    This is my standard quick breakfast spot. Keep it simple with oatmeal and fruit and a coffee. The crepes are decent too

    Spiced chai here is great - not too sweet and the spice isn't overwhelming either. Very comforting tea!

    The smell of roasted coffee, delicious snackage and a quirky group of baristas make this my get-away spot. ;)

    Ask how long your food will take if you're in a hurry. They don't move fast here but they have good bagels!

    Chai latte and warm bites. Cozy atmosphere. Nice break from work.

    The coffee is good and the atmosphere is real chill, provided you don't go during peak hours. Staff is friendly. Only downside is the food is on the pricey side. And the hot chocolate kinda sucks.

    Friendly, funky, and arty crowd. Try the Masala chai for a late-afternoon pick-me-up.

    Coffee wasn't my favorite, but the espresso drinks have been very good (iced latte and americano)

    Wifi, chill and comfy. Loud music, so bring headphones if you want to read.

    Best iced tea I've had. They supposedly make their own special blend. It's delicious!

    Very nasty attitude from the sole counter person on 6/22/14. I'll never go back. Iced coffee was decent but pricey. I don't need psycho making it for me.

    Order an Africano, if you haven't had one before. Espresso to milk ratio + small size = convenient afternoon pick-me-up.

    Will never come back here. Everyone that came after me all got their order but me. Waited for a stupid caramel latte that should have been done in less than 10 min. Nope. Wasn't even busy. Money back
