I arrived very close to their closing time but they are still willing to accept my order, allow to dine in, and even come to my table and make time to have a chat and make sure the coffee that I ordered are to my liking. Wonderful experience and good coffee!

I noticed that almost all reviews for this coffee place has been 5 stars and that's the same for me too! I was just trying to find somewhere to hangout while waiting for people around that area. This is a nice and easy place at the lobby of the office building. I ordered a standard ice latte but what I was surprised is that they use 1 large cube ice! It makes me feel like I'm having a whiskey. This was really good and the coffee is nice too. Prefect place to chill out.

Absolutely incredible attention to detail. I spoke with the owner about his journey collaborating with roasters, dialing-in the parameters for weight, grind, tamp pressure, pre-infusion time+pressure, shot duration, and in:out ratios. Nothing here is approximate - it's all exact and highly intentional. The results speak for themselves. I recommend a double shot of the Ethiopia Apex.
