My wife and I like boutique coffee joints, but we have had issues finding one in Union County we like until now! Coffee: This is about the coffee for us and it’s really good! It’s smooth and tasty. I don’t usually like my coffee bitter, so the white mocha is perfect for me. They can make it extra sweet but it was a bit too sweet. Chai: Any time my wife talks about chai, she is comparing it to her favorite chai from college. She compared it to that chai! I even liked it and I don’t like chai! Food: My wife I have tried the breakfast sandwiches only, and they were pretty good. I had a bacon, egg, and cheese on sourdough. She had a turkey, egg, and cheese on GLUTEN FREE BREAD! I don’t know if they use separate grills, so there might be cross contamination, but my wife had no issues with it. Atmosphere: The location in a restored gas station is genius! The soft chairs right in the entrance are perfect and there is outside seating when the weather is good. This place is popular, so do be prepared for a possible long wait if you go in during peak hours Staff: They are fairly friendly. They normally have a smile, repeat your order back to you, get your order to you quickly, and check on you if things are taking too long. They consistently stay open and make quality drinks and food. This is the best coffee in Union County and the best chai in the South!

Recently found this little place. BEST iced chai latte in NC I have had. I get it with almond milk and cinnamon on top. I’ve lived in Monroe for a few years and been looking for a chai like this. Also, I have tried their fruit bowls and the breakfast sandwich with gluten free bread. Everything has tasted great! Also pictured is a breakfast sandwich with regular bread. So excited to have found this place!
