  What a surprise. I feel like I walked into Portland Oregon. I love how there’s more and more of these third wave coffee shops. Starbucks and Peet’s are great but these are even better. Keep up the good work, I hope to see them do well!

  Frank is one of the nicest coffee shop owners I've met, and I've met quite a few. Academic uses only top-quality ingredients in their coffees, and you can tell-everything from the chai to the cappuccino is delicious. This is one of my favorite spots to hang out - thanks, guys!

  Gem of a coffee shop in downtown San Jose. They took an old, deserted laundromat and turned it into a destination for well-crafted coffee drinks that make you truly appreciate the range of flavors possible within coffee (Cascara cold brew, for example --- brewed with tea made from the skin of coffee fruit). The staples are also consistent and delicious. I usually get the regular cold brew or latte. They have a rotating selection of locally baked fresh pastries. They also provide coffee options for events (cold brew in bulk) and sometimes have events hosted in the space. In addition to the drinks and pastries provided by friendly staff, the space is also well-designed, from the playful mural to the solid wood custom tables throughout. Bathroom has a changing table, too! 👌

  Cute little coffee shop with minimalist style. Good pastries and coffee. Table space is in limited supply though.

  Bright, new, little coffee shop in downtown Oakland. Modern, tiled, more minimalist design. Great coffee, friendly service. Limited space for seating. They do have outside seating though as well. Overall, great place.
