How this is written: we run the full set of recent Google reviews through AI to pull out what guests consistently say — including the complaints, which is why there's a downsides list rather than only the good bits. It's rewritten as new reviews come in, so it describes the hotel as it is now, not as it was whenever someone last got round to writing a paragraph about it. Read the reviews yourself on Google Maps.

amazing flat white! the milk was frothed to perfection and my coffee art was gorgeous. they have so many fun flavored drinks and syrups- most i haven't seen at other coffee places before. the aesthetic is all soft toned wood, and floras. super cute and cozy. this is the perfect on-the-go stop!! cant wait to drink my way through the menu!

Cute and so chill. Close enough to Union Station to be convenient to get to, yet far enough away to be quiet and relaxed. Great seating, amazing misters to keep you cool, fast service, incredible Ube Matcha and delicious soft serve.

Every option on the menu is intriguing. The rosemary honey affogato is delicious! I recommend getting cold foam with the ube matcha, though. (or blueberry) Looking forward to stopping here every time before/after my train ride.
