Great Espresso , friendly service & ModBar! The lobby is a great place to catch up on work or do some reading. Outlets, reliable wifi and some super cool chairs. You must try the Goat 's Milk Cortado !

Robbie Siron

I liked it. Cold brew was great, shot was passable, though a little over extracted. Staff was nice. The space echoes a lot so it's not great for conversation.

What a great place. The sweet potato and avocado hash bowl is a must try!

Neda O'Reilly

They did not have non dairy milk which was strange for coffee place . And it was very noisy due to construction . And definitely not the best espresso :(
