From the perfectly mustached coffee guy to the oat milk, this is definitely going to be the hippest thing I do all day. I used Yelp to find this coffee shop, and when I arrived, I was a bit stunned to see that it was in a clothing store. At first, I almost thought I wasn't cool enough to drink coffee here lol. I worked up the courage to walk in, and it is the most adorable and efficient use of space!
The coffee shop opens at 7:30, although the store opens a bit later. The Mashburn thread of stores are all next to each other, but this one is in the children's/home store. There's an entrance from the parking lot, and an additional entrance from inside Westside Provisions (near JCT).
The aforementioned mustached man was really sweet and welcoming. The menu included all the typical espresso drinks (cortado, mocha, latte..) and a couple I hadn't heard of before. This is a bar for serious coffee drinkers, but also welcoming to someone who enjoys only the occasional latte. There are also some fresh pastries made by Alon's bakery.
Since it's a retail store, there's no room for seating or working inside. However - there is a ton of covered and uncovered outdoor seating, as it's right next to Jeni's and many other businesses.
