Every day there's at least four types of beans to try, plus many more to take home. Great food options, super friendly staff and the best community atmosphere I've ever encountered. Zero pretension!

Great spicy chai tea . Bagel with pbutter and jelly my favorite at home nice to see on a menu. Sat inside since outside had lots of dog owners. Awesome to enjoy chai watching owners resemble their dogs

good coffee-lots of tasty blends, very calm atmosphere , cool people.

Ginger jack cookie is such a treat ， great tea selections too on top of coffee

Same great coffee you can find anywhere else in the city but easily $1 cheaper.

Bring your dog! It's as much of a dog cafe as it is a people cafe .

Really friendly and knowledgeable staff , and great teas and coffees !

Excellent soy lattes . Super friendly staff . Too bad the sun never comes any closer to the shop.

The coffee is only middling but this neighborhood café is thoroughly charming

Best drink ever: dirty chai (that's chai with a shot of espresso ). Spikes makes a great one!
