I saw this place by chance, and decided a coffee sounded good. They have their seasonal specials posted outside and I ordered a pumpkin latte. It was super good and they actually handed it to me which was very nice. Staff is friendly, my coffee was delicious. I’ll definitely be back and be recommending to my coworkers (we work a few blocks away, so we are always looking for good coffee).

Have been in this area for over a decade now so I tried most of the coffee shops around, even when this location was a chocolate fish before. Anyway, the place looks like a nice addition to the building and even an upgrade. The coffee I ordered was the Iced Caramel Latte, it tasted fresh and met my standards. Coffee was prepared with care and effort, even was brought to my waiting table. Interior seems to be modern and nice. The outside has an appealing look too. Will definitely be back.

I stumbled on this place after a meeting in the area and was pleasantly surprised! Not only do they serve illy coffe (the best), they had plenty of seating and strong wifi. And the drinks were reasonably priced for the area. I ordered a chai latte which was ready quickly and tasted great. As I sat there I watched the barista and owner greet many familiar faces and deliver impeccable and friendly service to everyone. I'll definitely be back next time I find myself in the area during the work day!

Our first coffee & croissant after a 12 hour flight so I'm happy to report that the coffee was great and the croissant hot & packed with ham & cheese - delicious. Extra points for recognizing our kiwi accents.

I stopped by this coffee shop recently and had a really good experience. The place was very clean and cozy! The staff were very friendly and quick to help with ordering. I got a coffee and a breakfast bagel, which were both really good. It’s a nice spot to sit for a bit or grab something to go. I’ll definitely be back!
