I was bit down due to personal reasons and took a break at this juncture for 20 minutes. I just had a coffee and it was right temperature and creamy.. Forget notice the person name at 10:30 today being very friendly and smiling… Had my coffee and feel lot better to proceed to work… This shows how important it is to have a nice friendly smile and wonderful service.. thanks you made my day.

Amazing coffee and quick and friendly service! Happily paid the extra $1 over a Mickey d’s dishwater coffee.

My husband & I called in for a cuppa and an Amazonian smoothie - both were perfect . We sat & watched Mikayla serve at least 6 other customers, she was so friendly, engaging, efficient and she provided excellent customer service to everyone from beginning to the end, complete with the offer of a cookie and smile. We will MOST DEFINITELY come back again & again.
