What customers say

I stopped by for a cold brew, the manager was so incredibly kind and helpful and told me about the company and how they are expanding and are roasting in a partnership with Big Shoulders Coffee. House made cold brew was great and smooth, would recommend this location and their beans!

Really great coffee shop. The dudes working there were pretty cool and it’s cool to see veterans working in a veteran business. I hope they open more locations!

★★★★★ — Shawn, 2026-02

I love it when my dollars go not only to supporting small business, but also veterans! Coffee with a cause is something I can always get behind. The horchata latte was delicious, the atmosphere was bright and comfortable, and the staff was friendly and made a great latte!
