The Green Mango Boost Smoothie with protein is absolutely amazing and incredibly refreshing. I'm just about to take a bite of the wild blueberry scone, hold on a moment... Okay, I just did. Wow! I hope you can appreciate this moment like I am right now. UPDATE: I returned and picked up a gluten-free chocolate energy bar for those good vibes!

The seating is comfortable and the ambiance is pleasant, giving off a very "academic" vibe. The coffee is decent.

This is a great place to get strong coffee. It is also a good place to work a bit. They also have comfy seats where you can relax with a nice cup of espresso or other coffee varieties etc.. They seem to have smoothies too. Espressos go up to double triple quadruple etc.
