Finally the new downtown spot is open instead of the bar that traded church for the stars and cards, mom and the grandparents won't be cringed out now! I do miss the easy parking lot, outdoor patio, and larger seating room but the entire atmosphere is now brighter, more inviting, and music has been balanced to enhance the excellent food and drinks. They had a short stall during opening weeks without food but the full menu and more is in play now! All the drinks and house crafted lattes are pure goodness, testimony to the virtues of house made syrups, high quality Tinker roasted beans, and well mixed lattes. I enjoy just everything from the main menu to seasonal and weekly creations. There's plenty to treat the high class black brew earl as well as those like me needing coffee as unlike coffee as possible. The recent Yule espresso egg nog was sublime. Another recent best has been the Mexican mocha, a rich and spicy winter win. Bagels continue to be excellent just like the previous three years, plenty of options and something just about for everyone, gluten and vegetarian, but am missing that soup, maybe the amazing Hungarian Mushroom can be imported from Black Sparrow please? Only issues I've noticed is no rewards program, no mobile order options even though they used to use the Joe App which was fantastic to get third party benefits and easy ordering, however all small potatoes considering The Eleventh House keeps on as my top local list. My other snobby java jesters agree as well, even one working at the overpriced Greyhouse, that the best drip is made here.
