They’ve got the unique coffee bean varieties on display! I got a strong one and it was insanely smooth! They also use specialty soymilk that mixes so well with the coffee! Highly recommended

Possibly one of the best egg & bacon muffins I've ever had, washed down with a really nice hot coffee! Great, prompt and friendly service - I'll be back for sure! Cheers!
