So I didn't get any food or drinks but bought a pound of coffee and a container of tea. The tea area is nice because they put out open samples for smelling and they have a very nice variety of tea. The merch looks pretty neat too (T-shirts and other stuff).

Tasty small plates, refreshing drinks, and great coffee. The customer service was also outstanding. I biked here from South Haven before turning around to head back and it was a perfect mid way point.

I stopped here twice while in town and WOW! the baristas were all super friendly and knowledgeable. i had an iced salted caramel latte, the mexican mocha, and a breakfast sandwich. They have a great variety and I love that they sell so many local items. What a great spot!

Went to this Coffee shop the other day. Was really surprised to see that it's a really cozy nice place for some coffee and snacks. The Coffee was nice and the place is clean and tidy. Social distancing measures are being put to good measure as well Our Server Ariana provided us with great customer service. Would love to visit this place again soon. Only issue is that there is very limited parking space.
