Oat milk latte was the best. Plenty of seating area inside some outside. Limited parking space available in church parking lot.

Cool spot to work out of super cozy. Coffee taste good and I love they place a coconut cookie on top of the coffee cup. Tried a vanilla latte and my sister got a tiramisu coffee which was really flavorful. Going to try something else from their menu next time I drop by

Nice little coffee shop but I do wish there was more inspiration from the church/faith in the decor and atmosphere. The lighting is a little strong. But the coffee is very delicious and love the little cookie you get as a cute bonus!

Awesome little coffee shop under St. Paul Church. It's a different but very amazing place. Coffee here is delicious, and their lattes, ice coffee, and tea's are all very good. They have a chapel next door with all the stain glass. Will be coming back again soon.
