Looks like Pullman has a coffee shop again. It's been delightful coming here recently and feels warm yet modern with the renovations they did. And how do I know it's a coffee shop again? Many of the local Pullman people I use to see at all hours of the day at other places, are now here. It's been like an unspoken reunion and it delights my heart. The coffee is good, fairly consistent, and tastes the best right when they open.

Still good, but I feel like it's missing some of the vibe/charm it had when it was smaller. Where have all the plants gone? It seems much more sparsely planted than before, and it's very loud. Also, their marketing and website upkeep has dropped off the face of the earth - I used to be able to check in the morning and know exactly what pastries they had, with pictures (important to know when you're only there for the gluten free stuff). Nowadays, it's nearly impossible to find easily accessible and accurate information. I have to scroll through toooons of merch listings on the website, with food items intermixed, just to find out that their one gluten free pastry is sold out. However, it never seems to be reflective of what they have in store, because if I call, they list completely different pastries. Maybe they just don't care because business is booming regardless? Anyway, I still like their food and drinks (especially the homemade syrups) and I find it to be a nice place to study if you can actually find a table.

High quality, staff is quick kind professional, reasonably priced, amazing food, beautiful interior which was clean and enough space. Bonus: WiFi and room to study! It's small and calming. There's a few bar seating areas, some decent sized tables, and a cute bonus room to the side that offers good lighting and a little more quite which is great for studying and reading. Not your average cafe because of unique items like they sell chocolate torte, mushrooms, quiche, etc. Not expensive. Definitely a need to visit place.
