I brought my Italian boyfriend from Italy here and he told me its definitely 5 stars. Super friendly, great service, delicious coffee. He was surprised to see coffee made well like in Italy and taste great
5 for the Baristas and the Product. I go here a lot and they are one of the few places I can usually get a good Iced Americano. After their old crew left I was worried Id be hard pressed to get a good drink again, but theres a new guy there who makes them great every time. Wish I knew his name to give him the credit.
The best coffee Ive had in a while. Its perfectly roasted, fully bodied flavor without the bitterness and the acid. Latte I ordered is delightfully delicious! Creamy foam paired with velvety coffee. Made my day! ...
