Crema's Take
“This espresso-focused spot genuinely cares about getting the details right, generously pouring extra shots into their lattes and rewarding regulars with a loyalty program that feels like a genuine thank you. Beyond the coffee, they've created a welcoming haven for families and lingerers alike, complete with a dedicated kids' play room and Nordic waffles worth the visit, paired with baristas who work at a thoughtful pace that honors both quick caffeine runs and longer conversations. It's the kind of neighborhood place where you feel seen whether you're ordering your tenth coffee or discovering them for the first time.”

This is a great coffee shop. They always give you the extra shot of espresso in your lattes (the best) and they have a nice loyalty program for every 10 coffees you buy. They are also really involved in the community which is cool and they have things for families to join in on regularly. Me and my dog walk up here every Saturday morning for the banana bread and a latte.
The Strawberry and Cream Nordic Waffle is delicious.
Food tastes very good. They are geared for small orders. Our party of four's meals came out one at a time, then a soup, and finally the drinks. The Nordic waffle sandwich needs to be a bit crispier but does taste good with a fork and knife.
This place is a great place to stop get a coffee and have a conversation. It's got delicious food and drinks, and an awes family friendly atmosphere. I definitely recommend that you come here.
Went in for the first time today. Cold press was awesome, with excellent service. They have a kids play room in the back, away from the main seating area. My kids loved it, and I didn't feel like they were bugging anyone. They also have another room with a conference table. Love it!
