This coffee shop is located in my old stomping grounds. I know this side of Stella Link so well, and I'm pleased to see it's starting to get some worthy coffee spots
Nestled in a small shopping outlet, this spot comes highly recommended. I went by here a couple times at various times of day, and it's always busy. This would be one of the only things that is somewhat annoying is that it's a small space with limited seating and surface area, and it always seems to be packed. I even went on a Friday afternoon at 2-3pm and I had to wait for a seat
If you are a coffee lover this place is for you. They have all the classic specialty drinks as well as some signature options. Their pastries are all made in house by hand. They have exotic and varieties of coffee beans you won't find at your typical coffee shop. I ordered the pour over Gesha Natural. And while it was a $20+ cup of coffee it was some of the best coffee I've had
The manager or owner was talking to friends when I was at the counter then looked at me without words as if to say "what do you want" without saying anything. I didn't love this. But the barista that took care of my order and then meticulously prepared my almost artisanal drink was a delight. This individual was not only informative, and a skilled professional barista, but they also were incredibly polite
Some tips:
If you are a coffee lover or hipster, definitely take a look at the pour over list. The bean costs change based on market value, but it's well worth it. You can always take your drinks to go. Also, you can purchase beans there as well
Cheers!!
