Cannot speak more highly about this place. When I came in, I introduced myself to the owners and they treated me like I was an honored guest. I saw them give the same treatment to other patrons. They were very helpful in getting me to choose from the menu. When they heard I came from out of town, they advised me to try the cro’gel (croissant bagel) that you only get in Maryland and recognizing my interest in different foods, recommended me the kouin amann. They also guides me through my matcha choice and advised on the best temperature for it. If I lived in the area, I would surely be a regular here!

This is a coffee shop that plays music and has hightop window seating and tables with seats. The sound system looks reto, laid back cool vibe. The coffee is a little weak, but the food was excellent. The bagel breakfast sandwhich was outstanding. Service was friendly and pretty quick for an upscale gormet shop.

This was such a cute, yummy, and clean place! My sister and I walked in for breakfast and were welcomed with a warm smile. The service was amazing and they took cleanliness seriously. The iced chai was so yummy and so was the iced latte with honey. We’ll definitely be back!

Love this little quaint shop. Best coffee in the area...HANDS DOWN!!! Paris Baguette is right around the corner and Starbucks is like 3 or so blocks around the corner but this place has hand made espresso with an actual espresso machine, not that computerized stuff at Starbucks. The barrista makes awesome coffee. I got my wife a latte, I got a mocha with a double shot and we also got a caramel machiato. All professionally made and delicious made with what seems a mild or medium roast...I prefer it to Starducks dark roast which is always kind of bitter and I end up adding like 8 packs of brown sugar to my mocha double shot. Highly recommend!!!
