Enjoyed my morning with a hot 12 oz Brown Babe (a brown sugar cinnamon mocha - I love a twist on my mochas), a fun pink setting of the coffee shop, and a welcoming owner. Also appreciate that the coffee is affordable without sacrificing quality! How lucky are we to have Tacoma filled with delicious and talented coffee shops like this.
Such an adorable coffee shop! Everything is pink! You can tell the owner is supportive of the community as well! Food was good and drink was yummy. I definitely will be back
Black woman owned. All of the drinks are good and CONSISTENT!!!! New drink specials weekly AND monthly. Options for everyone and anyone. The carrot cake chai -aka BAD BUNNY is so good. They even have a small gift shop section. Really asthetically cute as well for the shop as a whole.
Cutest lil coffee shop in downtown! I've meant to get in here for too long. Just driving by you can tell the place is going to be fun from the pink neon sign and radiating vibes through the window. This is a small coffee shop packed with pink character, fun gift options, and super friendly and helpful staff, and of course delicious beverages. I was in the mood for a step away from my traditional Americano and something with a bit of winter spice so the barista suggested Chai. It was delicious and just the thing. I'm definitely adding this to my regular rotation for coffee shop visits. Give it a try. You can't help but have your mood lifted when you're surrounded by this much pink luv!

First time coming in . The place is too cute. The vibes are great and the owner is really nice . I ordered the Hilltop Club with no onion and pickle on the side . The sandwhich is huge and his the spot . Thank you definitely will ba back.
Love the decor and atmosphere the delicious food and tasty coffee drinks! The service is great! I feel the love every time I go in! Reasonable pricing!
We stopped here before a day of monkeyshine hunting. The coffee and sandwiches were delicious and affordable. I also really appreciate people who don't look annoyed when I ask for changes (white coffee, alternate milk, and I love onion on a blt). Someday, I'll convince a shop to add a Bolt (bacon, onion, lettuce, and tomato) to the menu. My husband and I highly recommend the food and coffee. We'll be back when we can get our schedules to align with the open hours again.
