    Cozy cafe with good drinks!

    I was only able to try the Coffee Smoothie, but it was very good and refreshing, while not being too sweet. There's also plenty of seating which is nice. However, we were asked to leave since not everyone in our group ordered something, which is really weird to me, so we ended up leaving.

    Great place to meet up just to talk with friends and/or study because it's not too noisy like other cafes with their loud music.

    There's seating areas with tables and outlets to charge your laptop if you're bringing one.

    The fruity drinks aren't that great but who comes here for that? I usually come here for some coffee while I study and it's alright nothing amazing but it's better than Dunkin' Donuts! There are pastries if you get hungry while studying or hanging out with some friends.

    The cashier which is also the barista is super nice and when I have specific demands for my drinks, he fulfills them with no extra charge.

    I adore cafes. This place was so cozy and comfortable. They have a $5 minimum for card (or $10. I forget. But there is a minimum) Me and my friend got a teapot to split and I got waffles with green tea ice cream. I loved the little serving cups for the tea. They are so dainty and small. The waffles was delicious and massive. I was pretty pleased to see lots of people studying here. Very quiet relaxed environment.

    One thing that bothered me was the restroom. It was so wet and cold. Kinda gave me the creeps. Aside from the bathroom situation, this place is great. Staff is nice and friendly. I'll return again.

    Slightly pricier milk tea compared to nearby milk tea stores but still good. Lots of people recommend for tea.
    Good place to chill with plenty of seats and free wifi. It's very calming with the jazz music at the right volume to not be distracting.

    Opened promptly at 10 am and very thankful the owner let me sit around for so long. People trickled in slowly and owner seems to have regulars, friendly lady.  The bathroom is towards the back of the store.

    Came here with friends to catch up over coffee and was disappointed with both the drinks and the service.

    - Drinks: I ordered "grapefruit" from the "Fresh Fruit" section of their menu and what I got was not even remotely fresh grapefruit juice--definitely more along the lines of Tang (that orange powdered drink). Friends who ordered coffee were equally disappointed with their drinks. Based on previous reviews, I guess tea is their forte.

    - Service: Of my group of six people, five ordered drinks. After we sat down with our drinks, within 5 minutes, one of the staff members came over with a menu to ask the remaining person to order. Having just had lunch, the last member of our party politely declined. However, the staff member insisted that if he didn't order, we would all have to leave. I'd understand if only 1-3 members of our group ordered and we were taking up their space for a long time/loitering--but it felt unreasonable when we'd just sat down and 5/6 people ordered drinks.
