“Just tried the iced Mango Matcha and I am officially obsessed. Also loved the blueberry iced tea! Great spot to work away from home! Kids area in the back is not too loud when you are in front, and my 3 year old loves it when I occasionally being her in to play. Great spot both with and without kiddos!”

“Coffee was really good service was kind and quick. Friendly environment with good music. 10/10 would recommend.”

“Thanks for the non-toxic bamboo cups with a delicious decaf cappuccino inside. Having dealt with health things from disrupted endocrine systems, it’s a silly thing but I’m so grateful for cups like these. Plus my 4 year old had a blast here at a pretty rad private birthday party. Thanks all around.”

“This place was very clean and organized, before my kids got there at least hahaha. My three children had a blast and the flat white was delicious.”

“The best coffee and place this cold winter!!! The kids area is beautiful and Ariana is so nice 👍🏻”

“We celebrated our kids’ birthday here and had such a fun day! The staff was helpful, everything was organized, and the kids had an amazing time. The facility was clean, the activities ran smoothly, and it was overall a great experience. Highly recommend for birthday parties and family events! 🎉😊”

“Donuts were a few days old, and stale. Considering the price, I was served food with paper plates. Cappuccino was served in a 16 oz mug, not 8 oz. This place is not a specialty cafe. However, I’m willing to give them another try. Once improved on this feedback- I’d more than happy to change my rating.”
“Absolutely love this cafe, I come here with my daughter often! I was frankly shocked that some bro left a 1 star review claiming this cafe is gentrified? This cafe is family-owned, and the owners are also an immigrant family, which anyone would know if they actually talked to people working in the shop. They have done a wonderful job at creating a safe and welcoming space for kids and adults. Come support our sweet neighbors!”
“A small contained space (so you don't have to chase your child....). Best thing: ton of busses passing by to watch for my 1 year old!”
“Great place to get work done (quiet, sunny cafe in front) or bring your little ones to play while you relax with your coffee--especially on rainy or cold days this is an amazing spot. Usually easy to find a seat (high chairs available) and the staff and clientele are all very friendly in my experience. In addition to coffee, they have a considerably wide variety of kid snacks. Stroller parking in the back hallway, clean bathrooms appointed with young children in mind (step stools, changing tables, small toilet seats available). They sell punch cards so if your kids are frequent flyers here you can save a little money.”
