Such a welcome addition to the neighborhood! Over the course of the pandemic, this block has been getting progressively sadder and more run down. This chic little Cafe/shop, owned by a Harlem native (who i chatted with on my first visit s few days ago), brightens up the street. Really cute branding, just in bed of a more noticable sign from the outside, which I'm sure is forthcoming. I've been three times in three days, I'm just so happy you've moved in! Lattes are great, pastries beautiful, and the products for sale are lovely. We bought everything we could justify this morning just to support the new addition to Hamilton Heights. Hooray for the Oma! Welcome welcome!

Great coffee and great spot in Hamilton Heights. Prices are average for coffee in Manhattan, and the atmosphere is so cute. Definitely a place to hang out with a friend. My first time here I was asked to not eat anything purchased outside (so just be aware of that).

Very cute new Black owned coffee shop and retail store in Hamilton Heights. I swung by today and had a rose milk latte with a vanilla filled donut - both were delicious. The barista named Talia was very kind and welcoming. It’s a small space but I definitely plan to stop by again.

A different type of chai than I have had before. Stronger on 1 spice (unknown) than the rest, but I like it. I recommend the Croissant cinnamon bun hybrid. It's lighter in texture without all sugary frosting on top; a personal preference of mine. The owner also sells a product line that grabbed my attention. I definitely keep it in mind.

Their pastries are really good! They have good selection of vegan milk. I tried the chai latte it was way too sweet for me personally, but I will be back for coffee and pastries.
