Relaxed atmosphere with great tasting bagels and even better tasting coffee!

Coffee, menu and atmosphere are great, but SLOW is the operative word here. Don’t plan on grabbing a quick cup of coffee - even plain old drip. Staff seemed to be working hard and were very friendly, but they need to examine their systems to prevent such long wait times.

I had a great moment there, I just stopped for drink a mocha and stayed there around 30 min but I saw the environment really nice. Cozy decoration, and a lot of people join there with friends to talk, read, do homework. Free WiFi than I really appreciate more if I just here to know the area.

I couldn't agree more with the other review that says slow to the point of seeming spiteful. No line, 4 of them behind the counter, standing around laughing at each other's phones, no one making coffee. After a line started to form 2 of the 4 left and 1 of them decided to make my coffee.

Very nice staff, good student filled atmosphere. Long line (15 wait to order) is normal during morning.

I will say, good things come to those who wait. i was a little conflicted originally about the line here, but what do you expect at 10 am on a college campus? But it is worth it. You can tell that the beans and other menu items are chosen with great care. Well worth it.

I love it. The atmosphere, coffee, staff all good. Wanted to try dessert but it was sold out so soon. Nice place to stay long. Will visit again!
