I got an avocado toast and an iced horchata latte. The baristas were very friendly and multiples during the 3 hours I was there, someone was cleaning the tables and keeping the cafe clean.

I was in the area for a tire and in desperate need of coffee. I asked the barista which to get and they recommended the horchata latte, I got it with half the sweetener, iced and it was perfect. I even splurged and got a the tomato & mozzarella empanada (also recommend by the barista) chefs kiss! Came with a chipotle sauce of some kind and so fresh. I also opted for the spinach, egg and cheese empanada which was also delicious. Will definitely be back when in the area.

First time here and almost cried. This cafe is evidence of pure human evolution. No color lines! Besides the vibe the the oatmeal cookie was so good! The espresso was fresh and the prices ....fair!

I can't say enough good things!!!!! Their horchata latte is the BEST in the city, and their community involvement and everything they stand for is an inspiration. I love that they do curbside service via the Joe app, too - perfect for when my babies are with me.

Sterile environment with no personality. The food feels like it comes from Costco. Tables are tiny; chairs uncomfortable. Service was largely incompetent. Never going back.
