| - I honestly had high expectations for this place but was not wow'd.
I was intrigued and lured in because ... Harry Potter!
The coffee is pretty good and they have a variety of flavors to choose from.
Was disappointed during my visit because they had no butter beer, which was one of the things I wanted to try and reason to come!
I was able to decide on Matcha Green Tea Affogato with Expresso & Salted Cream Nitrogen Brewed Cold Coffee. The affogatos can come with or without the expresso, but having it without defeats the purpose of an affogato! It was good, although it only had the hint of green tea -- would've liked it to have more of that distinct taste and flavor of matcha. The Salted Cream Nitrogen Brewed was interesting. Served cold, in a glass cup. Poured from a spouted barrell, strong foamy coffee, topped with salted cream - definitely a good caffeine kick, but nothing any other coffee shop can't fix.
My sister wasn't too impressed with her Matcha Blended (aka green tea frap), again because there's only a very faint taste of the green tea, she says she's had better.
My sister's husband definitely wasn't impressed with his drink. He got the Mint Mojito Latte. Every sip (with and without straw) contained big chunks of mint leaves, it was hard to taste the coffee itself. I don't know if it maybe wasn't muddle right or maybe too much leaves in general, but I don't think anyone would enjoy drinking leaves.
Love the decor details and theme though (ie. the full series of books, the table writings, the owl, etc), and because again, Harry Potter!
