“ An amazing place. The owner was there and extremely kind and personable, I love a place that has a focus on coffee. You can expect that the drip coffee will not be second rate, but actually dialed and delicious. The shot I had was dialed to perfection, it was great as a shot and would work well in a latte as well. I'm looking forward to stopping by again for the Rosemary Vanilla Latte! ”
