The maple cinnamon iced latte is one of the many delicious coffees I’ve had here! This coffee shop is a favorite weekend stop for me. Good coffee, food, and service, and the outdoor seating is a nice option even on cool days.

Update: I've been there a few times now and everyone is super sweet especially if you go at a less busy time and get to chat with the baristas. They're all really cool people. Coffee and food is always great, ofcourse. It was my first time and I had a great experience. My coffee was delicious and my barista was incredibly nice. He had really cool glasses too.

The food is good and affordable and the coffee is very good and they have a bunch of flyers with like different community events and you can work remotely, which is really nice. Good mix of seasoning too. Absolute gem

The NICEST peeps were working today (Alex and the guy with the tattoo eyebrows)! They were friendly, kind, smiling, fun, and went above and beyond from a customer service perspective ☺️ This was in sharp contrast to a different person who works there (on other days I’ve gone in) that always seems downright miserable. I don’t understand why you’d work in a coffee shop if you don’t like people or making coffee? In any case, it’s the sweet folks that keep me coming back!

I go almost every day, and it’s always a positive experience! Baristas are friendly and skilled, and coffee is excellent. Food is fresh and tasty, and good variety. They play great music too, and I love running into neighborhood friends and having an impromptu chat. You’re the best, friends. ❤️

Another hidden gem. The latte and cappuccino was super yummy. I loved that one of the workers was singing Mariah Carey and she thought no one was looking but she was getting it. The food was good, I just wish the salad was bigger, but no doubt it was very good. Nonetheless it was great, I love the two layers of this place and how low key it was.

Best macchiato I've had yet. Their espresso is extremely tasty. There's not a ton of seating but their coffee and pastries are delicious!

Always terrific quality coffee, service, and atmosphere. Staff goes above and beyond, and it's such a welcoming place. Don't sleep on their food case either! Delish :)

I want to like this coffee shop so badly, but the staff aren’t welcoming or friendly. They seem annoyed if you have any questions, which is frustrating when you’re new in town and trying to find a new regular shop. The coffee is great & the biscuits are delicious! But I feel so awkward & unwelcome whenever I’ve come here to try it out again.

Had a lovely time working from home this afternoon at JVG. I ordered a cappuccino which turned out fluffy and delicious. Staff was welcoming and the atmosphere provided a calm and productive atmosphere. The playlist was great too :)

Extremely limited seating. But hey, you don't come here for the atmosphere. You come for the coffee. And their coffees are excellent. Iced or hot, doesn't matter. Enjoy!
