😐 It was a cute shop my only complaint is that I bought some loose tea to make at home and it was almost 30 bucks but didn't seem to be measured and just came in a paper bag that they put pastries in. For that price point it should have come in a container that will help keep it fresh not me having to...

Espresso drinks, light fare & baked goods offered in a warm, brick-lined space with an arty vibe.

👍 Good little spot. Tucked in the heart of the Jefferson park, it’s really the only coffee shop in the area. The food is a little pricey and they only are open until 2pm or 3pm most days. Overall definitely worth a stop for a coffee and a little bit of work!
