This place is my go to for fresh chocolate croissants. They are so delicious here. Tried the beef kimchi bowl and it was SO GOOD! So flavorful and was the best meal for a post workout. Also got the strawberry matcha which was delicious. The customer service was also top tier. The ladies were so nice and accommodating as I wasn’t a fan of my first drink but they suggested the strawberry matcha which I see why. Very impressive!

I’m not a sweets person so I’ve only been going here for the lime tea refreshers(which are bussin) but OMGGGG the lunch here is insane. The beef bowl had so much flavor and the beef was so tender. I was shocked a pasty place could have such good food. Can’t wait to come back and try the rest!

Cute coffee shop conveniently located in Fishtown. The coffee is ok, I’ve had better. The pastries are very good, and they sell some interesting things. I recommend just going for the food. It is clean throughout. There is a good amount of seating. The employees were kind and helpful. The prices are average for this area. Limited parking is available.

— update: Emily is the best!! Super sweet and helpful, she gave us recommendations. And she came over to give us our order ❤️❤️ we got 3 strawberry matchas and did a mix of oat and almond milk in them! very milky — the strawberry puree is great! we also tried the matcha muffin with raspberry jelly. yummy combo and much better warm! — My partner and I were starstruck by the strawberry matcha we got from their new center city location — and apparently that barista has been working at the fishtown location for 3 years so we thought we'd be given a real treat! It might be a hit or miss depending on the day. 🍵 Food: We were unfortunately a little disappointed. The flavor was pretty mild — I thought my taro drink was alright, it was more taro forward than anything. The matcha flavor was just too light the color was very light green. Suggestion to the team to also store the matcha in amber/aluminium containers since it degrades in UV. The croissants were apparently made in-house every morning, even though it had the honeycomb inside, the texture felt stale and not flaky or buttery - more like when you leave a piece of bread out. What we got: - Strawberry matcha latte with oat milk

This coffee shop is so cute, and the pastries are absolutely beautiful. I tried the mango cheesecake and another dessert (I think it was hazelnut or coffee flavored), and the mango cheesecake was the standout. The mango flavor was rich, fresh, and perfectly balanced. You could really taste it in every bite. I also ordered the pork rice bowl, which was delicious and felt like true comfort food it was warm, satisfying, and well seasoned. Lastly, I had a strawberry matcha latte, and it was honestly one of the best matchas I’ve had. The only downside is that the serving size is a bit small. Overall, it’s a great place to work or grab lunch. Seating is somewhat limited, but customers rotate, so you can usually find a spot without waiting too long.
