My John’s Italian Wrap and Turtle Iced Coffee were delicious! I didn’t even get a picture bc I was so ready to eat it lol I was not expecting such a large coffee for that price!! Amazing!

Definitely not a nice deli vibe to sit in unless you go on the patio outside the chaotic boxes and disorganization inside. Food and sandwiches are great though.

That said, sadly, based on our three visits, this is one of of the most overrated places in Germantown. Put another way, this place is probably great for the average Germantown palette, but pales against really good coffee and breakfast places. The coffee drinks are average at best and not nearly to the quality you can find in other places such as City State, Belltower, Comeback and Jo-Jo's, for example. Frankly, if I can make a better latte at home it is not worth buying one there. The breakfast burrito was bland and the pastries just average. Full disclosure: while we have been there three times, it has been over three years since our last visit. Again, I really wish I could rate this place higher, and make it a regular stop, but the ratings given are not indicative of the quality we experienced. That said, your results may vary and you should try for yourself to make up your own mind as I think locally owned business deserve our support. I may return for another visit to see if things have changed and if so I will adjust my review.
