    I work right in town! It’s too easy to stop there and have them make up a delicious coffee in almost record-time! The food is also incredible. The staff/owners are just too friendly and remember you even if you were in there once 2 months ago.

    Gorgeous spot in a historic building. Charming staff, amazing drinks, and the cookies are absolutely heavenly. I _lovelovelove_ that they advertise being a safe space, too!

    Former Caribou barista here: haven't been to a coffee shop this welcoming, kind, speedy, and accurate in their service in years. Espresso drinks were made perfectly (we had hot one day, and cold the next); kids loved the baked items, and the atmosphere deserves an award. I haven't been to such a cozy coffee shop since Karl's Coffee in Morris (RIP). In a world where we all whine about service being inadequate, this place was so great I want to summer in Annandale every year! Thanks for both of our incredible experiences!!

    Stopped by a few weeks ago but forgot to post the review lol my boyfriend and I stopped by after newly moving to Annandale about a year ago. The coffee was amazing, I got a pumpkin scone and my boyfriend got the flatbread and both things were fantastic! We will be back soon!
