Mean Cup

Plusses: Coffee was delicious. very college vibe. very busy, staff was excellent. Lots of parking. Misses: I wish they had served the coffee in real cups or mugs, and the 2nd hand furniture could use some attention and duct tape.

This place should be called Nice Mug, ’cuz this place sure is nice! Best coffee in the realm, and those hand pies (cheese, egg, bacon) are the greatest breakfast item ever to be sold in any coffee shop I have ever been to in my life (and I’ve been in more coffee shops than anyone alive today).

Coffee is dark roasted and amazing! Will be back for sure to grab coffee. I haven’t tried any of the food yet but it looks good. Staff was okay. No complaints but also not super friendly. Clean cafe but hardly no seating.. lots of people spread out over several seats “working”… leaving no room for others to have a coffee with friends.

Espresso based beverages are smooth, no bad aftertaste, however, if you go with the standard amount of espresso per size, it ends up just tasting like milk. If you actually like the taste of coffee, make sure to ask for an extra shot or two. Thankfully the prices are very reasonable so an extra shot latte isn’t going to break the bank. The food is okay, nothing exceptional but will do in a pinch when you get your coffee. The customer service is standard, nothing bad nothing good. Overall a decent coffee shop in Lancaster with good prices.

I liked this cafe enough. It’s more about speed and efficiency than it is about good coffee it seems. With Franklin and Marshall right beside it, I’m sure it’s catering more to the student rather than the coffee lover. Their coffee is cheaper than most, which is nice, but their sizes aren’t big, which is probably why they have cheaper prices. I liked the vibes of the cafe, but it was a bit loud for conversation with the music blasting.
