We've seen this cafe a few times and decided to stop by. The place was pretty empty, the only people there was the woman behind the counter, the 3 piece house band, and one guitarist who played a few songs. The two of us were the only paying customers. The green iced tea was good, and the service was good. We sat at a table opposite the band, and the chairs were extremely uncomfortable. We had to leave after an hour because of the uncomfortable chairs. The house band was ok, though their song selection was great, classic rock. They definitely had their volume set low enough that we could carry on a conversation. Very comfortable volume level. The guitarist who played several songs solo was very good. The art on the walls was interesting - I liked it. It was an open mic format, but each player had to pay $10 or buy $10 worth of food, which would be pretty easy as their prices were a bit high. Menu was pretty limited - mostly coffee, tea, smoothies, and a few different sandwiches. I can imagine going back at some point, but I think I may bring a cushion.


Nice quaint shop. Great coffee with a musical motif. They do open mic on the two days a week they are open so it gets some nice atmosphere.
Great music. Comfortable and open to requests to sign along. Very happy, cordial and comfortable place. Open twice per week, Tuesdays & Sundays for a few hours 6:30pm opens both days and only for a couple hours. Worth every minute. You're able to drink alcohol. Wine & beer. Cover charge when you do. Just getting started. I'd like to see them have more publicity. It's a small place next to domino's pizza on 51st & Northern. Family oriented.
Finally got to visit this place. Currently only open 3 days a week for about 3 hours each of those days. Or was smaller inside than I expected and was expecting more lounge type seating with it being a coffee house with live music. We just had coffees and teas stop can't comment on any food they offer. Drinks were all good other than the green tea as it mainly tasted like water but that's always a risk with green tea. They seem to have some house musicians and people can sign up to do sets of 3 songs. Was kind of hard to talk at all as the music is loud and it is a compact space. Was interested and hope to see some expansion of times and offerings as things are getting more back to normal.
This place is just...perfect. I stopped just because I wanted a non-chain coffee on my way home from an errand and was pleasantly surprised that they served breakfast. The woman at the counter helped me pick a coffee and she suggested an iced Carmel macchiato, it was amazing! The decor is modern, it's clean with classy jazz playing. Definitely a good place to reset and unwind. I would definitely come here again.
So I've lived in this neighborhood for 30+ years and have seen many little businesses come and go out of this corner shop at 51st and Northern. So a couple years ago a coffee/sandwich/pastry shop opened up. I've seen post about there food and beverages and general ambiance. Always looked favorable, good reviews and all. So I decided to try it for lunch today. Apon walking in I was greeted by the man behind the counter with "What do you want, just kidding" he says, so right off the bat it was off putting. I should have walked out but I gave it a chance to redeem it self. I ordered there club and a medium pina colada smoothie, 15 dollars, wow, ok it better be the bomb! Even though the sandwich appeared to be a good size, it was mainly bread and very dry and the smoothie was ok but the medium was more like a small, all in all not worth 15 bucks! The only redemption on the place is the decor is cool but not enough to bring me back. Too bad!
We love meeting here. Delicious food/drink; so far not one thing on the menu that's I've tried hasn't been top notch. The service is friendly and efficient. The ambiance is relaxed yet tastefully decorated.
I've been there a handful of times. The food and service have been great and consistent. Their El Corazon Latte is one of a kind! Their Espresso Cubano con Panna is fantastic and their Cold Brew is pretty good. I've also had their paninis; I especially like their Smoked Turkey Pesto. Though I had to wait about 15 minutes for them, it's more than worth it knowing they prepare them fresh and with a nice small salad. Very friendly staff and ownership. And the music they play is relaxing. I'll definitely be back.
