I absolutely love this "hidden gem" of the southside. There are quite a few small coffee shops in the south side as well as a Starbucks and Peet's coffee and this place beats them all, hands down. I love their caramel latte.
The atmosphere is cozy and perfect - exactly what you would want in a "local coffee shop". A fireplace is always lit in the winter and there is a small patio of outside seating for the summertime.
The only thing keeping it from being a 5-star for me is the service. They always seem to be nicer to the regulars that come in there than the every once in a while goer like myself. They have never been super friendly any time I've been in there. Maybe I'm not "hipster" enough.
Still overall great coffee and atmosphere and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a great cup of joe in the south side!
