Well, no one was in there but one worker and ourselves. The bakery was practically empty with not the best tasting bakery items like the last time I was there. We made a reservation for the coffee flights but no one was there other than us. It took a very long time to get the flights, and it was very cold in the shop where I couldn’t take my jacket off. Not the experience I had the first time I was there, very disappointed. We drove an hour to go there

I love the idea of doing a coffee flight and while the service was great and the shop very cute, I was very disappointed with the quality of the coffee drinks. The coffee itself was very weak and some of the drinks didn't seem mixed very well. In the pictures I had seen online, you could clearly tell differences in the drinks but all mine looked pretty much the same. While I don't mind paying more for great coffee or an experience, it's disappointing to pay so much for low quality coffee. I would love to rate this higher because I love the idea of it, but the drinks need to be improved or the price lowered.

Really enjoyed the coffee flights! Our server did excellent with the recommendations. We chose to do two pastries with our coffee and they were delicious. I also love that they have a selection of pre packaged meals so if you’re on the go looking for a healthy option you can stop in and grab one. Definitely will be coming back!

This place is everything they say and more! Came here for my girlfriend's birthday and we had a great time. It's such a cute place, the staff were so nice and we all did coffee and tea flights with pastries and let me tell you they were to die for! You wouldn't know they were gluten free unless they told ya and I've had a lot of pastries in my day. Let me tell ya. This is my new favorite place. I took a little picture so y'all could see how cute it is. You gotta go try em out.
