I only pray to become known by name by the staff there some day.

Lovely tea selection, fun popup food selection, nice staff, and apparently (admittedly, not tried) wine selection! Good vibes.

Same for the books but would stay for the vibes. They partnered with Leaves used books and had a lovely curated selection of used vintage books and writing journals. The wine bar was lovely and the lighting and space was incredible. A vibe for sure
