Nice place. Friendly service. The layout is a little awkward if you're coming here to chat. The line butts right against all the tables but 1 and that one is right by the door so burr cold. If you're just coming for coffee it won't be fast but it'll be good :)

Loved this little coffee shop! Reminds me of a coffee shop we have in my hometown in Indiana. Had the mocha late and pink flamingo, both highly recommend! Great view from both their outside and inside seating areas.

An incredible little local shop that produces quality drinks & products. The staff is incredibly friendly & the owner(s) are absolutely wonderful! They have a very cute/clean shop that offers seating indoors & outdoors. They’re a true gem of North Springs!

Excellent little neighborhood spot. Small and quaint but they do have some outside seating as well. Coffee selection is great and you can even order beans that they do not have in stock. Service was friendly and accommodating. They also carry some great local pastries and other good food items. Will absolutely be back!

Place was great! Excellent selection, and a great location. We sat on the patio overlooking the mountains. The quiche was very good. Service was top notch. Friendly and fast. I gave a 4 because I wanted a little more from the coffee itself. It was good. But it was not exceptional, in my opinion. I drink black coffee, and the coffee was slightly over-brewed (had the burnt flavor), and it needed a little bit more depth and complexity. But I might be a little snobby... Anyway, I would recommend this place to friends, and I would never tell anyone to not go.

The owner is amazing in her qwerkiness... Extremely likeable with a great staff. The coffee selection is very creative... I mean not like a full wall or two but for an authentic local place it has a very big selection. You must try the dirty mocha! It's like absolute bliss in a cup... Triggers all the happy emotions when consumed. I'm sure I shouldn't have it everyday as a diabetic but I'm sure I'll die happy from it if I binge on it...

I liked the atmosphere of this place. It is definitely a few steps above your standard corporate run coffee house. No pop music in the background, friendly staff, reasonable prices, and it's a local business. I had a plain dark roast coffee and it was great. If you stay on property you can get a free refill on a drip coffee order.

We stumbled upon this place several months ago, while visiting the area. What a blessing! I don't drink coffee, but my husband enjoyed his (in fact, he ended up buying a thermos full to take on our travels). I had a smoothie and it was delicious; he had breakfast and enjoyed his, as well. We appreciate that it's a Christian shop, and that they have gift items made by those with special needs (husband and I both have special needs family members, so this meant a lot to us). God bless your business and your ministry!

Randomly dropped in here not knowing what to expect. Very small but it felt very cozy and welcoming. My dad and I ordered several drinks for the family so it took the solo person working a while to make them. She was extremely nice and the coffee was very good, the patrons that were in the store were also very nice and it was a very pleasant experience over all. I little pricey for my preference but if I weren’t a cheap SOB I’d say it was worth the wait and cost.
