WOW this place has always been good but just visited for the first time in a while and their remodel is beautiful! So stunning could've spent my whole day in there received a pistachio latte tasted amazing. Service was great highly recommend.
Such a beautiful space. I went to get some work done and it seemed that others had the same idea as me. When i walked in there were two groups of people working on their laptops talking quietly. There was also light music playing in the background which was helpful. The space was super clean and the seating was comfortable. I appreciated the variety of different types of seating to meet the needs of smaller or larger groups. The food and drinks were delicious and made to order. I ordered their seasonal pumpkin spice latte and their egg croissant. The flavors were amazing and it didn’t take too long to come out.
While on our way back from a wonderful day trip, we stopped by this wonderful coffee house. If you are ever in town visiting, like we were on our way back to Cleveland, Ohio, stop by here. You will not be upset that you did. You will enjoy every sip of your drink, and the hospitality and service from the crew were amazing.
super cozy and inviting inside! soo pretty and the workers are super kind! I ordered the "bee bites", the sabaya, and an iced strawberry matcha with oat milk (yay for the milk alternatives!!). everything was DELICIOUS. it was my first time trying these pastries and even though I ordered them to- go, they served it warm with fresh honey drizzled on top. the strawberry matcha was also sooo yummy (as a matcha fanatic) and was made with strawberry puree which was mouthwatering. I'll definitely be back many more times and look forward to trying the adeni chai, mango smoothies, and their milk cake!
This place is amazing. The coffee and tea are just perfect. I had the Biscoff cheesecake and my wife had the cookie crossaint. Let's just say, we both left here very satisfied. My 4 year old also did not leave without a whipped cream mustache from her strawberry cheesecake mini. I would recommend to anyone would love to to try something different and very worthy. Thank you so very much Socotra!!
