“Such a great little coffee shoppe tucked in the Woodlands on Grograns drive. I'm diggin' this quiet little corner, cluttered with trees and a few stores lined up together. The air felt & smelled crisp and it totally was nostalgic of some sort of northern winter. Wanting to visit the local bookshop next time.
What I liked most about this coffee shoppe? It's charm and characteristic. That's the first thing I noticed upon stepping in. A bit of light and warmth all around, and a staircase that leads you to the second floor. Ample seating upstairs with a few tables, couch and charging outlets.
They have a few unique flavoured drinks this time of the year. My favorite being the eggnog latte.. but make it hot. I look forward to revisiting and trying different items off the menu, in particular, their seasonal products.
It was a great local experience at third gen coffee, the staff was friendly and the drinks were crafted with love. I totally look forward to revisiting if ever in the area.”
