“ Best organic coffee in town! I love coming here, as they offer friendly service and exceptional breakfast and lunch such as sandwiches and pastries. It’s a great place to relax with friends, work on a project, or enjoy a great coffee. It’s worth sitting out front on the patio if it’s free. So nice! ”
“ This is my wife’s review, as she and her sister visited during their short stay in Cobourg. I always will support the local coffee shops while travelling. My sister and I popped in for a beverage. I got a chai latte which was fabulous! My sister just got a tea, but the show stopper was the date square! Made by the gentleman behind the counter! The best I have ever had! This place has what you would expect from a small town coffee shop. Small crowd, all chatting amongst themselves. Nice old building feel. Great spot and would go back again! Check it out! ”
“ The human bean, a coffee shop that’s been around for years. Walk in, “large black?”, pay, leave. A fantastic and quick visit, to set me up for a great day! ”
“ I'm always glad to find an espresso joint open when I'm in small towns. The owner/barista is not exactly chatty, but hey, it's 7am on a holiday Monday. The espresso is a nice balanced roast and my macchiato was made, coincidentally, just the way they do at my local shop with a big pile of foam like a meringue. Mmm. I really feel like I'm on holiday now. ”
“ One of the things I love most about this spot is the familiarity. Not sure of the owner's name but every time I come in I order essentially the same thing (iced matcha latte w oat milk and usually a BLT bagel. Both are super delicious btw) which he knows when I come in, sometimes he even catches the oat milk when I forget! Very reasonable prices in general but especially for the quality. Loved this place for years and will continue my support (: ”
“ Stopped in yesterday to pick up a few baked items to take home. Cute little place that feels dated in a charming way. The guy behind the counter was pleasant, service was fast but there was only 1 customer at a table. There wasn’t a lot of selection, but we enjoyed the date square and the coconut raspberry tart. ”
“ Great coffee and a great atmosphere. Staff is really nice. Nice change from chain coffee places. Try their bagels with cream cheese. They make home made cream cheese and it is amazing. Best cream cheese I had in a long time. ”
“ Such a cute place. We came here after spending some time on the beach. Service was friendly and prompt. My boyfriend had the Irish cream coffee and I had the iced coffee. Very pleased they had the almond milk option available. Definitely looking forward to coming back. ”
