Cool coffee bar in a pretty cool building. It seems like it’s an apartment complex and this is in the lobby area. But wow the building is amazing and so large. It’s almost cavernous. The vibes are immaculate. My coffee was ok a little weird on the orange bitters but my friends drink was really good and both our pastries were awesome. This is the kind of place you can come and hangout for a few hours to read or work on a super cold day when you don’t want to do much else.

Nice place to stop by to work, study, or catch up with friends. There’s a lot of communal seating. The food portions are huge, and the dishes are tasty. The coffee is strong af so prepare yourself. Everything is super clean and I love the communal community vibe. The employees who serve the food are super friendly and helpful. I hope management treats them well. Would drop by again if I was in the area.

Almost feels like it's hidden, but the interior has some great art deco feel, complete with antique furniture, raised ceilings and a dimly lit interior. Pretty solid selection of pastries and food, and the coffee was nice as well. Atmosphere is definitely stand out and makes it worth a go.

Love that it’s dog friendly, I especially love coming here in the fall and sitting on the alley-like patio. If you’re an over thinker like me here is the most non confrontational experience you can have. (Learn from my mistake) 1. Wait in line and order at the right side of the counter. 2. If you order a drink make sure you wait for it to be made and for them to announce your drink. Waiting on the left side of the counter. Retrieving your drink in the center of the counter. 3. If you get food they will bring food out to you if they give you a number when you ordered. You’ll then place it on the table you sit at, make sure it’s visible. 4. Try not to leave your drink for more than 7 minutes at the counter/ miss your drink announcement. I didn’t assume they would bring it out but went back in to get my drink after getting my to-go food as I didn’t want my dog or I to be in the way and they tossed it and had to make a new one. Which made me feel really bad for misinterpreting their pick up, drop off situation. Hope that helps someone! I’ve actually never sat inside but dogs are allowed indoor and outdoors. Outdoors is our favorite, very spacious anytime before 11:00 am or so. Wish there were more cafes like this around the city!

We love froth! Not only is the food great, the cocktail approach to coffee is so fun and unique. That’s not even the best part- it is an AWESOME co-working space AND they let your dog come! They also host pop-ups! Last time we were there, they were hosting Green Petal Project and we got a mini bouquet with a vase! Super cute!
