Was hoping Dime would match the cute decor and location, but it had an awful atmosphere. Said hello to cashier taking my order and she didn’t even smile back she immediately said what do you want while rolling her eyes. Food was fine but didn’t come out with everything we ordered. The whole atmosphere was quiet and rigid, you could tell other guests vibes felt the same way. I do not plan on returning

More expensive than it should be, but good food/coffee.

Such a cute location but not a very good coffee shop. The food didn’t look or taste fresh. Baristas spent most of their time talking to each other than taking my order. It wasn’t a very welcoming environment at all.

I can’t speak highly enough about The Dime when it comes to their pizza. They have the “best” gluten free pizza. I know when someone says something is the best it better be exceptional. My wife and I have tried numerous gluten free pizza options, and all I can say is The Dime’s is delicious! The fig and prosciutto with hot honey is amazing! I have also tried their regular crust pizza, which is very good. The white pizza is another favorite of ours. If you are looking for an evening on the porch with a pizza and a glass (bottle) of wine, then do not miss this opportunity. Not just another pizza joint.
