I had the best veggie sandwich of my life here! The naughty avocado croissant sandwich was mind-blowing and the coffee was great. The people are really nice and they have a big, cool space to work in. Love this place!!

I arrived on a rainy day and was greeted with the warmest welcome. They made the drinks fast and delicious. The environment was everything and more. Sometimes it gets loud but sometimes it is super quiet like a library where people are focusing. I can thrive in either environment so I enjoy it. Their drinks, their food, and just the staff are so friendly.Now the place itself is such a vibe!! From the cyber car to just the place of comfort to do work is very accommodating. My favorite part is that they provide things to do if you just want to chill from the board games to chess to just sitting comfortably. The only thing is that it does get a bit cold but they have blankets I do suggest one brings a warm jacket, especially during this time of year. When it gets warmer it will be an optimal spot to study, do work, or just enjoy the space. I hope that there are future events soon as well as if there are any part-time positions!! I would apply!!

The espresso is great. The food isn’t bad. But the music is awful. The loud techno music that they blast is uninviting. I frequent this shop a few times a week for the espresso but never stay longer than 10 mins because of the music. It’s like being at a club. Even when I wear headphones I can hear the music. And it’s a shame because the shop is spacious and really nice. But I’d never meet someone for coffee there.Dietary restrictions: Vegan options

This morning I stopped in at Panera for a bagel and was left so utterly disappointed by their stale sad excuse for one, that on the way home I asked Google to find me another bagel joint on my route. Decided to give this place a shot and felt like I walked into Willy Wonka’s factory. It was bright, fun, people were super nice, and the back patio/coworking space was just a vibe. And it was the best bagel I’ve had in a while. Will definitely be back as a remote worker

I'm amazed I only discovered this gem now! Tried their dirty chai and it was fantastic. The customer service was top-notch, and the atmosphere is perfect for getting work done, with ample space and a selection of game boards for hanging out with friends. Def coming back here again!!

It’s rare I give a full 5 star review, but Awakening deserves it and is my favorite coffee spot. They’re always kind, friendly and on point with their service. Food and coffee are delicious! I have so many I love it’s hard to list just one. Their non-caffeinated beverages are tasty too, Jack’s Ginger Tonic and the Lavender Haze latte are favorites.And a super nifty bonus are their enamel pins! I have a hard time starting conversations with people, so my pins on my jean jacket never lead me astray lol.I haven’t had the chance to check out their coworking and studio spaces yet, but once I get started on my next short film, I will definitely be checking it out.
