The coffee (I got a iced vanilla latte) was excellent! The espresso was great and it was just the right ratio of milk, syrup, and espresso! My friend got the.

Great coffee, but this place oozes character. Lots of nooks and alcoves to tuck yourself into for a chat or to study, I would have loved a coffee shop like.
