Great, great, great place in downtown Columbus. With the BEST cold brew I've ever tasted and the BEST owner I've ever encountered! It is really a pleasure and honor to have spent a most lovely Friday morning with my wife here. Nicest mood came from the owner's kindness! Will definitely go back again if we got the chance.

So I stumbled on this gem of a coffee shop a few months ago and now when I'm in downtown Columbus I stop by every time. The owner is very nice and you can tell takes great pride in her shop. The service is always speedy and friendly. Now for the drinks. The coffee is amazing she uses Luck Bros Coffee out of Grandview and it is really good. Haven't tried anything but the coffee. However, all of the drinks look delicious. The prices are fair for the market. The decor is my favorite it really feels comfortable and inviting. If you are a coffee snob definitely stop by and have cup. You won't regret it.

I was just stopping by to get a coffee before going on a bus and I was obsessed! The atmosphere is so cozy and welcoming with the aesthetic decoration. The owner and the staff are professional, fast, and friendly. And the latte are sooooooo good! 1000/10. I have to grab another cup of pumkin spice latte before leaving. Thank you so much guys for this place. If I am back downtown Columbus, I will definitely be back here for a cup of latte.

World class coffee shop. The owner is really nice. They make really good blended vanilla chai and have high end equipment. Decoration is top notch and feels really cozy.

I got the cookies and cream blended beverage, my friend got a chai tea iced latte with brown sugar and carmel drizzle. We both agreed this is one of the best coffee shops we've tried in Columbus! The lady working was wonderful and we really enjoyed talking to her. We both paid around $5-6 for our coffees.

The food is great, big fan of stopping in some mornings and getting a coffee. I've tried quite a few things from their menu and think i really enjoy a simple cold brew with a shot of sweetener. They can really make everything here and ita usually really quick

Great coffee shop! Hard to find, but it’s inside the building. If you go around the back there’s a sign and a little sitting area. Maybe they should put a sign on the main road saying the cafe is inside. Anyways great coffee, great muffins, cute vibe.

My "Go To" coffee shop.. Everyone is always so friendly, and their coffee is always hot and right on time!! Quite a few specialty items as well if you want to reward yourself with a delicious treat!! The ambiance is cool for work, or to catch up with a friend!! I can't say enough great things about this place.. I have been going since I worked in the building, and now that I no longer work there, I still try to find my way back as much as I can... AND will continue to do so!!! Highly recommended!! They didn't give me an option to put a few more stars! 9/5!!
