    Their "coffee" is all espresso, so if you order a regular coffee you're actually getting an Americano (espresso and hot water) so every cup is made to order, and nice and strong Also try the Duffin. Read more

    Only local coffee shop I haven't had one complaint about. Great lattes. If they have the freshly made gingerbread, get a piece. You will not regret it.

    Iced Raspberry Mocha is the best coffee drink in town. And you can get a great ham, cheese & egg bagel any time of day. Eggels are the way to go.

    They will track your coffee purchases by your name, but you have to ask. You'll earn free coffee after 10.

    It's overpriced for what you get. They make a good dirty chai, but I thought the latte I got could have been less watery. Staff was abrupt and yelled at people to not stand in front of the counter.

    Ham, egg and cheese is even better on everything bagel than whole wheat. Melty goodness any time of the day.

    Coffee was some of the best I have had, but don't get the breakfast sandwiches. Processed egg, bagel isn't toasted, and meat was poor. Go for the pastry instead..

    The cookies are very good. Disappointed in the coffee. The iced coffee wasn’t even brewed. It was a Nescafé style product stirred with water. Lame.
