Great service, nice selection of coffee and great pastries, and their Biscotti is to die for. Highly recommend you give them a try. PATRONIZE & SUPPORT ArrivaDocle DURING THIS ROUGH TIME!

My favorite coffee shop of all. High-quality Colectivo coffee, nice selection of baked goods, plus seasonal soups and sandwiches. If you can snag an apricot scone fresh from the oven, youll be in heaven.

This is just a nice place for locals to gather for something light to eat, a cup of coffee, or a cup of tea. Far and Away the best gelato in town. A great place for bike riders to sit and rest for a bit. It just a friendly comfortable hang out sort of place.

Great local coffee shop run by a friendly staff that knows your name. Try a frittata sandwich or grab one of the freshly baked scones before they run out! My only complaint is how popular this place is on the weekends, especially in the summer with the cyclists the line gets long (and a bit...sweaty).

A nice space with many outlets and free street parking. Food is decent. Sadly it closes early in the day, so dont come for a late-night study session. Can also be busy during the day.

This is a wonderful neighborhood coffee shop. For those of you who want something more meaningful and delicious than a corporate franchise, I suggest you give this place a shot! Its comfortable, sunny, friendly and has fantastic coffee.

This is a popular place for cyclists on Saturdays. The coffee is decent. The staff are friendly. They cater to their customers. Having many cyclists, they went so far as to add carpeting by the door and register for those who wear cycling cleats.

Foods ok but takes forever (15 minutes with no one else in store) and coffee and tea too hot to drink for 20 minutes. Love local, want to support, but you make it hard!

Tasty food and coffee, friendly staff. Great at handling large orders when I’m getting coffee for a group of people. I could wish the prices were lower, but I know it’s an expensive part of town.

It’s really a shame when you are served inferior food and after taking one bite and asking for a replacement of something else please.... you are denied and told it won’t be replaced because you ate it! Lol this place needs to go. It’s not even reasonable. I am not a person who does this. This simple pastry tasted like dough, probably not cooked enough. We purchased 4 coffees and 2 pastries. Read my other reviews. The nerve of this establishment makes it unworthy of remaining in this small friendly community.

This place is really cozy and the foods reasonably priced. Its got a really low-key vibe---good place to get work done. My only complaint is that they constantly play muzak. After a couple of hours, it make you feel like youre lost in some nightmare level of sonic the hedgehog. I feel bad that the employees constantly have to listen to guitar synth presets over drum machines, day-in, day-out. From the broad angle, however, I love going here. The gelato kicks A$$.

The cold brew coffee here is nice. Their fresh baked pastries are flakey and enjoyable. There isnt much in the way of outside seating as youre right on the sidewalk, which can be annoying. Their wifi is strong and reliable.

Review №39

Was very unhappy one. The coffee had no taste and the miniature ice cream cup sounded like having an ice cream that came from heaven! The ice cream was average and did not worth the money we spent. Felt it was a rip off of every sense of the word.The coffee may have been made the day before and was heated and serviced the day we were there!
