Crema's Take
“Covert BK pulls off the rare trick of nailing both espresso fundamentals and creative drinks—their cortados are textbook perfect, while their cinnamon mocha lands as one of the best in the area, never veering into syrupy territory. The whole operation feels genuinely welcoming despite the name's mysterious vibe, with standout staff like Marco and a killer food program (those egg breakfast tacos are the real deal). This is a local favorite that actually deserves the hype, perfect for lingering over a cortado with sparkling water or grabbing something substantial on your way out.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

No one says a word when I walked in. They all just stared blankly. I asked for an Americano to go and the cup was clearly crushed with a finger to cause spillage during drinking. Just another stuck up, entitled coffee shop for hipsters who don’t care about service.

Amazing spot, lucky to call it my local coffee shop. Try the egg breakfast tacos ($6 ea) on flour tortillas with the green sauce - amazing stuff. Coffee is always bangin. I had a latte there the other day that was so pretty that i (very uncharacteristically) took a photo of it…
The PEC is one of the best sandwiches I've had. The flavor profile is so good! Great latte as well! Service was friendly. Atmosphere is a chill vibe.
