Perfect. Don’t just order a Matcha Latte. Try their specials! Especially the Cloud Custard Latte and Enjoyme Latte (the name speaks for itself and speaks loudly and truly).

The owner is dedicated to the space and his coffee! Open even during the recent snow storm with a smile on his face. This place made me feel at home, the vibe is on point and the cappuccino or the V60 were perfectly executed

Got the houjicha and cloud custard lattes - both delicious and very reasonably priced! The houjicha was so chocolatey-umami rich and not burnt at all, which is hard to find with tea lattes. And the cloud custard was SOOO cheesy-creamy which balanced out the lightly acidic coffee blend. Would love to go back and try their other items! Nothing is too sweet or too lacking in sweet. Well balanced :) Barista was really friendly, as were the other customers who all just seemed happy to be there, haha. Highly recommend!
