💡 Tips before you go
- Ask for oat milk or almond milk substitutions as the default dairy-free option is rarely stocked.
- Order your latte ahead of the line to secure a seat at the counter before the morning rush hits.
- Save room for their house-made cookies, which are baked fresh and often run out by mid-afternoon.
