One of my favorite coffee shops! Don’t be a jerk, and pick up after yourself! They have a dish container IN THE MIDDLE of the shop. Anyway, their pesto club is SO good, as well as their seasonal raspberry matcha. I’m not a big fan of the chai— too sweet for me— but it’s very yummy still. Lots of seating, I see some regulars here and there. They also have this little shop area with cute local work. I haven’t attended but they have music on the weekends I believe. I think it’d be cool if there’s like an intentional social event to meet people (not necessarily trivia, but like hosting an origami class, we buy a drink or food, and sit and get to know people in our community at our favorite shop!). They have lots of posters for other events. There is parking, but sometimes you can park across the street. There’s only one bathroom and sometimes the line can take a while. Love this place!

We stopped by this coffee shop today simply because it was the closest one from the restaurant we went to. My parner said this spot has a Portland vibe. Spacious with a lot of indoor seating and a free paking lot. I ordered the london fog which was ok. The filter on the ceiling looked very filthy. They definitely need to replace it. No flies spotted. The food debris here and there on the floor and chairs though.

Mid-Coffee Shop - Nothing Special I recently stopped by a local coffee shop that seemed to have a decent reputation, but after trying it, I can’t say it lived up to the hype. I probably took two sips of my pumpkin pie latte and then threw it away. My fiancé got a piping hot Earl Grey tea which caused the tea to taste bitter. We completely wasted our money. The ambiance was probably the best thing about it with many cool stickers, pins, cards, etc.
