What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks, matcha and tea options too. A quick-grab spot, outdoor seating.

Super dope coffee joint, Chai latte was straight gas brah. Hella nice staff too, totally bringing my homies back next time!!
Great drinks and amazing vibes! The staff are friendly, and I love the atmosphere here. My only mystery is how a small chai, listed at $5.50, somehow came out to over $8 pre-tip - I think there might be a mistake in their system. Still, I’ll be back for the drinks and the energy!
Best coffee ever. I keep meaning to try their matcha, but that lavender latte is too dang irresistible.
