees who pick and choose who they are nice to are entirely unprofessional.

Coffee is burnt, and croissant is soft. But location is pleasant and many regulars. Soothing.

Been here a few times. The first two I ordered Borgia which is pretty good. Third time I came I asked for a cappuccino and gave me something else. Forth time I ordered matcha mint chip latte and gave me matcha latte. I told the staff I couldn't taste the mint chip and that's when he said they don't have mint chip. Monday staff always messes up the order.

I got a latte, it was average. They are not environmental friendly, to-go cups are plastic also they don’t offer porcelain cups for here orders. Unfortunately, staff is rude too. My friend asked for the Wifi password and they told her she needs to order first. It turned out to be that the password was on the wall.

I love going back to this coffee shop. Mike, the owner is very sweet and Guillermo, his assistant is very hard working ?.

Menu and selection is top notch but I would say execution is very very mediocre for both food and drinks. Feels like quantity over quality which makes me sad to say cuz it’s a nice place.

The best cafe mocha and apple turnovers. The perfect atmosphere for a morning breakfast
