I absolutely love this coffee shop! It’s an ideal spot for a quick break after grocery shopping next door. The ambiance is warm and inviting, and the staff is incredibly friendly.
Although I’m not a coffee enthusiast, I can’t deny the allure of their coffee. There’s something about the way they craft each cup that I find irresistible. But while I’m a fan of their coffee, I must admit that their empanadas aren’t my cup of tea. The crust is a bit too thick, but the fillings are delicious.
Now parking can be a challenge but somehow I always find a good spot although it might take some patience.

This cafe is so cute! I love the aesthetic and its location (right next to Trader Joe’s) because I can grab a coffee right after grocery shopping without having to drive elsewhere. I got a small hot mocha with oat milk. It’s not super sweet which I enjoy. I didn’t get food this time, but will try it out on my next visit. However, it all looked delicious. The idea of having a free library fits the cafe so well. I’m all for free things (I mean who isn’t? ) but a friendly reminder to not abuse it. I adore small community things like that and would love to enjoy it long term. I highly recommend checking this place out! Service & drinks 10/10!

I forgot to take a picture of the empanadas because they were so good I couldn’t stop got the ham and cheese and the breakfast empanada – SO GOOD! Soft on the outside and warm in the center. They also sell alfajores and they were perfect! Got a hot and cold latte and they were both perfect it’s right next to Trader Joe’s so I’ll be hitting this spot before every shopping spree!
EDIT: Went back and grabbed some pictures to add to my review!

10/10 always recommend this place. Go try it- it’s that simple.
Our favorites are breakfast, beef, ham & cheese, spinach, chorizo, and all of them. Coffee is so good. I always get a latte and it hits every time.

Fantastic coffee so tasty. Empanadas delicious. Cool arty atmosphere. Nice view of the trader Joe’s parking lot. Lots of comfy chairs and such. Yep still delicious

I came here for a light brunch on a Saturday, around 1:30PM.
I had seen this cafe a few times before, but had never been in before. But I was looking for something quick and filling, as well as an early afternoon caffeine fix.
The seating area is relatively small, with maybe seating for 20. There was also a small corner with leather couches and a piano.
I placed an order for 4 empanadas (beef, chicken, mushroom, and spinach), and a latte + cappuccino.
The empanadas were preheated, sitting in a warmer box near the counter. Since we came closer to the end of their operating hours (they close at 2:30pm), there were a few types of empanadas that were either sold out or would need to be baked, which would result in a 15-20 minute wait on those. I opted to get some of the available ones instead of having to wait.
Soon after I got the empanadas, the barista also finished up our drinks. If you dine in the cafe, the coffee is served to you in ceramic cups with art done using the steamed milk.
The empanadas were flaky and rich in flavor, and they definitely don’t skimp on the filling. Each empanada also had a clever design, where a letter or two was worked into the dough of the empanada, to show what the filling inside was (IE – a “B” on their beef empanadas). Their coffee was also well brewed, and well balanced.
All in all, this was a gem of a find, and I will definitely return whenever possible.

We ordered online ahead of time, so we got our order practically the moment we arrived, and it was delicious! I was also grateful to get a splash of almond milk for my coffee from the barista; her and the rest of the staff we encountered were warm and obliging. And the new location— sooo much roomier inside than their former spot, and the decor made the experience all the more pleasing. Consider us soon-to-be regulars here— we’re completely won over!!!!

Got a bunch of empanadas to try, and the nitro cold brew. Felt that everything was decent, fresh, and good quality. Can’t say any of the empanadas stood out compared to each other. I actually think the vegetarian ones may have tasted the best.
Cold brew was decent too, but not too memorable. Overall a cool place, trying a fun concept. The staff was very nice and the interior was clean and welcoming. It is a good stop for a snack if you’re in the neighborhood.

So glad this place was able to get a bigger space to expand their business! The space had a cozy feeling and the empanadas were delicious as usual. Super cute space and they also added some new empanadas to the menu including beer! P

So glad they have a new spot! Conveniently by TJs! I tried their empanadas in their old spot and wasn’t too happy about their crust but now… their crust is lighter, less dense, and more flaky. The fillings were hot and well made and well seasoned. I loved their mushroom empanada and also their staff recommended a favorite: Fugazetta which is caramelized onion oregano and mozzarella. Yum. So glad I tried it. Capaccino was perfectly strong =) simple sarah coffee w cinnamon was lovely. also got a bit of work done on their wifi, comfy couch, and lounge tunes! I Will be back!
