    I've been coming here frequently for the past 5-6 years to grab a Large Chai Latte w/extra chai, as it's the best Chai in town. I rarely have a chance to come during the week, so Saturday is my day. However, lately it's been hit or miss. Last 3 trips were subpar; last week, I got the Extra Chai in both drinks but cups were half full. This morning, not only were the cups half full but only 1 Chai had the extra Chai, when I ordered and paid extra for both. Not sure what this is about, but something I will be keeping in mind for my next latte trip.

    So I came in to start my week with great coffee and to go to the park with my dog before work....it usually never an issue but this morning the two girls that were in there just wasn't with it today....they messed up my order for a coffee bag and I had to point it out and they took their time. The entire order time was 15 mins were didn't allow me to continue my day how I planned it so thanks to those two girls taking their time this morning without any regards of other people...coffee is great, service can be a lot better

    Went here Thursday morning close to noon since I was in the area. The inside was very cozy and cute. It was my first time here, so l asked one of the ladies some questions while I was ordering. She was very helpful and friendly with recommending her favs. I ordered a Caramel and Toasted marshmallow frappe (8/10) it was pretty good and a Breakfast sandwich (9/10) it had ham, egg, and cheese; the cheese was melty and the croissant was nice and flaky. I def see myself retuning soon; I wanna try their seasonal flavors before they get switched as well as some of their pastries. My overall rate of experience : 8.5/10
