Had to check out this gem since I don’t find too many black owned coffee shops.. and it didn’t disappoint. The chorizo burrito is delicious! I also got a sandwich to see how the turkey sausage was and it was seasoned to perfection. I expected an earthy/tart taste (how some organic coffee shops are) but the latte was easy drinking. Made with cereal milk! I typically prefer my coffee slightly sweet but the latte was so well balanced. Reasonable prices and filling food. Definitely coming back.”
