This is truly the ideal coffee shop: excellent food and drinks with lots of choices, tons of space, and a great community gathering place. Excellent matcha with several flavors available. Earthy with subtle bitterness that does not overpower. Their matchas tend to lean more earthy and bitter, so ask for extra flavoring if you prefer a more balanced taste between bitter and sweet. I don't typically like more earthy matchas but this one does it so well that it bypasses that preference. Their food is also amazing. Make sure to come by on a Friday or Saturday night for their chicken platter special. This is also a fantastic place to meet with friends, go on a date, work or study, or hang out. Very spacious, lots of outlets, good wifi, and a downstairs that includes more seating and a prayer area. All around this is the ideal coffee shop with excellent drinks, good vibes, community gathering place feels, and supporting a local business.
