This place is an amazing coffee shop...with wine available. One of my favorite new coffee shops in the Pearl. It is located inside of Emma Hotel. There is plenty of outdoors sitting. Not too busy so it is a great place to meet for business, or just a moment for yourself.

Enjoyed the coffee and toffee rice crispy treat. Great selection of snacks, drinks and many other miscellaneous items. There's a section of beers and I found the one I enjoyed while in Japan. Sandwiches were a bit underwhelming for the price. There's outdoor and indoor seating. Great for small groups.
