A cute little cafe right on the edge of campus. Food is perfect, service is friendly, and atmosphere is clean and comfortable. We had their almond milk latte, berry smoothie, banana Nutella crepe and Monte Cristo crepe. We were ravenous so food didn't make the shot but it was simply delicious The message on my coffee cup was a nice added touch, starting my day with blessing and goodness.

Went when it was super busy on a Saturday. The lady at the front greeted me with a smile and their service was speedy for how busy they were. You could tell they were doing their best and working hard. Coffee was fire and food was good.

I've been looking for THIS! A cute, privately owned, privately operated coffee shop. One that I could work from, come to enjoy a different scenery, eat good food. It's here and the name is so friggin cute!

Stopped at this shop on our way to charlotte. I absolutely loved the set up. The coffee, smoothie and sandwiches etc were good. The lady seemed a bit reserved but maybe she doesn’t like much small talk lol. If I’m ever passing through again. I’ll be sure to stop by again.

I got a plain iced latte and the avocado toast. The latte was delicious. The avocado toast is as tasty as it looks! Prices were very reasonable. Also, it came out quick. The gentleman taking my order was sweet!

It's a shame this is my first time coming here since moving to Wingate in 2021! The food was phenomenal! My husband had the Monte Cristo crepe and I had the tiramisu crepe. Both were delicious and so were the coffee and Italian soda! The atmosphere is quiet and relaxing, perfect for a quick bite.

Hugo was awesome and helped us get what we needed. One of us had a food restriction and they were easily able to accommodate. Also, Hugo helped correct a small issue quickly and with a smile on his face. I got the Bruschetta Crepe, which was very tasty. My partner got the avocado toast with extra veggies.
