| - The location of this place is somewhere I didn't even know existed--it was clean, quiet and something you would see in a movie or a Lifetime original series. ¯\_(?)_/¯
The actually coffee shop was cute and had it's own mis-matched charm. The staff was super friendly, and attentive afterwards, when you already got your drinks and have been hanging out for a while. I got a tiramisu latte over ice with almond milk---it was a little too sweet for me, but it was still very good and creamy, as if they used breve instead of almond milk, but I'm not complaining. And my boyfriend got a hot Moroccan latte with whole milk, which he really enjoyed and actually finished it in 5 minutes after getting it.
They have a really good selection of books and board games you could choose from and a cute little fireplace and some couches, for you to hang out and socialize. I imagine this place to be a cute coffee shop date during the colder seasons because it was so homey in there.
Perk Up also has a drive-thru which is super convenient for those on the run, and from just sitting in the lobby for while, it seemed to be much more busy than the lobby.
The restrooms were super fancy. (I just had to note that because they seemed like something you would see on HGTV.)
Two downsides though:
1.) the couches available were uncomfortable. :(
2.) the cashier who took our orders kept repeating back our order wrong, which happened 3x--fortunately, when we got our drinks they were right. It was just a little annoying having to repeat ourselves multiple times.
Other than that, I see myself coming back.
