This is my favorite coffee shop, and I can tell you why in one word, Consistency.
The espresso drinks are very consistent. I know exactly what I'm going to get here every time, and I like that.
The espresso drinks here are made with care. The barristas take the time to accurately measure out the freshly ground coffee. The coffee beans they use here are good quality. The cappuccinos are always delicious.
Delicious because the baristas here know their job and do it well. It seems to me that there is a fair amount of employee turnover here, but it doesn't matter. All the employees are clearly well-trained. They always have a friendly smile and are very efficient.
That last attribute is important because this place gets crazy busy. It's not unusual for there to be a line out the door. That tells you a lot, because there are plenty of places to get coffee nearby with no line at all.
The pastries here at Singing Sun are really wonderful. The Citrus Olive Oil Cake in particular is the bomb! If you see them in the case definitely do not fail to get you one! The Sugar Buns are fire too.
Now, I'm not a Vegan, but I love Vegan-friendly businesses. And Singing Sun is definitely Vegan-friendly! They always have a really good selection of Vegan items for sale in their cold case. So many really delicious looking items!
Singing Sun has a very inviting atmosphere. There are lots of places to sit, including a wonderful banquette along the front windows.
There are a few tables, usually occupied by young students with textbooks or adults who bring their laptop trying to keep that "working from home" thing going.
Another thing I love about Singing Sun is their merchandise. They sell all kinds of cool stuff, not just Coffee Beans and Coffee Mugs.
There is a rack right next to the Cold Case that features upcycled garments that have been emblazoned with the Singing Sun logo. I have seen some fantastic items on that rack!
So, yeah, all the above is why I love Singing Sun Coffee. There are probably 20 other coffee shops closer to where I live but this is where I like to go. Because they are so consistent, Singing Sun is my coffee shop.
