| - This place is the bees knees. Talk about great service and a passion for their product. Also, the smells are wonderful and make me happy. Apparently the owner travels around the world sourcing products. How incredible is that? If you take a look at one of the clocks on the wall, you can see exactly where he is and the time. Dubai is where he's currently at, FYI.
Drinks: I needed something that wasn't straight coffee as it was later in the day. I got chatting with Jake, the barista, and he told me about this special they'd concocted, the Bees Knees. Espresso, honey, lemon, and water over ice. Questionable? Perhaps. Delicious? Most definitely. This drink was incredibly refreshing and I'm probably going to order it whenever I come back.
Service: I adore places that have good service. Pretentious baristas at coffee shops make me question the establishment and all that it holds dear. This place rocks. As my friend and I were walking out, we took a peek through the window where some roasting equipment was sitting. A guy walking by us seemed enthused and asked us if we wanted a tour. Heck yes we did! Unfortunately, we were running to an appointment and couldn't make that work. Raincheck?
Atmosphere: this is a great study or date spot. It has pretty quiet background music that doesn't get in the way of conversation. The place is filled with coffee smells, at-home coffee equipment for sale, and of course, bags of tea and coffee.
Love it. I'll be back.
