My Half of The Sky Coffee House

My favorite place to meet people for "coffee"!! I usually get loose leaf tea, which is also good. As one not totally informed on all things coffee, I appreciate the little diagrams they have on what some traditional coffee items (americano, cappuccino, etc) actually contain. There's lots of nooks if you want a quiet space. I always love my visits there!!

I am so happy about the mission of this place--glad they care about women who are oppressed around the world and want to support them practically. This is reason enough to go! Definitely a coffee place--I will leave the coffee critiques to the coffee people. As a tea person, I can tell they don't have a very extensive knowledge of tea even though they do loose leaf (brewing temps/times, how to best sweeten it, etc).

Very good coffee shop in downtown Wheaton. There is a cute little store with nice jewelry and other chatchkies when you enter. They serve good coffee and the ambience is cute.

Very nice place and great staff, unfortunately the music is not up to the standard of the service and disturbs while talking or working.

This place is fantastic. Not only do they have fantastic coffee they have delicious food like empanadas and pastries. All sales go to benefit a great cause so your supporting both global and local causes. The shop is also organic and locally-sourced. So overall it's pretty much perfect.

I really liked the atmosphere and the food was excellent!

Fabulous little coffee shop that has a unique vibe. Coffee is good and the atmosphere is even better with nooks and crannies of a hundred year old home to enjoy. Gifts and crafts and pastries round out the offerings for this one if a kind cafe.

Favorite coffee shop.

I was originally leery of this place, but it turned out to be quite good. I enjoyed my horchata latte, and there was a very good selection of coffee and tea beverages both hot and cold to choose from. They also had some very high quality baked goods. Savory empanadas among them, this is a great place to have a snack and a coffee with a friend or find a quiet corner to work.

The reason it gets 5 stars instead of 4 is that the proceeds are supporting very good causes, helping those rescued from trafficking among others. I recommend giving them your custom.

I've been to this lovely place a few times since it opened and every time I walk in there is something new. It's a large coffee/tea house that bakes its own pastries. In addition to several yummy tea varieties, they offer small batch coffee beans and espresso drinks. Taste the beef, egg and cheese or guava empanadas. Several types of dark chocolate bars. Bite size dessert cups. And many beautiful local handmade jewelry, candles, lotions, leather bags and more. I bought a gorgeous pearl cascade necklace for $25.
