Good food/menu and nice waiter. The atmosphere is nice with both indoor and outdoor seating, bills, board games, and Wi-Fi. It would be perfect except they need a handicap button on their doors which are very heavy. Other than that 1 missing detail I like the cafe.

The coffee and food is decent! On the other hand, absolutely phenomenal vibes on the decor and atmosphere. I love the comic artwork on the walls, and there are a ton of games and comics for your perusal as you wait. Highly recommend if you’re a comics fan!

I like this place. It is inviting and warm, and serves good coffee. The barista is nice and professional; she greets everyone when they walk in and gives recommendations if you ask. She is good at what she does, fast, and serves tasty …
