I always enjoy my visits here. To start, the atmosphere is relaxed and the music is stuck in a decade before it all went wrong. I love the food and dessert, there's a peanut butter thing you've got to try. And the coffee, the coffee always delivers. Get a French press. On top of that, the service is always excellent. Nothing bad to say about this place, it's great for a quick cup, and totally suitable for a date.

This place is wonderful. They serve mostly drinks but they do have a small food menu. The food is a little expensive for the smaller portions they give you, but it is quite tasty with good ingredients. The desserts are great. The servers are all very nice. The drinks are really the star here. They have several different options, but I usually get their hot tea, hot chocolate, or coffee. The different added flavors are so good and the whipped cream brings so much joy. The ambiance here is wonderful, sometimes there's live music (you will have to pay more to sit), and there are bookshelves everywhere filled with old books and board games. This a really nice spot to go in the evening for a relaxed atmosphere where you can talk over good drinks.

Amazing ambiance. This place is warm and cozy. Very relaxing.The perfect atmosphere for caching up with friends. The food is delicious and the drinks are just perfect. They don't sell alcoholic drinks, that's why the place is even welcoming for your young kids. My 12 years old son really enjoyed the live jazz band and I was happy to share with him this type of environment without being worry about people getting drunk. The staff is friendly and they never rush you out of the place even that they get really busy at times. The only thing I would point at them is that a lot of the sofas are in bad conditions (Torn Cushions). I understand the vintage and antique decor, but a lot of the sofas feel like being pick up from the streets. Old should be clean and neat as well. I'm still giving them 5 starts because I have been there many times, and because I really hope they are going to listen to my suggestion of getting the furniture in better conditions. Yes. I will recommend this place to friends and family!

Very good food and friendlt staff. I really enjoy the alt/punk vibe here which is a first if it's kind for me in this state. I like to come here and work over a coffee.
