Dropped in quality, I’ve lived here long enough, and have been even longer aficionado of cappuccinos, to know I used to have a better cappuccino in sidecar than what I had today. Hard to tell though, was it; 1. The person who made it for me? 2. The espresso machine? 3 poor training (No training!!!) ? Idk but not happy in giving them 3 stars for average. A little too hot too, THAT can very much be controlled and dialed in. Update: 3/9/23 Oh my gosh night and day improvement on the cappuccino 🥳👏👏👏 I mean it. It’s so lovely!!! Refer to my short video. Oh my gosh, you can’t do audio on Google reviews? All right here’s my wall text besides the obvious the latte art was on point I had already drank a sip of it so you know I kind a messed up with it but beyond that the micro foam on the steamed milk! awesome! the taste of the espresso with the milk? great!! two thumbs up! THAT. Is worth going back to more often!

I got the hot chocolate, it wasn't spectacular but it was okay. The atmosphere was nice and was a great place to meet clients at though!

This place is such a gem. Their chocolate chip scones - served warm! are outstanding. I've never had such a good one. And their iced drinks are always on point, too. Highly recommend!

This feels like the hidden gem of sidecars. Lots of tables and space to work. Same fantastic menu as other side cars. Drive thru was busy but moved pretty quickly.

Cute little stop. This place is unique, cute atmosphere and a good view of the street. It’s Quiet enough to study here and to have a nice conversation. They have lots of choices but a few things like sizes are a little odd. Which is normal for a smaller coffee shop. Our coffees were great and came out drinking temp.

Coffee is amazing! Unfortunately the wait times are 20-30 min + for the drive through.

Excellent service, coffee, and food. One of the many surprises for my work trip from AZ. I also bought the Kick-start espresso whole bean to enjoy at home and it was delicious. Tons of Crema!

Overrated. Coffee tasted very odd. almost as if they barely use any of the flavoring. The only thing that was good was the cinnamon roll...

So the place has nice staff but sizing is very strange. Who has ever heard of only selling a medium size for tea. It’s time for people to stop treating us tea drinkers as second class citizens. Not everyone likes the bitter taste of coffee. Some of us are civilized and prefer tea. Sell larger sizes of this drink and treat us all fairly. Otherwise this is a nice place and I’d visit again
