👍 Cute coffee stand inside the mall. We had two iced chai lattes (which were served in large glasses) and the labneh naan. The naan itself was a bit tough but the toppings were great; the flavour is perfect. I would recommend trying it if you want something savory and light.

Some displays are great for photo ops. The owners were very pleasant and eager to share information about their products. I had a steamed...

Yu Yo Craft Supply + Tea House
Tea store
👍 Fun, eclectic mix of craft and paint supplies including unique imports. It is very tightly shelved so would be impossible to enter if using a mobility aid like a walker or wheelchair, or a stroller. Prices were as randomly displayed as the collection of items were-- I unfortunately purchased an item...

😐 I went there as I was in the area and got pumpkin spice latte. It was good, but way over priced!! Also, the staff seemed like nice ladies but were so dry and not as friendly as I’d hope. Nice and cute spot for a quick coffee fix.
