“ Love stopping by for my coffee here. They are really nice and receive good service from them. ”
“ I was really happy to hear this popular Little Village spot opened up another location here. The coffee is amazing and definitely fills a need for an area that really only has Dunkin and Starbucks. The food is very delicious. Maybe not as good as the Christiana Ave location but very close. The portions are very large as well. Even though this location is more of a to-go spot, the room its in has a lot of seating if you want to eat there. All in all, this place is definitely worth a visit if you want a great breakfast and don’t want to deal with the crowds at the Little Village location. ”
