“ Cozy, cool, creative. I love the mix of music, tasty treats, and eclectic decor. The seating is is well placed. It is perfect for a rainy day. I like the no Wi-Fi or laptops concept to get people reconnecting offline. It was exactly what I needed to finally get out a piece of writing I've felt stuck on for days. It flowed pen to paper because I didn't have other distractions But I did pull up my data so I could write this review while I'm here. I like the mix of people this place attracts. Everyone seems appreciative of this little sanctuary that takes you away and reinspires you to get back out and face the world as if renewed. It was a great stop over for me. The owner seems to make an effort to connect with each customer, which is nice to see. ”
