Wendy and crew are the best. I’m there almost daily when I’m home, and I always feel welcome there. The coffee is second to none, and there’s plenty of food and snack options that are delicious. Check out open mike on Thursdays also!

Love this charming & cute & cozy, kids friendly cafe. The drinks menu alone will blown you away with tons of options ... Thumbs up to kid toys provided in the cafe. I like Turkish coffee, bold and not too sweet.

This is a very interesting and very cozy coffee shop. I love the variety of things they have and the coffee is good, I had the Hazelnut, Caramel iced latte topped off with blueberry. The customer service is great!

Eclectic coffee/breakfast spot in an old victorian house. The coffee and huge breakfast sandwich were excellent and inexpensive, even considering the bacon, egg and cheese were all cooked together. Tons of seating between two brightly-colored rooms. There are board games to play with, books to read and oddball items for sale.

Been coming here for so long I can't even remember. Drinks are great, sometimes you can get a new person that may not be up to speed but for the most part I leave happy. The food is really good, eaten there a few times. There are lots of gifts to buy, as well as some really funny cards. Better quality and the same price as other coffee shops, it's worth checking out if you haven't yet!

The coziest coffee shop to get something amazing to drink and get lost in a book while listening to soft jazz. (Well that was my experience today) Love this place! Haven't been? Why? Sit inside or out on the porch. The place isnt just coffee but they also sell lots of cool things.

A place that I would recommend for any coffee lover. Not only do they have great tasting coffee - and a lot of great tasting options - but the atmosphere is also great. The decor is very eclectic and so interesting. Whether you want to sit inside and chat with friends while sipping on your Turkish coffee or enjoy your latte on their sunny porch, you will have a memorable experience. While we sat there, the train went past on the tracks nearby and their downtown area has other great places as well.
