I was a little doubtful about how it was made or what ingredients were used, but believe me—it's amazing. If only I could bring a gallon of it home with me!

A staff member mentioned their Mermaid Magic drink, and I decided to try it just because of the name. However, it could be called anything and it would still be delicious. I highly recommend the Mermaid Magic drink—it's a creamy, bold, and subtly sweet blend that coffee and cold brew lovers will treasure. I even came back two days later to buy a half-gallon to take home for the work week. Additionally, they're extremely dog-friendly, which is something we dog owners really appreciate!

I highly recommend trying it. This is hands down the best coffee I’ve ever had, and I’m confident the other flavors and choices are just as amazing!

I definitely recommend the iced flip flop—it’s a latte blended with peanut butter and chocolate. Just a note: breakfast items such as bagels are available only on Fridays and Sundays.
