    The coffee was good, but I don’t think I’ll probably come back because the price paid for the quality was just not worth it in my opinion. Additionally, the service was pretty disappointing. I stood at the counter for 8 minutes before someone came over to help me, which if they were busy, I understand, but nobody acknowledged me to say they needed a minute, etc. They just stood in front of me, looking at me but never taking a second to just say they were busy or explain what was going on. I was super confused because I didn’t know if they thought I’d already been helped or if they were annoyed by me standing at the counter, etc. It was just very weird and a bit frustrating to have no idea what was happening (if they were busy, confused, etc.) I was planning to get lunch, but everything in the case looked old and stale and I ended up getting food from the gas station next door because it was much cheaper and was better than what my friend bought. The space was cute and decorated with festive accessories for winter/fall! :) Not really many places to sit, though.
