Really awesome stop for anything from a snack to a full meal. Their Matcha coconut drink is bitter, as Matcha should be, but well balanced by the sweetness of the coconut. Gonna be bringing my friends back here for sure!
Neat little shop with a few seats. Great menu. Friendly service. Nice decor. Food and beverage options were plenty. I wish we had a shop like this in NH!
For someone who works in Downtown, this is an amazing option for a quick snack. Right in the heart of Downtown between both universities. All ingredients are fresh and flavourful, staffs are super friendly and helped me with their options! I highly suggest you give this spot a try!!!
