    A place with a good selection of coffee. Perfect Spot to chat with friends or sit and read some books. I usually end up drinking more than 2 cups of coffee here. Their bubble tea is good as well.

    Everything here is priced reasonably, the environment is perfect for creative people and those that love the company of new friends. Try the 'Papa Toe' almond coconut mocha, and munch on a vegan bagel

    The papa toe is amazing and the handsom baristas were very friendly. Was busy when we went on sat. Night, but it was very quiet. I had to circle the block for parking but well worth it!

    They have the best tea selection in the city, the baristas are always really nice and you hardly ever have to struggle to get a seat with plug access!
