The espresso is very smooth and delicious. The 2 dollar up charge for Almond milk is a little much. But over all, worth it.

The eco friendly vibe is very strong here. -community mugs so you don’t have to use paper cups -stack of cloth hand towels in the bathroom -cute chairs -nice open garage feel -treats look decent but haven’t tried.

$14.50 for a toastie that was supposed to include pickles, poblano peppers, and greens. There were no peppers and only 3 slices of pickle. Not to mention this sandwich used to come with bacon and now it doesn’t, but the price is still the same. Super disappointing.
