When you start with an inspiring roast as your foundation which is then prepared by talented baristas, your in for a great experience! Their Sawmill locale is unique in that it's tucked in a food court which sets a different mood depending on the season. I can't wait to go back!
claire was so helpful in explaining the menu to me. it got a little busy but still got great service. can’t wait to return ! i got a LB latte in a cortado size with breve. delicious.
The coffee was good and beautifully made, and the barista was really nice and attentive. The place has a cozy vibe and cute presentation. However, the cup size was quite small for the price — I was expecting a bit more for what they charge. Still, it’s a nice spot to stop by for a quality coffee and chill atmosphere. ☕✨
The coffee here tastes great! Smooth and not bitter. Deep flavor not like some very popular coffee chains. I tried a vegan donut that was chocolate with a coffee drizzle. Good! And not too sweet. This is the coffee booth in Sawmill Market where La Plata coffee used to be. Little Bear is a local brand and there are at least two other locations.
I just had one of the best iced coffee’s (well, iced Americano)! It had a great flavor! Not bitter and quite smooth. Also, we tried their vegan doughnuts, and they were quite good too, not too sweet and more cake like but very moist, with a good chocolate flavor! The store is located east side by the parking lot. Highly recommended!
