Welcome! We know how excited you are to be here! To help make your transition a little smoother, stop in for a 1/2 price Vanilla Chai . It's a favorite around here, and we think you'll love it too!

Green tea "Ice Rage" was pleasantly refreshing on a balmy summer day. Fast wifi , lots of outlets, and comfy couches in the back! Staff is super friendly and answers all your loser questions ;)

Downtown Scavenger Hunt Tip : Iggy's go-to hangout spot usually involves cups of coffee and tea ! You'll find him on the second level with his laptop and warm drink!

My faves are the pixie mate (especially iced) and hot chocolate mmm. I know there are more good drinks but i can't explore because i keep getting my faves every time i go there!

Chocolate chai is delicious in cold weather. Peach , pear , apricot smoothie is wonderful to help cool off on a hot day.

John Valerio

Great place. Great coffee . Love it. But if you drive there, watch those parking meters! Scranton must have two meter nazis per block. Put those quarters in and watch your time! Tickets are expensive !

Iggy’s obsession with coffee has grown! You’ll find him browsing all the different flavors in this downtown hangout café .

Chill place to camp out with your laptop. The food options although few are good, think wraps and biscotti . Lattes are mediocre. Soy milk available.

Jason Schwass

Best coffee bar in Scranton. Great location in the heart of downtown. I recommend their chai .
