Food is great and service is super friendly! Avia especially was very kind. For the summer specials, the banana pudding iced matcha latte summer special was a perfect sweet treat, while the Martha Stewart's passionfruit green tea Palmer was refreshing and not too sweet.

The best cafe ambience in Princeton by far. Their drinks and treats are nice, but loved their indoor aesthetic. I loved their hazelnut latte and crème brûlée lemon curd croissant. This is one of my favorite places to hang out at by campus.

I ordered an everything croissant, a Caesar wrap and maman’s almond croissant latte. This is my second visit here, never disappointed.
