Their baked goods are always fantastic, and I enjoy their sodas and seasonal apple cider. The service tends to be amazing, though I did get snapped at once by one of the employees for not speaking loud enough when ordering.

Found this place a block away and we couldn?t be happier! The Universe works infabulous ways! First of all the customer service Myles provided was OUTSTANDING! What a delightful person. We took hisrecommendations and had the Vanilla Blossom(which has house made lavender syrup). I know- I know- ITS AMAZING!!! OMG! And aChocolate Cherry coffee w almond syrup. Both are HEAVEN. Not to mention the space has a very eclectic yet welcoming vibe. Whenever I?m in Lawrence- I will regularly choose The Java Break for a coffee treat! Myles gave a few other recommendations oflocally owned coffee shops- will try them as well!

However, the staff often seem irritated by my presence. read more The drinks they offer are quite good, and their smoothies and scones are enjoyable as well.
