★★★★★ 5.0 Jasleen Kaur · Feb 2026

Their winter brew was phenomenal!! It had saffron, chai spice and brown sugar- literally everything I like in a drink. When I took the first sip, I was blown away! The ambiance was amazing as well as I read my book for sometime there!

Food is always really good, as is their selection of drinks. Super friendly sweet baristas as well. They always make you feel understood in any accommodations you need. Atmosphere is very chill and vibey, great place to come in and work and drink coffee in. 10/10 I come here any chance i can get! <3

Good food and amazing coffee. I got the Taro Latte. Also tried the Honey one too. The bagels were good. Not burned or chewy and just enough creamcheese ~ ♡ The staff was quick and friendly. Plus the outside seating made it a peaceful morning stop to enjoy the fall weather. Will definitely make this a normal stop for myself everytime I visit JC.

★★★★★ 5.0 Lani Lebron · Oct 2025

The location at the Powerhouse Arts District on 1st between Marin and Warren Streets is my favorite. Maybe it feels cozier and darker than the others, there are cool books on the tables, and the New Orleans brew has got to be the best coffee around, plus their bagel sandwiches just hit every time. I need to revisit their chai again, but I do love how the apple cider donut I had also had some cardamom flavor (perhaps I munched on a seed too). On this particular visit, the music wasn’t on at first and they did have a rush and many people in house, chillin, waiting, chatting. It just goes to show you it’s a place where people come with friends, business partners, and dogs.

Must try 🍽️ Bombay Sandwich ( It tasted so good, however I thought adding potatoes was the signature.. I guess not) Iced Hibiscus tea (It felt like it was pre made however, if there was a little more flavor it would’ve been great) Cardamom Bun ( I am not a fan of cardamom but if u are, it’s a must try!! ) The place was chill and cute. Perfect for hanging out/ working!! They had board games and lots of seating!!
