My favorite comfort spot near campus! It has the best atmosphere for hanging out or getting laptop work done. The matcha latte is consistently amazing (my absolute favorite), and their pastries are always fresh and delicious. Highly recommend if you need a productive workspace or just a great cup of matcha.
