Had my engagement proposal here and the staff and management were very accommodating and helpful. They made the planning stage seamless and the service was exceptional during the event. Highly recommend this location for special events or even regular visits (I first visited with my Girlfriend now Fiancée for our first date and loved their coffees/teas). Also, I’m not much of a dessert fan but their macaroons were amazing and the essence of their flavor profile was captured perfectly! Special shout-out to Izzy who helped facilitate this event while we were there, she was attentive and welcoming to all of the guests.

Although the aesthetics and decor were gorgeous, the food was subpar. The wild mushroom sandwich was a few thinly sliced mushrooms with no seasoning, the quiche was borderline burnt, and the matcha was powdery and not mixed well. It is a nice place to work, but the food and drinks were definitely overhyped.

This place didn’t feel warm and welcoming. It was my first time trying out this coffee shop. It was pretty busy on a Sunday afternoon, which is great for business! However, the flow was very slow and lackluster. The cashier didn’t greet me, nor did she ask of my preferred size, which I later noticed on my receipt — which in her defense, maybe she was exhausted and burned out.
I observed the operational flow, as I sat and waited 13 whole minutes for an iced mocha and latte. 1 person took the orders, and the other person made the orders. There were also kitchen staff, who apparently only worked in the back. The pace was already slow, but, when the 1 person who was making the orders had to refill the water, pausing the orders, to go to the back kitchen, it made the wait feel even longer!! I stood, watching the ice melt in my cup, waiting for the 1 guy to return, to finish our orders.
Beautiful decor, tight space to wait, and overall slow service (or maybe just on a Sunday afternoon). There was no place to sit (inside or out), so had to take it to-go. All in all, worth checking out, and returning for a better outcome 🙂

The ghost lattes are such a cute idea and they were also very good. We got their matcha latte and chai latte and they were both amazing! It’s also quite a versatile spot. Perfect for brunch & lunch dates, or even just to go study.

The place is beautiful, the service was provided by the waitress Paradise, she is very friendly, and the food I ordered was delicious, Éclair not too sweet, a cappuccino that was also very mild without sugar, and a croissant that was warm and crispy.

I just stopped by here to get a little snack and coffee and I had a great time! Although the coffee is slightly less strong than I would like , the staff is very soft spoken and nice. There was also this guy that was cleaning tables and giving out food at the speed of light and seemed so dedicated to his job! The girl on register got a customer after me with somewhat of an attitude asking for some help and not once did she reciprocate the attitude! Also currently having a raspberry tart with almonds and it’s super duper good! As a barista it’s very refreshing to see other baristas actually like their job. Definitely recommend.

Absolutely love this spot! Cozy atmosphere, friendly staff, and the best raspberry green tea I’ve ever had. The macarons, tomato bisque, and Mon Chéri dessert were all delicious. I even grabbed some treats to go. Highly recommend!!!

The Reading Room is an absolute gem in Downtown Decatur. The vibes are great and the nights they have live music are a must. Paradise is truly the kindest soul and made our night very special!

Very cozy vibes, that’s for sure. It almost feels like you are having a coffee at a library. It could feel slightly small but I didn’t get that perception.
Very attentive staff, willingly offering recommendations.
The smoothies were made out of real fruit and not extra sweet, so that was delicious especially with how warm the weather was that day!
I tried the lemon merengue pastry and it was delicious , totally recommended
